Mario Golf 64
Released: June 11, 1999
Mario Golf is a sports video game that was developed by Camelot Software Planning (the same developer that previously created Hot Shots Golf for the PlayStation ) and published by Nintendo for the Nintendo 64 . It was released in 1999. In Japan , the Nintendo 64 version is known as Mario Golf 64. In the game, Mario , his friends, and his enemies play golf on a variety of Mario-themed courses.
Players can play as a variety of characters including Mario, Luigi and Princess Peach . The game also included new characters including Harry, Maple, and Charlie. Players can then select from a number of courses which have features adapted to the Nintendo world. Mario Golf is also very easy to play (also known as a "pick up and play" game) as it makes golf very simple, because it does away with many of the complicated real-life aspects of the sport that are found in games like Tiger Woods PGA Tour 2006 . Even though the game is easy to play and simple in appearance, the game's engine is very deep and there are a multitude of variables that can affect a shot, such as wind strength and direction (indicated by a Boo ), rain, characters individual attributes, spin on the ball, relief of the land etc. There are also a great variety of gameplay modes, including speed golf, ring shot, mini golf and skins match. Every character in the game has recorded voice samples which can be used to comment on opponent's shots.
