Information

The original handheld Mario Golf featured RPG elements as well as golf, but not quite to the extent of this version. The RPG sections are this time based on Camelot's own series, Golden Sun - sounds effects, expressions and all.

You choose from a number of characters who have arrived at the Marion Club golf course to take part in the Marion Cup. The usual combination of power bars and split-second timing are used to judge your golf swing on the course as you try and sink the ball into the hole within par.

The RPG elements allow you to make your character strong by winning experience points and increasing abilities of your choice. You can then use this character in 2-on-2 battles. If you're using the Japanese version you can even link-up for multiplayer games using the wireless GBA adapter.
