A series of sports games by Nintendo and Camelot Software Planning starring Mario, Luigi, and the rest of the Mushroom Kingdom gang.Games in the series: Mario Golf (1999) - Nintendo 64, Game Boy Color, Virtual Console, and Nintendo Switch Online. Mobile Golf (2001) - Game Boy Color (Japan only) Mario Golf: Toadstool Tour (2003) - Nintendo GameCube Mario Golf: Advance Tour (2004) - Game Boy Advance Mario Golf: World Tour (2014) - Nintendo 3DS Mario Golf: Super Rush (2021) - Nintendo SwitchCamelot also developed the golf portion of Mario Sports Superstars. Another golf-related Mario game was NES Open Tournament Golf (developed by Nintendo R&D2), known as Mario Open Golf in Japanese, released for the Nintendo Entertainment System. We Love Golf!, another golf game made by Camelot and published by Capcom, was more or less Mario Golf without Mario. The first Hot Shots Golf was also made by Camelot, but for Nintendo's rival Sony. As such, Mario Golf gets some of its DNA from it. During the weekend of July 9th, 2021, Tetris 99 celebrated the release of Super Rush with a limited time theme.At one time, Nintendo of America considered the player character of the original 1984 NES Golf and its 1989 Game Boy port to be Mario, which is reflected in official publications such as Mario Mania and even the Western box art of the latter game. However, Nintendo eventually confirmed in Captain Rainbow that the character is actually Ossan, an obvious Mario Expy whose name is a reference to one of the names Mario was given during the development of Donkey Kong.See also Mario Tennis, another Mario sports series developed by Camelot. | |

Fake Longevity | |
| Mario Golf (Video Game) / int_14184bc7 | comment |
Fake Longevity: Toadstool Tour has one of the most insane examples of this in all gaming when it comes to unlocking the MAX difficulty in the American version. To unlock it, you have to beat every Star Tournament with every character. This makes for a grand total of a whopping 102 Star Tournaments to be won. Understandably, this was completely toned down in the Japanese and European versions (that came out afterwards), where to unlock the MAX difficulty you just have to beat Bowser in his Character Match. Similarly, this requirement was understandably completely axed for future games. Linking Toadstool Tour and Advance Tour has this when it comes to unlocking the Star Courses, you have to play all Character Match, Ring Shot, Shot Practice, Approach Practice, and Putt Practice modes with your transferred character to unlock them, even if you had already done so beforehand with any other character. Super Rush has an example of this in unlocking the Super Star versions of the characters, to do so, you have to get 3000 character points. You get 10 points per hole played, so you need to play 300 holes with every character to unlock their Super Star version. In Super Rush, to unlock new Characters and Special Costumes each month you have to play Online matches and reach A-/135 match points monthly. You get around 10 points per match played so it takes a while. | |

Graceful Loser | |
| Mario Golf (Video Game) / int_191a3673 | comment |
Graceful Loser: In stark contrast to most of the other characters, Diddy's Bogey animation in World Tour has him reacting rather nonchalantly, simply lying down and eating a banana. He does slip on the peel if he Double Bogeys or worse, however. Peach's Bogey animation in Toadstool Tour has her react surprised at first before calmly accepting her loss, in contrast to her Double Bogey animation where she nearly faints in a dramatic fashion. In Super Rush, the failure animations have been greatly toned down compared to previous games, with most characters expressing only mild disappointment. Additionally, at the end of a round, the losers always clap for the winner, even perennial Sore Losers like Wario and Waluigi. | |

Taunt Button | |
| Mario Golf (Video Game) / int_1db493b | comment |
Taunt Button: Pressing the "down" direction on the d-pad while another player is up causes your character to shout something derisive, usually "fore!" This is expanded on in Toadstool Tour and Advance Tour where each character gets four taunts (one for each d-pad direction) and four cheers (A, B, L, and R.) | |

Limit Break: Super Rush introduces Special Shots, which replace Power Shots from previous installments. Each player has a gauge that fills up when sinking putts or collecting coins. When it's full, the player can use their Special Shot. Each character has their own Special Shots which, in addition to being more powerful than a regular shot, has various side effects depending on the character, such as freezing the ground where it lands, knocking opponents balls away, or making opponents balls curve dramatically when they're hit. | |

Early-Installment Weirdness | |
| Mario Golf (Video Game) / int_4f4372e9 | comment |
Early-Installment Weirdness: NES Open Tournament Golf is a realistic golf game. While all games are fairly realistic in their own right, it doesn't have any Mario flair like special shots and Mario themed courses. For the N64 version, which was the first in the series, it had playable normal human characters, which seems rather bizarre when you put them side by side with the more colorful cast of characters from the Mario universe. The concept of having human characters was kept in the GBC and GBA titles Story modes (which revolve around building characters with RPG Elements), but not in Toadstool Tour (though you could transfer the human characters from the GBA game to it), World Tour, or Super Rush. The N64 version is the only installment where Mario, Luigi, and most of their friends are unlockable in single-player mode. Peach and Baby Mario are the only ones who are available from the start in all modes. 64 and its GBC counterpart don't have an option to star characters, which would become a feature in all games starting with Toadstool Tour. While everything in 64 is in 3D, the balls and the hole are sprites. The N64 game was the only one to completely lack original golf outfits for Mario characters, but this would change with the GBC game, in which Mario and Luigi wore golfing outfits, while Peach got a Golf Minidress starting in Toadstool Tour in place of her usual Pimped-Out Dress. By the time of Super Rush, all characters received new, unique Golf uniforms, with Peach's replacing her previous Minidress. The N64 game also had an unique Mini-Golf game where the characters' goal is to sink the ball in Mini-Golf themed courses using only Putters. It hasn't been brought back for any future installments. Some characters (Luigi, Harry, Bowser in 64, Mario in GBC) would actually express disappointment if they achieve par. In subsequent games, all characters (even Bowser) are all quite happy to make par. | |

Particularly dissonant in that two of the enemies, Koopa Troopa and Paratroopa, have been playable characters in the Mario Golf series, with Paratroopa being playable in World Tour itself. | |

Nostalgia Level | |
| Mario Golf (Video Game) / int_56b5a6b7 | comment |
Nostalgia Level: DK Jungle in World Tour is a tremendous love letter to Donkey Kong Country fans. It features a lot of elements from Donkey Kong Country Returns in particular, such as Screaming Statues, Chomps and Barrel Cannons. Not only that, but TNT Barrels, which hail from the original trilogy instead of Returns, are on certain holes, which explode if your ball touches them. All six regular courses from 64 return as DLC in World Tour (though Shy Guy Desert, Yoshi's Island, and Boo Valley were remade into Layer-Cake Desert, Sparkling Waters, and Rock-Candy Mines, all of which originated in New Super Mario Bros. U, respectively). Super Rush features a course based on New Donk City with the layout being the same as the iconic Super Mario Odyssey location, just adapted for golf with tee boxes and greens, as well as Dash Panels to speed characters up during Speed Golf and Jump Panels so characters can jump from building to building in the rooftop holes. | |

Slippy-Slidey Ice World | |
| Mario Golf (Video Game) / int_5914d5dd | comment |
Slippy-Slidey Ice World: Super Rush has two: In the story mode, the upper areas of Bowser Highlands are frozen over. Mr. Blizzards, Freezies, and Snow Pokeys appear on the course, with the former chucking snowballs at the golfers. Outside of story mode, there's Blustery Basin. Certain patches of the fairway are icy, so balls and players skid on it, and there are ice-filled potholes on the course. It also features Snow Pokeys, as well as Cooligans that slide around the course. Instead of rain, the course has occasional blizzards. | |

Dump Stat | |
| Mario Golf (Video Game) / int_5d1eb74d | comment |
Dump Stat: Spin in the GBA handheld version. If you are planning to transfer your characters to the GameCube version however, it is preferable to put at least some points in Spin, but it is still the stat that decays the least out of all the stats in the game, meaning that you can ignore it to an extent and still end up with a decent spin if you level up correctly. | |

Batman Can Breathe in Space: A rather ridiculous example in World Tour, which feature underwater courses. The characters simply play through them as normal with no breathing apparatuses or anything. Lampshaded by bubbles issuing forth from their mouths whenever onscreen. Diddy's eagle animation in World Tour involves him taking off with his jetpack, except he overshoots it and finds himself in planetary orbit. His reaction is more surprised than panicked. | |

Interface Screw: Bowser Jr.'s Special Shot in Super Rush turns the ball into a smoke bomb, covering the area around where it lands in smoke. The smoke removes the icons normally visible over player's balls during Speed Golf, making it harder for opponents to find them. It also removes the flag icon on the shot meter that shows where the hole is, making putting more difficult. | |

Secret Character | |
| Mario Golf (Video Game) / int_6bff99d4 | comment |
Secret Character: The N64 version was notable for having semi-secret characters (including, among others, Mario and Luigi) not be available in the Single Player Mode unless you defeated them in Get Character Mode. It also had completely secret characters in Maple, Donkey Kong, Bowser, and in the case of the North American and European versions, Metal Mario. The first two handheld versions included the champion characters and some prominent Mario series characters (Luigi, Waluigi, and Bowser in the GBA version and Wario in both versions). In fact, the only characters who avert this in both games are Mario, Peach, Yoshi, DK, and Baby Mario. Connecting the GBC or GBA versions of Mario Golf to the N64 version for the former and the GameCube version for the latter also adds four human characters to the N64 version, and the two human characters (male and female) to the GameCube version: the characters that you go through the respective games' Story Mode with. As there is no current way of replacing the Transfer Pack method, you cannot unlock those characters in the VC version of the N64 game (unless you use a hacked save). Partially justified in that these characters stats depended on how you had leveled them up in the GBC versions. The GCN version lets you add up to four versions of both the male and female character though, they will be differentiated through Palette Swaps. | |

Denser and Wackier: 64 and Color, especially the latter, are somewhat realistic portrayals of golf, albeit with outlandish hole layouts (especially in later courses). Starting with Toadstool Tour, however, courses start to have hazards, some of them Mario-themed, that you won't find on real golf courses. In World Tour, the items add to the zaniness, as do the character-specific skills in Super Rush. | |

Weak, but Skilled: Notable ones in the N64 version include Plum, Charlie, Peach, Baby Mario, and Luigi. The GCN version ones were Koopa, Peach, and Luigi. The 3DS version has Luigi, Peach, Paratroopa, Toad and Toadette. They have a short drive, but a not-so-extreme shot path, and they have good impact and control. Spin were usually on the weak side though. Also, Normal Characters in the GCN/GBA versions is this when compared to their starred versions, trading drive for impact. They have the advantage on short Par 4 holes and Par 3 holes. | |

Shifting Sand Land: It's standard for installments to have some kind of desert course. These courses generally feature far more sand than rough and little rain compared to other courses. Examples include Shy Guy Desert from the N64 game (remade as Layer-Cake Desert in World Tour), Dunes from the Game Boy installments, Shifting Sands from Toadstool Tour, and Balmy Dunes from Super Rush. Super Rush also has a second desert course, Spiky Palms, but it takes place at an oasis and is more grassy than sandy. | |

Game-Favored Gender | |
| Mario Golf (Video Game) / int_a4dca67 | comment |
Game-Favored Gender: Toadstool Tour and Advance Tour favors a different gender each when it comes to character customizing, between Neil (male) and Ella (female). Ella in Advance Tour has a drive that naturally decays into a low height while Neil's "decays" into a high one. As the latter stages have very high wind, and obstacles never really get taller (Very much so if the characters are not transferred to Toadstool Tour), Neil is at a heavy disadvantage despite his slight power advantage. You can work around the wind, but it's still more effort than Ella has to make. However, Ella's low shot, while great in the GBA version, becomes a liability when imported into the GameCube version with its 3D environments. With a very low shot, it is sometimes impossible to hit the ball up cliffs onto fairways above. This means that Neil gets the advantage in Toadstool Tour with his naturally high shot and powerful distance as he can take some really good shortcuts on top of it. Extra points if your Drive and Impact/Control are high enough to turn him into a Lightning Bruiser. You can work around the terrain sometimes, but it's still more effort than Neil has to make. | |

Jack of All Stats | |
| Mario Golf (Video Game) / int_ac9f78d9 | comment |
Jack of All Stats: Mario is surprisingly not this for once, being a high power low control instead. In fact, the only Jack-of-All-Stats to be found is Yoshi, who has average stats all around. Diddy and Birdo however, can also fit the trope, except that Diddy leans a bit more towards Weak, but Skilled and Birdo towards Unskilled, but Strong. Maple leans towards this due to her super straight drive but the fact that her shots are pretty long and divot fairways are the bane of Maple's existence may disqualify her from this. The Mii in World Tour with no stat-altering clothing is a textbook example. | |

Super Rush features a course based on New Donk City with the layout being the same as the iconic Super Mario Odyssey location, just adapted for golf with tee boxes and greens, as well as Dash Panels to speed characters up during Speed Golf and Jump Panels so characters can jump from building to building in the rooftop holes. | |

One Stat to Rule Them All | |
| Mario Golf (Video Game) / int_b798d379 | comment |
One Stat to Rule Them All: For the portable games, Impact/Control. Impact improves your chances of not duffing the ball when it lands in the bunker or heavy rough and gives more room for error (and even allows aiming through not hitting perfectly if you're familiar with how hitting the ball outside of the sweet-spot works), while Control makes the ball not veer off its path too much, giving better aim. Maxing out both and getting decent distance allows you to treat the rest of the game as a joke! And because both are raised if you decide to spend your level up point on it... For Toadstool Tour, power is the intended most important stat. Where impact, control, and spin are presented with meters at the bottom of a character's stats card, power is presented at the top with a specific numerical driving distance in a large font. Star characters unlocked in the Get Character mode are recruited according to their power stat in order from weakest to strongest. | |

Lethal Lava Land: Any of the Bowser courses, including Bowser Badlands from Toadstool Tour, Bowser's Castle from World Tour, and Bowser Highlands from Super Rush. Landing the ball in lava in Toadstool Tour and World Tour counts as out of bounds, giving the player a penalty and forcing them to completely redo their shot. In Super Rush, lava is treated like a water hazard instead. | |

Pimped-Out Dress | |

The N64 game was the only one to completely lack original golf outfits for Mario characters, but this would change with the GBC game, in which Mario and Luigi wore golfing outfits, while Peach got a Golf Minidress starting in Toadstool Tour in place of her usual Pimped-Out Dress. By the time of Super Rush, all characters received new, unique Golf uniforms, with Peach's replacing her previous Minidress. | |

Unskilled, but Strong | |
| Mario Golf (Video Game) / int_f25b1ae6 | comment |
Unskilled, but Strong: Notable ones in the N64 version include Harry, Mario, Donkey Kong, Wario, Bowser, and Metal Mario. In the GCN version, the notable ones were Daisy, Shadow Mario, Mario, Donkey Kong, Bowser, and Petey Piranha. For the 3DS version, it's Mario, Daisy, Donkey Kong, Bowser, Kamek, Birdo, Nabbit, and Rosalina. They tend to have long drives but a more extreme shot path, and low impact and control. Spin was usually on the high end though. Also, Star Characters in the GCN/GBA versions are Unskilled, but Strong versions of Normal Characters that could be unlocked, trading impact for drive. They have the advantage on long Par 4 holes and Par 5 holes. The AI versions kind of subverted it a bit, despite their hard to control drives with pronounced draws and fades, they know how to work with them, get out of trouble areas, and seem to have gotten putting lessons from Phil Mickelson. | |

Shown Their Work | |
| Mario Golf (Video Game) / int_ffad4e9f | comment |
Shown Their Work: All games are surprisingly accurate to the real sport, featuring realistic court sizes, very accurate depictions of golf clubs and effects, and golf scoring mechanics and terminology. The handheld games and Super Rush even include an in-depth golf dictionary, which shows the developers really went the extra mile when it came to understanding how to play golf. For a golf series seen as "casual", it contains a LOT of correctly-used golf parlance, and a very in-depth glossary to go with it. There are many little touches; the scorecard shows that tournaments are played in pairs, pin locations change between sessions, and the star (pro-level) tournaments in Toadstool Tour feature faster greens than normal, reflecting the practice of cutting them shorter than usual for a big tournament. Another noticeable change in Super Rush is that each character has a more distinct set of clubs in their bag, such as Waluigi or Bowser Jr. favoring more fairway woods and hybrids than irons, just as real life players will have their own distinct sets of clubs. The game also keeps flagsticks in the hole when someone is putting on the green, which was a rule change that golf's primary governing bodies allowed a few years prior to the game's release. | |
