    Mario Golf and Earthbound combine for one of the most delightful games you'll find on Nintendo's Switch. [Recommended]

    Golf Story is a lovely mix of RPG and golf sim, and while it isn’t the best example of either, it does both to a high enough standard that combined they make for a wonderful experience.
