    A shallow hollow imitation of the Mario Golf gameplay. The new swing system not only removes the timing based aspect of the game. It also removes any real penalty for making a bad shot.

    Stuck in some sand? Crack out the 1 Wood and smack it to the green, no problem. The whole concept is built on a risk/reward system but it simply doesn't work. The risk is microscopic and the reward is    A shallow hollow imitation of the Mario Golf gameplay. The new swing system not only removes the timing based aspect of the game.

    People defending this gameplay mechanic, heck, I even defended it at one point. It's not worth defending. It basically removes the whole point of golf, it removes learning the clubs, knowing how to handle each situation. It's all gone. You just smack it and hope for the best. The game simply wont allow you to mess up. It's the worst thing to possibly happen to Mario Golf cos it ruins every single aspect of the game. The skill element, the planning element, the timing, the importance of each club, it's all gone. if you think I'm exaggerating, you haven't played the game enough, or haven't dared to experiment. The only thing that comes out unscathed really is the putting.

    At the most it's a system you can tolerate but I highly doubt people familiar with the series can honestly say this is the right direction for the series. And it's not just me. My dad bought a Switch JUST for this game cos he loves the series so much. And after a day, he was saying he's thinking of selling it. He's 60 and even he hates it, it's sad.

    I can't believe how much they messed up Mario Golf here. It's a shallow, hollow shell of a game and I reckon it'll forgotten about by most in a month or two. And top it all off, it barely has any content or side modes. No ring shot, club slots, challenges, vs matches, win records, leaderboards. Nothing. it's almost comparable to Mario Tennis Ultra Smash and that's just sad.

In Cross Country Golf you have to plan your path carefully to avoid spending the whole game trying to shoot up a cliff wall. When you plan it carefully there are obstacles that frequently put you in a stalemate. Hole on an island? Land the shot perfectly and spend the rest of the game trying to cross the bridge to the island only to have a cloud blow you off while assigning a penalty stroke every 2 minutes you spend hopelessly trying to reach your ball. Clearly, I should run around the entire course and go the back way! Nope, screw you for playing this game we're going to make unscalable cliff walls around the barrier and another cloud pushing you back in the only other path to the ball. Oh you were 8 shots under par and right next to the hole? Wow, sucks to be you. Thanks for the $60 schmuck! Wait here while we slowly fail you on your best game. Stalemates are lazy game development. At least let me skip the stupid stuff so I can enjoy the rest of the game. I appreciate all the corny Mario nonsense, but primarily I want to play golf. When getting to my ball becomes the biggest challenge it ceases to be a golf game. Please save your money. At best it's criminally greedy to charge $60 for this half-baked nonsense, but at worst it's probably a big waste at any price. Play it at a friend's house first. You probably don't want to buy it without playing it first.… Expand

There is no challenge so the game loses its luster fast. Speed golf is fun, but I feel the game needs additional modes available . Cross golf and a Tournament is playable briefly in the story mode but is non existent otherwise. The campaign,if you can call it that, is more like a tutorial with a light story. Its disappointing because they already have the blueprint from prior games to create a great campaign mode. Seems like they just dropped the ball. I'm hoping Camelot releases an update soon to give what is otherwise a good game any replayability.… Expand

This game could be fun as a party game with other players but alone it feels boring and unfair. I am missing Nintendo's polish in this game. I regret buying Mario Golf for $60, it's not worth it at all, probably more like $30 due to the lack of content. It's very disappointing what Nintendo has released as a full price game.

    The minus here though is that there not too much single player content and the adventure mode is kind of boring, but it will at least teach you all the basics you need. Anyway, multiplayer is where its at and this game doesn't disappoint. It's fun to play with friends and is a great addition to all the other main Nintendo games like smash, kart, tennis, Etc. Worth a purchase and arguably the best golf game on Switch unless you can't stand not playing against real world golfers. In that case stick with the inferior gameplay of PGA 2k. Gameplay is king for me, so I vote for Mario Golf.    … Expand

BUT it truly feels incomplete and it lacks the Mario personality and creativity older Mario sports games had. The fact that they reused the victory/loosing animations from birdies and bogeys across every other type of hole outs (hole in ones, eagles, triple bogeys etc.), the game courses lack the Mario uniqueness of them, with only a few being good enough for that, the fact that the "supershots" are unbalanced and inconsistent since less than half of the roster gets unique attributes to their special shots while the rest of the roster gets the generic Blast away special, and its not like they didn't have material to pull from. World tour had such a great set of starting courses, unique and creative victory animations and overall better gameplay. It's truly sad hoe the game lacks n personality like this and that most of this stuff that is missing from the game will probably never come to the game in any of the "free" updates. Not to mention the short adventure mode that disappoints beyond belief in my opinion, it started out great and I was expecting to continue on with what it set but half way through it I became bored and it felt more like a task rather than a source of entertainment. My only wish is that they fix some of the issues I and other players have in future updates. Also I'm mad that we can't taunt other players like we used to in Toadstool tour, I know that Nintendo wants to approach more family friendly terms with this, But it could easily be a setting to turn on and off these taunts, which lead to my next complaint which is more of a nitpick, but its that the characters are not very expressive, this goes along with my complaint about the animations/victory screen where the characters barely say anything, from what I can remember, the most a character has talked in the game was Daisy when she says "Whatever" in her Bogey/loosing animation or Rosalina's "Oh Boy" in the same situation, these I find are very good expressions from these characters but having it as every single loosing animation makes them feel dull, with Daisy saying "whatever" gives her some of that sass that she had back in the day and that she still has but has been dulled down as of recent years, I would have loved to see her rage in madness when she gets a triple bogey or do cartwheels in while creating fields of flowers and plants when getting a Hole-In-One. When I started playing and got my first eagle I felt really excited at first because of my accomplishment, but then I saw the character I was playing as, in that case Wario, do the same animation I had already seen for his birdie celebration screen, it made me sad and I was shocked to see that they all suffered the same fate. I don't know if this is Camelot's doing or Nintendo's, but I, along many others, am tired of this recent takes that have been doing on recent Mario Games were it's all more simplified, minimalistic, dull, and overall lacking of the Mario personality, and What worries me the most about this is the fact that This has been going on for a while and I don't want this to take effect on future installments. For example, The Mario Strikers Games are know for being really chaotic and excitement, One of the things that stand out from these games to me is the intros and interactions characters have between each other, basically talking smack to the opponent before starting the match, I fear that things like this would be replaced with more friendly and non interesting intros were the characters wouldn't even interact with each other. Anyways Going back to Mario golf, I still think it's a good game, though as of now, it is not worth the price it's got, and I fear that the updates won't be enough to make the game good enough to reach that price tag. I personally Mario Sports Tittle shouldn't be more than $50, unless they have enough content to justify the price tag. Would I recommend this game? Skeptical yes, but I'd recommend waiting for some of those "free updates" to buy it or wait until it goes n discount.… Expand

After playing Toadstool Tour for nearly 18 years(!), my friends and I were ready for another title in the MG series to play for the next 2 decades. TT was a wonderful balance of gameplay, strategy, and of course, Mushroom Kingdom wackiness.

    Sadly... Mario Golf: Super Rush is NOT Toadstool Tour. The combination of my high expectations and nostalgia for the GameCube classic really affected my ability to enjoy this game. I realize that isn't fair to the developers of MGSR, as this is a NEW game with NEW gameplay modes, but if it ain't broke, why fix it?

    Mario Golf Super Rush seems to suffer from an identity crisis. It feels too complicated for casual gamers, but too rigid for serious competitors (IMO). There's an 'RPG' mode, but the NPCs have nothing to say, the locations are sparse, and the story is snooze. You've got every Mario character ever to choose from and the 'Head Coach' is just named 'Head Coach'? Why not let Yoshi guide you through the adventure? Why is 'Birdo' your 'mama'? Why do you even need to 'rest'? It feels lazy and incomplete.

    Speed Golf is admittedly fun, and the network play enhances it greatly because the local AI is atrocious.

    One of my major gripes is that they got rid of replays... REPLAYS! I understand that they wouldn't work in speed or battle golf... but why take them out of single or multiplayer local play? Also, you can't see the trajectory of the ball / the trajectory never changes as you change clubs. This makes it really difficult to know the flight path of your shot when you're aiming at the tornados in XC mode, or simply trying to curve around trees. Why?!

    I'm sure I'll learn to love it more (or at least LIKE it), and am excited to play online with my friends now that we're grown and have families of our own. Super Rush could have been great, but it's not.    … Expand

Cross-country golf is a good idea but is dreadful. The story mode doesn't compare to the GBA games or even the 3DS game.
    Furthermore, there is a lack of content. The courses are basic and there are only 6 of them at launch. Only 6 courses isn't a deal breaker but the fact they are so basic and devoid of character kills them. The battle golf gimmick is another good idea done dreadfully, but there are only 2 variations of the course and the item mechanic isn't as developed as the same idea in the 3DS game.
    Finally, the big gimmick; the speed golf. It's fun. The first few times. By the end of the story mode, the mechanic had already worn thin and didn't excite me barring the odd multiplayer game.
    Compared to every other game in this series, this game falls short. No challenge mode (with the challenges in the story just amounting to handholdy tutorials) and nothing to keep my attention for longer than 5 hours.
    This may end up being like Kirby Star Allies and after the launch it will grow to be something fun. But now, it is nothing more than a distraction and I implore anybody who does enjoy this game to go back and play the other earlier games to see what a truly fun Mario Golf game is.
    The game is pretty enough but just feels B-tier across the board. I also don't get why there couldn't be more characters in the game because most of them are simply skins. Sure, animation work takes time, but with the special shots/ dashes being doubled up on occasion it just smells slightly cheap for a full price game.

    Swinging: Ok, I could have guessed that a 2-click-mechanic might miss the final 3rd click that makes swinging in golf games so fun and challenging. Hitting perfectly straight in Mario Golf? No problem, because there is no 3rd click. Instead every swing that is close to the 100% of the club length gets a RANDOM divergence to the left or right. Why random? Facepalming really hard. Please introduce 3-click-swings!

    Curve balls: You can give the ball as much as 4 (!!!) curves. Why? Does it make it more fun or are 4 curves needed for certain courses? No. It just adds nonsense complexity that doesn't help the experience at all.

    Putting: Way too easy. All other games are harder and as hard as they should be. Greens in Mario Golf are just super easy and boring.

    Courses: Yes, colorful as Mario Kart courses, but they aren't done smart. No hard decisions to be made, no clever new routes open up with certain characters or clubs, no risk-reward patterns at all.

    Story mode: Just pain. Feels like a 10 year old boring adventure game with loads of dumb conversations and lame challenges. You need to play it though to be able to access all courses.

The reason for minus 2 points is the artwork. Mostly the UI is a bland affair with no character or Mario style flair. Podium section at the end of a round is equally bland in presentation. The worst thing though is the environment art especially in the last two courses, Wild Weather Woods and Bowser's Highlands, it looks quite poor and feels very rushed indeed. With rushed modelling and texturing. That said I still think its a very playable game and I believe it will get better when the DLC gets dropped.… Expand

    They most likely have killed this game like they killed Mario Party on release because of that, Pokemon was lucky to be on the peak of popularity worldwide cause of Pokemon Go, and Pokemon TCG, if not would have been one of the worst release on the series ( is today the best seller)

Speed Golf and Battle Golf is fun and makes the game new and refreshing, however, Adventure Mode is a total dud... you only play in one tournament throughout the entire campaign, the rest is basically a boring quest to defeat the Snow King or whatever his name is, not to mention not all characters even make an appearance in the storyline... If you want to play with friends or solo play online it’s a fun game that can waste some hours, if you want classic style of golf with tournaments and cups, that’s not present at all unfortunately. I’m assuming both will be added later on, but this is the basis of a golf game that should have been added along with the two gimmicks of Speed and Battle golf. They’re fun, but requires online to play since the bots are pretty stupid and there is no way to change the difficulty of them. There is also no way to see where your ball is going via scope, you get another stupid gimmick to see land slope etc, but can’t really zoom in and out, which is the same case for putting, can’t really tell what slopes are for long putts so it’s a guessing game. Also no really challenges besides those thrown into adventure mode; which aren’t all that challenging. Perhaps after adventure campaign you could go back and play the tournaments on the lackluster 6 maps they put into the game... Overall it’s a decent/mediocre game. Worth $65? Absolutely not, it’s a $30-40 at most.… Expand

    1) Every shot is automatically accurate. No. There's about a million different ways you can modify a shot and course conditions that effect your swings that becomes more important as you play with actual players. People are contradicting themselves saying every shot is accurate while others are complaining shots don't respond like they should. Maybe it's course conditions? Note you CAN see the trajectory/loft on your shot too. Incorrect information from some about that.

    Types of shots, not "automatically accurate":

    a) Backspin and Super Backspin
    b) Shaped Shots
    c) Super Shots
    d) Top Spin
    e) Duff Shots
    f) Blast Shots
    g) Clubs with specific effects such as: Increased Draw, Increased Fade. Abilities to clubs such as: Stingers. Skipping Water. Hitting through wind more easily, etc
    h) Lob Shots

    2) The game has poor graphics. It's a switch, rendering how many assets including trees, particle effects, characters. It's not bad at all. Switch has limited hardware. Get over it.

    3) The game isn't competitive. Ranked doesn't mean competitive. Ranked means Ranked. You can play online with strangers and friends. There's also a Battleground to play on.

    4) Courses are too easy. Not in adventure mode. There's plenty of challenges. Courses also have unique conditions to affect your shots. For example, there's lightning on a course. If you don't have the club to resist lightning and want to hit a shot in the "lightning zone" you get electrocuted and it changes your ability to shoot the ball. I've also played against two bosses in an arena format within Adventure mode.

    5) There aren't enough courses. More to come in DLC.

    6) The music isn't as good as Nintendo 64. Seriously take off the rose tinted lenses. "Best Music" is subjective.

    7) "Wish there was a standard mode". There is a standard mode.

    My take away is this. I'm absolutely fed up with people who don't play a game, own the game, or review a game from start to finish weighing in with heavy handed opinions and essentially dog piling what they are saying that simply isn't true. It's a quality game, it's fun. I enjoy playing with my friends. 7.5/10.    … Expand

    I want to preface this with saying I’m a big Toadstool Tour fan. I love how much personality the characters have with their animations and the silly things you can make them say.

I love the level of control and accuracy you have that’s easy to understand and figure out. You’re able to control where on the ball you hit and able to put a topspin or backspin or even stronger variants. Super shots felt important and needed to be managed carefully. The aim of your shots are easy to figure out because you can follow the path of the shot and change it depending on the whole arc, giving fantastic control to the player.

    Super Rush falls short of every single one of these. Character animations are practically dead and there’s no way to make snarky comments when others are shooting. The time I spent with the game I tried to parse how to simply put a backspin on my shot, and the game just doesn’t tell you anything. The game pretends to give you control over putting a spin on the ball, but then rng kicks in and it’ll change what your spin is regardless of your input. Different clubs don’t seem to change shot arcs but instead just change distance, something you can already do with any club. Aiming is an absolute mess, your only tools are a birds eye view that doesn’t show depth at all and a “first person” aiming mode that barely controls at all.

    I would comment on the extra modes, but with how the game controls on the basest levels it just isn’t worth even getting into them. There’s a few neat multiplayer ideas but the single player possibilities are so sparse compared to the tournaments and challenges of older games. It’s to such an extent I don’t think the game could get course corrected even with patches, something that shouldn’t even be a requirement to ask for. As much as I want a good new Mario Golf game, this isn’t it. I’d recommend finding a copy of Toadstool Tour instead.    … Expand

Golf Adventure, while useful at first, gets super boring and repetitive once you learn the base controls. The online functionality is super barebones, and with no ranking system, there's not a whole lot of incentive to play it. Of the 6 (really?) courses that were released, I will say that only 3 of them stand out. And the super annoying repeated audio from the characters is almost enough to make me want to mute the game, even though I actually quite enjoy the soundtrack.

    Obviously, this game shines with friends and family. It's a blast playing Speed Golf and trying to get the quickest and lowest score. And not every game is fun with friends (I'm looking at you, Super Mario Party), so it definitely succeeded in that aspect.

    I just wished they would have delayed the game by at least 2 months to really give it the Nintendo polish that I have come to expect from them. I know that DLC is coming in the future, but I much would have preferred a later release with much more content instead of what we got.

    TL;DR: If you have friends to play this game with, by all means, go for it. It's a blast with friends. But you will probably start to notice a lack of content that you probably would have assumed would be in the game. If you have no one besides randoms online to play with, I would say hold off on it for now. Wait for some of these content updates to release, and then make your decision.    … Expand

Gone is the ability to see your shot's entire flight path, the ability to angle your shot BEFORE you swing so you can tell if it's going to clear a tree, or even the simple ability to just move the camera to different angles and distances.

You just have no real control over the camera to speak of so it all feels like a guessing game.

    I don't understand the point of the scanner / range finder either, as it doesn't even let me set a marker on the power bar as to where to stop in order to hit where i want to aim... unlike to TT where you could set markers on the bar to indicate precisely where you wanted to aim. I can't think of a single use for the scanner except checking the topography of where I'm going to land.

    I like that you can change the flight curve mid-air, but I don't see how that's useful when I can't see the flight path before swinging to know if my actions are going to be effective or not.

    They took out manual and forced all shots to be automatic shots, so it's like I there is little reward for skilled play. Also, the whole gimmick with the top of the power bar causing your shots to go wild just feels like punishing me, especially as without interesting courses, the only real "strategy" is to just drive as far as you can until you're putting on the green.

    Almost all the maps are extremely boring and offer no interesting diverging paths. It's just standard, uninspired golf the entire time.

    The new additions are neat, like the special clubs and shots, but the horribly stripped UI that makes it extremely hard, if not impossible, to plan precise shots along with the CONTINUED refusal to add mini golf back in and the lack of actual content has made this a real bummer for me. This game feels much more like a golf simulation than an arcade game - and I don't play mario sports games for a simulated difficulty - I play them for wacky over the top environments and plays that would be nearly impossible irl.

    I can't recommend playing this until after they add more content, and even then it's not a sure thing. Just don't be like me and buy it physically so you can at least sell it or return it.    … Expand

    The best thing about the game so far for me that Mario Tennis Aces was sorely lacking at release is the amount of customization you have when setting up games. When playing standard golf, you can choose if everyone takes turns or goes all at once, disable special shots, adjust the weather strength, choose how many holes to play (up to 18) and more. And probably most importantly in my opinion, you can disable BGMs during matches for a relaxing golf experience without that obnoxious music blaring.

There's not tons of players or courses, but they are adding more soon, and for free, so that's great, too.

    Mario Golf: Super Rush is a refreshing game for the Mario sports series (which has not had a good game in a few years). I've played every mode in the game and i love each and every one of them, especially battle golf. The only problems i have with the game are the terrible motion controls and the story mode "Golf Adventure" dragging on for longer than it should. Overall this game is a solid 9

    Speed Golf is undoubtedly the main attraction of the game and it is a pity that other modes aren´t also so good.

    It’s great to see Mario Golf back with some great new modes to play but changes to the gameplay take the series one-step forward and two-steps back. [Issue #4, p.53]

    In all, it's incredible, and a great purchase for fans of past installments. [Issue #54 – September 2021, p. 67]
