    all in all, while the game could use more content the mechanic are refined to it's peak simply put this is Mario golf that feels at its best to play

    Fun and Addicting, with more free courses on the way, you'd have to be a miserable person not to love this game and the potential of its future.

    This game is easily the best Mario sports game we've got in a while. While I'd like to see online ranked play or tournament modes, the game is a absolute blast and I can't stop golfing.

    Gorgeous game as on the other hand all Mario sports games but this one beats them all, great fun! I recommend it to everyone especially now that we are in summer.

    Very fun game, people seem to think the game is “okay” but as for me I like a lot of things about this game, the only gripe with this game that I have is the putting seems too unrealistic.

    It’s a fun arcade golf game, but it’s a Mario game and it’s amazing. I originally thought the four player local co-op was going to suck considering that you have to take turns but it goes by really fast and it’s tons of fun solo or with the whole family

    Mario Golf: Super Rush is the best installment in the franchise. It brings back old memories and creates new ones. The new features bring a fresh twist to the game, down to the little details like giving the characters new outfits and unlocked better golf clubs.

The new features bring a fresh twist to the game, down to the little details like giving the characters new outfits and unlocked better golf clubs.

    This game is a wonderful and relaxing game to play; It breaks up the monotony of playing games you have to stay focused on. This game gives you a nice break to just sit back and play a couple rounds but also gives you a couple of game modes that give you that “super rush” you get when you are focused on a good video game for hours.

    The Mii story mode is another refreshing creative twist that gives this game another way to play. It’s fun and fresh and a great addition to the game as a whole.

    With the near future holding more updates to this game I can only say that it is going to get more and more fun for the family. I give this game a thumbs up to Nintendo in their line up of sports themed games. My only complaint would be that I wish the game had more courses and character options, but as shown in the trailers for this game they already have plans to add more of these in the near future.

    In conclusion, I give Nintendo praise for delivering a great wholesome video game that gives the Golfing franchise a fresh coat of paint while adding more to what we loved from the past. With that being said I encourage others to play this game. It’s relaxing, fun and brings a good balance to daily gaming.

    Great game and I'm really enjoying the gameplay and the mechanics but it definitely needs improvements such as online tournaments and a ranking system to name a couple. Hopefully future updates will fix this but realistically Nintendo needs to get out of this releasing features as DLC that should just be in the base game.

    - Thinking that Adventure mode is like the story or something like that? No, don't try to think of this like that. This is a Mario Game. No think about finding something that is revolutionary or gives the a good story. The Adventure mode is somewhat of a tutorial so you can grind your character.
    - This is not totally a bad thing. But you can notice that there will be DLC. Hopefully will add a ton more content

    No idea why this is scored so low, I absolutely loved this game, it's a good golf game in base, but with enough fun mario-y stuff to keep it interesting. Enjoyed it a lot, only criticism is that it's a bit on the short side, but it is way longer than Mario Tennis.

    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

    I'm having a blast with this game! The courses the game has so far is high quality (remind me of the 64 courses). I've seen a lot of people complaining bout the uI for shots but for me has made the game more challenging then form games. The speed golf mode is also a awesome mode to jump into for online play . The motion controls respond great for standard 18 hole rounds. DefinitelyI'm having a blast with this game! The courses the game has so far is high quality (remind me of the 64 courses).

    I wanted to clear up some very skewed reviews by critics and users. I created an account specifically because of this game. I don't think this game is getting the justice it deserves and I feel some people who are playing clearly don't understand the game of golf, and if they don't, need to play and PAY Attention during adventure mode. This is on the same plane as other mario games, it'sI wanted to clear up some very skewed reviews by critics and users. I created an account specifically because of this game. I don't think this game is getting the justice it deserves and I feel some people who are playing clearly don't understand the game of golf, and if they don't, need to play and PAY Attention during adventure mode. This is on the same plane as other mario games, it's detailed enough to be challenging for all ages. It is a golf game, and some seem to be taken aback by concepts very standard to a game like this.

    One critic made a claim that there was no way to decipher the distance and elevation during gameplay. From a gaming standpoint this is someone who clearly didn't play the game, or failed to explore enough to find that there is a range finder you can purchase that gives distance and elevation, just like golf. Others complained about XC golf, but something tells me they didn't put into account all variables when playing. This is after all a golf game, and yes I love golf, so I am somewhat bias, but the game does give plenty of information to prepare you for the fun that is to come. There is a learning curve that makes the game more challenging/frustrating, but rewarding when playing correctly. Golf after all takes patient and calculation.

    I think this game does a great job of applying that, but also being fun for everyone. The best games take time to master and I don't think this has gotten a fair shake. Instead of worrying about the amount of courses to play, maybe try focusing on mastering how to play the game, then when the DLC is out you will know how play well and have fun :)    … Expand

    I am genuinely surprised at how bad the reviews on this game are. The controls work fine and as of writing there are 9 different courses with 18 holes each. At launch it was a little bit lackluster, but the free DLC makes up for it. Motion controls are so fun to use and work well 95% of the time. Any error is likely human, and not the controls.

It is also good to see that Camelot prioritised framerate with a smooth 60fps experience. There is also a decent variety of courses, with the most recent New Donk City being a good addition. The new speed golf mode while fun, can also be a bit chaotic and at times can suffer from a bit of down time. The single player story mode makes a promising start, but loses its charm and appeal rather quickly due to a small number of things to do and weak RPG mechanics. The cross country mode is an interesting feature and I'm surprised that there is no option to play this mode out of the story mode (perhaps this will be added later on?). The recent update also added monthly tournament play which is nice, although I wish power shots were turned off, as in my experience online play involves waiting for your opponents to go first so that you can hit them with a powerful shot and potentially screw up their game. If you have friends or family to play with, I think local play is a great option as well with both split screen and turn by turn play possible. Overall, this is a pretty solid experience that will hopefully continue to get better with more updates just like Mario Tennis Aces.… Expand

    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

    Este título do Mario precisa ser avaliado como um spin e não jogo principal como vi muitos comentários, o game é diversão desenfreada, não possui um modo história não extenso, mas não é essa a intensão do mesmo, e sim ser um ótimo passa tempo em amigos.

    If you like Mario Golf Toadstool Tour on GCN Mario Golf Super Rush is another fun time.
    The gameplay is the best in the series to me and the new modes added are really fun but I still prefer standard golf. I give this game a 8 out of 10 because not all content is here yet and my score might change after all the free updates come out.

    Nul doute que Mario Golf Super Rush comblera les fans de la licence et des jeux de Golf.

    I normally don't go out of my way to review stuff, but I wanted to write this to defend this game because because of all the hate it's been getting. Mario Golf Super Rush is pretty great game, I'd say - the base mechanics are easy to pick up but tough to master, just how it should be. Other modes are cool for shaking things up as well; oh, and everything is better with friends, per usual.I normally don't go out of my way to review stuff, but I wanted to write this to defend this game because because of all the hate it's been getting.

I haven't finished story mode but can say that it isn't the most exciting thing, though it's a cool way to learn the game with a bit of a world-building/story type shell around it. Only actual complaint is that the graphics aren't great sometimes - there's some pop-in for trees and certain characters just don't have a shadow sometimes. Overall, very fun. I'm not totally sure if you'll get your money's worth at full price if you only play alone, but if it's ever on sale for $40 then it's definitely worth it.… Expand
