Ce jeu n'est pas fait pour tout le monde.

Beaucoup diront qu'il est enfantin, que seul les petits y ressentent un réel plaisir dessus mais il en est tout autrement. J'estime que Mario golf est un chef d'oeuvre, voilà enfin je peux le dire. Ce jeu a tout pour plaire et seul les grandes personnes peuvent réellement l'apprécier à sa juste valeur, les gueux du bon sens n'ont rien à dire et rien à reprocher à cette masterclass folle qu'est mario golf.

Mashing on the emotes for your character until the voices broke was the first time I felt a game really scare me. Demon Pitched Wario growling "NOT BAD... FOR YOU" made me turn the gamecube off on reflex, like I was about to get got. And I was the one playing as Wario!

I love this game and there is nothing worth writing down in here except: Play this, enjoy your time, don't try to unlock any of the characters unless you're willing to commit.

This is my current run, trying to unlock all the characters for party play with friends who will never appreciate the time and skill it took to finally get Shadow Mario and Boo.

The Gamecube was full of the best entries in various series, and that goes for Toadstool Tour as well. I found this game pretty challenging as a kid and only could fully appreciate it later on, but it's everything you would want out of a Mario Golf title.

Toadstool Tour has an excellent sense of progression as you work your way through the career mode. It starts out as a pretty normal golf game with not too many Mario franchises, but the courses get gradually wackier as you go on until they really feel like the full Mushroom Kingdom experience.

There's a bit of a learning curve and a reasonable amount of depth to the golf mechanics. The game will guide the player in what to do but often it will set you up for failure and you have to know where to make adjustments to its suggestions. It's a very satisfying experience and excellent to break out for multiplayer fun as well.


This game features a taunt system that allows you to heckle the other players currently golfing. Whoever programmed that feature is an agent of chaos because there is no cooldown and you can spam it until the other players are unable to concentrate over walls of text bubbles accompanied by the same sound clip of Wario burping nonstop. It's great.

Arnold Palmer would be proud of this one.

It's just a good golf game with some wacky Mario courses. If that's what you're looking for, you're in the right place.

Golf bores me. This game does not. It's easy for me to get so addicted when playing, trying to finish Ring Attack mode or doing the Birdie and One-on, One-putt challenges. Game rocks.

Mario Golf Toadstool Tour is a good choice for Mario fans waiting to hit the putting green

Graphics, usual Mario graphics for GameCube, cartoony and fun, also excellent

Controls are good, you press A to fill up the meter to determine how strong you will hit the golf ball.

Lasting value, fairly above average for golf fans.

Final score: 3.5/5

It's a good time with Mario and friends on the GameCube's version of the putting green, but Super Rush on Switch I think will be even better than this one.

I really did not play this game very much. There isn't much that I can speak on, aside from it appearing to be a decently accurate golfing sim. Since I'm not particularly interested in the sport in general and this game does not feature a specific objective (like a story mode), I put this one down pretty quickly. It certainly was good, but its also not necessarily a game that many people want to sit down and play, unlike Mario Kart or Mario Party.

Alright and balanced characters, but the challenge wasn't as good as the original.

From my childhood. Golf doesn't appeal to me, but the Mario theming makes it a bit more palatable.

Incredibly relaxing and fun to play, easy to learn hard to master mechanics, varied courses with multiple references to the Mario universe, and that damn cuckoo. Nothing ever came close in the sequels.

how the fuck have they never done super mario mini golf? that’s a few million buckos right there nintendo consider it a freebie from ur old pal Ty

My favorite suite of controls for a Mario Golf game but I think the course design is a harsh divide between 'unmemorable' and 'miserably gimmicky'. There's also a lot of side content that I'm sure I would've liked as a kid but don't have the patience for today.

Refined gameplay and better course design make Toadstool Tour the best game in the Mario Golf series.

Playing Mario Golf: Toadstool Tour is a lot like being a little kid on Christmas. You come downstairs and have all of these wonderful beautiful presents wrapped up and prepared with love. Your parents, who got up before you, have cooked a bountiful breakfast of eggs and sausage, and certainly some pancakes with syrup. Sparing no expense there is even real maple syrup there, not that "pancake syrup" junk they try to give you at other times of the year. Having polished off breakfast and armed with a steaming mug of hot cocoa, you sit down to open some presents and see what's inside; your expectations bolstered by the wondrous character of any given Christmas morning: the inside of the presents matter much less than knowing that your family is with you, and loving, and happy. Anyways I haven't played this game but I bet it's fun.

Great! Has everything you would want from a Mario Golf game, though some of the unlock conditions for characters can be annoying especially Bowser Jr and Shadow Mario. Overall solid golf game for the gamecube i would recommend but to some might be outdated now.

It would be a 10, but there aren't enough courses.

Instant banger.

This game is in my opinion, the best Mario Golf game to date (excluding the ones I have yet to play.) The sheer number of modes, variety of courses, unlockables, and genuinely good golf gameplay makes this experience well worth your time.

I'm not really much of a golf game guy, but this is a really great full package when it comes to the genre. A lot of fun figuring out how to get good at this with friends, and there's a great amount of single player modes to help get better at the game and have fun alone. Shout out to the opening FMV for this and Mario Power Tennis, remember when the Mario sports games had the best cutscenes of any Mario game for some reason? Good times.


I played the crap outta this one with cousins. The character variety was nice, stages weren't too gimmicky, had a lot of personality, and actually made me like playing a golf game.
