Who the heck are Sonny and Plum?!?
A classic case of “first installment syndrome”.
I will say that the characters that were in the game are great, even ones like Plum and Maple, its got a soothing ost, the golf courses are really good and creative, especially Mario Star, and I gotta say, particularly love the mini-golf courses (that should’ve been something other Mario Golf games did more often). However, again, definitely can tell it’s the first Mario Golf game. It’s incredibly hard to get a proper idea of where you’re hitting the ball, the wind can be too powerful than given, some of the actual characters can be unbalanced, and the enemy AI is absolute BS to deal with. Trust me when I saw it was harder than it should be to do the VS matches. It’s not horrendous, but it’s also not the best. It’s right in the middle of being “meh” or “mediocre”.
As a side note: it’s a Mario game and Mario isn’t even playable at the beginning of the game? Let alone one of the last characters you need to unlock? What kind on nonsensical nonsense is this?!

Like most of the N64 it just aged poorly. It's playable I guess
I miss mini-golf! None of the newer games have the mini-golf stuff that this game had.
Fun game but characters were insanely unbalanced.
The fact that most of the Mario Golf games after this abandoned Mini Golf is a travesty.
Mini golf mode > normal golf
the best mario sports game
good golf game but the unlockables system is a catastrophe and the input lag on the emulated ports make it nigh unplayable. Best way to go is on everdrive with a downloaded save for all the extra characters.
Fun!
It's Golf. Far better than Golf that came before, mind you, but it's still Golf. But with Mario characters and some others we'll never see again.
the character I enjoy most is baby mario
awesome
it is the worst mario golf but mario golf is the best form of mario.
The controls can be kinda janky at times and the course design is far from the best, but it's still a lot of fun.
They really don’t make Mario spinoffs this quaint anymore. In fact, they just don’t make Mario Golf anymore. Maybe someday. I love this game (kisses it on the forehead)
I will shit on bowser's grave
Remember those fucked up regular humans in this game? What was up with that?
