Vine buscando un juego de Golf, y terminé encontrando un JUEGAZO de Golf RPG.

Camelot hizo varios juegos buenos en GBA y este no es la excepción. Un pseudo 3D que se ve genial, las mecánicas del juego son bastante buenas (es el único juego de Golf donde logro que la pelotita vaya donde yo quiero) y tiene unos componentes RPG (ganas experiencia en torneos) que hace que se sienta el progreso.

Y tiene buen multiplayer, 4 personas pueden compartir una sola GBA y jugar juntos.

Good golfing RPG, but I think it's a bit lacking compared to Mario Tennis: Power Tour.

It's funny how you can play through the story mode, get to the credits, and not have seen a single Mario character in person in a MARIO Golf game

I always come back to this, I still have my original gba cartridge, it just holds great memories for me and I like golf. The mario part is a plus lol

Criminally underrated and the best Mario Golf experience, the RPG mechanics were awesome and it had the smoothest controls and best courses, just everything about this game was great.

the optimal way to play this game is to sink literally all of the power drinks/levels into drive and hit albatrosses on par 5s and it is one of the most fun experiences a game can mesh up.

yeah i like JRPGs how could you tell

Man oh man, this game surprises me to no end. Cramming the gameplay of Mario Golf onto the GBA with pre-rendered assets and faux-Mode 7 could not have been an easy feat, and yet it plays so effortlessly.

Camelot applied their work on the Golden Sun games to full effect here. All the graphics look distinct, with the character sprites looking particularly nice. Music and voice clips sound very clear for GBA sound chip standards. While most of your golfing will be done from a top-down perspective, you go in for a more typical angle for the shot, and it just works well.

It would be one thing if the overworld was just a glorified menu, but there's a lot of NPCs to talk to, minigames to take part in, and even secrets to find. Walking off the beaten path and talking to people provides countless distractions from your typical game of golf. Completing any form of challenge will grant your character experience points, which you can dole out into stats of your choosing, tailoring your own playstyle.

While the RPG aspects of "plot and characters" are really middling, everything else creates one of the most fun golf games I've ever played. A chunk of content is locked behind connecting your GBA to Toadstool Tour on the GameCube, and the controls take a bit of getting used to (they managed to cram all the necessary mechanics onto the limited amount of buttons available), but what's on offer here is more than enough for a GBA title. The only reason I'm stopping for now is because the Links Club Tourney keeps kicking my ass lol.

Donkey Kong is canon to the Golden Sun universe

This game was developed by Camelot, and it shows : it's reusing the same engine as Golden Sun, with cute small characters, in a surprisingly deep RPG game that is all about playing golf. Yes, it is the exact same formula than Mario Tennis, but this time with golf. And it's addictive, fun and good. More, please.

A really great golf game that has a cool story mode where you can play an rpg-style golf game earning clubs, etc. I have no idea why, but Mario characters basically do not exist in the RPG part of the game which really makes it so the game only lives up to the 'Golf' part of the title.

Really solid golf game with light RPG elements (and light Mario elements if we’re being honest lmao). Can drag on a bit, but that’ll happen when you’re playing 18 holes in a row. The gameplay is solid, though.
