Now, I didn't expect much from a Mario Golf game but I feel like even compared to past entries this one feels kind of odd.

The main issue with this game for me is how overall cheap the game feels. Not just in its graphics which are surprisingly not great for a full-priced mario game, but in the canned and stiff animations, lack of content in both quantity, variety, and depth, and the lack of fairly basic options, it just feels like this was SUPER Rushed (hahaha). On top of that, the new swing system is kind of an objective downgrade from the last one due to not being able to affect your accuracy, the music is super bland and boring with even ACES having more memorable tunes, the story mode kinda loses its luster after the first bit of it, and the online isn't exactly as good as previous NPLN titles like Mario Party and Monster Hunter.

That being said, I do think that Speed Golf is really fun, the courses are not as bad as I was expecting them to be, and it is fairly fun to play with friends. But at this point, I'll just stick to Clubhouse Games golf instead.
