For the last hour or so, I've been playing through a tournament (on Laiktu), playing the Ring Challenges and just finished a match-up against Luigi, and, in two words, I can accuratelky describe it as a golf sim - above average. If this was back on the 64, it'd be superb as a golf sim. But now, with the new ways to hit the ball with the analogue stick, it justr looks aged.
But, if you're buying a Mario game to be a simulator then there is something up with you, seriously. Being able to 'compliment' the other player and fill his screen with 'let's go!', 'you're the best' by button smashing is a good touch, and could do well in multiplayer, and the range of characters bodes well for playability.
I'm going back for another go. I'll post back with some more thoughts later on.
I just got my first eagle. Majestic. On a par 4.
Mmmm
Yus.
The control system really is excellent, and it really is great fun.
I'm off to play some more.
Ask me tomorrow, and I'll give you it.
The thing to get the password thing up is by holding 'z' as you press start on the title screen. Yus.
I don't read NOM, NGC > NOM you see. :)
The best I've got (from 1 attempt) is about 14 over par.
On the last 2 holes, though, I was trying to chip it in, hitting it off the green on purpose
