Information About

Nes Open Tournament Golf




''NES Open Tournament Golf'', or '''''Mario Open Golf''''' in Japan , is a Golf -based video game released for the Nintendo Entertainment System in 1991 . It is actually the third of three golf games featuring Mario as the golfer, but it is the only one of the three to be released outside of Japan. (The other two, ''Golf Japan Course'' and ''Golf U.S. Course'', were released only on the Famicom Disk System .)

The game's "Stroke Play" can be played by one to two players. Like the Mario console platformers released around the time, the first player will play as Mario, and the second player is Luigi . At certain points during gameplay, the Mario Bros. are offered advice by their Caddies , Princess Peach and Princess Daisy , respectively. This is interesting as it is the first time implied that Daisy is considered Luigi's answer to Mario's Peach.


GAMEPLAY

In the one-player "Match Play", in which the winner is whoever wins the most holes, Mario plays alone, playing against five computer-controller opponents. He will first challenge Luigi, who ranks at Beginner 1. Afterwards, he will face off with four newly-created characters, similar to those in later Mario Golf games:

  • Steve - Beginner 2

  • Mark - Amateur

  • Tony - Semi-Professional

  • Billy - Professional


The courses take place in the United States , Japan, and the United Kingdom .
