FUCK.
Golf with some RPG elements. Not hard to fuck up Nintendo. I was really looking forward to this.

What do you expect? they don't expand their studios, they don't buy many studios and they are stuck in a constant rut with no resources despite making obscene profit on the switch.
I preordered Mario Golf so i can play with friends but i'm not surprised at the score.

It was a super rushed game.I fear the RPG mode is stupidly short, simple and limited

Scores don't surprise me at all. I'm reminded of a lot of the N64's Mario spin-offs that frequently got 6's and 7's. At this point, they're just pumping out what they can even if it's rushed because the Switch's market is hot and hungry.
PS. I knew this one was a solid NOPE from the moment it was announced.
PS2. "Mario Golf Super Rushed" Amirit??

If low effort shit cash grabs like tennis aces and pokemon sword can sell millions then why bother doing anything interesting with your games? Blame the nintendo shills for buying and enabling garbage.

They've been phoning it in since well before the pandemic.

Maaan. I wonder if it's worth it for those of us who don't really care about an RPG mode?
I think they mean the character Birdo.

That's a shame, seems like it's really rushed. Will skip.

seems like a purposefully barebones base game to sell for 60$ only to pad it out with DLC later on...
Yeah, once I saw some of that leaked footage I noped out.
No three click gameplay, so RNG determines where your ball will go at higher distances. Uninspired-looking course designs that aren't challenging enough to be realistic, but don't make enough use of wacky Mario elements either. No online tournaments. Bare-bones single-player.
At this stage expecting Nintendo to put any effort into their sports games is a fools errand. It's been this way for a decade.
Just play Everybody's Golf. It's the same gameplay, but incredible instead of mediocre.

A sequel to Everybody’s Golf is one of the announcements I’m always hoping to hear.

Amazing that they seem to have taken a giant step backwards from a 3DS game released 7 years ago. Still really excited to play the game since even a mediocre Mario Golf game is going to be fun for a while.

I just read the Eurogamer review (their "score" was Recommended) and the game sounds great. It has 16 characters, 6 courses and a brand new game mode that is fundamentally a game unto itself (Speed Golf). At it's core, it's a Camelot golf game, which means it'll be an amazing straight up golf game.
Not sure what everyone was smoking or expecting, but I'm definitely picking this one up.

Toadstool Tour is the pinnacle of Mario Golf games IMO.
It really can't be stressed enough how much fun that game is.

I mean ... I'm picking it up

Not sure why anyone would claim there's a lack of golf game modes when it's got golf, plus a brand new mode never in any golf game before, plus a story mode. What were they really expecting?

8/10 is pretty much exactly what I expected.

Whether you're a fan of golf, a fan of Mario, or both, Mario Golf: Super Rush is a fun twist on the sport.

I mean, I thought Tennis Aces was one of the best Tennis games I've ever played. Gyro aiming on the power slams, crazy super moves and dashing hits.
The netcode was really my only complaint, and that shouldn't be that much of a factor on a golf game.

COVID definitely screwed up Nintendo's development process, but I don't think it's to blame here. Pretty much all of the complaints being leveled against this game—shallow singleplayer campaign, light on content at launch—were true of Mario Tennis Aces as well. Seems like Nintendo and Camelot have decided to go the "finish it with free updates" route with their Mario Sports titles.
This is my biggest issue with the game as well. The core gameplay and modes look fun, but I wish the courses were more silly and inventive. A real waste of the Mario universe.
That said, the New Donk City course they showed at E3 looked awesome, so maybe I'll wait a few months and see if I can grab it on sale after some of the free DLC has come out. (This is what I should have done with Mario Tennis Aces instead of preordering it.)

What time is it?
I have a bad feeling that Everybody's Golf was the last entry in the franchise. While really good, it was one of the weaker entries in the series and continued the stupid trend of pay-to-win clubs that World Invitational brought to the table. It seems like we are in the worst timeline for 3-click Golf.
I'm still getting Mario Golf but I wasn't expecting it to be much better than Tennis Aces.

I actually prefer the N64 game. That’s surprising considering I like the Cube way better.
