I'd have to say that this is the Ray Floyd of TH-cam reviews, and more specifically, the Nick Faldo of NES Open Tournament Golf reviews.. and no shame in calling back that gorgeous ace on US 10, Fozzy. Fun video, and thanks for the shoutout!
I'm surprised to hear SNES Drunk is into golf. How posh!! But the video is nice and the graphics are both smooth and surprisingly detailed for a NES game! Makes me wonder which golf games on Sega Genesis are worth playing 😊
@AB0BA_69 I think I remember having an Arnold Palmer golf game for Sega(my memory isint the best and I didint play much Sega outside of the "Strike" series of helicopter games I loved me some desert/jungle strike
@@AB0BA_69This does look fun for the NES; but after playing Neo Turf Masters on the Neo Geo for so many years, it's literally the only golf game I've ever truly loved. (Emulated of course; because I'm poor). But I did feed many a quarter into a New cabinet that happened to have it in the line up.
NES golf is one of those games that brings happy tears while playing it. I have a lot of memories playing NES golf with my grandpa whenever I was visiting my grandparents. I still enjoy playing it even after he passed away back in 2001
His channel actually has a great compilation video that features several SNES golf games reviewed. It's quite informative. Title of the video is "Every Super Nintendo Golf Game - SNES drunk"
Little known fact about Corey Pavin: He was once in a band with Daryl Hall. Technically they were a duo, but Hall was 99% of the band and eventually dumped him.
Only started playing it on the NES online console. Found it fun and challenging. I started playing golf games around the time of the Tiger Woods games so this oldie was kinda refreshing.
You mean I can't blame the unrealistic physics and bad controls for my mediocre tournament performances? Great video as always! I hope your enthusiasm will bring even more people to this game!
Mario certainly does seem shoehorned into this title. The Japanese and Western versions of this game are so different; each is essentially a ROM hack of the other. (For those unaware, the Japanese title is "Mario Open Golf"; still, the game could have easily not starred Mario and it would seem no different.) The Japanese release has no Tournament Mode; the object is to unlock five additional courses: Starting in Japan, you'll then unlock courses in Australia, France, Hawaii, the UK, and finally the "Extra" course, which is a mix of the previous courses' holes. Both versions clearly have different objectives, and I encourage fans of this game who have access to import games (who own both a Family Computer and a Nintendo Entertainment System, no matter where you are in the world) to track down a copy of the other version, as they offer different experiences. Lastly, the point to the version differences is that this game left a legacy in later Mario Golf games: both the NES version's Tournament Mode, as well as the Famicom version's unlockable courses being featured in Mario Golf for Nintendo 64, for instance. I apologize for the lengthy comment, but I wish everyone a blessed day!
My grandfather had an NES when I was a kid and he'd let me and my brother play when we would visit him on the weekends. HOWEVER the only two games he had were this game and Contra. Needless to say when we were sick of Contra kicking our asses we would take turns playing a little Mario golf to chill out. I could've sworn he was the only person who bought NES Open because I've never seen it anywhere else. Thanks for reminding me about this game!
I love NES Open, my brother bought it for the Switch and we still play occasionally. We must have rented it half a dozen times when we were young. NES Open wasn't overly complicated, but had enough challenge to make 2-player a blast.
I love seeing your uploads early in the morning like this. The passion and enthusiasm you have for these classic titles is simply infectious, and it sets up a really positive vibe for the rest of my day!
I thought of this game, as being one of the first from Nintendo, that took games to an extra level, added polish, story and options. Things that would be the new normal on future SNES games.
Damn, the black box golf brings back memories. It was one of the very few gaming experiences I shared with my father back in the day. He didn't care much about video games (and also had very poor eyesight which only got worse with time), but he was a sports fan, and when we got the first NES, we would play some of these black box games together, specifically soccer, volleyball, tennis, kung fu and golf, or he would sit next to me as I played and comment on how all these things were in real sports. I miss him. Those were the days of our lives, the bad things in life were so few.
I remember my mom bought the Toploader NES and bought this game. I just missed it because I was playing super Nintendo and then on the N64 when I had to move back in around the late 90s early 2000s I had sold everything and didn’t have anything to play. When I was between jobs there was this to play. I actually got pretty deep into it and had a lot of fun with it.
Not only was i laughing out loud hearing you call you hole in one, I dug this one out of the bottom of my NES pile and got into some match play tonight. Thanks dude! Love your channel
I remember this game being everywhere when I was a kid. I also remember starting each game seriously, and then devolving into just hacking the ball after my 2nd double bogey. I still do that.
For an underrated hidden golf gem, try I Love Golf! on the SNES. It never left Japan but you can find a community translation. It plays much closer to Kirby's Dream Course than any other golf game. So, on the opposite direction from this one, it might not work for enthusiasts of the sport, but I think it's great as a casual game.
This game oozes nostalgia for me. Me and my cousins used to hit the ball out of bounds cause we thought the noise it makes was funny. Never got good at it, but I've now grown up playing Hot Shots Golf and Mario Golf Toadstool Tour, so going back to it wasn't that bad. Glad someone is giving this game some attention!
I have a cool polaroid playing this as a kid on my NES around '93. Cool golf game :D It has a nice level of complexity, so that's not too hard if you are not into golf. But enough factors like in what kind of ground, distance, wind, ascending green etc. that make it interesting and the learning curve is pretty steep. Had lot of fun with it. And technically it's solid and good looking for a NES game.
I had this game growing up and I forgot about the highlights! It had a bunch of neat features for the time. I remember spending time naming tourney players after characters on The Simpsons.
This game was absolutely my jam back in the day. Played it with my older brother for hours just to see if we could get hole-in-ones in Par 3 holes, or even Par 4 holes. Love it to this day!
I haven't played them all, but to be NES Open is the best golf game on the system. It plays well but also has a level of presentation above other games, even ones I like, such as Lee Trevino's Fighting Golf.
I bought a TurboGrafx and Turbo Express in a box with a stack of HuCards from a second hand shop in the early 2000s. My college roommate thought I was nuts buying such old stuff. He worked at Golfsmith at the time while taking classes. Then proceeded to fail them all staying up way too late playing Power Golf.
Good review! It's the original Mario Golf! This actually looks like a pretty fun and relaxing game. Though, why haven't Steve, Mark, Tony, and Billy been in any of the other Mario Golf games?
I remember playing this game back then, it think it was in 1997 or something. It was before I got a Nintendo 64 anyway. It was an old trash for the epoch, but I had a blast with that Nes game. I'm curious to see how it fares in 2023 when I'll watch this video. I love your channel by the way. Video reviews tend to get longer and longer these days. I love how synthetic the videos are on this channel and there's a bit of humor too. Great stuff.
I would just play that first golf game you showed mostly afternoon along with the tea. It was just chill and in between handing the controller to my brother to hit some shots. No background music only the club hitting the ball and bounce sound. It was oddly calming.
A friend of mine rented this game in the early 90's and i was like "really, golf?". But it turned out it was an icredible fun game and it made golf games one of our favorite sport titles. That said, we always like the wacky golf games like Mario Golf or Everybody's golf more then the serious golf games!
I remember enjoying the black box Golf, and I also enjoyed Lee Trevino's Fighting Golf for NES. I was aware of open tournament, but I just didn't know it actually was a pretty good golf game.
Still have my original cib copy I bought from the bargain bin at KB Toy along with Rampart, Punch-Out, Kirby, NES Play Action Football and a Top Loader when the NES was completely off the radar. Still enjoy this game.
Very fond of this game and the original Golf as predecessors to the GameBoy Color Mario Golf with its 'RPG' mode and perfect gameplay that's almost exactly cut from this one.
Haha I love this!! Alex, your sports knowledge and commentary is outstanding! Always love the “sports with Alex” segment on drunkfried!! Anyway I fall into the category of golf dork also. I somehow skipped this one all these years! Btw my favorite is PGA Tour III on Genesis ! Take care !
I don't play golf, follow golf, or engage with it in any mwaningful way, but I had this game as a kid and played the crap out of it. Learning how top spin and backspin affected the ball in wind conditions turned this into a strategy game.
This was one of my favorite games when I was a kid! My uncle and I would lend the game back and forth and try to beat one another's best playbacks, and knock each other off the top 5. The memories I have playing this one were like formative experiences for me as a child. All the different colors, the menus... bringing money to the Donkey Kong-like banker lol. Good times.
Interesting to see just how many of the same bones are in later Mario Golf titles. Same swing system, same greens with the arrows, same zoom in on hole when the ball's close, same saving of best shots
It came to a point where just the sound of your voice is chilling. Sorry for the creepiness. Another fantastic review. Not that I needed it, I've got this gave and I've played it. But watching anyway. Thank you, take care!
Growing up as a kid I have fond memories of playing both of these NES golf games because they were the games my uncle had so when we would visit my choices were golf,burger time,jeopardy or wheel of fortune. So obviously I played alot of golf and burger time whenever we visited. Next time I see him I'm gonna have to ask if he still has the old system and games packed away, he's got the dementia so I gotta act fast before the memory is gone 4 ev er, 4 ev e, 4 ev er(sandlot)
I just basically completed Mario Golf on the GBC and had a blast doing it. Although it was a grind sometimes haha, but it looks like it is a descendant of this one on the NES. I have been digging golf games in my recent years without knowing why until you described them as being cozy, and now it all makes sense, so yeah I may need to check this one out!
I love seeing some love for golf games! So many great golf games from console to PC. Congrats, there's nothing like getting a hole-in-one. BTW, Cory no longer has that epic stache. 😢Mama Mia! Also, do you think NES Open is tough??? Try Family Computer Golf: Japan Course for the Famicom Disk System. I want to upload gameplay but it will probably be 20 over... on a good day. Brutal!
My favorite Golf game is John Daily's Prostroke Golf. Its probably not the best game. But multiplayer on the same console is better than most I've tried.
Hey i got a story... I dont know if this ever happened to anyone else. When i was a kid in the 90s i had a super small (like a 15 inch" color tv from the late 80s to play my games on. And some random evenings, i would get nes games on one of the channels. Later i learned that the NES's "Y" cable on the back of the tv is actually sending radio signals for the images. I am totally guessing that my tv was picking one of my neighbors plays...... It couldn't have been a tv channel since it had no other connection other then my own NES. Reason why im writing this is coz it was nes GOLF that was on tv. I will never forget that. Did this ever happen to any of you?
I don't play many sports games at all but golf can hit the spot. I've been enjoying pangya fantasy golf for psp, it's a Korean production with rpg elements
I had quite a lot of fun playing Mario Golf: Advance Tour. I suppose I can try the ones on the 16 bit system someday (since I am not likely to go back to 8 bit systems)
highly recommend the gbc mario golf games (mario golf and mobile golf) if you like this format! imo they just feel more fun and snappy than the gba version.
You know, I don't care for golf in real life, but I like golf video games. Used to play a lot of golden tee in college, and played a lot of wii sports golf with my family. We still fire it up from time to time. And there was this pc game when I was a kid...can't remember the name, but it had bobcat goldthwait as the announcer and I enjoyed that.
I'd have to say that this is the Ray Floyd of TH-cam reviews, and more specifically, the Nick Faldo of NES Open Tournament Golf reviews.. and no shame in calling back that gorgeous ace on US 10, Fozzy. Fun video, and thanks for the shoutout!
I'm surprised to hear SNES Drunk is into golf. How posh!!
But the video is nice and the graphics are both smooth and surprisingly detailed for a NES game! Makes me wonder which golf games on Sega Genesis are worth playing 😊
Have a great rest of your day

Those close to the hole animations are gorgeous for an NES game.

Something about the old NES and SNES golf games just hits the spot
@@Vulpas and GBA.

@@emaheiwa8174 too far
PGA Tour Golf on SNES is still the best golf video game ever made. The controls are similar to this game.
I have great memories of playing this one with my dad growing up.
Not this game, but my dad and I used to play Soccer on NES. :)
I've never played an actual round of golf, but I love golf games. My favorite one growing up was Hal's Hole in One Golf in the SNES.
Id could watch his golf reviews daily
Real golf is not easy. I’ve been playing since I was 7 and still have not broke 75 on any round. The closest I got was a 82.
@@The.Original.Potatocakes "Since you were 7". Tells us you had rich parents and came from a white collar background. Get outta here, rich boy.
Ball golf is one of the most difficult games. I prefer disc golf. I consider disc golf the best low impact sport.
NES golf is one of those games that brings happy tears while playing it. I have a lot of memories playing NES golf with my grandpa whenever I was visiting my grandparents. I still enjoy playing it even after he passed away back in 2001
You have selected... POWER DRIVE!
I'd love to see a "best of" for NES and SNES golf games. That or just a list of all the golf games with you picking your favorite for each system.
His channel actually has a great compilation video that features several SNES golf games reviewed. It's quite informative. Title of the video is "Every Super Nintendo Golf Game - SNES drunk"

Now THAT was some next level passion for a retro game!
You might already know this, but Clubhouse Games on the Switch also recreates the original NES Golf course for its mingolf game.
Only started playing it on the NES online console. Found it fun and challenging. I started playing golf games around the time of the Tiger Woods games so this oldie was kinda refreshing.
Nothing like a SNESDrunk morning 😊
Agreed
Took the words right out of my mouth, lol.
It's a SNESHangover in the AM
I never played this one, but I did play Lee Trevino's Fighting Golf on the NES.
You mean I can't blame the unrealistic physics and bad controls for my mediocre tournament performances? Great video as always! I hope your enthusiasm will bring even more people to this game!

Neo Turfmasters is one of my favorite games, it’s sooo good, and I don’t even like golf! On the green!
“Billy Idol if you’re into disco.”😂😂😂😂
In Japan, this was the Mario Open, and was the first game with that attribute.
Hahaha, wasn't expecting an exciting hole-in-one being done and narrated by SNES Drunk himself
I love NES Open and grew up with it.
I would love to play in your tournament.
Ever watch the world record speed runs for this game?
Crazy stuff!
I know nothing of actual pro golf, but I played this game so much as a kid. Love seeing it showup on my feed!
SNESDrunk, Cinderella story out of nowhere, former greenskeeper now about to become NES Open champion.
Still have my original cib copy I bought from the bargain bin at KB Toy along with Rampart, Punch-Out, Kirby, NES Play Action Football and a Top Loader when the NES was completely off the radar. Still enjoy this game.
Hell yes! Great job with the hole-in-one man! Awesome video as always.
Good vid. I have fond memories of the black box golf, never knew this other one existed. Yes you are a golf dork
The Corey Pavin reference has me 100% sold.
Very fond of this game and the original Golf as predecessors to the GameBoy Color Mario Golf with its 'RPG' mode and perfect gameplay that's almost exactly cut from this one.
This game may also represent the first portrait of Peach rendered in-game. IE it's the first time we get to see her full face in a video game! Nice!
Haha I love this!! Alex, your sports knowledge and commentary is outstanding! Always love the “sports with Alex” segment on drunkfried!! Anyway I fall into the category of golf dork also. I somehow skipped this one all these years! Btw my favorite is PGA Tour III on Genesis ! Take care !
I don't play golf, follow golf, or engage with it in any mwaningful way, but I had this game as a kid and played the crap out of it. Learning how top spin and backspin affected the ball in wind conditions turned this into a strategy game.
This was one of my favorite games when I was a kid! My uncle and I would lend the game back and forth and try to beat one another's best playbacks, and knock each other off the top 5. The memories I have playing this one were like formative experiences for me as a child. All the different colors, the menus... bringing money to the Donkey Kong-like banker lol. Good times.
My brothers and I had this on our NES, and we played the heck out of it, with our Dad, too.
If there wasn't Neo Turfmasters this would probably be my favorite golf game.
You could be a golf announcer
The Third click on The Swing Would be Accuracy rather than Aim, which is set before the swing. :) Great Vid!!!
Hearing SnesDrunk rattle off golf knowledge made me realize what it must be like to hear me talk about retro RPGs
Interesting to see just how many of the same bones are in later Mario Golf titles. Same swing system, same greens with the arrows, same zoom in on hole when the ball's close, same saving of best shots
Snes drunk's voice is like the first sip of coffee in the morning, when it hits you feel right.
I remember playing this game with my dad growing up
You are the reason these old games are still great!

I always play this game, twenty plus years and is still in the regular rotation.
Definitely still worth playing.
