Mario Golf: Toadstool Tour (known in Japan as Mario Golf: Family Tour) is the Gamecube successor to the Mario Golf games and is the first of the Mario sports game to be released for the Gamecube (just as Mario Golf had been first on the Nintendo 64).
Story[edit]
The game does not have an overarching story, but it does notably have an extended intro which acts as a type of in-game short. Most of the characters appear playing golf, with the focus being on Wario and Waluigi's hijinks and their attempts to escape Bowser after accidentally inspiring his wrath. The short ends with the three of them being charred by a Bob-Omb explosion. A similar type of intro was later made for Mario Power Tennis.
Gameplay[edit]
This game readjusts the gameplay from the previous game and boasts Gamecube graphics as well as various new characters, both initially available and hidden. There are a variety of single player and multiplayer modes for up to four players, and the player could choose whether to play on normal golf courses or ones with Mario-related obstacles. The Tournament mode is the standard single-player golf competition. There are several other modes with variations on golf games and special challenges that can be completed to unlock more content.
Like Mario Golf, Toadstool Tour has a handheld counterpart that it can connect with, but using the GBA-Gamecube Link Cable. This process could be used to transfer the player characters Neil and Ella from the Advance Tour to the Gamecube game.
Playable Characters[edit]
The following characters are playable from the start of the game:
- Mario
- Luigi
- Princess Peach
- Princess Daisy
- Yoshi
- Koopa Troopa
- Donkey Kong
- Diddy Kong
- Wario
- Waluigi
- Birdo
- Bowser
The following characters have to be unlocked:
As mentioned above, Neil and Ella could also be transferred from Advance Tour.
Legacy[edit]
Sequels[edit]
It was accompanied by Mario Golf: Advance Tour, which serves as a companion game. The next Mario Golf game would not come until 2014, when Mario Golf: Open Tour was released for the Nintendo 3DS.
