Nintendo fans rejoice as Mario Golf revealed for the Switch Online
For the newer generation of gamers, in case they don’t know about it somehow, Mario Golf is a 1999 title developed by Camelot Software Planning. Originally it was released for the retro N64 console.
In the game, the character of Mario plays golf with his friends, as well as his enemies, on multiple themed courses. There are additional characters also such as Luigi, Princess Peach, Yoshi, and Wario. On the other hand, the Nintendo classic further introduces Plum, Sonny, Harry, Maple, and Charlie, all created by Camelot.
And now, Mario Golf will make its appearance for all the gamers of the modern era who own the Nintendo Switch. Starting April 15th, they will be able to enjoy the N64 game, which will arrive as part of the Switch Expansion Pack.
