Item Description
Before he became Nintendo's president, Satoru Iwata was a young programmer at HAL Laboratory, and he programmed Golf himself. Released on the Famicom in 1984 and part of the NES's original North American lineup in 1985, it is the game that taught console golf how to swing.
Golf put a swing meter measuring both power and accuracy at the center of the game, the basic system countless golf games have built on ever since. Choose a club, read the wind, line up your shot against the overhead map of the hole, and watch the ball sail toward the green across a full 18-hole course. Play a solo round of stroke play, or bring a second player in for two-player stroke play or head-to-head match play. The stocky golfer in plain clothes was later identified in Nintendo material as Mario, an early appearance from before his look was settled.
Golf mattered to Nintendo in ways that outlived its era. It returned as one of the collectible NES games in Animal Crossing on GameCube, and a hidden emulated version was later found tucked inside early Nintendo Switch system software, playable only on July 11, the anniversary of Iwata's passing, by mimicking the hand gesture he made famous in Nintendo Direct presentations. Few games carry a tribute like that. On original hardware it is a relaxed, thoughtful round of 8-bit golf and a direct line back to the first days of the NES.

About the game
Golf is a game for the NES based on the sport of the same name. The golfer has been identified as Mario in supplemental material, albeit not wearing his traditional shirt and overalls. The gameplay of Golf is relatively simple. The player is given a ball, and a map on the right side of the screen shows the hole that they must hit the ball into. The obstacles on the way are also displayed on the map. The player will get more points depending on how many times they hit the ball to get it into the hole. Many different types of clubs are also available to choose from by pressing Up/Down on the + Control Pad.
