Mario returns to the green in Mario Gold: World Tour coming this May to the Nintendo 3DS...
Mario Golf: World Tour is scheduled to launch May 2 on Nintendo 3DS. The game was originally slated for 2013, but faced delays. This is good news for fans of Mario spin-offs and Nintendo, which has been facing trouble of late due to less than stellar sales stats.
In addition to previously announced multiplayer features, the game will also include the Castle Club, a single-player clubhouse area that offers a variety of areas to help players hone their skills. The Castle Club includes golf courses, tournaments, training areas, shops, locker rooms and a café. A training area lets them focus on specific aspects of their game, such as putting. Players can customize their Mii characters using items sold at the shop, including clubs, golf balls and clothing. Different combinations of gear can affect a player’s performance.
Sound like the Italian plumber turned golfer you know and love?
Is releasing more popular first party titles Nintendo's plan to get back on track? I sure hope they get SOMETHING going.
