It is an expansion of the [[Nintendo Entertainment System]] [[Golf|game of the same name]], inserting aspects from the Japan-only sequels ''[[Golf: Japan Course]]'' and ''[[Golf: U.S. Course]]''. As with the previous games, the player character is [[Mario]] or a lookalike, with player one having light skin and a dark cap, while player two has dark skin and a light cap. Mario is absent from the Japanese cover art, which instead features a group of generic characters; in the Western cover art, however, Mario appears reenacting {{media link|Golf Key Artwork.png|the Japanese and European artwork}} for the original ''Golf''. On the [[Game Boy Color]] and [[Game Boy Advance]], backgrounds and heads-up-display graphics are colored green, while character and object sprites are colored a reddish orange. | ||

Most of the base gameplay is reused from the original NES game. However, it retrofits aspects from later NES golf games, such as trees acting as solid obstacles that must be gone over or around, differentiation between fairway and rough zones, and putting greens having multiple ways to push the ball. All of the original game's clubs return, and the game contains 36 different holes split between two courses: Japan and U.S.A. In the Japan Course, forested areas act as out-of-bounds zones, while in the U.S.A. course, they are treated as standard rough spots. Unlike previous games, it lacks the golfer-based viewing field, with him instead being shown on a more zoomed-in version of the bird's-eye-view map. The view can be switched between the zoomed-in map, the full map, and a view of the green via the {{button|GB|A}} button. Unlike the original, the player can hit the ball in any angle regardless of view. Additionally, by hitting the {{button|GB|L}} button when the club hits the ball, the player can make it spin backwards, which can be useful for preventing it from rolling too far. The hole's exact position on the green varies between four possible positions | Most of the base gameplay is reused from the original NES game.

In two-player, the golfers try to get a higher score than the other, with a winner being chosen after the total scores are far enough apart or all the holes in a course have been completed. If the score is tied at the end of all holes, a "sudden death" mode starts, looping back to the first hole and playing through again until a player gets a better score on any of the holes, ending the competition in their favor. | ||
