Is Mario really the golfer?
Is the golfer in this game really Mario? In Captain Rainbow, it is clearly confirmed that he isn't Mario. There he's called "Ossan" (literally "Old Man"). Click on the golfer on this map of the island and a window pops up, it can be seen that he is supposed to be the golfer from Golf (of course, he looks very different in Captain Rainbow, like many of the Nintendo characters). I looked up the American manual for Golf, and I couldn't find Mario's name anywhere. Is there any official source that confirms that the golfer is Mario? I read that this was mentioned in a player's guide, but we all know that those guides don't always tell the truth. I speak about the NES version, of course there's no doubt that Mario is the golfer in the Game Boy version. --Grandy02 16:55, 22 August 2008 (EDT)
- It said he was in the old Mario Mania Players' Guide. Thanos6 03:51, 24 August 2008 (EDT)
- Well, that's the source I read about where he was called Mario. But is he named Mario anywhere else, besides player's guides? As I told, I couldn't find Mario's name in the manual. If the golfer is really Mario, why should they make a different character out of him in Captain Rainbow? --Grandy02 11:30, 24 August 2008 (EDT)
This is not Mario's first sport outing.
The first line of this article states that this is the first sports game that Mario took part in. I think this is wrong, because I'm pretty sure Donkey Kong Hockey was released first. And that one clearly states that it's Mario playing against Donkey Kong. --Jomingo 15:44, 27 August 2008 (EDT)
Article should be taken down from list of games?
- If the character in this game was retconned to not be Mario, then the game no longer has any connection to the Mario universe. Shouldn't it be taken down from the list of Mario games? --Xell Khaar 04:48, 15 October 2008 (EDT)
