Tee off on two 18-hole courses, selecting clubs and controlling your swing across three distinct overhead views.

Golf was released for the Famicom/NES in Japan on May 1, 1984, which is the earliest commercial release of this exact game version on the NES platform and also the original release year of the game.

About Golf

Golf is a sports simulation for the NES that offers both single and multiplayer rounds across two full 18-hole courses. The experience is built around a challenging simulation of the sport, giving players direct control over club selection, stance adjustment, and swing execution.

To facilitate play, the perspective shifts between three distinct overhead camera views. These provide a long-range look at the entire hole, a medium-range shot from the ball's position, and a close-up of the green for putting.
