'''''Golf: Japan Course''''' is a Japan-exclusive golf game released for the [[Family Computer Disk System]] on February 21, 1987. It stars [[Mario]] and [[Luigi]] and is considered the earliest entry in the ''[[Mario Golf (series)|Mario Golf]]'' series. It is similar in gameplay to the earlier ''[[Golf]]'', though with polished mechanics. The holes in the game are fictional. The game received a companion title a few months later as ''[[Golf: U.S. Course]]'', which also had fictional holes and improves even further on the mechanics. As with most FDS games, side A of the disk is reserved for menus and saving scores, while side B is used for the gameplay.
==Gameplay==
[[File:FCGJPC Gameplay.png|thumb|left|Mario on the first hole]]
The gameplay is similar to the original ''Golf'', though new features are added to improve the immersion and quality-of-life. There is now a distinction between fairways and rough grass, and trees now act as solid obstacles rather than simply an indicator of out-of-bounds areas; the out-of-bounds areas now have a clear boundary surrounding densely-packed forest instead. There are four levels for rough grass and three for sand bunkers, with each making the ball more difficult to hit far. The player can now swing in any direction regardless of whether they are on the green or not. The greens themselves can now push the ball in multiple directions rather than only a single direction at a time, and each hole may appear in one of three positions on each green. The player can move away from the ball to do a practice swing by pressing {{button|NES|select}}, or view the current score sheet by pressing {{button|NES|start}}. To change clubs, the player now needs to hold down {{button|NES|B}} and press {{button|NES|pad}} up or down; pressing {{button|NES|pad}} left or right while doing that switches between one of three swing speeds. The middle "2" speed is closest to what the swing speed in ''Golf'' is, while the default "1" is slower and "3" is faster.

</gallery>
{{multiframe|[[File:Golf JC P2 Luigi.png]][[File:Golf JC P2 COMP1.png]]|bg=gray|Luigi and COMP1}}
There are four game modes, which can be chosen between by pressing {{button|NES|pad}} left and right or {{button|NES|select}} at the top option of the main menu:
*Mario Stroke Play: Mario plays by himself.
*2 Player Stroke Play: Mario and Luigi play alongside each other.
*Mario Match Play (not available in the gold editions): Mario plays against the computer opponent, called "COMP1," which is a palette swap of the brothers. He wears black overalls and hat over a brown shirt and shoes.
*2 Player Match Play: Mario and Luigi play against each other.
There are four slots to save scores (represented by balloons, the strings being cut by a crab when overwriting) with blank slots recorded as 900.
===Clubs===
The draws listed are as they are on the tee or fairway with no wind resistance. The four levels of rough grass and three levels of bunker sand all detract varying amounts from it. Swinging at a higher speed usually increases it, but runs a greater risk of losing control on the ball's curve.

[[File:FDS Japan Course.png|thumb|100px|The blue disk]]
The game comes on a blue disk, meaning it is compatible with the Disk Fax, a device found in public places across Japan such as department stores. These machines would send the player's saved games and high score information to [[Nintendo]]. Nintendo held a contest centered around this game, and winners received one of two special versions of this game that came on a gold disk.<ref>{{cite|url=pony.velvet.jp/fcdisk/fmcmdskw28.html|title=◆オリジナルコース入りゴールデンカードはコースが2種類！|publisher=Family Computer Disk System Art Database|accessdate=January 22, 2021|language=ja}}</ref> Both versions are harder, replacing the course with new, more challenging holes.

==Maps==
Each hole can appear in three locations, which is picked depending on how many strokes were made in the previous holes; this number does not change the hole in any regular interval, ie, per each swing, but instead uses more complex measures to determine it. In some holes, mainly in the Prize Card variants, all water on the map is randomly replaced with sand, which is determined at the game's beginning.

Golf: Japan Course is a Japan-exclusive golf game released for the Family Computer Disk System on February 21, 1987. It stars Mario and Luigi and is considered the earliest entry in the Mario Golf series. It is similar in gameplay to the earlier Golf, though with polished mechanics. The holes in the game are fictional. The game received a companion title a few months later as Golf: U.S. Course, which also had fictional holes and improves even further on the mechanics. As with most FDS games, side A of the disk is reserved for menus and saving scores, while side B is used for the gameplay.

Gameplay

Gameplay of Golf: Japan Course
Mario on the first hole

The gameplay is similar to the original Golf, though new features are added to improve the immersion and quality-of-life. There is now a distinction between fairways and rough grass, and trees now act as solid obstacles rather than simply an indicator of out-of-bounds areas; the out-of-bounds areas now have a clear boundary surrounding densely-packed forest instead. There are four levels for rough grass and three for sand bunkers, with each making the ball more difficult to hit far. The player can now swing in any direction regardless of whether they are on the green or not. The greens themselves can now push the ball in multiple directions rather than only a single direction at a time, and each hole may appear in one of three positions on each green. The player can move away from the ball to do a practice swing by pressing Select Button, or view the current score sheet by pressing Start Button. To change clubs, the player now needs to hold down B Button and press +Control Pad up or down; pressing +Control Pad left or right while doing that switches between one of three swing speeds. The middle "2" speed is closest to what the swing speed in Golf is, while the default "1" is slower and "3" is faster.

Luigi and COMP1

There are four game modes, which can be chosen between by pressing +Control Pad left and right or Select Button at the top option of the main menu:

  • Mario Stroke Play: Mario plays by himself.
  • 2 Player Stroke Play: Mario and Luigi play alongside each other.
  • Mario Match Play (not available in the gold editions): Mario plays against the computer opponent, called "COMP1," which is a palette swap of the brothers. He wears black overalls and hat over a brown shirt and shoes.
  • 2 Player Match Play: Mario and Luigi play against each other.

There are four slots to save scores (represented by balloons, the strings being cut by a crab when overwriting) with blank slots recorded as 900.

Clubs

The draws listed are as they are on the tee or fairway with no wind resistance. The four levels of rough grass and three levels of bunker sand all detract varying amounts from it. Swinging at a higher speed usually increases it, but runs a greater risk of losing control on the ball's curve.

Contest and alternate editions

Family Computer Disk System disk for Golf: Japan Course
The blue disk

The game comes on a blue disk, meaning it is compatible with the Disk Fax, a device found in public places across Japan such as department stores. These machines would send the player's saved games and high score information to Nintendo. Nintendo held a contest centered around this game, and winners received one of two special versions of this game that came on a gold disk.[1] Both versions are harder, replacing the course with new, more challenging holes. Around 80,000 contestants submitted their Mario Stroke Play scores with the national winner beating the rest with his cumulative score of 87.[2][3] Contestants who had the same score were ranked by when their submission was received.

Around 5,000 runners-up and raffle winners received the Professional Course gold disk (white sticker), which came in a Diskun case. The redesigned title screen removes "Family Computer" at the top and adds「入賞」(nyūshō, "prize-winning") at the bottom.[4] It is mildly more difficult.

The top 100 contestants received the Champions' Course gold disk (yellow sticker), which came in a luxury case along with a gold plaque with the winner's name and rank inscribed. On the game's title screen are the contestant's name and rank, making each disk unique.[5] The Champions' Course is much more difficult[6] and one of the rarest games Nintendo ever made.

Maps

Each hole can appear in three locations, which is picked depending on how many strokes were made in the previous holes; this number does not change the hole in any regular interval, ie, per each swing, but instead uses more complex measures to determine it. In some holes, mainly in the Prize Card variants, all water on the map is randomly replaced with sand, which is determined at the game's beginning.
