Nintendo Wii Super Swing Golf

This is Nintendo Wii’s Super Swing Golf and Game People have taken a closer look - “Season 2 in the UK, the follow up to Europe’s PangYa Golf. Despite a confusing name change they prove that cartoony graphics don’t mean poor controls. Temco firmly grasp the nettle and deliver a solid real golf swing mechanic that will give Tiger Woods a run for its money.

As I have said elsewhere, golf games used to be all about the look of the fairway, the run of the ball on the green, the pre-hole camera fly throughs and even the chirping of localised birdsong as you eyed up your shot. These days however, I have been realising that (particularly on the Wii) they are all about the swing mechanic.

To release a golf game on the Wii is to live in light of Nintendo’s Wii-Sports master class in the golf swing mechanic. Happily, Temco have understood this and sought to extend and enhance the experience rather than stick ridgedly to the older trigger point controls seen in the surprisingly mediocre We Love Golf from Camelot.

As its name suggest then, Super Swing Golf joins Wii-Sports Golf and Tiger Woods in the pursuit of extracting reliable one-to-one golf swing controls out of the Wii-mote. And in light of the upcoming MotionPlus extension (that will give the Wii more accurate controls) this is a goal Nintendo both approve of and comprehend its technical difficulty”.
