Dude, are you a radio announcer or something like that? You have a nice voice.

I don't understand why everyone hates the typeface. It is pretty close to what Mario Golf on GBA used:
this is garbage also

I searched for Golf Story on the eshop and it's like the game doesn't exist. No trailers, screenshots, nothing. Kinda sad considering how hyped I am.

Isn't it in the Coming Soon section?

I really dig it.
It probably was, actually. It sounds like the people that handle video for them might still be busy with their TV show (or at least this was what they said was the reasoning for slow archiving a few weeks ago?) so it'll be up... eventually.
Could be up with an article tomorrow; could be a while. Can't tell till it's up.
Glad I'm not the only one. The dialog bubbles drove me insane in the trailer. It's like someone photoshopped them in.

He's probably the King of a country and not telling us.
Color me shocked but incredibly happy that the game turned out well. The silence and lack of impressions is usually a pretty bad sign. I'm a fan of the old Camelot sport RPGs and glad this seems to be a success in the same vein. Tennis next please. Will get when it's live. Picross at the same time too. Damn.
Agreed that the font isn't great. Smooth font clashes with the pixel aesthetic. Would've loved a pixelized font.
Noticed that the sprites of the trees/bushes distort in correlation with wind direction. Lovely touch.

Im cool with the font.
same, the UI in general being all 'HD' really clashes with the graphics. kinda wished they took their pixel art aesthetic and applied it to the UI too. the game's graphics are well done and I have no doubt they could have made great looking interface icons too. baffles me a little to be honest.
I have the game, the font looks fine to me on the screen and I can see why they went in this direction; the size changes and the bubbles tilt to emphasize the characters' emotions and such. It's actually really creative. I'm not sure I've seen anything like it done before.
It wouldn't have been possible with pixel font, or at least it wouldn't look as good.

Waiting for the inevitable complaining about the menu image
Quoting from GB thread for those who want Patrick's video.
Its completely out of place aestheticly. I dont think anyone would pass on the game simply because of the font, though. Continue to be amazed.

Just bought Steamworld Dig 2 and then tomorrow Picross and Golf Story. Then Stardew Valley whenever that comes out.
Those are some solid purchases. SD2 is pure metroidvania magic.
And I'm cool with the bubbles/font manipulation but dislike the font itself.
Gotta cover all the bases
Wrong game, that's baseball story. This is Golf story.
Switch folders when? Hmmm deja vu...
I swear to god if this thread is just going to be full of golf puns, I'm Out.
Would've been easily possible. I know there's games that have done similar, although struggling to name any.

We have seen the icon and it looks really nice.
Every single game that uses HD rumble it also works for the Pro Controller.

Around 495 yards.
I hope not, that's barely one par 5 hole.
Count me as another that thinks the font is OK. If they just kept it the same size without italics/bold, maybe that would be a problem, but from what I've seen they're using it pretty well as a way to impact the conversation.

I'm aware, however it's much harder for me to notice HD rumble with the pro controller as opposed to the joycons. Honestly, with the pro controller it just feels like any other controller that shakes.

Hahah. Hidden folders maybe?. If I could just move the tiles around I can tack it on at the end.
Woo! 11am in Minnesota!
Oh darn... Is that how that works? I guess I'll get some shut eye and enjoy it when I get out of work tomorrow then...
Geez some of you guys power through games. I haven't even bought it yet
