Just watched a few minutes and skipped through because I don't want to spoil anything, but looks nice!
Golf part seems true to the 2D classics as well from what I saw. No behind the back view. Just the top down.

When I read "dramatic story" in the description, I was a little worried they'd go overboard with some dour writing, but I'm pleasantly surprised at its sense of humor. Absolutely can't wait to play it now.

I mean when they don't actually call it drama, but GOLF DRAMA, that's basically a flag telling you "this game is somewhat of a comedy". In fact putting golf as any sort of descriptor implies humor.
Except Golf 2. Golf Without Limits.

Coming soon page has it.
Yep, Switch didn't have a AAA release I was interested in this month, but Golf Story, Steam World Dig 2, and Picross more than make up for it.

Have a bit of birthday money, and it's going to this plus Dig 2 and Sonic Mania. Very excited.

You guys hyping it up should chill. We dont know anything about this game apart from a brief trailer. Not saying that this might not turn out great but lets be real here!
The next Stardew Valley?
Earthbound with golf?
Come on. Its like you want to set yourself up for disappointment.
That being said, Im looking forward to playing it. Hope its good!

I agree, although I think it will do pretty well. Switch right now seems to have a bit of a 2013ish steam vibe where there's a non-saturated open-minded market
First 30 minutes of the game:

I'm not saying anything about Stardew or Earthbound, but I like Mario Golf GBC and GBA better than them anyway.... So I'll be happy!
I recently found myself utterly addicted to Mario Golf on the GBA. I had never played a MG game before and just found the mechanics really satisfying.
Needless to say I will buy this game day one if it turns out to be anywhere near as good. What is the pedigree of this developer? Do we think they can live up to the standards of a Camelot golf game?

They literally came out of nowhere. We know nothing about them. Mystery people. Apparently Australian.
Game looks good though.

Is anyone even going to be reviewing this game. The release seems so sudden and quiet I'm not sure there will even be any on day one at least.

Ah, I didn't know about that footage. Thanks for sharing!
But now you put me at a quandry! I want to watch that... but at the same time I don't want to spoil myself :-/
Maybe just a little peek for 5 mins or so...

I'm really hoping the game is almost as good as people are hyping it up to be. I've been playing Mario Golf for the GBC via 3DS VC as of late and if it's anything remotely like that, I'm in.
Yeah, I only scanned it so I didn't spoil myself too much, but this was the sequence I felt they nailed the tone at the very least:

That OT title
Worst case scenario you can always play the superior Mario Golf Advance Tour on GBA.

I hope there's some kind of tutorial? I am golf inept.
It looks like the opening takes you through the basics.
They're working on it. Who knows if anyone will finish by tomorrow.

I'm waiting for reviews, if only as an excuse to save some money seeing as my backlog is going to increase by 21 games on Friday.
Fixed, thanks.

I mean if they want to make sport games that much then sport rpgs would be fine too

Saw someone on reddit claiming to have spend 2 hrs on the first course before moving on to the next, this game has 8 courses, so if hes correct this will be a 10-20 hr game.

and thats only mainlining right, side story stuff should bulk out another few hours I'd imagine.

I'll probably day 1 it at such a low price, but I still want to see reviews. I don't really know what the game actually is.

I've been playing for a little over an hour and I can already say...buy it. It's the Mario Golf RPG you've wanted since the GBA.
Damn, man. You're tempting me.
I just picked up Thimbleweed Park for my Switch this morning.
