Okay, turns out that there are 4 Castle Club courses and 6 Mario Golf courses. I can finally confirm this. All have 10 challenges each.
The last Castle Club course is Sky Island and to unlock it in Mario Golf mode, and thus unlock its challenges, you have to
So happy to finally have that figured out for the OP. ^_^

beat the 9-hole One-on On-putt challenge in Castle Club mode.
"Let's a play! Let's a play! Let's a play!...... Let's a play!"
Are there other characters that are less obnoxious when aiming?

Yea, it's wonderful! Plus you can play the tournament as many times as you want until it expires to improve your score. Online golf done right, bravo Nintendo.
Don't forget to take part in Worldwide Tournament 1 to get the Game Boy set, folks.
How do you get into private tournements?!?

Just go to the Quick Play menu, tournaments at the bottom, pick Private and enter the code.

No chance. It is indeed the latter. I've left mine at home in sleep mode halfway through one at the moment, even.
Depends on the tournament limits. The current European ones are all Mario only, while our EarlyBird one is set to no limit. For what it's worth, I bet you can get your Mii to be pretty broken too.
Awesome thank you!
Sounds like Golden Sun alright
Right, I'm off then. :O

Cancelled my physical copy pre-order a few days ago but now I want to buy it on the eshop because I don't know what's wrong with me.
Is it the kind of game you want to have available at all times or should I order another cart?

Yes, this is the type of game you'd love in your 3DS instead of cart.
Got a Handicap of 9. Lay it on my guys, I got the worst on Gaf right?
I did manage to drop it to 6 after one tournament though.

It seems everyone gets a handicap of 9 after the practice round.

I picked this up at midnight along with the Season Pass, Kirby and the rest are going to have to wait a few weeks.
So far, so good. Progression is pretty unclear, but I've had fun exploring the Castle Club (outside through the back is course access/progression tournaments, down the stairs is online tournaments, best I can figure so far) and going through the motions with the Forest course. My handicap started at 9 and is down to 0 after three rounds through the course, the 0 achieved when I won the championship with -14.
I think I'll give the GAF tourneys a shot. Haven't played a Mario Golf game since obsessing over the GBC edition for a year when it was new, so I'm not expecting to do well against some of you (I've only had two eagles so far). Still, the idea of playing with you all is fun!

There is. Called NeoGAF EarlyBird Tournament, it's an 18-hole stroke tour of Forest Course, with no limit on characters and no items. A nice gentle entry into the tournament world!
The code is 19-1168-9943-8813
As of 3 hours ago, the results are:
Hannah / -19
Katze / -18
Godot / -14
Xater / -12
Pira-tan / -12
andymoogle / -11
WelshGamer / -8
Fluxx
/ -8Robin / -7
It's one of these game that would have no problem doing cross-platform online multiplayer. Some day, someone will make multiplayer right.

Well, I'm torn between :
28 physical copy
40 digital copy (non resellable) with free GBC Mario Golf
Keep playing free HSG on Vita
The first option.
I got a Vita purely for Tearaway and HSG, so believe me when I say this is every bit as good as HSG. The online mode in MG is just sublime.

I just purchased this and the season pass. Going into this with little info and I'm excited. I feel like I enjoyed Mario Golf on the Gamecube. I will definitely love this game.

I went for option 1. The fully async tournaments is a reason enough to buy for me.

It feels the same to me, gameplay wise. Maybe there are some minor differences, but I couldn't really tell you what those are. It's definitely just Mario Golf.
It has more courses, though only a few of them are full 18-hole courses. However, if you choose to get the DLC, you get all of the N64 courses remade too, taking it way above Toadstool Tour for content.

You guys and your tournaments are making me want to buy this now. And I swore to myself I wouldn't buy any software this month

This and Mario Kart 8 make May a beautiful month. And both the games have amazing online modes. Nintendo really cleaning out my wallet this month.

Can someone explain how tournaments in this game work, with the codes and all? And communities?
Might help speed up my purchase

Tournaments with codes are private tournaments that players have created. After setting criteria, such as which course is played on, which characters are available and, most importantly, when it will end, a code is generated. Other players putting in the code can take part in that tournament.
Players can have as many goes as they want in a tournament right up until it expires. When it ends, a ceremony awards the player in first place with a significant amount of coins (depending on how many people took part in the tournament).
Also, while playing a tournament, you see the shots of other players that have taken part. It's pretty cool!
Communities, on the other hand, are a simply quick way to find single matches against others in the group.
Edit: There are also public tournaments created by Nintendo, which offer items for taking part such as the Game Boy clothing set or the Callaway gear as detailed above.

So then what's the advantage of adding a bunch of people as friends?
