As for Mario Golf. Loved the first one, but I still haven't finished Tiger Woods, so I will hold off until it hits the clearance rack, or half price at Sam's Club.

Not as cheap as Circuit City but Mario Golf at Target has an exclusive extra course (Target Bullseye Tour Tournament).

What the!? Exclusive target bullseye tournament? This is the first I've heard of it. Is it a whole new tournament mode in the actual game?
I'm also really looking forward to this after playing the in-store demo. I think you meant July 30th, right
.
GatorDeb, that GBA game looks like Kirby: Nightmare in Dreamland. Its a fantastic game and I highly reccomend it.

I'll let you know on Wednesday, Outlaw It's not like I'll be doing anything else If it's not locked, the Target tourney is probably the first I'll be playing.
You're right, that's Kirby. I played the multiplayer with someone and I remember sliding on those things.
June, July, potato, po-tah-to...

It doesnt say its an extra course in the add, I was wondering what the hell it was though.
Is this game going to be JUST like the first one? I love that one but I dont want to get the new one to find out they changed the format to somehting that totally sucks now. I want it to play like the first one, only with better graphics.

Just checked, not yet but I expect some stores to get it later tonight or tomorrow. Then we'll figure out what this target tournament is. I've been checking around and most people seem to think its a special code that you input to unlock a challenge. Mario Golf 64 also had this password feature to unlock different kinds of specific challenges (some were used for competitions I think). No one has confirmed it yet, so who knows.

From the GameFAQs boards:
I just got through talking to a Nintendo representative about the Target Tour. When I first asked him he looked it up and read me the instructions he had on how to access the tour. Basically it was press Start and Z and the title screen to enter the codes menu, then insert the code.
So that confirms that this isn't an extra option, it is a code that they give you. So then I asked him if it was exclusive to the Target version, and he said it wasn't, and that it was just like the competitions they used to do with Mario Golf and Tennis. So then I asked him where you got the code, and was like "oh yeah, I missed this part when I was reading what it said", and he confirmed that there was a code given with the game, in the instructions manual or something. Last I asked him if there was a different course or anything, and he said there was no extra course, it was just the tournament. I know you can't always trust Nintendo reps, but he was reading the official instructions off his computer, so I would trust that at least. So summarizing that all up, there is nothing exclusive about the Target version of the game except for a code they give you.

The hitting system is still there but you now have a choice. You can do it Manual (the way it was before) with A, B, and A or B or automatic (new addition) with A, A.
I'm pretty sure mini Golf is still there... I'll read the NP review again and let you know tomorrow.
