NES Open Tournament Golf is an NES game featuring Mario characters. As the name of the game implies, it is a golf game and was one of the first golfing games in the Mario series. You can play a round of golf on one of three different courses. One or two players can play in the U.S., Japan, or the U.K. and choose a stroke or match play game. Gameplay is from two point of views, starting with an overhead view allowing you to set up the shot and choose a club, then switching to a 3-D point of view. Hitting the ball uses the common power meter where tapping the button starts the meter, tap the button a second time to select the amount of power in the shot, then tap the button a third time to select the amount of slice or hook.

Choosing how fast Mario'll be hitting the ball BEFORE choosing the club wasn't a great choice, and hitting the right spot is now harder, for some reason, as if it wasn't hard enough in the first game.
Graphics are more complex, but I actually preferred the old version.
All in all it isn't a bad game, but for some reason it's less enjoyable than a game which came out 4 years prior and from which it takes basically 90% of the game...
