Their is a ton of retro golf games some even being on the Atari 2600. to the NES to the Genesis/Mega Drive and onward. which ones hold a special part in your collection, or heart. Or do you even have or like any golf games? what is your main opinion on some you might have played?

 Also try to explain which you like better playstation analog  or wii remote swing , or trueswing, or tri click or the 3 tap shot like in most golf games. my least favorite golf series is hot shots because of the 3 button timed tap swing method. I however LOVE the Analog or also known as trueswing method on PC or Mac.

Golf game are good for if you want to take a break from the hard and often fast paced video games that most of us enjoy, I think

Well first, I'm sorry I don't have any additional information on golf games for the Wii other than mentioning that it returned on Wii Sports Resort with additional courses. 

I personally didn't like any golf games much until Lee Trevino's Fighting Golf on the NES.  It uses the 3 tap method and that is what I still favor to this day.  In my collection are a few of the Mario Golf games.  I don't play them much because they just aren't much fun in single player (compared to two player).  I find that after only a couple of rounds, I'm satisfied. 

I've never played real golf, but I am fascinated with seeing all of the ways game designers have tried to approach realism in the video game form.  I've tried games with analog swing control, but I didn't stick with it enough to develop a consistent touch.  In my collection I have both Real World Golf and Xavix Golf but I have yet to actually play either. 

When I want to scratch that golf itch, I actually prefer to play either Frisbee Golf on Wii Sports Resort, or Disc Golf on Sports Champions.

For golf games that use motion control on the wii I think that the Tiger Woods Series after 10 use it and there is also We Love Golf which is basically a clone of the Mario Golf game on the Wii.  All of those are fairly cheap being sports games and all except for Tiger Woods 12 the Masters.

And for a little extra information, can anyone tell me a Wii golf game, that I can play golf just like in the wii sports title? Where you swing more realistic because I thought I heard that the tiger woods games for Wii don't work like the golf game included on the Wii sports disc. basically I want a Wii game that includes a real time swing feature. :) But I don't know which one to buy at the moment.

Super Swing Golf and SSG Season 2!

I had to turn off the swing, though. I kept slicing the shot. o.o

I'm not sure how accurate the swing stuff is, but you can play with or without, and both are $5 or less! I might see if you can Google search some info though, to be sure 1. the swing motion controls are up to par (HA! pun), and 2. that it's your cup of tea.

And hey, try more than one game if you can! Wii stuff is ridiculously cheap.  ;D
