Toadstool Tour is polished, legible, and packed with enough shot nuance to reward real investment. It strips away some RPG texture from the handheld side, but in exchange it becomes a wonderfully clean console sports game with gorgeous swing feel.

Why it matters
It matters because it confirms Mario Golf as more than a one-off success. The Camelot formula had genuine staying power.
