"Rejoice gamers, we finally have a new title on the Nintendo Wii that isn't a mini game collection. Super Swing Golf has actually been out in Japan for over a year now but it's finally made its way to Europe and we've got our hands on it to review. The obvious comparison that's going to be made is between Nintendo's first party effort Wii Sports. Even with strong competition, Rising Star Games' latest tee off hopes to offer the depth that Wii Sports was missing. Does it manage to hit a hole in one or is it out of bounds?"
Purists will shirk the Korean golfing madness, but if you're not obsessive about realistic play, this will be more than enough for you. In fact, there's very little to fault Super Swing Golf on. The Tour Mode will keep you going for quite some time, while the dual control methods mean that joining in on the multiplayer will be a cinch for anyone.
Dressing up the characters and the picturesque courses will appeal to casual gamers, the hardcore design will attract more dedicated players. It's obvious that a lot of attention has been paid to the design of this game, and that's what makes playing it such a joy. This is definitely a shining example of how to make good, high quality sports game fun.
It may be harsh to call Super Swing Golf terrible, but it does have a lot of flaws. The poor controls, badly designed courses and an unneeded level of wackyness provide nothing more but a few hours of distraction. Still if you're a fan of PangYa or looking for an alternative sports game, then this may be right up your ally. Just don't blame Thunderbolt if you think it's below par.

"While the slightly girly-cute characters may not appeal to gamers looking for something similar to a simulation (such as Tiger Woods PGA Tour), it is nonetheless a fun and engaging offering."
