Golf is one of five sports in Wii Sports, Wii Sports Club, and Nintendo Switch Sports. The object of the game is to hit the ball across the course and into the hole with one of the four different clubs. The rules are similar to that of real-life golf, but simpler.
Gameplay
Wii Sports
To play tennis, the Wii remote is swung as a real tennis racket would be. The timing of the swing, and height of the remote determine the direction ball goes. Each round is started by the designated server, who serves the tennis ball for the game. The non-serving team alternates positions between rounds. After every game a new server is chosen from the other team. If the server hits the ball at its peak, it becomes a fastball, which moves extra quickly and generates a white trail behind it. Both the front and back player can hit the ball at any time, so the front player is very useful, especially in more difficult rounds. The mode can be played with a single game, best of 3, or best of 5. Best of 5 earns the most skill for the players. Each team has a yellow counter which keeps track of their wins.
Players
Tennis is always played in doubles, so CPUs will fill in if spots are left empty. CPUs are selected with skill slightly higher than the player. If two human players are selected, one CPU with a similar skill is set for each of them. Skill ratings only increase in matches against CPUs, and will not change if each side has a human player. The game also allows the same Mii to occupy multiple slots, and players can control all slots at once if they wish. It is also possible for all slots to be CPUs in Wii Sports (but not Club.) The audience consists of randomly-generated Miis, as well as Miis from the Parade.
Nintendo Switch Sports
Golf is planned to be added to Nintendo Switch Sports as a free update sometime in the fall of 2022. No other information is known at this time.[1].
