Game Boy

Golf is one of the original sports foundations of the Game Boy library. Its appeal is historical rather than flashy: it is one of Nintendo's earliest handheld sports titles and a direct descendant of the company's 1984 Famicom golf game.

That gives it a place as a launch-era style title that helped establish the Game Boy as more than a system for action and puzzle games. Golf also appears as a pack-in in one of the console bundles held in the collection.
