Everybody's Golf

Everybody's Golf has several modes—including Tournament, Training, Stroke Play, and Match Play—as well as a Miniature Golf course.

These points are used to open new courses. Everybody's Gold features six different courses and a free-moving game camera.

The sequel Everybody's Golf 2 brings some improvements over the original, such as more realistic character models, which differed from the anime-style characters seen in the original game.

Everybody's Golf 2 also includes several game modes including Stroke, Match, and Tournament play, as well as Versus, through which new characters can be unlocked. Gameplay itself is a version of the standard '3 click' variety used by the majority of golf games.

Of these, 10 are new, while five are returning favorites from the previous game. The game also features an online Tournament mode where up to 32 players can compete against each other. The North American and European versions included online play, while Japanese did not.

The game was titled Hot Shots Golf Fore! in North America.

This game features three modes. The single-player game offers players the chance to unlock characters and items by competing in tournaments or by stroke play. Training mode lets golfers practice their skills on various courses with no pressure. The wireless multiplayer mode allows up to eight players to play a course together in various head-to-head matches, real-time tournaments, or the new putting challenge.

The 10 new characters can be customized with more than 250 items of clothing, accessories, clubs, and balls for a unique style. Once players gain enough to go even further under par. The game was renamed Hot Shots Golf: Open Tee in North America.

This game has 14 characters, 5 umpires, and 11 tennis courts. There are 3 different modes to choose from, which are Challenge Mode, Tennis with Everybody, and Training Mode. In Challenge Mode, the players play against computer-controlled opponents in order to unlock features like alternate costumes for characters and more courts to play on. In Tennis with Everybody, there are play matches with 1 to 4 players. The training mode allows practice positioning and timing shots, and choosing from service, volley, smash and general practice.

A small number of the characters from the previous games of the series (both American and Japanese) make cameo appearances on the courts (usually only in Singles matches). Suzuki and Gloria return as being playable characters.
