Nintendo Touch Golf Birdie Challenge

News: Touch Golf Factsheet & Screens

Nintendo has released factsheets for lots of big games today, and Touch Golf: Birdie Challenge (True Swing Golf in the USA) is just one of them. Head inside for the facts...

Experience the feel and finesse of real golf... the way it was meant to be played. More than 15 impressive 3-D courses, all with their own hazards and strategies, test players' skills. Players earn better gear by winning tournaments to help them compete.

With several game modes, character customization and wireless multiplayer support for up to four players with just one game card, there's something here for all golfers, no matter what their skill levels.

Players pick one of eight characters (four male and four female), select a personality and hit the tour. From there they can play in tournaments, practice, play a quick round or play in local wireless mode with pals.

In this realistic golf game, swing control mimics real life. Players simply slide the stylus across the touch screen to strike the ball and send it flying. They can even curve their swing to slice or hook shots and alter the angle of the club head for sharpshooter-like accuracy.

How to progress through the game: Play tournaments to go up in the rankings, which earns more money to buy better gear. As players customize their characters' clubs, spikes and other gear, their game will improve and they will unlock more and more courses.

Special powers/weapons/moves/features: The intuitive control of the game is the true special move, as it quickly immerses veteran golfers and novices alike. Players simply touch the screen to switch clubs, aim their shot, view camera angles or make menu selections. Once they're ready to swing, they just touch the club head, draw it back and swing it forward to make contact.

Adjusting the angle of the club face allows players to hook or slice the ball, and a precise swing will always pay off in the end.

For multiplayer games, players can play with up to four people over local wireless with a single game card using DS Download Play (or with multiple ones for more options in DS Local Area Network). Players also can download a demo to other Nintendo DS systems.

Update: Screens added! We've got a whopping nineteen new shots for you to check out:
