The trailer spends a considerable amount of time highlighting the new Speed Golf mode. In it, four players tee off at the same time and must get through the course quickly while avoiding the various obstacles that appear. Each character has their own special dash ability, so players will want to pick an opportune moment to unleash the move during a race.

Battle Golf is a variation of Speed Golf that takes place on a single course. Participants must claim any of the nine holes before the competition, and the first to score three wins.

As we saw when the game was first revealed, Super Rush will also feature a Golf Adventure mode, which stars Mii characters. This mode will have light RPG elements, allowing players to level up their Mii as they explore and interact with famous characters from the Mushroom Kingdom.

Super Rush boasts 16 playable characters, each with their own strengths and weaknesses. It includes familiar faces like Mario and Luigi, along with newcomers such as Pauline.

The trailer covers some of the game’s techniques such as curve shots, spin shots, and the shot gauge. Super Rush uses a traditional system where players need to press a button twice to properly hit a shot. The shot gauge will curve to indicate the effect a slope will have on the ball.

Golfers wont have to wait long, as Mario Golf: Super Rush launches exclusively for Nintendo Switch on June 25, 2021.

If 2023 was our last full year with the Nintendo Switch, what a heck of a sendoff it got.

The rumor mill has been buzzing for months now, claiming that Nintendo plans to reveal and release its Switch successor next year. While that’s a rumor you should take with some skepticism, there’s good reason to believe it may happen. Nintendo reportedly showed off the system to developers behind closed doors at Gamescom this year, and the Switch’s current 2024 lineup feels like the final drop we’d get right before a new system. The Switch could be old news this time next year.

Link pulls out the master sword in The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom.

The long-rumored The Legend of Zelda live-action movie is actually happening, with Nintendo confirming that it's officially in production. It’s a logical move following The Super Mario Bros. Movie, one of the year’s highest-grossing films. Video game adaptations appear to be in fashion more than ever before -- seemingly dethroning superhero movies in the process -- and it’s undeniably exciting to see more and more of my favorite franchises make their way to the big screen.

But I'd be lying if I said I wasn't worried.
