Konami Golf on Game Boy is one of those old-school sports games that somehow nails the vibe of real golf without overcomplicating things. You pick your club, adjust your aim—wind actually matters here, which I didn’t expect at first—and then just swing. The courses are simple but have enough quirks to keep you on your toes, like sneaky sand traps and water hazards that’ll wreck your score if you’re careless.

It’s not flashy, but there’s something satisfying about chipping onto the green and watching the ball roll just right. And yeah, the controls take a minute to get used to (timing that power meter feels weird at first), but once it clicks, you’ll be hooked. Perfect for quick rounds when you just wanna zone out with some retro handheld vibes.

Still holds up better than most golf games from that era, honestly.
