'''''Golf: Japan Course''''' is a Japan-exclusive golf game released for the [[Family Computer Disk System]] on February 21, 1987. It is a golf game starring [[Mario]] and [[Luigi]]. It is similar in gameplay to the earlier ''[[Golf]]'', though with polished mechanics. The holes in the game are fictional. The game received a companion title a few months later as ''[[Golf: U.S. Course]]'', which also had fictional holes and improves even further on the mechanics.
