About a year after its release, ''Mario Golf: Toadstool Tour'' earned a [[Player's Choice]] re-release in North America in 2004 and Australia in 2005. It is the first ''[[Super Mario (franchise)|Super Mario]]'' spinoff to include substantial content from ''[[Super Mario Sunshine]]'' (released the previous year), such as [[Bowser Jr.]], [[Shadow Mario]], and [[Petey Piranha]] making their respective second appearance overall and playable debut; it is also the first to include [[Diddy Kong]] from the ''[[Donkey Kong (franchise)|Donkey Kong]]'' games, effectively taking [[Donkey Kong Jr.]]'s previous role as secondary ''Donkey Kong'' character in ''Super Mario'' games following the acquisition of ''[[Donkey Kong Country]]'' assets from [[Rare Ltd.]]

Meanwhile, Mario is preparing to take a shot on that same course with Luigi, Peach, and Daisy observing from behind. As Wario and Waluigi still try frantically to escape from Bowser's looming threat by going through an enormous metal door, Mario hits his ball with his golf club. Wario and Waluigi open the door and continue their escape attempt, but Mario's ball hits them, giving them black eyes as well. The ball then strikes Bowser, causing him to fumble the bomb. This ultimately results in an explosion claiming Wario, Waluigi, and Bowser as the victims. Mario, Luigi, Peach, and Daisy witness the explosion from afar, which leads to both princesses closing their eyes in defense before the camera finally pans out.

While playing fairly similarly to the previous two games, particularly ''[[Mario Golf (Nintendo 64)|Mario Golf]]'' for the [[Nintendo 64]], this game makes various additions and alterations to the formula present in both controls and visuals. The game uses 3D renders for the designs of characters and courses, like the previous home console game, allowing for the camera to be changed to view more of each hole in detail. Pressing {{button|gcn|X}} or {{button|gcn|Y}} allows the player to see an overview of the hole and study the topography of the both the course and specifically the green. In order to adjust their shot, the player can use the aforementioned controls and look around using {{button|gcn|C}}. The green also now displays moving topographic lines that follow down its path, increasing in speed the more the green slopes. A new control system has also been added, with manual and automatic swinging. The automatic swing is used by pressing {{button|gcn|A}} to set the power for the shot and then letting the game decide where the sweet spot marker ends up. A manual swing involves pressing {{button|gcn|B}} when choosing power, then pressing either {{button|gcn|A}} or {{button|gcn|B}} to set the sweet spot impact marker. This allows the use of a new feature, spin, to be used on shots.  Backspin, topspin, super backspin or super topspin can be used, affecting the ball's line of movement on the ground. Topspin sends the ball rolling forward while backspin causes the ball to roll back; these spins make the ball roll a shorter distance than their super versions. Different characters' spin will be more powerful with higher spin levels. The ability to change where the ball is hit is also makes a return from the two previous games, allowing different types of shots to be taken. Approach shots, used when players approach the pin, appear in this game, as well as the limited number of [[Power Shot|power shots]]. Power shots have longer drives than normal shots, and only six can be used at a time. If a player does a perfect power shot (meaning they have aligned the first bar at the far left and perfectly aligned the second bar), it is not used up.

'''Drive''' - How far the ball travels in the air for on a perfect shot with a driver (1W).<br>
 
'''Height''' - How high or low the ball travels in the air. The higher the ball travels, the more affected by wind it is, the higher it bounces, and the more it is affected by spin. The lower it is, the less it gets affected by wind; additionally, it makes the ball bounce further, roll more and get more affected by lie.<br>
*'''Drive''' - How far the ball travels in the air for on a perfect shot with a driver (1W).
'''Shot''' - What trajectory the ball travels in when hit. For right-handed players, if the ball curves to the left, it's a draw; to the right, a fade; far to the left, a hook or far to the right, a slice, and vice-versa for left-handed players.<br>
*'''Height''' - How high or low the ball travels in the air. The higher the ball travels, the more affected by wind it is, the higher it bounces, and the more it is affected by spin. The lower it is, the less it gets affected by wind; additionally, it makes the ball bounce further, roll more and get more affected by lie.
'''Impact''' - The amount of the sweet-spot marker left for certain shots. Less makes bunker shots much harder to land and often results in mis-hits.<br>
*'''Shot''' - What trajectory the ball travels in when hit. For right-handed players, if the ball curves to the left, it's a draw; to the right, a fade; far to the left, a hook or far to the right, a slice, and vice-versa for left-handed players.
'''Control''' - The amount of movement away from the targeted spot when hit off the perfect impact point. The higher the amount, the less the ball moves from the target spot.<br>
*'''Impact''' - The amount of the sweet-spot marker left for certain shots. Less makes bunker shots much harder to land and often results in mis-hits.
'''Spin''' - The amount of affect spin has on the ball. Having a higher amount will mean that the ball will roll further with the use of spin.
*'''Control''' - The amount of movement away from the targeted spot when hit off the perfect impact point. The higher the amount, the less the ball moves from the target spot.
*'''Spin''' - The amount of affect spin has on the ball. Having a higher amount will mean that the ball will roll further with the use of spin.
 
Impact, Control, and Spin are on a scale of 21. Numbers in parentheses for all stats indicate how they are shown when selecting Advance Tour Clubs. The quotes above the stats are each character's challenge invitation and instruction manual profile.
