Overview

The Game Boy counterpart to N64's Mario Golf will feature eight new golfers that were not in the N64 version. Four of them are bosses; the other four can be "pumped-up" with experience points as you play, and then transferred to your N64 Mario Golf cartridge later. Remember the four empty character squares in your N64 Mario Golf game? That's where these new characters will fit in! After you transfer the characters over, you'll be able to use them in your N64 game. Neat, eh? Too bad the "Transfer Pak" accessory (which does the transferring) isn't out yet, and won't be released for a while...
