Jack Nicklaus’ Greatest 18 Holes of Major Championship Golf (NES) Playthrough

[@feiwong3634]

I had this, and loved it! I remember spending a lot of time with this game, i should get a copy for the collection, the nostalgia is strong

[@retrogamingpub3186]

This was the first golfing game I ever owned. I'm pretty sure my grandpa got this for me and I had no idea what I was doing, but it was fun.

[@NintendoComplete]

It's not quite NES Open Tournament Golf, but Jack Nicklaus's NES game is still an excellent 8-bit sports cart.

*scard*

[@ElephantMariotheRHDNhater3293]

At least it ain't Bubsy!

[@DjReoF]

OMG I just found it! I think I was 4 when i played this game. At the time I had absolutely no idea of what I was doing. I appreciate the huge efforts they made at the time to create a 3d realistic game. I guess this was out of this world in the 80's.

Waiting for each screen is like watching Bob Ross paint a landscape... then "spank the devil" out of that little ball. There's even a Bob Ross style haircut on the main character and blue clothes.

[@randy7894]

Jack Nicklaus looks like a MA'AM!

[@rjcupid]

I always thought that when you hit the ball in this game it sounds like a dog barking. The music between holes is awesome.

[@PlasticCogLiquid]

It is interesting that they went with a swoop instead of a bonk

[@mrmusickhimself]

My uncle owned this and Solomon's Key for NES, and I ALWAYS called this game: Jack Nicholson's Golf. No one ever corrected me, I felt like Tommy Boy and Herbie Hancock.

[@owenjnelson-fb9mg]

Hehe i still cal it that!

[@johncraw8572]

Awesomeness game please do more golf games please thanks 👍👍👍👍👍👍

[@asteroido]

You are great! The first two times i hear voices at Nes. This game and Final Mission!

[@tarantinoish]

I think the course record at Pebble Beach is like 61, and you shot a 53 against the Golden Bear. Good job.

[@NintendoComplete]

Haha thanks. If only I could golf like that for real 😅

[@larrylaffer3246]

Well thanks to all those loading screens I guess I'll need to make sure I have plenty of Arnold Palmer's and/Golden Bear Lemonades handy as I'm going to be here a while.

[@BessieRiggs]

I had this game as a child. Never understood golf so I didn’t really understand the game. Often lost my temper with this one lol.

[@DerivativeWorker]

Jack's strange gaze makes me feel defensive

[@NintendoComplete]

It's like he's saying, "Think you can get it inside mine?"

[@b.entranceperium]

Memory lane right here...

[@Dorian_Scott]

Oh cool! I didn't know The Joker played golf.

[@LPetal86]

Listen to that Konami music go. The uh, portrait of Mr. Nicklaus kind of scares me though. He has no eyebrows, and his eyes sport the intensity of Hannibal Lecter.

[@NintendoComplete]

Haha! Too right. The eyes of mental illness 😳 Maybe an eyebrow pencil would've helped.

[@rjcupid]

It’s the “Castlevania” version of The Golden Bear.

[@mrmusickhimself]

He looks like something out the Mandala Catalogue. Still not as horrifying as NES Kevin from the Home Alone gameover screen.

[@AlyphRat]

This game cures insomnia

[@VahanNisanian]

Did Konami actually produce this? I've heard different sources claim that it was actually the work of Sculptured Software.

[@NintendoComplete]

Nah, I think I mentioned it in the description. It was Sculptured Software. It's one of the few games that weren't Konami's that they published under their own name instead of Ultra.

[@NukeOTron]

I can see why certain KZbinrs called this Jack Nicholson Golf.

[@NintendoComplete]

That's what I called it back then. Batman was pretty popular at the time, so I guess my eight year old ears were easily tricked 😆

[@mrmusickhimself]

@@NintendoComplete Me too! Glad to see I'm not alone, now I want a Jack Nicholson golf game. If you slice into the parking lot, a minigame starts as Jack starts bashing cars with his club.

"Do you want to play again? (Yes/No) You chose... no."

[@vdog4799]

My favorite golf game so far has been tiger woods for ps 2. I haven't played anything newer

[@_Majoras]

i read that as 'greatest 18 major holes'

[@NintendoComplete]

Oh, that makes it sound like a convention for porn stars. Or a challenge to Goatse.

[@thegreatrenaldo7718]

Much better than Lee Carvallo's putting challenge

[@bigduke5902]

I would always confuse the golfer with the similarly named actor as a kid.

[@erikapeng8847]

Classic

[@flammenwaffenfries3039]

Holes uhuhuhuhuh

[@Gameboy-Unboxings]

This is great but if i had to choose, I'd have to say that Lee Carvallo's Putting Challenge would be the better of the two.

[@Dorelaxen]

But...but...Craig Stadler...
