About Waialae Country Club: True Golf Classics

Grab your clubs and head for the first tee. This golf sim recreates the world famous Hawaiian Waialae Golf Course, noted for lots of bunkers and very fast greens. You can choose your golfer, assign him a caddy, pick your set of clubs and adjust the power, putting, technical, recovery and wind game stats to suit your personal preference. The game offers a practice training mode, a tournament mode and the ability to challenge your friends in a stroke match. Oddly, this game was not sanctioned by the PGA and assumes that the golfer is always male.

A plain golf game from T&E Soft that critics said looked poor for so late in the N64's life, and one of the cheapest carts in the library.

Waialae Country Club: True Golf Classics was developed by T&E Soft and published by Nintendo, released in North America in July 1998 and PAL regions in August 1998. It shares a real-life course with the 1991 Super NES game True Golf Classics: Waialae Country Club but is a different game. In Japan it was preceded by Masters '98: Haruka Naru Augusta, which has similar graphics and gameplay on a different course.

Reviews were negative about the graphics, saying they were poor for how late in the N64's life cycle the game came out.

What the press said at the time

GameRankings (aggregate)63.4%
GameRevolution1/10
GameSpot6.6/10
IGN5.8/10
N64 Magazine49% (US) / 49% (UK)

“About 2% more enjoyable than its Jap counterpart but our last verdict still stands: your N64 could run this with the power off.”

— N64 Magazine, October 1998

“Overall, though, Waialae sets topnotch scores as the first golfer in the N64 clubhouse. You’ll definitely want to play 18, 36, and more!”

— GamePro, October 1998

“The courses may have been redesigned but the gameplay remains the same: tatty, ancient and dull.”

— N64 Magazine, November 1998

Undated scores are from the review table in the game's Wikipedia article, limited to reviews of the Nintendo 64 version.

Before you buy

Fake risk is low. Loose copies are among the cheapest in the library, and a complete copy costs several times the loose price. PAL copies cost more than the US cart.
