An early launch-window golf game, simple but pleasant to handle. Very dated technically, yet still fun for a few holes among friends.

Arnold Palmer Tournament Golf (Mega Drive) price, value & rarity
Is Arnold Palmer Tournament Golf still worth playing in 2026?
Arnold Palmer Tournament Golf is one of the Mega Drive's first golf games, in which you play American courses against the computer or other players. The playability rests on a classic power gauge and simple club management, approachable but limited. The presentation and depth betray the title's age, largely surpassed by the machine's later golf simulations. For fans of retro golf and Mega Drive catalog history, it is a dated curiosity, mainly interesting for its pioneering role.
