Release Date RRP Code

Ozaki Naomichi no Super Masters (尾崎直道のスーパーマスターズ) is a 1989 golf game by Sega for the Sega Mega Drive and a sequel to Jumbo Ozaki Super Masters. When brought overseas, it was renamed Arnold Palmer Tournament Golf.

The game is a typical 3D golf game. Use the D-pad to first select your club, then to aim your shot using the map on the left side of the screen. Hit A to initiate the swing. A meter with a blue bar and a green bar will appear on the top right corner of the screen. Hit A when the meter hits the desired point on the blue bar to determine the strength of the shot, then hit A again when the meter hits the desired point on the green bar to determine the height of the shot. Should you go too high over par on any hole, the entire game ends and you must start again at the beginning.

The game was ported to the Amiga and Atari ST by Elite Systems as Tournament Golf.

Fantasy Zone Minigame

Arnold Palmer Tournament Golf contains a number of references to Fantasy Zone (namely the "sound select" screen, which has an Opa-Opa cameo), however it also contains an obscure Fantasy Zone minigame.

To access it, the player needs to hit the ball 100 times on the first stage without getting to the green. Doing so will trigger a game over screen. On that screen, the player needs to input UpUpDownDownLeftRightLeftRightBA (the Konami Code) and he/she will be taken to a watered down version of the first Fantasy Zone stage, Plaleaf.

The aim is not to destroy bases (it's an option, though destroying both bases will end the game), but instead simply stay alive. There is no scrolling, though if Opa-Opa travels to the edge of the screen, he will appear at the other edge. Getting killed will end the game. B shoots forward, C drops bombs, and the score increases as time goes on. Opa-Opa's shots can counter enemy projectiles in this minigame, and every enemy requires several shots to be destroyed.

Ozaki Naomichi no Super Masters does not have this minigame; instead, the Game Over screen shows a still image drawn by Toyo Ozaki and hangs.
