Line 68 ⟶ 69: ==Trivia== Nintendo planned to release an 18-hole golfing game as a launch title for the [[Family Computer]], but software companies declined the project and believed that it could not be done with such limited memory at the time. [[Satoru Iwata]], who was a [[HAL Laboratory]] employee at the time, was eager to prove this technical achievement and program the game himself, which required him to create a custom data compression routine.<ref name=shmup/> The golfer has been identified as [[Mario]] in supplemental material, albeit not wearing his traditional shirt and overalls.<ref>''[[~~mh:mario:Mario Mania\|~~Mario Mania]]'', page 9.</ref> However, the game ''[[Captain Rainbow]]'' would instead identify the golfer as Ossan, which is the internal name that Mario had during the development of ''[[Donkey Kong (game)\|Donkey Kong]]''.<ref>http://iwataasks.nintendo.com/interviews/#/wii/mario25th/1/3</ref> It is the first time Mario has been associated with golf, years prior to the introduction of the ''[[Mario Golf]]'' series. Similar to ''[[Ice Climber]]'', the red-colored character on the North American box art is actually the second player.
