Nintendo Dream recently conducted an interview with some of the lead staff involved with the development of Mario Golf: Super Rush and shared some interesting news. Camelot’s Hiroyuki Takahashi (producer) and Shugo Takahashi (director), along with Nintendo’s Shinya Saito (producer) and Tomohiro Yamamura (director) gave readers a peak behind the development curtain by talking through their experiences making the game.

We know that the final subtitle ended up being “Super Rush”, but another name was considered during development. Following the success of Mario Tennis Aces, it turns out that “Mario Golf Aces” was also considered as a potential name for Mario Golf: Super Rush, according to news shared with the Japanese magazine.

Below is our translation of their thoughts on why it was considered and how they ultimately landed on Super Rush:

Mario Golf: Super Rush debuted on the NPD charts at #3. We now have some additional insight into the game’s performance.

It’s confirmed that launch month dollar sales for Mario Golf: Super Rush were the highest ever for a Mario Golf game. Mario Golf: Toadstool Tour, which came to GameCube in July 2003, held the record previously.

On another software note, it’s worth noting that the Switch version of Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 1 + 2 moved the game back into the NPD charts. It went from #51 in May to #17 in June.
