Super Swing Golf: Season 2

Super Swing Golf: Season 2 includes an improved story mode, with an overworld map that does not necessarily follow events in a set order. On top of the multiplayer Stroke Play, Match Play and Balloon Pop games that came with the first game, two new multiplayer games were added to the party mode. The game has largely remained the same beyond these changes, the addition of new courses, and various cosmetic tweaks.

The game has two different control schemes; either using the Swing control scheme with the Wii Remote used as though it were a golf club, or using the Button control scheme{{cite web |last=Joynt |first=Patrick |date=January 29, 2008 |url=http://wii.gamespy.com/wii/swing-golf-panya-/848510p1.html |title=GameSpy: Super Swing Golf Season 2 |publisher=GameSpy |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20080204164254/http://wii.gamespy.com/wii/swing-golf-panya-/848510p1.html |archive-date=February 4, 2008 |url-status=dead |access-date=October 20, 2014}} which is similar to the Mario Golf-style of control scheme.

The game was met with average reception upon release; GameRankings gave it a score of 71.69%, while Metacritic gave it 70 out of 100.

GameSpy gave the game two-and-a-half stars out of five, criticizing the game for being more of an expansion pack over the first game than a true sequel. 1UP.com gave the game a B−, reporting that the game has surprising depth that can be off-putting to those just looking to have a good time.{{cite web |last=Walker |first=Torrey |date=January 9, 2008 |url=http://www.1up.com/reviews/super-swing-golf-2 |title=Super Swing Golf Season 2 |website=1UP.com |accessdate=October 20, 2014 |archive-date=November 3, 2012 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20121103132518/http://www.1up.com/reviews/super-swing-golf-2 |url-status=live }} IGN handed out a score of 7.3 out of 10, and reported that despite just adding incremental improvements over the previous installments, "Super Swing Golf: Season 2 is still the best overall golf experience you can find on Wii."
