That is exactly what i meant with "proper mini golf". The course would be like the "Putt-Putt" chain of mini golf courses. No pirate ships, clowns, moving targets, etc. I would love a game like that.

I don't think aligning with the PMGA will help sell games though, very few poeple even know there is such a thing.

The best way to help a mini golf game sell would be for whoever makes it (I would like to see EA do it as they have the golf motion plus putting going for them already and seem to be taking the Wii seriously) using a popular franchises (in my earlier post I said the Sims) to market it.

What I worry about with mini golf is that it will be like Carnival Games mini golf, just thrown together with broken controls. Or married to licenses like Barbie.

Aligning with the PMGA would be done to add a level of credibility to the product.  Also, you can hire them on to provide consulting advice on the game, and throw in literature about their association in the manual.  The license should be dirt cheap to pick up.  I believe they way the PMGA plays it is not of the gimmic stuff, just nasty holes to put on that are challenging.  I do remember seeing them play on TV at one time, and the courses were VERY challenging.

To say why I suggest this, is that even Foosball has an association, and they were licensed for a game.
