Patrick's Mii is great. Mario Power Tennis looks alright. Afraid to check the Game of Thrones QL.

Yeah, it kind of does. Well, not so much the fps stuff, but definitely the boat stuff.
I'm in agreement with them: pull that mechanic into another game and take it further!
Mario Tennis... Now I remember why I never played that game...
edit: Perhaps I spoke too soon. Super Mario Tennis and Galaxy mode look pretty awesome.

That Fantastic DK Remix is fantastic.
That SMB mini game in Mario Tennis is rad. Does it only have the first three stages, or can I play the whole game?
Reminds me of the Space Harrier minigame in the DS version of Sega Allstars Tennis where you had to tennis your way through space harrier stages. There needs to be more "Tennis your way through this totally not-tennis game" games.

Oh dude that sounds amazing. Might need to try and hunt down a copy of that now.

Reminds me of Everybody's Tennis.

Camelot does Hot Shots Golf, Mario Golf, Everybody's Tennis and Mario Tennis, so it makes sense. It's just one has the Mario license and the other has a collection of weird plastic anime children.

Minna no X is Clap Hanz, no?

Oh never knew that. Odd how hotshot tennis had a ton of content at half the price (at launch!).
Indeed, but I think clap Hanz was formed by people from Camelot jumping ship.
This is the fourth Mario Tennis game in 12 years (not counting the Virtual Boy one)... so hardly the millionth one as Patrick said. Really excited for MTO now, looks a great tennis game with some depth in the customisation system. I can understand the lack of the RPG aspect since they haven't yet developed a Golden Sun for the 3DS, the engine of which they did the RPG aspects on for the GBA sports games.
Also, Mario Kart Wii was the first game with Mii voices I think - they were incredibly annoying.

Yeah, whoever mentioned how long it takes Ryan to get to gameplay when he heads up a Quick Look is a complete arsehole. Completely ruined Ryan Quick Looks.

Someone needs to splice together a video of all Ryan menu time (RMT) in QLs.

Only if it's called "FallAsleepClub" and a Vita exclusive.

Ha, yeah I totally notice now.
I love it. Time-to-first death for Brad, Time-to-gameplay for Ryan, Time-to-Patrick stops reading the franchise's wikipedia page.
One day we'll see a Ryan-led Football Manager quicklook. Time-to-gameplay, infinite.

how about time to someone getting something wrong about a franchise?
I know people are busy, but is it too much to glance through the gb wiki page of said game/franchise before a QL?

Game of Thrones QL is good stuff, nothing to fear.
No because that leads to people splitting hairs over such meaningless shit like "Which game had Miis voices first"

They made a Gameboy version of Dragons Lair?
LOL.
LOL.
The Game Boy version is just a shitty platformer where everything kills you. The GBC version is fucking nuts for its platform.
It looks pretty much like a really compressed version of the original arcade game.
Fixed that for you.

Well, we can't really say that they've endured the gameplay all the way. 
The NES version of Dragon's Lair is amazing. The Angry Video Game Nerd did a video on it years ago: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=00xIvTOLrYA
I imagine that and Dragons Dogma sometime soon.

The part with them falling down the hole over and over had me rolling.

This. Not much endurance required if you're just setting it to autoplay.
You're also missing all the death scenes, which were the best part really. I always failed on purpose for each death just to see all the animations.
I know this is a little absurd since the game benefits from a retrospection, but: gameplay starts at 4:05.
