Not sure what's going on in this screenshot, but it looks cool.

Looks nice but I thought it was a tennis game?

The difference is though Mario Golf used the same dated system that the N64 game had. The N64 version of Mario Tennis however isn't dated in terms of game play mechanics, this should rock unless something goes REALLY wrong.

From those screenshots?

I'd say it's looking pretty good, not great. Still, I'll probably get it due to my love of the N64 version.

If you don't pay for a new GC Zelda so you get it on release, you're an absoloute bonafide idiot.

Simple.

MT is looking sweet.

In my opinion, it's boring and just generally crappy.

What's wrong with the Cube version of Mario Golf?

Not played it yet myself, but the N64 version was enjoyable. But I don't know how it's going to feel going back to the old timed button pressing technique after copious hours spent playing Tiger Woods '03.

I'm not gonna get my hopes up for Mario Tennis. My faith in Nintendo's sports spin-offs has been lost due to Mario Golf.

Nice to see someone else not getting sucked into buying games for a crazily over price at their launch. Don't even think I'll rush out and buy the next Zelda for launch. Well unless it comes out at Christmas or something, and someone buys it me. The only reason I bought Wind Waker on launch was to get the Ocarina disk. So unless something like that happens again, I doubt I'll be forking out full price for it... unless that is, I win the lottery or something!

As long as they keep the same game play mechanics and improve the single player mode so it's actually worth playing this time round, this should be a must buy.

Mario Tennis on the Nintendo sixty four was superb.
