EDIT: THIS IS THE BEST MARKETING ATTEMPT I'VE EVER SEEN.

Wow. It's weird hearing him be sarcastic.
You got some dirt on you. Here's some more!

Haha, oh wow. Now I wanna see Mario and Sonic have a Snark-Off or something like that.
Oh, and I already preordered Mario Sports Mix. I should be able to get it by Friday.
Experience has taught me to investigate anything that glows.
Morgan Freeman is God.
Someone should ask him why Geno isn't in the game.
Both Nintendo and Square Enix are involved, he damn well should be there.
Why I am afraid of fences.
Wow. It's weird hearing him be sarcastic. Yeah, I thought the exact same thing......and then posted it....

Compare the videos where Charles Martinet did live webcams as Mario at E3 2007 and Nintendo World with this.
It's probably just me, but Mario comes off as a bit more annoying when he's scripted, and more funny when he isn't. Maybe it's just because he sounds more natural when he's unscripted, maybe Nintendo's current writing team isn't as funny as Mr. Martinet. Wario's funny either way, but he's still a lot more funny unscripted, I mean, how else are you going to get Crowning Moments of Funny like him attempting to sing a lullaby about GOING TO SCHOOL?

(And so can you!)
I didn't know Mario could be so snarky...

This is a very amusing commercial. I love it, especially since Mario seems to be a little snarky.
I only just heard about this game and didn't realize Square-Enix had a hand in it, so I'll assume this is probably as close to a sequel to Mario Hoops as I can hope for. I'm going to have to wait until after this month to get it though.

Sarcastic Mario is weird to hear, but not as weird to hear as Mario actually carrying a conversation in the first place - usually it's bit catchphrases for him.
I bet they knew that too, since they had him say Every. Single. One. at the end of the video.
I'm not sure what part of this is more hilariously ridiculous / ridiculously hilarious. It's a tie between Charles Martinet's as always hilariously bad accent and the Puppet-Interviewer's facial expressions.

Yeah, I also found him speaking in something besides "Catchphrasian" weird than him being sarcastic (which I didn't find weird at all... probably because the other characters in the RPG games can get pretty sarcastic themselves).
The funny thing is that his closing speech pretty much consists of him rattling off the majority of his catch phrases, even though he had already peppered his earlier conversation with phrases (although now I think those were all his VerbalTics).
Sonic is already rather snarky, it would be hilarious to see the characters having Dialogue During Gameplay in a proper crossover.

I'm not sure what to say.
"Gee that's funny".....It's weird hearing Mario be sarcastic.
