The Qu is correct! Since it's past 24 hours, I'll probably have to skip ahead and give the answers that weren't guessed in italics. I must've been a bit unfair with these quotes. It might take me a little while to get the next round of quotes together, so hang tight!
Easy
"I have scattered the seeds of the future."
The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker
"I'm just doing my job. I do what I'm told, and don't even get paid very much."
Conker's Bad Fur Day
Hard
"All day long now, love grows strong now, / Sing a melody of love"
Mother
"Go for it [Starfy], Get up! No time for a nap! SOCK HIM FOR ME!"
The Legendary Starfy
Third Party
Easy
"It was a goddamn space alien!"
Alan Wake
Hard
"So, what do you think of holy buns?"
The Last Remnant
Points
Nocturnal YL - 2
The Qu - 1
(In hindsight, I might've mistyped the quote from The Last Remnant... ah, well.)

I wanted this to show up as an update on the main page, so I double-posted. If that's still unacceptable, I'm sorry! I'll edit this into the previous one, if that's the case.
I've tried to make these a bit easier. I'll also wait longer before providing hints.
Easy
"Trying to find you is like trying to find spilled ink at night."
"This is as far you go!"
Hard
"The secret to becoming a great warrior is practice and more practice."
"Even though I was defeated, I won't change my course. I will continue battling until I stand above all Trainers!"
Third-Party
Easy
"I have not come... this far... to die now."
Hard
"Is a better, home a-waitin' / In the sky, in the sky?"

With a keyword like Trainer, I don't think the second hard can be anything but a Pokemon game  Pokemon Gold/Silver to be exact, yeah? |

First easy: very obviously, Super Mario RPG
First hard: Star Fox 2
Second hard: Animal Crossing City Folk, maaan
Third-party easy: Chrono Trigger
Third-party hard: Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood
I didn't search online for the last few sets of questions, but I did this time. And I noticed that some quotes aren't exact quotes. That line Ike said to Volke is "Looking for you is still like trying to find spilled ink at night." I'm guessing you just search your answers and extract quotes from the results, whereas I found them from actual games, game screenshots and videos - the sort of stuff that search engine crawlbots don't bother to look into. Of course, my method also means the questions are much more difficult and participants had to rely on hints instead of the actual quotes.
Oh, and your pace (which is faster than mine) is pretty good. Lookng forward to more quotes.

That line Ike said to Volke is " Looking for you is still like trying to find spilled ink at night." Ah! Sorry about that! My memory must've been a bit foggy at the time. I'm not sure what time it was when I came up with it, but I recall most of my posts in this thread being posted either early in the morning or late at night...  Thanks for letting me know! I'll post the quotes as they've been knocked out, and I'll update the scores, but I'll wait a little while longer before giving any kinds of hints. That was nearly a clean sweep!

To reply to YL more properly, yes, I did get some of these from searching the games myself. I have played the games I quoted, though, with a lot of these being quotes from my own memory. I searched them because I don't trust my memory to get it spot-on. Perhaps my methods should change, because a quick fact-checking could've prevented my misquote from occurring. Thanks for the feedback, though! I'll try to get quotes that are more indicative of the game they're in. The only unanswered quote from the last round was from Mario Party DS, and I'm not entirely sure what I was thinking by choosing it.
I think I'll take a break once these are answered. If anyone wants to take over, feel free!
Easy
"He wouldn't stand a chance against those ghosts without my help! You have to go after him!"
"As with most grub-dogs, the creature's cranium comprises half of its total length and girth."
Hard
"With the help of her colleagues, she will soar across the galaxy and get into all manner of adventures along the way!"
"Such epic foulness! Just thinking about that dark day gives me owl bumps!"
Third-Party
Easy
"More like Stupei, Ace Defective!"
Hard
"Not saying you don't know how to handle a gun, just saying some of us know how to make it dance."

First easy is the first Luigi's Mansion.
Second hard is... well, my first guess without searching was Metroid: Other M, and upon checking the answer I know that I'm wrong. The quote itself is misquotes, however. Sorry for being so nitpicky =P
The quote should be:
With the support of her new colleagues, she will soar across the galaxy and get into all manner of adventures along the way!
As for the others, well, I gave up and checked for the answers myself. The actual answers were surprising to me, haha. Not gonna post those answers.

Strangely enough, the specific way I misquoted it makes that part of the sentence identical to another line I remember, but I can't place where it's from. Memory's a weird thing. I'm gonna wait for some more people to step up to the plate to count points and give hints. |
