Official Mario

[The Jonster]

Right? Now that I think about it, Martinet voiced more than one character besides Mario. I wonder if his retirement means that they'll have to find others to voice Luigi, Wario, Waluigi, etc...

I will definitely miss that iconic voice.

[Elite Piranha]

Yes, he has voiced a lot of characters, including Wario. However in some cases I guess Nintendo will keep using the same voice clips until they can fully transition to the next voices.

[The Jonster]

That sounds about right tbh. Hope his voice will still be on Super Mario Wonder when it comes out!

[The Jonster]

Oh? Looks like there may be a chance we find out who Mario’s new voice actor is tomorrow… I’m stoked to find the release of Super Mario Wonder is a day before my birthday!

That's going to be interesting. I wonder if he's going to sound really weird in comparison to what we're used to.

[The Jonster]

I kind of wonder that too, Martinet's been around voicing Mario for almost 30 years (maybe even longer since I think there was a game before Super Mario 64 too) and I've gotten so used to hearing him as Mario by now. Imagine it being Chris Pratt!

[Greengoop]

I’m kinda glad in the Mario movie they got an American voice actor and not WA WA YAHOO LETSAGOO

[The Jonster]

uhhhh? Probably not reading this right but Charles Martinet is American too? What you talking about?

[Greengoop]

uhhhh? Probably not reading this right but Charles Martinet is American too? What you talking about?

But pratt spoke in an American voice rather than an over the top stereotypical Italian voice

[The Jonster]

Ohh right, I see. I can't imagine Mario without that Italian voice though, so iconic! Maybe with the succeeding voice actor he could have an italian or even Brooklyn accent, since that's where the bros hail from.

[Greengoop]

I prefer the Italian in games, but American in movies

[The Jonster]

Oh, that's a good point there. I wonder what Charles Martinet would have sounded like in the Mario movie? Also we can talk about how badass Princess Peach! BOY!

[Greengoop]

Yeah! That’s one of the few character personality changes I can be satisfied with, most companies fail terribly attempting it

[The Jonster]

Oh speaking of which, I hear there's also going to be a brand new Princess Peach game released later! I wonder if this will showcase her with any traits that she had in the movie?

[Greengoop]

That’d be awesome! We haven’t seen peach star in a game for a very long time

[The Jonster]

I know right? The last time Peach had a starring role was back with Super Princess Peach! I actually enjoyed that game myself.

[Greengoop]

Never played it, is it for DS? Because I might try it

[The Jonster]

Yes that’s right, it’s for the DS! It’s quite unique for a game in the Mario universe which is why I like it!

[Greengoop]

Exclusively for the DS? I’ll have to see if it’s at CeX and the maybe give it a try

[The Jonster]

Yes it's only for the DS. Ugh if only my 3DS top screen wasn't broken and I had my physical copy of the game I'd play it now.
