We have a message for fans of the Mushroom Kingdom. Please take a look.

Charles Martinet has been the original voice of Mario in Nintendo games for a long time, as far back as Super Mario 64. Charles is now moving into the brand new role of Mario Ambassador. With this transition, he will be stepping back from recording character voices for our games, but he’ll continue to travel the world sharing the joy of Mario and interacting with you all!

It has been an honour working with Charles to help bring Mario to life for so many years and we want to thank and celebrate him. Please keep an eye out for a special video message from Shigeru Miyamoto and Charles himself, which we will post at a future date

      Probably more of a pain for Nintendo to actually schedule him in a sound booth to record lines 😅

        Where is Charles?

        I don’t know last week he was in Paris and just yesterday was in Timbuktu.

        DAMNIT. I need a fresh “ya-hooo” recording for the new Super Mario Bros game. FIND HIM
