Such a great guy. I love voice actors. They literally talk in character to make you smile. This guy loves being Mario for people.

That being said, this part of Conan's remote was so god damn funny

I literally said "oh NOooo" aloud in a Mario-like cadence without even thinking when I read this headline. It's sad to see him go, he was such a perfect fit for the job in every way.

Chris Pratt must have a viscous agent

Like castor oil, or..?

If they announce the crispy rat as the new voice actor, I think I'll commit seppuku.

I hope Chris Pratt replaces him

How do I delete someone else's lemmy comment?

I hope Chris Pratt replaces him
I hope Chris Pratt replaces him but actually doesn't want to. He just didn't realize the contract also stated he would voice the character in video games in perpetuity.

after learning of this
"Mama mia!" In a thick Brooklyn accent

Say sike right now
@MyFairJulia I wish but let's be real, dude is old, he would retire sooner or later. It will be so difficult to top him though, but perhaps someone was already found as Mario's voice in Wonder sounds slightly different.
Do they even need to replace him though? There's a 25-year back catalog of recorded voice lines to recycle, and most of those consist of "Let's-a-go" and "Yahoooo!" I think the most complex sentace I've ever heard Mario speak in game is "Thank-a-you so much for playing my game". Combine that with AI voice recreation, and there's literally no reason to ever hire a replacement. Just cut Martinet a big-ass check for perpetual use of his voice, and they're golden.
