Martinet Stepping Away from Voicing Mario
https://lemmy.world/post/3570565
@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 voice lines to recycle, and most of Mario's voice lines 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.
