This being Comic Con weekend I was looking for a related voice over clip, but then I stumbled upon this interview that Charles Martinet gave with CVG and just had to post it right away. If the name doesn’t sounds that familiar to you then hopefully the voice will as Charles has been the voice of Nintendo’s Mario since Super Mario 64.
By YouTube standards it’s a pretty lengthy clip coming in at 8 minutes and Charles goes into great detail about his life as Mario and how their personalities have melded over the years. Along with Mario he also voices everyone in the Mario and Wario families and it’s great fun watching him go back and forth through the many many characters.
It’s a great interview and Charles just seems like grateful, happy and fun man. Someone I’d really like to meet in voice over travels in the future. I can’t wait for his book to come out too.
