Nintendo has announced that Charles Martinet, the original voice of Mario, will step back from recording voices for Mario games and move into the new role of “Mario Ambassador”.

Message from Nintendo:

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 honor 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.

Message from Charles Martinet:

My new Adventure begins! You are all Numba One in my heart! #woohoo !!!!!!!

So I finally heard for myself that Charles Martinet interview about Mario Teaches Typing where Charles says Mario doesn’t say ‘no,’ but rather he praises your effort and then encourages you to do even better. And. I love that philosophy, it suits Mario to a T. But how hilarious would it be if Charles just went the exact opposite direction.

Child: *types the wrong thing*

Mario: You FUCKED up. Youuuu FUCKED up! Are you FUCKING-a braindead???

Parallels in many ways…

Woo Hoo!!! Here We Gooo!!!

To cap off this Comicon 2022 I present to you a little Holy Grail I added to the museum today...

The first two games that featured Mario’s voice (outside the pinball machine) signed by the man who does Mario’s voice. The legend... Charles Martinet!

I can not express how luvly this interaction was. As I walked up, Martinet asked “what do you have here for me to sign???” I proceeded to explain to him the games he first voiced as if he didn’t already know... hahahah... I laughed awkwardly... He showed his assistant and got her to take a picture with both games. I was worried before hand that I’d take too much of his time chatting but to my surprise he actually talked to me. He told me about him defining the character of Super Mario. Focusing on the positive and not seeing Super Mario as someone who would say something like “you lose”. After the signatures and chat we took 3 pictures. A thumbs up, a victory sign and a block punch! accompanied by Mario’s iconic voice with each picture.

Thank you Charles Martinet 

I don’t have an authentication card or anything but that’s really okay because I think this picture works :)

That's right, its Mario Teaches Typing! (TODAY 3/1 3 PM EST

ok so like i can type, i am capable of typing, but i cannot touch type, and i am constantly making errors such as switching letters around when i dont mean to. (see: spaltoon from a couple weeks ago.) I did do some mavis beacon like a decade ago but i want to get my skills up and maybe learn to use the right shift.

also mario teaches typing is just very amusing to me as a concept

this is gonna be a shorter stream, probably only going for about an hour and then we'll be raiding into GDQ where my favoritest speedrunners in the whole world (@nicholegoodnight (who wow actually has a tumblr even though it hasn't been touched since 2014) and bathinjan) will be racing eachother in golf it! during frost fatales!
