Charles Martinet killed Mario. Damn I can't stand Mario's voice and overly happy personality.

>>Worth noting is Martinet mentioned he has yet
>>to lend his voice to Super Mario Galaxy

While most Mario games seem to reuse the same obnoxious noises from Super Mario 64, please oh please oh please let this be a sign that Nintendo is going to abandon vocalwork in Galaxy or at least find another voice that suits the character.

Ha! Not a chance Steve. :p

Charles has been the voice of Mario since even before Mario 64. So to say he 'ruined' Mario is paradoxical since to Nintendo he sets the standard for Mario. Anything closer to Captain Lou, Peter Cullen, nor Bob Hoskins' voices would only stand out like sore thumbs. Though I would agree PEACH's voice is impossibly high. *shudders*

I read somewhere that there will actually be some interesting dialogue this time around. I won't be holding my breath just yet though.

"Sound is usually one of the finishing touches on a game"

If the game is well designed, definitely not.

Did he do the voices in Mario & Luigi Partners in Time? Because the pseudo-italian was AWESOME!

Does Martinet remind anyone else of Robin Williams?

No, Martinet HAS done the voice work for Super Mario Galaxy already

unless he lied in his statement a while ago (February)
