It's-a-me, Martinet! Signing your DS!

by JC Fletcher on Dec 30th 2007 12:00PM

DSes with signatures of Nintendo luminaries come up now and then, but a system ~~with a moustachioed smiley face on it~~ signed by a secondary figure like the voice of Mario is a rarity. eBay seller mus_ne is auctioning off this white DS Lite autographed and WooHoo!!!-graphed by Charles Martinet, for, well, rather a lot of money. It does come with screen protectors and a "DS Lite Cotton Sock," which ... still doesn't make the thing worth $400.

Just think: with this DS, you can be reminded of how Martinet totally ruined the Super Mario Advance games even when you're not playing the Super Mario Advance games.

The voices might have changed the Mario Advance games for the worse, but I wouldn't be so harsh as to say Martinet himself ruined them. The idea to put voices in the games in the first place was just a bad move, honestly.

The voices in the Advance games would've been better if what they said wasn't so long.. Like when you get a powerup they'd go "Just what I needed!" or whatever it is; they should've just said like "Yeah!" or "Woohoo" etc.
