We'll have a lot of games to remember him by.
prevnext@CharlesMartinet. For many years you have been the life and talent that made Mario so iconic and a big part of my childhood. While I am saddened to learn you will no longer be voicing Mario I am happy to see you begin a new journey. I can't thank you enough for all the memories.

Some would just prefer to see Nintendo continue to use his voice lines.
prevnextidk i can't think of a good reason to recast charles martinet instead of just reusing his mario 64 lines for eternity like that is both easier and better

Many thought this day would never come.
prevnextCharles Martinet leaving the role of Mario is so odd to me considering he's been voicing him in almost every appearance of the character since before i was even born
not that he doesn't deserve to retire or anything, it's just one of those sobering moments

We were certainly blessed to have his voice for this long!
prevI wish Charles Martinet nothing but health and happiness, thank you for giving us your voice for so long! #ThankYouMartinet pic.twitter.com/raCmayFucb
