On today’s Daily Fix:
Nintendo has confirmed that Charles Martinet, the original voice actor of Mario who has played the character since 1991, will be “stepping back from recording character voices for our games” and will now serve as a “Mario Ambassador.” Bethesda head of publishing Pete Hines has spoken out in response to remarks made by ex-Blizzard developer Mark Kern, who had previously leaked an image of Starfield’s start screen and criticized its design as “hasty” or the work of a team “that didn’t care”. Presented by Universal Orlando Resorts.

How will this effect John Cena’s legacy??
Kim needs to host/segment waaay more often!! 😂💯🔥
Nooooooo 😢
Chris Pratt will now be taking on the role of Mario full time.
Let-A-Go is crazyyyyyyyyyyyyyy
We will all miss Charles Marinet hopefully whatever he does next well still cheer for him
Dont worry we got A.I.😂😂😂
Well goddamn, that's the end of a legend.
basically voiced mario universe for the whole genre now he leaves lol
O7 Charles Martinet for making this game fantastic.
nooo Charles Marinet You ARE Mario no one should replace you!
Obviously, Nintendo decided that Chris Pratt be voicing Mario from now on
Mario won’t ever be the same what happened to him voicing Mario until he dies what happened to that
All the best Martinet.
Always imitated but never duplicated. Appreciate you Charles.
He will carry on as Mario Ambassador
❤ ninja theory and UK
Well we ALL love the legendary voice actor of Mario, cause he's the Nintendo Ambassador of all time!✨🌟❤💐 Now the OG actor of Mario should give the two new actors of advices.😉😁
Probably use an AI for Mario
Sad to see him go…
Noooooooo!!! It won't be the same without him 😢
Doesn't Mario basically say the same thing every game anyway?
Thank you so much, Charles 😢 ❤
They screwed him over
End of an era
That start screen had no fn identity.
Who cares? It's very easy to fake an Italian accent. Nobody ever would have known this happened if nobody said anything.
Starfield is almost here…let's goooooooo!!!!
Voice acting as in making sounds you mean.
Thank you Charles! Let's-a-go!
bro only had to say 5 lines for 30 years. this is barely considered voice acting.
please a not that spaghettah meataball Chris a Pratta
They are really going to have to get someone who is absolutely on point to do Mario now or it's really going to hurt the games.
He will be missed. Why the Starfield hate? Devs are getting a little triggered.
If he dies, he dies a legend. And we call respect that.
if starfield isnt as immersive as baldurs gate 3 then we shouldn't buy it. BG3 set a new standard for RPGs nothing less is satisfying anymore 🙂
thankyou charles for voicing chris pratt all these years your our childhood
Well that’s one 30 minute recording session every 5 years he won’t have to show up to
😮
Wouldn’t be surprised if he discontinued after Nintendo did him dirty with that Chris Pratt casting
Nintendo will just use AI. Watch.
Smash
Thank you for voicing Mario over these past years, Charles! You will always be the greatest Mario to me
Um, Kim's, uh… a little wooden. 🤦🏽♂️
