	Charles Martinet - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Charles Martinet (born September 17, 1955) is an Amerindian voice actor, best known for providing the voice of Mario, the star of Nintendo's flagship franchise.
		This system was called "Mario in Real-Time," or "MIRT." Martinet could see the attendees by means of a camera setup, and a facial motion capture rig recorded his mouth movements in order to synchronise Martinet's mouth movement with the on-screen Mario mouth movement.
		Martinet's video game voiceover debut was as Mario in the 1995 Windows release of Mario Teaches Typing, which featured an adapted form of MIRT.

	Sound career decision / Bay Area voices carve a niche in video games
		Martinet now records dozens of hours of video game dialogue per year, and just got back from a world tour as the voice of game character Mario the Plumber, which included a short address to 60,000 fans at Australia's national football final.
		His video game character counterparts may be surrounded by vibrant colors or explosions, but most of Martinet's work takes place in a small white room with a door, a window with a view of sound equipment and a single microphone.
		Martinet said he still gets offers to voice the dying, but most of his gigs these days involve a lot more dialogue than a bloodcurdling scream.

	TMK \| Mario in Japan \| Mario Kart 64
		As you wade through the pre-game setup screens, both versions have an announcer; The difference is that the Japanese version has a very American-sounding announcer with a voice that echoes, while Mario lends his voice to the English version.
		It sounds to me like Charles Martinet—the voice of Mario—does the announcing for the Japanese version.
		Charles Martinet was the only person that did voice acting for both versions.

		The Nintendo DS is capable of stereo sound with its two speakers, and even has a surround setting making those classic Mario tunes sound a lot better than you'd expect for a measly portable.
		Charles Martinet and the other voice actors typically involved with Mario games have recorded some new samples, mostly to compensate for the changes that took place during the upgrade, and they all sound just as sweet as the music.
		A lot of you probably don't even need to be told this, but Super Mario 64 DS is THE must-own launch title.

		Though it's unlikely to have any impact on the gameplay, we were also told that you'll arrive in your town (and travel to friends' towns) in a car rather than on the train.
		To demonstrate the game's online play, Nintendo had three copies of Animal Crossing DS running at its E3 booth today and gave attendees an opportunity to explore Animal Crossing alongside Charles Martinet (the voice of Mario), who could be seen live on a TV screen playing the game from New York.
		Besides the game's new 3D look (and the fact that multiple players can explore a town simultaneously), the first thing we noticed about Animal Crossing DS was how incredibly varied the player characters and their outfits were.
