| | '''Charles Martinet''' (last name pronounced ''mar-tin-AY''), born September 17, 1955 in {{wp|San Jose, California|San Jose}}, {{wp|California}}, [[United States of America]], is the prominent voice actor of the [[Mario (franchise)|Mario]] games. He voices several major characters, including [[Mario]], [[Luigi]], [[Wario]], [[Waluigi]], [[Baby Mario]], [[Baby Luigi]], [[Baby Wario]], [[Metal Mario (character)|Metal Mario]], [[Toadsworth]], and many other characters. Martinet portrayed the male bosses in ''[[Super Mario Advance]]'' as well. Martinet plays the vast majority of the male characters in the ''Mario'' series. [http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0553409/ The Internet Movie Database] attributes over 150 works to Martinet in total. Martinet speaks fluent French, English and Spanish, but, ironically, only a little Italian. His first voice over work at Nintendo was voicing the announcers, boxers and the referee in ''{{wp|Super Punch-Out!!}}'' for the [[Super Nintendo Entertainment System|SNES]]. |

''YouTube''.</ref> to be fitted for the [[Mario in Real Time]] system, wherein he had motion sensors attached to his face, which transposed his facial movements to a computer-generated Mario head on a screen. Martinet watched people passing by the screen through a hidden camera and talked to them as Mario; this was used rather often by Nintendo for promotional events.<ref>https://twitter.com/CharlesMartinet/status/1493266234644779012?s=09</ref> He would not start voicing Mario in games until the 1994 CD release of ''[[Mario Teaches Typing]]'' (featuring an altered form of Mario in Real Time). | | Martinet originally was not invited to audition for the role of Mario.

| Martinet's voice for Mario would be solidified as standard by its usage in ''[[Super Mario 64]]''. The non-Japanese version of ''[[Mario Kart 64]]'' would be the first game to feature him as the voice actor for Luigi and Wario (with him having developed the former's voice when trying to minimize his mouth movements while speaking in Mario in Real Time),<ref>[https://youtu.be/UReCxGzQRvw?si=2k6twLDMG8lWMlqd]</ref> and he went on to also voice Waluigi upon the character's introduction in ''[[Mario Tennis (Nintendo 64)|Mario Tennis]]''. Martinet has been recognized by ''[[Guinness World Records]]'' as providing the "most video game voiceover performances as the same character" (at least 100 as Mario, as of the release of ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]'').<ref>[https://twitter.com/CharlesMartinet/status/1073644309755412480/photo/1?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1073644309755412480&ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.eurogamer.net%2Farticles%2F2018-12-15-charles-martinet-awarded-guinness-world-record-for-100-mario-video-game-voiceovers ''Twitter'' post by Charles Martinet]</ref> | | Martinet first officially voiced Mario with ''[[Mario in Real Time]]'' in 1994, when he had motion sensors hooked to his face, which transposed his facial movements to a computer-generated Mario head on a screen. Martinet watched people passing by the screen through a surveillance camera and talked to them as Mario. This is used rather often by Nintendo when attending trade shows. An altered form of ''Mario in Real Time'' appeared in 1995's ''[[Mario's FUNdamentals]]''. The first video game to have Mario portrayed by Charles Martinet is ''Mario's Game Gallery'', which was later reissued as ''Mario's FUNdamentals. |

|
| In 2021, when asked if he wanted to voice Mario in the ''[[The Super Mario Bros. Movie]]'', Martinet stated, "[I]t sounds like a marvelous thing, it sounds like great fun and if they invite me to play, I'll go in and play with great joy and happiness,"<ref>[https://www.nintendolife.com/news/2021/02/charles_martinet_would_love_to_voice_mario_in_upcoming_illumination_movie Nintendo Life: Charles Martinet Would Love To Voice Mario In Upcoming Illumination Movie]</ref> similar to his statements from 2003 of wanting an "animated movie" and that he "would love to do every voice for Nintendo [he] possibly could."<ref>[https://www.nsidr.com/archive/e3-interview-charles-martinet/ nsidr: E3 Interview: Charles Martinet] [https://web.archive.org/web/20200507024715/https://www.nsidr.com/archive/e3-interview-charles-martinet/ (archive)]</ref> Martinet would ultimately not go on to voice Mario and Luigi in the movie (with the characters instead being voiced by [[Chris Pratt]] and [[Charlie Day]], respectively, in English), but he provided the voices of [[Papa Mario|their father]] and [[Giuseppe]] in several languages.

| On August 21, 2023, Nintendo announced that Martinet would no longer be voicing characters in the ''Super Mario'' franchise, and he would be taking on the role of [[Mario Ambassador]],<ref>https://twitter.com/NintendoAmerica/status/1693624002982314108</ref> which entails interacting with fans, signing autographs, and performing his ''Super Mario'' voices at events. The final ''Super Mario'' game released prior to this that features his voice was ''[[Mario + Rabbids Sparks of Hope]]'' (although the [[Summer Tour (2023)|2023 Summer Tour]] in ''[[Mario Kart Tour]]'', which began the day after the announcement, introduced a variant of Mario with a new voice line by him), while the final game in the franchise in which he recorded new voice lines was ''[[WarioWare: Get It Together!]]'' He was succeeded by [[Kevin Afghani]], who has voiced Mario and Luigi starting with ''[[Super Mario Bros. Wonder]]'', Wario starting with ''[[WarioWare: Move It!]]'',<ref>https://www.ign.com/articles/nintendo-confirms-charles-martinet-is-not-involved-in-super-mario-bros-wonder</ref> and Waluigi starting with ''[[Super Mario Party Jamboree]]''.<ref>https://twitter.com/KevinAfghani/status/1847099431646384229</ref> However, Martinet's voice clips are still used in some newer games and [[reissue]]s of games that featured them originally,<ref name=LM2>gonintendo (August 22, 2023).

| {{quote|I think everybody in the world has so much impact. But you know we artists here at this great SacAnime, we get to talk experience with our fans' reaction to our work over 25 years, 30 years, 31 years for me, and it's a beautiful thing. I wish every electrician could hear 'thank you very much, that plug in the kitchen every day for 30 years, we had toast, my kids had toast in the morning!' Because it is true, we have so much impact on each other, and I think as a world, people are really good. You see so much news about how terrible things are, but human beings are truly truly good. That's what I wish for the world to understand, the beauty of humankind.|Charles Martinet|Sacramento Special Report<ref name="SacAnime Interview">[https://youtu.be/uWQsqw7JSkc: Charles Martinet Interview: "Mario Never Says No"].
