However, his voice clips were reused for ''[[Mario Party 2]]'' and ''[[Mario Kart: Super Circuit]]''. His performance influenced Luigi's voice in ''[[Super Smash Bros.]]'' and ''[[Super Smash Bros.

Trivia

  • Originally, Bardakoff wanted to be Toad's voice in Mario Kart 64, but after testing his voice in the studio, Koji Kondo told him that he has more of Luigi's voice than Toad's.[5][4]
    • Additionally, Bardakoff was not initially chosen to do a voice; he had to convince the sound programmer of Mario Kart 64 (Taro Bando or Yoji Inagaki) with a rare French Magic: The Gathering card in order to be let into the studio with Kondo.[4][5]
