Trivia
- Mike Vaughn recorded only one session in October of 2009 for the title: "New Super Mario Brothers." Those same audio files have been used over and over again in every title that Iggy and Ludwig appear in since. Mike Vaughn has publicly called this action a theft by Nintendo as the usage release signed by both parties prohibited Nintendo from using those files in advertisements or promotions. While not specifically restricting usage in future games, Mr. Vaughn admits, "who in their right mind would have thought that a major game producer would use the same audio in future titles? Seems like a great way to make really bad, repetitive games to me." Loss of income for re-use fees (a standard in the industry) is estimated at $1,700 per game which as of Sept. 2014 is 5 additional unpaid titles. Reference: [[1]]
