Isaac Marshall (August 22, 1962 – ) is a Game designer/voice actor/Audio Designer from Michigan, who voiced characters for Nintendo in the 90's. His knack for imitating friends and cartoon characters was realized by many at Nintendos R&D group where he worked as a game designer/audio designer. Later, Isaac would send an audio tape to NCL with 1 min of various voices spoken in a multitude of languages. They were impressed with his range and selected him to do various odd voices. Among his voice acting roles in the Marioverse, one of his most well-known roles is the voice of Toad in Mario Kart 64. He also was the voice of Birdo and Bowser in some of nintendo's games.
When asked in a recent interview about his work with Nintendo and his voicework, he commented :
"Nintendo was a great experience. Being an 18 year-old kid sitting in a room discussing conceptual ideas with Shigeru Miyamoto was a dream fulfilled. However, that was the tip of the iceburg... I wasnt content with designing a game and being a voice in it. I had to do more. I wanted to utilize myself fully on any project. You know, challenge myself. Reinvent myself."
Isaac would leave Nintendo to continue working in gaming while providing voice over work under various aliases for TV and Film/Animation(Anime). When asked about this, he commented; "I do it because its fun. Im not on some mission to be a big name. I prefer to work in the shadows. Becuase thats were the real magic is a constant. Also, having these "aliases" keeps me humble."
Isaac currently resides in seattle.
