He voices several major characters, including [[Mario]], [[Luigi]], [[Wario]], [[Waluigi]], [[Baby Mario]], [[Baby Luigi]], [[Baby Wario]], [[Metal Mario]], the male bosses in ''[[Super Mario Advance]]'', and many other male characters in the [[Mario (franchise)\|''Mario'' franchise]]. He also voices some members of the [[Koopa Troop]], such as [[Goomba]]s, [[Bob-omb]]s, [[Monty Mole]]s, [[Whomp]]s, and [[Thwomp]]s, all of which use pitch-shifted versions of Mario's voice samples from ''[[Super Mario 64]]''. [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, not much Italian. His first voice over work at [[Nintendo]] was voicing the announcers, boxers, and the referee in ''[[mh:nintendo:Super Punch-Out!!\|Super Punch-Out!!]]''. At the time of his audition, Charles Martinet had never heard of Mario or [[Nintendo]].<ref name=UK/> Martinet originally was not invited to audition for the role of Mario; according to him, he crashed the auditions and was asked to do an Italian accent. His recordings left so much of an impression that they were the only ones sent to Nintendo.<ref>http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r4Eudb_Tqg8</ref> A former Shakespearean actor, Martinet has stated that Mario's voice was based on his voice for Gremio, a character from ''{{wp\|The Taming of the Shrew}}''.<ref>http://www.gooddealgames.com/interviews/int_Charles_Martinet.html</ref> '''Charles Martinet''' (last name pronounced ''mar-tin-AY''), born September 17, 1955 in San Jose, California, is the prominent voice actor of the [[Mario (series)\|Mario]] games. He plays the major characters [[Mario]], [[Luigi]], [[Wario]] (as well as their baby counterparts), [[Waluigi]] and [[Toadsworth]]. Martinet also plays minor characters, such as [[Wart]] and other [[List of bosses\|bosses]] from ''[[Super Mario Bros. 2]]'' 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 seventy works to Martinet in total. Martinet speaks fluent French and Spanish, but, ironically, only a little Italian. Martinet's [[first officially voiced Mario in ~~Real~~the ~~Time~~''[[Super Mario Bros.

Martinet watched people passing by the screen through a surveillance camera and talked to them as Mario. This ~~was~~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\|Mario's Game Gallery]]'', ~~with~~(later reissued as ~~Martinet~~''Mario's ~~voice~~FUNdamentals''), ~~though~~which ~~most~~is ~~consider~~the ~~Mario's~~first ~~voice~~video ~~debut~~game to ~~be ''[[Super~~have Mario ~~64]]''~~portrayed inby Charles ~~[[1996]]~~Martinet. Though he will not be voicing Mario and Luigi in the ''[[The Super Mario Bros. Movie]]'', Martinet has been confirmed to be providing cameo voices. In 2023, Martinet retired from his voice work, with [[Kevin Afghani]] taking his role of being the voice actor of Mario. ==''Mario'' character roles== Line 33 ⟶ 37: [[MC Ballyhoo]] (''[[Mario Party 8]]'') [[Big Top]] (''Mario Party 8'') Various enemies ==Portrayals== ''[[Super Mario Bros.
