      I know that's it hard to lose Charles. He was iconic, I agree. But even so, I still wish the new voices for Mario and Nintendo in general well. All good things must come to an end, even of what that is known to be beautiful. He will surely, be missed.

    I saw him in person at E3 back in 2015 completely unexpectedly. He told a story about how he designed a level in Mario Maker full of coins so he could just run through and pick them all up. He was everything I hoped he would be and more.

I had him sign my Mario's cement factory game and watch cause its so niche, and I doubt anybody else has a charles martinet signed marios cement factory in their collection. But yeah, overall, great guy!

    For those with a keen eye and have seen another panel with the current voice actors of Mario's biggest competitor, will know that a joke was mentioned about wanting to do something in an hour; and what was not mentioned unless you seen the other comment or been at the event, both voice actors were at the event within a few hundred feet (or fewer) from each other.

    I clicked on the video because I was curious to see what kinda questions Charles got asked n stuff and I came out of those first 23 minutes absolutely floored. Life changing stuff. This man’s authenticity, honesty and openness is nigh unmatched for someone of such a high status. I even got to experience those things firsthand when I met him at a con. Before my little brother and I went up to meet him he was talking with his agent about an issue, and when he finished talking he turned to us and said “Hi sorry I’m having my moment.” We then had some brief dialogue about his issue of how the loudspeakers were too loud and it was impacting his ability to interact with fans. From there it was the obvious “you were my childhood,” fun little signings and pics, etc. but just the act of meeting Charles while he wasn’t in the best of spirits (which may also have had to do with the fact that the announcement of his retirement from Mario was only days away by that point) and being able to acknowledge that with him ever so briefly was my biggest takeaway by far. It was just more of that authenticity in action. Charles will always be my Mario❤️
