It really more like, who ever wrote those lines was a rear end in a top hat. If they had tone down the "Super Duper" lines it would have been fine.

It was probably Charles Martinet (or whatever his name is) himself who fluffed it up with Mario-isms. He did something like this during an E3 back in the 90s where the computer Mario head talked to random people.

He does that every E3 and it's awful.

Someone earlier in the thread mentioned Mario's voice and how it doesn't have good range. Well, we were just at Target and were looking at amiibo when my daughter says, "that's not his voice, that's not his voice!" I was confused and said, yeah, that's the way he always sounds. I thought she was just being weird, but then she said, "no, like on the show!" I then realized she was talking about the Super Show.

She's three and already Captain Lou's voice is more authentic to her despite her hearing the new voice in the games and stuff.

I don't really think there's anything wrong with the current Mario and Luigi voices, but the Super Show voices fit a couple of old fat plumbers better than the current eunuch voice.

What?

I wonder if she would like the Zelda and Sonic cartoons.

It's from the opening theme. It says "you'll be hooked on the brothas the brothas the brothas..." The three raps she loves: Mario Rap from this show, TMNT opening, and inexplicably, The D.K. Rap.

She loves the little ads for the Zelda cartoon but unfortunately they aren't on Netflix. Might get her the DVDs for her birthday, but usually we stay with streaming for convenience and anti-clutter. She loves Wind Waker.

Yeah, I don't hate the new one but I love the fat plumber voice the best. Less grating on the ears.

She actually does not care for Pokémon beyond watching me play Omega Ruby from time to time. No idea why she gets a kick out of fat Italian plumbers but hates cute little animals pitted in direst battle. This a girl that loves the color pink, yet her favorite game character is Donkey Kong. She is a walking contradiction.

I noticed that it wasn't until collectors starting spitting out their prices as gospel truth on their YouTube channels that buying old games really became a pain.

I can't wait until GameStop starts marking up even the shittiest of SNES games just because they're SNES games.

The good news is that all of the Legend of Zelda cartoons are on YouTube right now in the year of our Lord 2015.

The bad news is that Link is a rapist. Seriously. Go watch the cartoon and report back. If you get any other impression, it's because you're a redditor.

And then video game companies re release them digitally for cheap. Still wondering if I should sell this copy of Misadventure of Tron Bonne that I got at a garage sale for a buck and used some of the money to buy the PSN ver.

The SNES market is so hosed.

SFC games are dirt cheap because shops in Japan have these games in high abundance and local sellers (or ebay people) need to move product online for cheaper since people can just scoot 5 miles downtown to get the game they want.

SNES used games are more expensive because even games everyone has are rare or uncommon to find because no one except mom and pop shops *might* have them. Chrono Trigger is a semi-good example of this. People didn't care until the SNES was a bit gone, however. Same goes for Earthbound.

However, GS selling SM World for $25 raised the ebay prices from around $15 to around $25 because Gamestop is online too and changed the going rate for the game to be higher than its average beforehand.

Luckily, the SNES/SFC era didn't have a lot of text reliant games outside of RPGs, so I can really take advantage of getting Yoshi's Island for $12 dollars.

good plan

I think I might just buy SFC versions of games unless one of my friends will loan me some of his.

I can get World, Kart, All-Stars Yoshi's Island, Mario & Wario, and RPG for $50 and at that price I can just sell RPG, take it as a small loss and buy the English version.

e: Scratch that. RPG goes for many dollars.
