Reply to Charles Martinet's voice is, and always has been, wrong for Mario, not Chris Pratt's by LocalAfter4312

I always thought that N64 version of Mario's voice was horrible. When I first heard it I was like, "what the fuck is that?" Super high-pitched, lazy Italian inflection, never sounded like a plumber from Brooklyn to me. That said, Chris Pratt is an awful choice. I agree with others saying Devito feels like a no brainer

Lived in NY most of my life and yes they have an accent but it's def not the same accent as someone from Italy who first learned to speak Italian. Italian Americans love to juice up certain words but no one from Italy would mistake their accent for anything but Italian-American. Dude is right
