Meet the voice of Super Mario – Charles Martinet

Martinet is the voice actor behind the most famous character in video games – Super Mario.

In Australia on a promotional tour, Martinet has voiced gaming giant Nintendo’s quirky plumber for more than 20 years.

Martinet’s voice talents can be heard in more than 200 games which include other Nintendo favorites like Luigi, Wario and Toadsworth.

But it was only a chance decision to reluctantly attend an audition that would change Martinet’s life.

“I crashed the audition, I was at the beach and a friend told me to go along,” he said.
