The legendary voice of Mario, Charles Martinet, has admitted during a recent GalaxyCon Austin panel in the US<\/a> that he doesn’t actually know what exactly his new role as “Mario ambassador” involves. And although he’s entering a new chapter, he’s apparently “not retired” yet.<\/p>\n

If you weren’t sure how this new role would work, you’re not alone. After Nintendo announced this “brand-new” position for Martinet, the famous voice actor has revealed he’ll be learning about it in the “future”, like everyone else:<\/p>\n

“I am now, you might have seen the news, I’m a Mario Ambassador, I don’t know what that is yet, I’m not retired as it were, but I’m an ambassador and as we step forward into the future I will learn, we’ll all learn what exactly that is but in the meantime…I’m always an ambassador of Nintendo and Mario and all of these events because I just cherish every moment of it, and I hope your love of the games continues and grows the way mine does, so thank you so much.”<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

After mentioning this, he told the audience not to ask him questions about this new role – reiterating how he doesn’t know “anything about it”. According to Nintendo’s original announcement<\/a>, Martinet will appear in a special video message alongside Shigeru Miyamoto in the future, so hopefully, it will be a bit clearer by then.<\/p>\n

As for upcoming projects like Super Mario Bros. Wonder<\/a> and WarioWare Move It!<\/a>, it’s been confirmed by Nintendo Martinet is “not involved” in these projects. However, he will return in Luigi’s Mansion: Dark Moon<\/a> on the Switch as it’s a re-release. Outside of Mario, Charles has appeared in some other recent VA projects like last year’s Dragon Ball Super movie, Super Hero.<\/p>\n
