    I always wondered who was behind the Mario voice. Nifty...he doesn't even have to say that much and it still ends up being quite effective!

    Hey, say what ya want about the guy, but he's apart of one of the biggest--hell, scratch that, THE biggest video game icon out there, which is part of the biggest (possibly most influential) video game companies out there. That's more than anything we'll ever amount too in our miserable lives .

    Yeah yeah, Sonic? Sony? All great figures, absolute giants in their own right, but face it, not as big as Mario & Nintendo, despite sales. Microsoft is big, but not as big as Nintendo when it comes to games. My dad who never played a game in his life will instantly recognize Mario, and the word "Nintendo". Hah, when your parents want you to stop playing the game, they'll tell you to "turn off that Nintendo!" no matter what you're playing.

    And this is the man behind the voice behind the company. Awesome.
