    I met Kenny James who did Bowser's voice in every game that he is featured in after Super Mario Sunshine. He told me that voicing Bowser is a very physically painful experience after doing that rough and guttural sounding voice for four hours a day. He is a very nice guy if you ever get a chance to meet him at local convention like I did.

Thank you for bringing these amazing people to light so we can praise them for their works!

    On the topic of Bowser's voice, I have done *absurd* amounts of research. If you're interested, I'm always willing to share for future videos and whatnot, Thomas! Also, a couple fun fact: The "defeated" clip for Bowser in Super Mario 64 was reused in a different cut for his taunt in Smash Bros. Melee, and the Chimpanzee stock clips used for Ukiki in Super Mario 64 were reused for almost all of Donkey Kong's clips in non-Rare games on the Nintendo 64 and early GameCube (other than Smash 64 and Melee), all the way up through Mario Parties 4 through 7, AS WELL as Diddy Kong's voice clips in Smash games from Brawl onward. Donkey Kong's old voice becoming Diddy Kong's new voice is one of my all-time favorite coincidences in Nintendo history!

    I already knew that Boo's old sound in the N64 days was a sped up version of Bowser's, but hearing that it actually altogether came from Charles Martinet himself laughing really is a SHOCK and total coincidence! My childhood is haunted. But the big cat and pig sounds isn't that much of a surprise, because I knew Bowser had to sound like a beast as he is (I knew the cougar roar was familiar). Kinda strange that in the Super Mario 64 game itself, his sounds are in a lower pitch than the original recordings.
    But 7:03 caught me completely off-guard. I didn't know the Uikki and Donkey Kong himself (In Mario Party/Mario Kart 64 at least) shared the same angry chimpanzee stock sound!

    Mario: the main character and has little personality.

    Mario has 4 emotions:
    "Yippee!" or "Wahoo!"
    "WWWAAAaAaAaHhH!" or "Mama Mia!"
    "OOoOf!" or "HoOAaH!" and

    As soon as you played the original laugh used for Bowser and the Boos, it was clear it was Charles, but it’s mind blowing he recorded that before actually being hired on as Mario!

  • @NintendoTV64
    @NintendoTV64 Před 4 lety +1

    So Charles also voiced Bowser and the Boos as well as Mario? I honestly thought for the longest time that Bowser and Boo's N64 voices were recorded by the actor who voiced Toad in Mario Kart 64, Isaac Marshall (the credits for Mario games really need to clarify who voices who).

  • @Lucky_Number113

    Apparently this sound or a very similar sound was used for the Gonarch in Half Life and was later used for a creepy sound loop that a hidden Easter egg radio in Portal 2 would play! :)

    @KingdomHeartsBrawler Před 4 lety +1

    So, Bowser's laugh is slowed-down Charles Martinet (and the Boos are sped-up Charles Martinet). That cougar growl also sounds like it was used for Bowser in various Mario Party games. As for the pig roar(?), that's been used for a few monsters, and Bowser had that voice in Melee.

      I forget if it’s true or not. It might’ve been a NoA fabrication along with the the seven sages being “the seven wise men”, and the sacred realm being something else too. They changed a lot in “Triforce of the Gods” when they made it into “A Link to the Past”.
      NoA also changed “Gannon” to “Ganon”. It was supposed to be “Gannon”, tho... That spelling was intentional. It’s an actual name, like “Zelda”. And from a similar region too.

    -A stock growl sound is Bowser's fire breath sound
    -A combination of stock pig and boar squeal sounds made up Bowser's defeat growl
