  • Yoshi's voice is really iconic, right? But go back to the 1990s, and Yoshi had a totally different, and also very iconic voice! So, why did Nintendo change Yoshi's voice - and where did his original voice from Super Mario World even come from? Let's answer the question of why Yoshi doesn't sound like he used to!

    There was one game that used both Kondo's soundss and Totaka's voice: Yoshi's Island on the GBA. In that game, Totaka's voice replaced most of Yoshi's sounds from the SNES game, EXCEPT the sound Yoshi makes when you retrieve Baby Mario, onto Yoshi's back.

      *_Seriously,_* I desperately, *_desperately, DESPERATELY_* want Nintendo to release 12-to-13 unique character skins for Yoshi - each one with a unique colour: red, orange, yellow, green, blue, purple/violet, pink, cyan, brown, white, gray and black - as well as a character slot for Boshi (as a playable character) and have each of them have their own unique voice clips that are/were done by Kazumi Totaka as well as unique winning, losing, etc. animations for the _Super Mario Party_ and/or _Mario Party Superstars_ video games as a free update/paid DLC!!!

    If Yoshi is in the new Mario movie, I think he should be voiced by someone who can pull of an adorable rearing voice. Christopher Knights who voiced Private in the Madagascar movies might be a good choice or some celebrity or comedian who can pull it off.
    You know what? I think there might be someone and I hope they cast him for the sequel. It’s Howie Mandel, he was the voice of Gizmo from Gremlins and his voice acting is exactly like Yoshi’s

      Soundfonts as a format aren't really used in consoles, I'm pretty sure most consoles (GBA, N64, NDS etc.) just use custom imported samples. The SNES and N64 (and others as well) did have an SDK (Sound Development Kit) that had some prebuilt sounds which were used in multiple games.

I'm okay with some progress over the years, some things may change. But re-releasing a classic and change some remarkable parts just because it fits newer games is not cool.
