Charles was amazing - and, for me, irreplaceable. Was there really a need to bring in someone else? He's very much capable of continuing in the role now and, when the time comes for him to hang up his moustache, we already have more authentic sounding AI tools that could have filled-in the blanks for future games. Re-casting just feels jarring. Mario = Charles.
It really makes you appreciate how utterly brilliant Charles was - everything he did had a touch of magic. Hearing someone else impersonate him feels jarring, just because Charles IS Mario in my mind. I'm not sure I'm going to get used to it.
