Charles Martinet was perfect for the role in part because he is such a unique guy with the right personality. Kevin Afghani, on the other hand, is just a guy.

Well that's... exactly what I expected.

Lost Levels. Yes, Lost Levels.

@nessisonett If you get offended by people's simplicity or ignorance, you're not going to have a good time.

@nessisonett When we say "British accent" we mean one of the many accents spoken in the United Kingdom. We know it's not just one accent. Whether you're from England or Scotland, to Americans you sound British. It's not intended to be dismissive or offensive.

@Uncle_Franklin I'll think about it 😆

@samuelvictor They do it all the time with the "wahoo" and "here we go!", which is just as annoying. Only Miyamoto, Martinet, and the new guy who voices Mario have the right to utter those sounds.

There is a right way to enjoy a Sonic game, and most don't seem to get it.

They have a playable demo at Target, if anyone's interested. They let you play for about 15 minutes, which was enough for me to get a good feel of the game.

@dew12333 I agree with you, but you should know by now that type of opinion is not welcome on this site.

Star Fox Adventures is one of my favorite games of all time. Its only shortcoming is that it's too short (no pun intended).

I can't wait to get lost and not finish this game again!

I like NA's cover better, but I picked the Japanese one because it reminded me of when I was in kindergarten for some reason. 87%-13% is wild.

@AstroTheGamosian Calm down, Karl, this is Nintendo Life.

Starting May 2006 I would call the game store daily to check if they got NSMB early. After a few day they would pick up and immediately say "no, it's not here yet". Needles to say, I was the happiest kid in the world when I finally had it in my hands.

@BTB20 Thanks for letting me know. Maybe from now on I'll watch the UK Direct instead.

Two absolutely wonderful men; I'm glad to say I've met them both.

I wish they used subtitles when Shigeru Miyamoto speaks on Nintendo Direct events, I love hearing him speak and I can't stand the ridiculous voice they use for the dubbing.

Am I the only one who had no idea this game even existed? Either way, NA/EU is a beautiful looking cover, and it got my vote.

Everyone seems to be missing the point here; you're not supposed to like it. It's not for you, it was made for ME.

@ancientlii No, they most definitely have not.

The Japanese cover is a little too much, in my opinion; what's with the blood red background? This is Excite Bike! Now the North American/European one just hits the spot.

As much as I like the classic American version, that Japanese cover is absolutely glorious. I'm surprised I'd never seen it before.

@Member_the_game That's a very valid point.

@KayFiOS That's an excellent summary as to why the DS version is actually a good remake. You're right about the touch screen gimmicks, but I found them surprisingly easy to get used to. Also the graphics were quite nice for a DS game.

What's with the hate for the DS version? I love the original with all my heart and I thought the remake was fantastic. I swear people these days just get a prepackaged talking point and just run with it.

The Japanese covers are cute, but the classic NA/European is one of the most important game covers in history.

@LXP8 Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts and Bolts is indeed a great game, and one of my all time favorites. Thank you for bringing it up!

Hey! Pikmin is a good game. Many hate it just because they were told to; same situation with Metroid Prime: Federation Force which is not a bad game at all.

Open world Mario and Luigi.

@PessitheMystic I think the guys at Nintendo just happen to really like dogs. Also, don't be too harsh on people saying "doggo", the Venn diagram of Nintendo Life and Reddit users is a circle.

The European version is more faithful to to the original, which is one of my top 5 favorite game covers of all time.

Thankfully he didn't sell them the ending too.

I knew there would come a day when Mario would just start doing actual shrooms.

@Banjo- I don't think anyone can disagree with that; SMB3 is my favorite 2D Mario, but visually SMW is superior.

You have a pretty cool username (and avatar) too.

@Banjo- New Super Mario Bros.' graphics might have lost their charm through the years, but when the first one came out on DS I genuinely thought it was a beautiful looking game, and to me it still looks fine.

16/17. I only got question #4 wrong because I tapped a wrong answer by accident.

He's a dragon; he's probably a couple hundred years old.

Absolutely depressing.

Are people really triggered by the "Great Again" part of the title? Why not just enjoy the content of the article?

@johnvboy You know, before Scarlet and Violet I would've totally agreed with you. I never got those "more of the same" complaints. But the criticism about the quality of the latest versions is justified; they were rushed and it shows.

@Pflipflops You're not alone my friend.

Twilight Princess was the peak of the TLoZ franchise. It has all the elements that make a Zelda game legendary.

BotW and TotK are great games, but not great Zelda games.

That's a ridiculously long intro for a site called "Instant Gaming". Not so instant after all.

@ArcadianLegend99 Now I hope you're being sarcastic.

The mainstream media don't seem to understand how much the general public hates them.

I've neve smoked, but smokers are more fun to hang around than self righteous anti-smokers.

Tears of the Kingdom Ganondorf reminds me of Johnny Bravo; I can't take him seriously.

@Kirgo You're too reasonable. Quit trying to understand that whole thing and keep your sanity.
