Justin Berti is an American actor who served as the commentator in the English version of Mario Kart Arcade GP 2.

Biography[edit]

Berti lived in Japan for 12 years, developing much of his career in that time working in professions such as acting, modelling and dancing. He has likened this experience to "living the life of a rockstar". Berti describes himself as an energetic and animated person, claiming these traits enabled him to easily connect with the alleged campiness of Japanese entertainment.[1]

After performing notable jobs as a voice actor and announcer for the World Baseball Classic league at various Japanese stadiums, Berti was contacted by an agent to audition at Namco Bandai for the role of announcer in Mario Kart Arcade GP 2. He recalls being given limited direction during the audition, his duty being to narrate a number of lines that would be mixed in-game to provide live commentary ("Luigi", "is now in second place" etc.)[1]

Berti's favorite Mario Kart characters are Donkey Kong and Wario, the latter of whom he likes for his catchphrase, "I'm-a gonna win". When playing Mario Kart games competitively, Berti prefers characters with good acceleration, citing Pac-Man in the Mario Kart Arcade GP games as an example despite Pac-Man being more of a balanced driver in Mario Kart Arcade GP 2.[1]
