Mario: Difference between revisions

Like many other protagonists of Nintendo games, Mario rarely fully speaks in the mainline video games, making him a mostly semi-silent protagonist. In early games, however, Mario fully speaks for long periods of time, such as in ''[[Mario's Game Gallery]]'' and ''[[Mario Teaches Typing 2]]''. Mario speaks English, sometimes broken, with a heavy Italian accent and in a soft, high-pitched voice, often referring to himself in the third person. There are some games where Mario has also been given complete dialogue bubbles, such as ''[[Itadaki Street DS]]'' and ''Fortune Street''. Mario has also spoken in full sentences in various promotional events such as the 2006 interview for ''New Super Mario Bros.'',<ref>Inkydog (November 8, 2007).
