NCL was impressed with his range and selected him to do various odd voices{{refneeded}}. Among his voice acting roles in the ''[[Mario (series)|Mario]]'' series, was as the voice of [[Toad]] in the overseas versions of ''[[Mario Kart 64]]''.
 
Isaac would later leave Nintendo to continue working in gaming while providing voice-over work under various aliases for TV and Film/Animation (Anime){{refneeded}}. When asked about his work with Nintendo and his voicework, he has commented the following:
 
"''Nintendo was a great experience. Being an 18 year-old kid sitting in a room discussing conceptual ideas with Shigeru Miyamoto was a dream fulfilled. However, that was the tip of the iceberg... I wasn't content with designing a game and being a voice in it. I had to do more. I wanted to utilize myself fully on any project. You know, challenge myself. Reinvent myself.''"{{refneeded}}
 
He also said: {{br}}
''"I do it because it's fun. I'm not on some mission to be a big name. I prefer to work in the shadows. Because that's were the real magic is a constant. Also, having these "aliases" keeps me humble.''"{{refneeded}}
 
Isaac currently resides in Seattle, Washington{{refneeded}}.
