The results are, um, mixed. It’s one of the few times a Mario character has received complete voice acting. Toad certainly has a cute voice, but we can see how repeated exposure to his solemn intonation may grow tiresome.
Even still, it’s an intriguing look at how the Mario universe might truly sound with voice acting present, and we’d really like to see this in action in a future Mario game. The Super Mario Bros. Movie, set to debut on April 7, 2023, is the closest thing we’re likely to have in the near future.
