The original voice of Mario is stepping away from the role, Nintendo says | CNN

Charles Martinet, who has voiced the beloved plumber since “Super Mario 64,” will become an “ambassador” for Mario rather than record new audio, Nintendo said.

    I feel like I used to have a Mario card game on my 90’s Macintosh? We played go fish in the back of a limo or something… I recall he had pretty complex voice lines in that game.

      I’m pretty sure all the edutainment titles predate Charles Martinet as the voice of Mario, and I don’t think Nintendo would ever make a game like that these days.

        The wiki page literally says Charles Martinet voiced Mario in that game.

        The CNN article says Martinet started with Mario Teaches Typing in 1994.
