I need to talk about the Mario thing. The first time we heard him speak was N64, when he said “It’s a me, Mario,” with an accent that is clearly not from New York or New Jersey. And now he’s all of a sudden not Italian?

Yeah, mb it was suposed to mean super but aparently the original info was bullshit and the it’s a me is official

That’s interesting, apparently false, itsumi means something else that I forgot in the time it took me to swipe back over to Lemmy here, but I do like the line of thinking.

Well it's obvious, Mario is the name, Itsumi the surname.

Ha, I used to love this show as a kid, so thanks for that. Felt like a fever dream.

I heard “Hot pickle!” in a completely unrecognizable accent and have been confused ever since. Was it Mario that said that? Lakitu? Whose voice is that if not Mario’s and if it is Mario… What the hell? Lol
He says it when you select a level to play.

It’s “let’s a go!”
Dozzi92@lemmy.world 1 day ago
Yeah, this is it. I understood him because I’m of Italian descent from New Jersey.

I have tried to hear that instead of “Hot pickle!” for years and I just can’t. This feels like another of of those blue dress/yanni things to me.

Right. Listen. Next time I get an emulator going, right, if Mario says “Hot pickle!” And i can’t unhear it, I’m gonna come for you.
