The new voice of Mario who is the new voice of Wario, is also the voice of Luigi. Either this man is a talent who can do multiple voices, or they sound the same. I didn't play enough to know the answer. Has anyone listened closer?

The original voice actor, Charles Martinet, also did Mario, Luigi, Wario, and Waluigi himself.

Do you think voice actors can only do one voice? Being able to do multiple different voices is the basic requirement for a voice actor, unless you're one of the select few who get away with one voice (looking at you Patrick Warburton), but for most voice actors, they learn by mimicking as many characters as they can.

If you say so and I think about, It makes sense. It's like an actor playing different roles in movies. I was really impressed when reading the news the Mario voice actor could do Wario as well and feel kinda dumb now. :D

Sall good, I forget people aren't as obsessed with voice actors as I am, there's some really talented people out there doing voice acting and I hope more roles can open up for them.
