This is the first game I ever played and fell in love with it but then we lost the n64 then 9 years later it comes out for switch that for me just is crazy because every day I wished for it to come out for the switch and it did
This song hits so hard after the recent news. Charles Martinet will no longer provide the voice of Mario. Someone new will be voicing him starting in Super Mario Bros Wonder as confirmed by Nintendo themselves. This truly is the end of an era. Thank you, Charles, for enlightening countless people across the world with that jovial energy you gave Mario and friends.
"Thank you so much for playing my game" -Charles 1996 And thank you for making the childhoods of so many and marking the voice of the most iconic video game character ever, ❤
Just wanted to say thank you to Charles on a personal level, if it wasn't for his voice as both the bros I don't think I'd have as much as an attachment as I do now. He gave them so much personality with every line, and seeing that he's stepping down is the biggest wrench in my heart. So thank you Charles Martinet for your wonderful voices, your always my number-a 1 in my heart
I remember playing Super Mario 64. Nintendo 64 was one of the earliest game consoles I've played. The joys of growing up in the 90s and 2000s. Few video game icons touched my heart like Mario did. Thanks to Charles Martinet, I've had such fondness for this man. After three decades as Mario and his brother Luigi as well as the greedy Wario and his sidekick Waluigi among others, he's retiring from voicing one of video game history's most beloved characters to be an ambassador. He was the greatest person to ever bring to life such an unforgettable hero and SUPERSTAR weaved into popular culture who made so many people around the world full of excitement and positivity. Thank you, Charles. "It's a-me, Mario! Let's a-go!" - 1996. I will never forget the impact and the difference you've made.
I had the opportunity to meet the voice of Mario, Mr. Charles Martinet at Galaxycon. Before we parted ways I had the pleasure to have a little small talk with him. While we were talking this song happened to be playing at his booth. The last words he said to me was "Thank you so much for playing my game!" In the Mario voice. The nostalgia really hit me in that moment, I couldn't even speak, all I could do was smile and laugh. A truly amazing experience!!
World 7 in Super Mario 64 is *LETHAL LAVA LAND* . In other games such as New Super Mario Bros and New Super Mario Bros Wii, world 7 is technically heaven.
Hearing this song after hearing that Charles Martinet is no longer voicing Mario just makes this song so much more powerful. It doesn’t just feel like the end of a journey, it feels like the end of a legacy.
My sweet husky died last year, I played this song while burying her. Just like the game, a good adventure and happy moments concluded. Still I cry when listening to this song. Is my burial song for anybody whom I love dies. The song is not sad, but it takes the holy hell out of my tears when listening to it. Never forgetting this game nor the memories.
I played SM64 for a 100% walkthrough, and when the end came, I thanked my CATS for being a huge part of my life, so I can relate... Here's my 100% walkthrough link: th-cam.com/play/PLSdhFwu5JDx3FpRihfpzoYlAj6QJD9knO.html

“So long Charles martinet!“ Seriously though the magic of being THE most iconic voice in the modern era/ even EVER and being the voice of childhood is a one in a lifetime thing. Thank you Charles martinet! And look forward for new adventures!
Jeez shut it just let me enjoy my Nintendo music. It's been a pretty dumb trend just going around commenting rip iwata. Don't get me wrong I miss the guy too but nobody wants this comment to taint every nintendo related video.
No because he didn't work on this game and he didn't work on any Mario games until Sunshine. If anything they played a song from a game he's actually worked on, like Sad Story from SMG or the ending theme from the posthumously-released Kirby Planet Robobot.
Thank you Charles Martinet for bringing Mario, Luigi, Wario and Waluigi to life with your incredible voice talents, as well as being a big part of our childhoods. We all wish you the best in life and hope you will continue to do great things.
I know that feeling. One hell of a first game to beat as a kid. Wasn't mine but I totally know the feeling dude. This music takes me back to much more fun times. T_T

@@DustinTimberlake idk about that. While I haven't personally heard the phrase from people talking to me. I have heard/seen it somewhere online. Also when I tell my brother and some of my friends that I only listen to video game soundtracks they give me a weird look as if its weird to like only video game music
RIP Satoru Iwata. Thank you for making my childhood. "Only a handful of characters can last for one, two or three decades...” -Satoru Iwata (1959 - 2015, cause of death was bile duct cancer.)
This is the ending of one of the best games that was created on this planet. All five games came a long way, and we thank you, Nintendo. *Super Mario 64 - 1996* | _Happy 20th Anniversary!_ *Super Mario Sunshine - 2002* | _Happy 15th Anniversary!_ *Super Mario Galaxy - 2007* | _Happy 10th Anniversary!_ *Super Mario Galaxy 2 - 2010* | _Happy 7th Anniversary!_ *Super Mario Odyssey - 2017*
Tapu Kek None of them were open world, they were all sandbox games. Odyssey was almost close to being an open world game, but it’s not. 3D Land and World were NOT sandbox games, they were Super Mario Bros. games in 3D. I liked them, but they’re on the “Super Mario Bros.” list, not the “3D Mario Sandbox” list. Tapu Kek, they were CLEARLY different from each other. Super Mario 64, Sunshine, and Galaxy had the same gameplay elements and collect stars/shine sprites; 3D Land and World don’t have that element and finish levels by flagpoles.
We're not arguing, we're having a conversation and stating facts. I've been playing the Mario franchise for over 20 years and I know the first 3D Mario game was Super Mario 64. Like I said, Super Mario 3D Land and World are not sandbox Mario games, they have the SMB-style, it's just all in 3D. A 3D Mario game is always on console too, exclude SM64 DS because it's only a remake, but it's suppose to be on the console. People may consider it to be part of the 3D Mario series, but to me, it is not. It never will be. It was originally supposed to be a trilogy of Super Mario 64, (originally SM64 128 but that was scrapped) Super Mario Sunshine, and Super Mario Galaxy; because Galaxy was very popular, they made a sequel which was basically the same thing, except it has more galaxies, stars, and a new hub. Super Mario 3D Land and World are the same thing, except World is on console, has more players to play, a bigger world, and enhanced graphics. These two are COMPLETELY different from the first three; instead of stars or shine sprites, they have flagpoles to finish levels. 3D Land and World also have a time limit and the five 3D Mario games don't have a time limit... All of these show that 3D Land and World have Super Mario Bros. elements. You see where I’m getting at? 3D Land & World ≠ 3D Mario Chronology
This game means a lot to me, I was born late 2000s, but despite that, I managed to find this game. It was in an online emulator, where I couldn’t even save, but that didn’t stop me. This game will forever be a favourite.
I know that this is just a game, but oddly enough this end theme sounds somewhat emotional, even without the pictures in the game you could really see all you went through just by listening to this end theme. The game takes you on an adventure unlike any other, and the end theme is just to wrap you up and take you back to what you did on the adventure. I remember I got really upset when this was over because I didn’t want it to end. Don’t be upset that it’s over, be happy that it exists, and be even more happy that it expanded
Facts, i feel exactly the same, I'm only 12 years old and still nearly cries when i hear this song, it's something with it that makes you feel emotinal
Thank you Charles. Some of my earliest memories were of playing Mario when I was young on the wii. While I am saddened by the retirement I am thankful for the many years of joy and comfort Charles gave me and countless others. Charles not only gave Mario his voice, but he gave him his soul. Thank you ❤
Same. I was born like 10 years after this game's release, and Super Mario Galaxy has always been my nostalgia. But for some reason I feel like this song is the one I've been connecting to all this time.
Thank you Charles for giving your time and talent over the years, you will always be mario in the hearts of many. Here's hoping the new voice of mario will be just as good
This game is so magical. I started playing it when I was around 3 with my dad and brother, and after many years, I finally got to the ending when I was around 9. It made me cry, and let me tell you that very, very few things in media have made me want to cry. It’s so legendary, emotional, lasting, good-willed. That’s the feeling it evokes in me. I’m 21 years old now and I still look back and see the huge impact it had on my life. It really touches a nerve in me. I feel like this song is deeply rooted in my heart, in some way. When I listen to it, it always makes it fuzzy inside. I can’t help but to feel love and nostalgia, and to think it’s all connected to my child-self. It’s so emotional. Super Mario 64 will always be my favorite game of all time. It’s a really fun, creative game. Simple and amazing nowadays, while revolutionary in its day.
Charles Martinet... Thank you so much for being the voice of millions of childhoods, and may you enjoy your adventures as the Super Mario Embassador! So long, old friend. We'll miss you. ❤
I’m going back to the house to go to the gym with the girls for the night so I’ll let you know if you need anything or do I need to get something for dinner or dinner with 😢you know 🎉😊🎉😅🎉😅😢🎉😅😢😅😂😢😅
I know being an adult is scary It sucks to grow up But don’t worry, you’ll always have this Mario soundtracks to remember the happy kid and childhood you have many years ago
Well, it has been a journey. Charles Martinet is officially retiring as the voice of Mario... bittersweet hearing this music as I find out about these news, but hey, at least his voice will forever be in these legendary games and shall live on forever and ever! Thanks for everything, Nintendo, but specially Charles Martinet for being that iconic voice for such an iconic character. We will always love your work and hope for your life to be long and happy for being this awesome human being that brought life to such iconic characters.
He didn't make this game. He managed/oversaw projects and did presentations/promoted the company. The first person you should be crediting is Koji Kondo, the guy who composed all this great music.
This is a perfect song for nostalgia on, not only was it the last song, but it showed you all the locations you visited as mario. Damn good finale for the game right there.
Charles Martinet, your a legend Hold the torch up high, we celebrate your career And even though an era comes to an end... All the hearts your voice has touched, we'll still give a hearty cheer
Charles Martinet will always be remembered. This is not only the end theme to Mario 64 but the one for him aswell. I hope he will be Happy in his retirement
John Braddock True! It's happy and bouncy but knowing you just beat one the best games ever, it's over, and it's time to say goodbye is a bit sad. But thankfully you can always play it again later! It'll just never be like the first time you experience it, though...
The nostalgia is real, i remember collecting all 120 stars and just wishing there were more. Mario 64 was my introduction to video games and will always have a special place in my heart.
This song explains life's journey into one little song... It starts happy and cheerful then it gets ominous and dark. Then it comes back to happy. Then dark again. Then it comes back around again! And then you're in a hospital. That's where you remember everything you've done in life. Then you say your final goodbyes, then it's over.
@Ken narville just ignore the last part and its just pretty much life in a nutshell, you are a cheerful kid, high school-college is a bit dark beucase its a lot of work, rebellious teenage years, uncertainty about relationships, then it gets better once you graduate, settle down, find a wife and stable job, and it goes back to good tempo for the rest of the journey.
Charles Martinet was & will forever be the main voice of Mario, Luigi, Wario, Waluigi Thank you for the great memories Charles Martinet, hope your new role as the Mario Ambassador goes great
This song gets a lot more depressing as I get older. Back then though, it was truly a celebration of things to come. Sure games today aren't even a fraction as epic as these games were but we've come a long way with games.
TheJustin4848 Depends on personal taste and I think most games today are shit. Doesn't mean I don't play and love games that are coming out today. They just aren't fulfilling like these older titles. Give me more games like Dark Souls, NIER, Ni no Kuni, Deus Ex, etc. and then I'll speak differently.
Looking back though can we really be THAT grateful to Nintendo? Nintendo backing out of the SNES CD with Sony created their biggest competition in the market that forced them to change a lot of their company philosophies. That indirectly killed Sega off since the Dreamcast was crushed by the arrival of the Playstation 2. At the same time games got more cinematic because of Sony but now gameplay is something that is sidelined to graphics and theatrics these days. Cause and effect man. I guess it's not all bad. I love the Wii U and the PS4 shows a ton of promise. Games can still kick ass but I'm tired of the business and political end of gaming ruining the overall experience.
Yeah I'm sitting on a PC, PS4, Wii U, Wii, SNES, N64, PS2 and Gamecube. As you can see Microsoft systems doesn't really cater to my tastes. The 360 is a haven for one of my favorite genres though (SHMUPS).
I’m here after the Charles news. Thank you so much for all these years of Super Mario! I’m forever grateful for bringing out the most inspiring joyful character in gaming. You are the Super Star🌟
This song now hits harder now that Charles Martinet is saying goodbye to Mario. Thanks for making my childhood amazing and being the voice of the greatest video game character ever!
I may have never played Super Mario 64, but listening to this song with the recent news of Charles Martinet's retirement from voicing the silly Italian plumber is getting me teary-eyed. We're gonna miss you, Charles.
This hits even harder now that Charles Martinet is stepping down as the voice of Mario and has become the Mario ambassador. Thank you Charles Martinet! You’ll always be our Mario!
Thank you, Charles for Voicing Mario, For 27 Years! Your first breakout role game is my very first Mario game I played ever, and it unlocked a very special level in my heart loving the Mario franchise and for that I thank you and good luck on your retirement!

Thank you, Charles. You defined who Mario was, he wouldn't be the same without you.
Thank you for everything charles
I hate it when people say video game music isn't "real music"

@@DustinTimberlake I was going to comment that lmao
@@DustinTimberlake You just haven't heard it yet
@@DustinTimberlake idk about that. While I haven't personally heard the phrase from people talking to me. I have heard/seen it somewhere online. Also when I tell my brother and some of my friends that I only listen to video game soundtracks they give me a weird look as if its weird to like only video game music

*ANYTIME, MARIO!*
Fucking makes me break down when Mario thanks me holy shit
*INTENSE TEARS*
This is the ending of one of the best games that was created on this planet. All five games came a long way, and we thank you, Nintendo.

Exactly, they're considered to be more of a Super Mario Bros. game... the only difference is that it's just in 3D instead of 2D.
Mario jesus
Tapu Kek
None of them were open world, they were all sandbox games. Odyssey was almost close to being an open world game, but it’s not. 3D Land and World were NOT sandbox games, they were Super Mario Bros. games in 3D. I liked them, but they’re on the “Super Mario Bros.” list, not the “3D Mario Sandbox” list. Tapu Kek, they were CLEARLY different from each other. Super Mario 64, Sunshine, and Galaxy had the same gameplay elements and collect stars/shine sprites; 3D Land and World don’t have that element and finish levels by flagpoles.
We're not arguing, we're having a conversation and stating facts. I've been playing the Mario franchise for over 20 years and I know the first 3D Mario game was Super Mario 64. Like I said, Super Mario 3D Land and World are not sandbox Mario games, they have the SMB-style, it's just all in 3D. A 3D Mario game is always on console too, exclude SM64 DS because it's only a remake, but it's suppose to be on the console. People may consider it to be part of the 3D Mario series, but to me, it is not. It never will be. It was originally supposed to be a trilogy of Super Mario 64, (originally SM64 128 but that was scrapped) Super Mario Sunshine, and Super Mario Galaxy; because Galaxy was very popular, they made a sequel which was basically the same thing, except it has more galaxies, stars, and a new hub.
Super Mario 3D Land and World are the same thing, except World is on console, has more players to play, a bigger world, and enhanced graphics. These two are COMPLETELY different from the first three; instead of stars or shine sprites, they have flagpoles to finish levels. 3D Land and World also have a time limit and the five 3D Mario games don't have a time limit... All of these show that 3D Land and World have Super Mario Bros. elements. You see where I’m getting at?
3D Land & World ≠ 3D Mario Chronology
Mario AMEN BROTHER
Thank you so much for-a making my childhood, Charles. Sincerely...
This game means a lot to me,
I was born late 2000s, but despite that, I managed to find this game.
It was in an online emulator, where I couldn’t even save, but that didn’t stop me.
This game will forever be a favourite.
Relatable
Poorfag
I remembered finished the Game with the age of 11 and now i am 21... Fxck this hurts.. i was only thinking about the game that day
I'm not crying, you're crying...
we are crying
nope!
All of us are crying
It's true
Yes😢
I know that this is just a game, but oddly enough this end theme sounds somewhat emotional, even without the pictures in the game you could really see all you went through just by listening to this end theme. The game takes you on an adventure unlike any other, and the end theme is just to wrap you up and take you back to what you did on the adventure. I remember I got really upset when this was over because I didn’t want it to end. Don’t be upset that it’s over, be happy that it exists, and be even more happy that it expanded
well said.
Agreed
Same
Mario 64 has a special place in all the hearts of the nintendo fans born around that era my eyes water every time i hear this
Facts, i feel exactly the same, I'm only 12 years old and still nearly cries when i hear this song, it's something with it that makes you feel emotinal
Thank you Charles. Some of my earliest memories were of playing Mario when I was young on the wii. While I am saddened by the retirement I am thankful for the many years of joy and comfort Charles gave me and countless others. Charles not only gave Mario his voice, but he gave him his soul. Thank you ❤
“Thank you so much for playing my game!”

This song tugs at my heart even more now that Charles has retired even earlier than I expected.
Thank you Charles Martinet, Thank you so much for making us happy.
"Bye-bye"
No music ever makes me cry.
But this does.
Because this isn't music. It's a blessing.

RIP Mr. Iwata, I owe you, and a lot of other people working at Nintendo, a great part of my childhood. I feel so sad right now...
I feel the same way..
This seriously almost made me cry ;-;
Coming back here after Charles's retirement announcement.
Thanks for all of the memories, you absolute legend. 🫡
Thank you Charles, for giving me a childhood I would never forget. I will always love this franchise from the bottom of my heart.
I wasn't born in the Nintendo 64 era
but that song always touch my feelings
Same.
mario 64 ds?
@@valentds me too, i played only the 64 ds
I was born before GameCube but this gives me the feels.
Same. I was born like 10 years after this game's release, and Super Mario Galaxy has always been my nostalgia. But for some reason I feel like this song is the one I've been connecting to all this time.

Thank you for everything Charles, you made my childhood full of love and joy, may your brand new adventure be wonderful ❤
Thank you Charles for giving your time and talent over the years, you will always be mario in the hearts of many. Here's hoping the new voice of mario will be just as good
As someone who has played Mario Bros Wonder, I can confirm that Kevin Afghani absolutely delivered with Mario's voice.
This game is so magical. I started playing it when I was around 3 with my dad and brother, and after many years, I finally got to the ending when I was around 9. It made me cry, and let me tell you that very, very few things in media have made me want to cry. It’s so legendary, emotional, lasting, good-willed. That’s the feeling it evokes in me.
I’m 21 years old now and I still look back and see the huge impact it had on my life. It really touches a nerve in me. I feel like this song is deeply rooted in my heart, in some way. When I listen to it, it always makes it fuzzy inside. I can’t help but to feel love and nostalgia, and to think it’s all connected to my child-self. It’s so emotional.
Super Mario 64 will always be my favorite game of all time. It’s a really fun, creative game. Simple and amazing nowadays, while revolutionary in its day.
It's legandary isn't it?

Well, it has been a journey. Charles Martinet is officially retiring as the voice of Mario... bittersweet hearing this music as I find out about these news, but hey, at least his voice will forever be in these legendary games and shall live on forever and ever! Thanks for everything, Nintendo, but specially Charles Martinet for being that iconic voice for such an iconic character. We will always love your work and hope for your life to be long and happy for being this awesome human being that brought life to such iconic characters.
Thanks, Reggie.
Have a great retirement.
He wasn't even president when this game came out.
nobody:

Thank you Martinet, you may have retired, but you still are heard around the world.
Thanks Martinet, For making countless childhoods.
Rest in Piece Iwata.
Don't worry, you're somewhere up there making some new game in another life.
:D
that happened over a year ago and people are STILL putting this on every song in any soundtrack that is or is similar to nintendo
iwata will forever be remembered
He didn't make this game. He managed/oversaw projects and did presentations/promoted the company. The first person you should be crediting is Koji Kondo, the guy who composed all this great music.
every hater who thinks iwata did nothing for nintendo and this industry is truly a cynical piece of trash
This is a perfect song for nostalgia on, not only was it the last song, but it showed you all the locations you visited as mario. Damn good finale for the game right there.
Charles Martinet, your a legend
Hold the torch up high, we celebrate your career
And even though an era comes to an end...
All the hearts your voice has touched, we'll still give a hearty cheer
Charles Martinet will always be remembered. This is not only the end theme to Mario 64 but the one for him aswell. I hope he will be Happy in his retirement
This is a surprisingly poignant song!
cool cool
get paid get laid gatorade am i right bros
literally
Yesterday, I asked you...
John Braddock True! It's happy and bouncy but knowing you just beat one the best games ever, it's over, and it's time to say goodbye is a bit sad. But thankfully you can always play it again later! It'll just never be like the first time you experience it, though...
Imagine this you died and god gives you a playlist of your best moments in life with your family and friends while this plays in the backround
Plus added bloopers featuring cringe memories but it's all made better with the song
I would die again.
But this time. Of sadness.
NOO
i wouldnt know how to thank god if he did that
It’d be beautiful and sad
Once again, a legend has been completed.
This song made me cry back then, and apparently I never got over it because it still makes me cry. And never has a game made me cry this hard before.
The nostalgia is real, i remember collecting all 120 stars and just wishing there were more. Mario 64 was my introduction to video games and will always have a special place in my heart.
Same. Mario 64. Banjo-Kazooie. And Mario Kart Wii were my childhood
But there are more, there are a 150 🙃
i cut my lip in the DS version there is.
Thank you Charles for being the voice of our favorite plumber
Thank you charles, you got me though the darkest of times.
Thank you, Charles Martinet. Thank you for being my childhood hero. You'll be with us every time we play Mario games, old and new.
This song explains life's journey into one little song... It starts happy and cheerful then it gets ominous and dark. Then it comes back to happy. Then dark again. Then it comes back around again! And then you're in a hospital. That's where you remember everything you've done in life. Then you say your final goodbyes, then it's over.
JakeGaming well said
THANKA YOU SO MUCH FOR PLAYING ME GAME
Thanks for a great comment and ruining some persons childhood
@Ken narville it isnt too sensitive, just a bit emotional
@Ken narville just ignore the last part and its just pretty much life in a nutshell, you are a cheerful kid, high school-college is a bit dark beucase its a lot of work, rebellious teenage years, uncertainty about relationships, then it gets better once you graduate, settle down, find a wife and stable job, and it goes back to good tempo for the rest of the journey.
Thanks for our Childhood Charles. Many wishes from your biggest fans for years to come ❤
Thanks for everything Mr. Charles Martinet
Charles Martinet was & will forever be the main voice of Mario, Luigi, Wario, Waluigi
Thank you for the great memories Charles Martinet, hope your new role as the Mario Ambassador goes great
This song gets a lot more depressing as I get older. Back then though, it was truly a celebration of things to come.
Sure games today aren't even a fraction as epic as these games were but we've come a long way with games.
Not even a fraction? Give me a break.
TheJustin4848 Depends on personal taste and I think most games today are shit. Doesn't mean I don't play and love games that are coming out today. They just aren't fulfilling like these older titles.
Give me more games like Dark Souls, NIER, Ni no Kuni, Deus Ex, etc. and then I'll speak differently.
Agreed.tokyobassist
Looking back though can we really be THAT grateful to Nintendo? Nintendo backing out of the SNES CD with Sony created their biggest competition in the market that forced them to change a lot of their company philosophies. That indirectly killed Sega off since the Dreamcast was crushed by the arrival of the Playstation 2. At the same time games got more cinematic because of Sony but now gameplay is something that is sidelined to graphics and theatrics these days.
Cause and effect man. I guess it's not all bad. I love the Wii U and the PS4 shows a ton of promise. Games can still kick ass but I'm tired of the business and political end of gaming ruining the overall experience.
Yeah I'm sitting on a PC, PS4, Wii U, Wii, SNES, N64, PS2 and Gamecube.
As you can see Microsoft systems doesn't really cater to my tastes. The 360 is a haven for one of my favorite genres though (SHMUPS).
I’m here after the Charles news. Thank you so much for all these years of Super Mario! I’m forever grateful for bringing out the most inspiring joyful character in gaming.
You are the Super Star🌟
Bless you Charles, thank you for your amazing voice work, and giving us the most iconic voice in video game history
