I noticed this and took a look. Some of them are right but not entirely. I say we all now boycott AOL.

The hell...? Number #1 didn't make any sense at all, I thought they reused Mario's voice from SM64 for most of the game.

5. Everyone exploits mascots. Nintendo manages to do it well most of the time, so this isn't a good reason.

4. Yes, the Princess kidnapping story is getting old.

3. Bee Costume...That isn't a valid reason at all...

2. Although I don't think it ruined Mario, Luigi does need more prominent roles in games.

1. The problem isn't that they gave him a voice, it's that they never give him enough of a voice. Mario games would be a lot more engaging if the characters actually talked. We've seen Nintendo can do good voice work with MP3, so now they have no excuse.

=/ AOL annoys me.

Maybe its the Mario fan in me speaking, but they really don't know what they are talking about.

edit: 4 makes a little sense, but if you were not rescuing the princess, guess who would be the first to bitch an moan.

I only agree with #2, but that doesn't ruin Mario at all. Luigi needs more games, but that doesn't mean telling Mario to *crag* off.

Most of these have no logic.

AOL says that...

(Brawl spoilers)

Triple Finish is better than Giga Bowser and LANDMASTER.

Therefore, they already suck at these kind of thing.

You know, his voice is getting higher and higher, its very annoying.

He no longer sounds like an actual person, he sounds like a kid...perhaps that is the intention?

Yeah, these don't make any sense at all... Just goes to show that the Mario-Haters aren't so smart after all.

They're obviously no worse than Paul, from Pokémon Diamond & Pearl, who only wanted a STRONG Fire Type, like Magmar, and dumped his Chimchar, so that Ash can train him like he trained Damien's Former Charmander!

I agree with #1. Mario's voice really annoys me. Waaay too high-pitched.
