You think a middle aged plumber from New York city should sound like Mickey Mouse on helium? Ever since NOJ decided to give him that voice, it's always sounded ridiculous to me. What, are we suppose to believe that traveling through another dimension turned his voice into a demented Mickey Mouse? It makes no fucking sense at all and insults my intelligence.

We're talking about an Italian Plumber who eats mushrooms to double in size and gets powers from a flower that lets him shoot fireballs from his hands so he can travel through a fictional dimension to rescue a princess from a giant turtle with spikes on his shell who breathes fire. NOTHING about it makes sense.  Especially after Odyssey, where he was in a realistic looking city with realistically proportioned humans. Yet, last I checked, Odyssey was universally acclaimed and is fast on track to become one of the best selling Mario games ever.

It was never a problem before, why is it suddenly a problem now?

It wasn't a problem? What does that mean? Are you talking about the collective mindset of millions of people? Because I was only talking about myself. My mind can not grasp the concept that a middle aged, Italian plumber from New York city sounds like a mentally challenged Mickey Mouse on a bad LSD trip. It never made sense to me.
