I seem to remember a similar sound being used for cancelling something/answering no to something in Mario Party 2. Or at least it sounded similar to me. So my mind connected that to the otherworldly source of faceless text that offers you those Yes/No dialogues. Which may as well also be the voice that narrates when there's no narrator character, describes items and gives tutorials.

That reminds me of another theory:

The narrator from Mario Parties 1-5 is the Talking Parrot.
You know, the one from the Option House? He also appears in Mario Party 3.

The one that goes "Start!" "Feeneesh!" "New Rec-OARD"? That voice was distinctly female, I thought

Competing theory:

The narrator from Mario Parties 1-5 is Pac-Man
To pay back this favor, Mario later narrated Pac-Man Vs.

But that voice sounds nothing like any of the voices Pac-Man has ever had over the years. :P

Huh. I guess SM64's Star Select is BAHs..

I wish I had something more to add to this topic right now..
Kinopio is the ultimate video game character! Who else can drive a kart, host parties, play tennis, give good advice and items, and is almost always happy??

Toads are robots

The mushroom head is actually a casket containing large, complex computers that simulate a sentient creature's decision-making and thought processes very, very convincingly. They are also equipped with teleporters that enable them to reach worlds and galaxies before Mario does. Because Toad is a robot, in SMB2, he can out-power even the Mario Bros. and lift heavy vegetables very quickly, but his heavy metallic body doesn't let him jump as high. In NSMBW Blue and Yellow Toadbots' jumps are augmented by tiny rocket packs. They have retractable parts to simulate the way Mario shrinks when he gets hurt.

When a character jumps games, they appear as a cameo in the game they've jumped into

I realise this can't be further researched until Wreck-It Ralph comes to theatres (and therefore, possible related games are also released), but Ralph jumps between games in the movie. If he appears in the player's line of sight, I wonder if the player would think "Whoa! Ralph cameo!"

Does that mean game jumping has to be officially sanctioned by a given game company for it to be safe?

So that's what Culex was doing.

Yes Chef. I believe something like that is a good answer.

I didn't think Culex was from any form of Final Fantasy, just styled after common elements from the series.

The Final Fantasy IV boss music jumped games, though.

Wasn't the castle town music in SMRPG from an FF game as well?
