Title: Toad
Post by: Tv_Themes on December 29, 2008, 09:59:40 PM
He sounds like Jay Leno's mentally deficient cousin in SMB:SS.

"Nyaaah! Nyaaaah! Nyaaaah!"

I mean they really couldn't get a different voice for this guy? It makes him much more annoying than he was in the game.

Yeah! I remember when Toad had a cute voice. Noe he sounds like he has strep throat, or laryngitis (if i spelled it right, and if you know what it is)

If you've had Toad cast on you, all you can cast is Toad, provided you know that spell.

Three of my Final Fantasy II party are Toads. I make them cast it on each other. I'm so evil. I've found that you'll get a game over when your whole party is made of Toads. That's stupid. They're not dead, they can still run away and seek help/use Maidens' Kisses.

That's only in Final Fantasy II. None of the other ones I've played ended the game when everyone get toaded. Of course when discussing spells which turn one in to an amphibian, I'm really quite partial to Chrono Trigger. Frog is just so darned cool.

I called him Amph.

Forgive my brain fart, but what's that short for? (I'm guess Mario Super Sluggers)

Super Mario Brothers: Super Show. You know, that show that makes Luigi sound like George Carlin? That show that always calls the villain Koopa? Call him anything related to Bowser, I'm used to calling him Bowser!

Oh, you're talking about a TV show? I've never seen that which you speak of.

Oh, the Super Mario Bros. Super Show. I didn't know what you meant. His voice is fine.

Well said, Nostalgia Critic (http://thatguywiththeglasses.com/videolinks/thatguywiththeglasses/nostalgia-critic/3061-super-mario-brothers-super-show).

Hahahaha, both of Tv_Themes's posts here are directly plagarized from that video.

Ok, seriously now, I think his voice in the SMBSS was fine. I wish they could hire that person to do Toad's voice in the games, but I'm not unhappy with Toad's voice in the games (except for Mario Party 4. It was kind of creepy then..)

Besides, if they changed Toad's voice actor, it wouldn't be the same person who voices Peppy Hare, thus rendering Barrel Roll quotes with Toad's voice useless (not that there are that many anyway)..

I never saw that show, but I have played StarFox 64. So, do a barrel roll comes to mind.

His game voice and his SMBSS voice aren't really different. But the SMBSS one is probably better.

*listens to Toad's SMBSS voice* Ow, brain hurting... I've heard a few gravelly voices before, and sometimes they can make that work (like Chris from Family Guy, or Fergy from Viva Pinata), but here Toad just sounds annoying with it. Reminds me of Know-It-All from "The Polar Express" (his voice matches his name), though I can't decide which voice is worse.

Toad's not as annoying in the games, but maybe that's because I don't hear him speak English as often. I never thought I'd say I longed for his Mario Kart 64 voice, but yeah. Let alone I always appreciated the Mario Kart 64 voice for his scream.

Funniest part of that SMBSS review is probably the Indiana Jones guy with no face. I was definitely not expecting that. Or "why was the snake shooting bullets?" Or Ganon teleporting everywhere for no reason.

Snake shooting and Ganon teleporting are just trying to be accurate to what they do in the games.

Indiana Joe's face, however, is sheer hilarity.

Yeah, also, I find it weird how sometimes Yoshi says "WOAAAAAAAAAH!!!!" in a completely different voice. (See MKSC if you don't know what I'm talking about).

Whoa, somebody tell that Nostalgia Critic that screaming at the top of your lungs, making stupid faces, and shouting immature second-grade vocabulary is NOT funny.

That might be why he doesn't do that stuff as often as he makes snarky remarks about the quality of whatever he's reviewing at the time.

I've heard that. Perhaps a different voice actor?
