They should just hire Jim Cummings who voiced him in the old cartoon.

It's mostly because Eggman is a dumb name while Robotnik is a cooler name.

So leave it at Eggman and Japan, and leave it at whatever American audiences were introduced to.

Why am I the only one who thinks it's really stupid to introduce a character to an audience as one name and then fucking change what the audience sees their name as later? It's really, really, fucking dumb. Beyond dumb.


Let me guess, you prefer Princess Toadstool over Princess Peach?

I do. That's what I called her for years. That's what millions of people did. And that's why millions of people don't call her Princess Peach. Nintendo fucked up.

I demand a source for that.

In a better time line Danny would be too busy doing the voice work for that live action detective pikachu movie.

So, Ron Jeremy then.

I think it's fair to assume that anyone who pops in Mario 3 will call her Princess Toadstool, because that's her name in that game.

Also, I'm pretty sure I read in some places that Toadstool and Peach are different people. And in another place I read that Peach is just Princess Toadstool's nickname.


She was always Peach in Japan, in America she was just "Toadstool"

Then they brought "Peach" in Super Mario 64. And since they, they have said her full name is Peach Toadstool.

Literally all Mario media in the US just referred to her as Princess Toadstool until 1996 I think. There might have been a reference before Super Mario 64 proper in the west, but I'm pretty sure that was the first reference in a mainline game.

The reason more people call her peach than toadstool is because more people started playing Mario after Super Mario 64.

Also probably the vast majority of people who played Mario in the 80's grew up and stopped giving a shit about this stuff.

(the same exact thing happend with the names Koopa and Bowser, btw. Except Bowser name made its west debut in Super Mario World I believe. Unless it was changed, his full name is now "Bowser Koopa")

1. Those names were never actually used in the game itself, just the bad translation/made up story of the manual.

2. Hardly anyone gave a shit about Metal Gear in the west until MGS came out.

Because they were used to calling her Toadstool for 10 years before Peace became a thing?

How is this hard to figure out?
