Hey, it's Samantha Kelly. I do the voice
0:02
of Princess Peach. Hi. And Toad. Yeah.
0:06
In some of Nintendo's Mario games, and
0:09
I'm just thrilled today to be answering
0:11
a couple questions. When signing
0:13
autographs for fans of Princess Peach,
0:14
what is the quote that most people ask
0:16
for? It depends on what game you play,
0:19
but if you do Smash Brothers Brawl, one
0:22
of my favorite ones to say is, "Oh,
0:25
man." That one irritates some people.
0:28
Sorry. In July, Nintendo clarified that
0:32
Mario and Peach are just good friends.
0:35
Did you ever get a different indication
0:36
from people or do you have a different
0:40
I think a good friend is a great thing
0:41
to have, so I'm good with it.
0:44
When Keegan Michael Key voiced Toad in
0:47
the Super Mario Brothers movie, some of
0:49
your previously recorded lines were used
0:53
Yay. When did you find out that you made
0:55
the final cut? I didn't. So if they use
0:59
the lines that's okay because Toad
1:02
belongs to everyone, right?
1:04
How did the recasting of your Nintendo
1:07
roles come to you? Was the New Direction
1:09
a mutual decision or one that was come
1:11
to independently? It was a Nintendo
1:13
decision. Um but I'm happy. I actually I
1:17
love Courtney Lynn and so I think they
1:19
did a great job recasting for her and um
1:22
you know I love these characters. For
1:23
me, it's as long as these characters get
1:25
to live on and the fans get to enjoy
1:27
them, I'm good. You played Princess
1:30
Peach and the Toads in Super Mario
1:32
Galaxy, the inspiration for the upcoming
1:34
Super Mario Galaxy movie. What is
1:36
essential for Nintendo and Illumination
1:38
to carry over from the game to the film?
1:40
Okay. Beautiful video game, like one of
1:43
the most beautiful ones. And to me, if
1:46
they can carry that otherness, you know,
1:48
like where you're in the movie and you
1:50
feel like you're just in a whole another
1:51
world and that soundtrack, right, this
1:54
amazing soundtrack. So, if they can
1:56
capture the the lushness of the
1:59
soundtrack and I think the beauty of
2:00
that world, we're so in for that. At
2:03
conventions, fans bring you a lot of
2:04
games to sign. Which ones seem to be the
2:07
most popular among fans? Um, a lot of
2:10
people like me to sign their games. So,
2:12
you know, open it up and sign the little
2:13
sheet there. Um, sometimes I'll sign
2:16
amiios like these guys. I've signed
2:19
crowns before. Okay. The the most
2:23
surprising thing that I've ever signed
2:24
was a baby. Sorry. No, it was the mom
2:28
and dad asked us to. Kenny and I both
2:30
signed it and it was the uh the onesie.
2:32
So, that child is probably now 12 years
2:35
old and that onesie is signed by the
2:37
Mario cast. Thank you for letting me do
2:39
this. So much love, hearts and
