#mario golf commercial
Note
Regarding this post, I'm not sure if someone had told you already, but Mario has actually spoken Spanish before! I could be wrong, but I believe that's actually Charles Martinet's native language :)
There's a Mario Golf commercial in Spanish that has Martinet speaking in the language. So canonically, Mario would be able to speak to you and understand you in Spanish!
Oh my, I didn't know!!! 😭😭😭 Actually, I kinda remember hearing that Charles Martinet did live in my country? But you know, since I'm totally used to hearing him speaking English and Italian, that information kinda... left my brain? 😅
I just checked and he moved to Barcelona when he was 12 and spent a few years there with his family, so you're right! He can totally speak my language, OMG this makes me so happy!!! 😭😭😭
And the commercial has truly made me cry. I had never seen it and hearing him speaking my language is just. Too much 😭😭😭
youtube
It's very simple, but also funny and endearing!!! 🥺🥺🥺 I'll provide a quick translation below!
"¡Bueno, ahora me toca a mí!" = "Well, now it's my turn!"
"¡Ay! ¡Se cayó mi Game Boy!" = "Ouch! My Game Boy fell!" (this honestly has me crying out of pure emotion OMG he sounds so damn CUTE!!! 😭😭😭)
After "Va bene!" (Italian for "All right!"), he says, "¡Ahora sí!" = "Now it's time!"
And after "Mamma mia!", he says, "¡Qué mano derecha!" = "What a right hand!"
I swear my heart is filled with sheer joy and emotion right now 😭😭😭 After all these years, I never thought I'd hear Mario actually speaking Spanish, but still... here we are! 🥺 I truly couldn't be happier right now, that was so adorable and fun and endearing!!! 😭😭😭
Thank you soooo much for sharing this with me, @akiiame-blog!!! You were so kind and sweet, reaching out to tell me about this!!! 🥺🥺🥺 From the bottom of my heart: thank you 🫂 You've truly made my day 💖✨

Bob Hope Estate With His Own Mini-Golf Course!
Bob Hope was not only the penultimate entertainer, he was also a passionate golfer. He loved golf so much that in one of his famous quotes he said, “Golf is my real profession. Entertainment is just a sideline. I tell jokes to pay my greens fees.” What was Hope’s full-time home in Toluca Lake has a one-hole golf course, designed by Hope himself, with two tee positions. That home has currently hit the market at $29 million.
Born in London in 1903 with a big name, Leslie Townes Hope, he emigrated to the U.S. with his parents at age four. His distinctive appearance with the well-recognized ski-jump nose came from reconstructive surgery after his face was crushed by a falling tree while helping his brother cut trees.
By age 20, he was on his career path starting in radio with his one-liners and quick, mostly self-deprecating jokes and it wasn’t long before he was on his way to Hollywood. Hope was the whole package that Hollywood demanded back in the day. Stars were expected, and were trained, to sing, dance and act by the studios. Hope arrived in Hollywood with something extra that set him apart: a rare timing ability for delivering comedy.
With increasing fame and the increasing wealth that followed, Hope was able to choose any home that met his fancy, from his UFO vacation house in Palm Springs to his permanent house with a mini-golf course in LA’s Toluca Lake neighborhood. Hope and wife, Dolores, built the house in 1939 as an English Traditional, which they made more contemporary in 1950.
Nestled on a beautifully landscaped five acres of mature evergreens, rose gardens, and the one-hole golf course with sand trap and driving greens, the 14,848-square-foot home includes eight bedrooms, eight baths, indoor pool and spa, billiard room, bar and chef’s kitchen. There is also a guest house, staff quarters, staff offices and large outdoor pool.
The private primary suite wing has two bedrooms, his-and-her baths and dressing rooms and a shared study. There is a home theater and a gym with a steam and infrared sauna, a four-car garage, motor court, extensive security system, security office, and three electric gate entrances.
An ancillary structure contains a tennis pavilion, commercial kitchen, security office, conference room and a walk-in fireproof safe. Over the years the home has played host to presidents and a large number of celebrities.
Bob Hope died in 2003. His longtime home in Toluca Lake is for sale at $29 million. Kevin Dees of The Agency in Beverly Hills holds the listing.

Are you the vibrating dildo in ass human??????????
Wario World[a] is a 3D platform game developed by Treasure and published by Nintendo for the GameCube. The game's plot centers on Wario and his quest to regain his treasure and his castle from Black Jewel, an evil gem.
The game was fairly well received by reviewers, who praised the game's fun gameplay while criticizing its short length. The game has sold over 142,000 copies in Japan and over 256,000 copies in the United States.[3] In 2004, the game was re-released as a Player's Choice title.[4]
Wario World's gameplay centers mainly on combating enemies, although it requires some platform navigation similar to Super Mario 64 and Super Mario Sunshine. The controls are simple, and are only used to jump, run, dash, perform fighting moves, and use the "Hyper Suction" ability to collect nearby coins.[5] The level designs are platform-based with combat elements, and have an overall linear design. The levels contain trapdoors, which lead to special platforming or puzzle-oriented challenges.[6] Throughout the game, small forest sprites known as "Spritelings" give Wario advice if they are rescued from imprisonment.[7]
During combat, Wario can grab enemies and either spin them around, throw them, or piledrive them into the ground.[8] Enemies drop coins when defeated, and tend to regenerate if the area is left and returned to later. The coins are used to purchase items, such as life-restoring garlic, and to return to life.[9] If Wario does not have enough money to return to life, the game is over.[10] A new feature in Wario World are the spherical "glue globes", in which Wario is stuck to if he touches it, allowing the player to reach otherwise inaccessible areas.[11] Along the way, Wario can re-collect his lost treasures, which are hidden in treasure chests, and collect pieces of golden Wario statues, which increases Wario's life meter by one half.[12] In order to advance in the game, the player must collect a certain amount of red diamonds in each level.[13] If the player collects all the treasure in the various levels, minigames from the Game Boy Advance title WarioWare, Inc.: Mega Microgames! are unlocked, and they can be played by using the Nintendo GameCube – Game Boy Advance link cable.[14]
The game begins with Wario enjoying his newly built castle, which is filled with treasures that he has collected from earlier adventures.[15] An evil gem called Black Jewel, hidden amongst Wario's treasure collection, suddenly awakens and takes over Wario's castle. Black Jewel turns Wario's treasure into monsters,[16] and transforms the castle into four worlds called Excitement Central, Spooktastic World, Thrillsville and Sparkle Land, each consisting of two levels and a boss fight. A central area allows access to the different worlds, as well as to the Treasure Square, where the Huge Treasure Box inside of which Black Jewel is hiding can be found.[17] Wario proceeds through the areas controlled by Black Jewel, recovering his treasure and rescuing Spritelings (the creatures had sealed Black Jewel away in the past), then obtains the key to the Huge Treasure Box and engages Black Jewel in a battle. Wario's subsequent victory allows him to regain control of his castle.
During the game's ending, Wario's new castle quality depends on the number of Spritelings rescued. The worst-case scenario sees Wario with nothing but a campsite with his throne in a dark jungle, but if all 40 Spritelings were rescued, Wario is given a palace even grander than his previous one.[18]
Wario World was shown at E3 2002 as a technical demo.[19] At the next E3 in 2003, it was shown with levels of gameplay polish and tweaking, which the previous E3 demo was lacking.[20] On August 22, 2002, at Nintendo's Gamer's Summit, Wario World's North American release date was set to November 11, 2002.[21] The game was later going to be released on May 26, 2003, but was further delayed by one month till June 23.[22]
It was uncertain who was developing Wario World, until April 22, 2003, when Nintendo of America revealed that Treasure was developing the game.[23] After the successful development collaboration Treasure and Nintendo shared with the Nintendo 64title, Sin and Punishment, the two companies wanted to work together again. The R&D1 team wanted to continue their co-development juncture with a 3D installment of the Wario franchise.[24]Wario World's music was composed by Norio Hanzawa and Minako Hamano.[25] Wario was voiced by Charles Martinet, who also voices Mario and Luigi in the Mario series.[25]
Wario World was a commercial success, selling over 142,000 copies in Japan.[3] In 2004, the game was re-released alongside Mario Golf: Toadstool Tour and F-Zero GX as part of the Player's Choice line, a selection of games with high sales sold for a reduced price.[4]
Wario World received fairly positive reviews. The US version of Play magazine gave the game a perfect score, and the reviewer commented that Wario World "pays off every second [he is] holding the controller, and that, to [him], is greatness".[32]Nintendo Power said that the game was "tons of fun".[33]GamePro stated that Wario World "stays addictive by weight of sheer design innovation".[34] The American-based publication Game Informer praised the game for including "droves of awesome boss battles".[35]Matt Casamassina of IGN declared that Wario World had "some great control mechanics and inventive level work".[29]Electronic Gaming Monthly's Greg Ford said, "Wario [World] delivers a great time while it lasts and is well worth checking out. Just don't expect a Mario-quality adventure".[36] Worthplaying gave the game 9 out 10, stating that "Treasure has done itself proud with this title, and Wario himself can lift his head up high. At least in my book, he's got at least one game that's better than Mario's."[37]
Wario World received criticism for its length, with some reviewers stating that the game was shorter than the average console title. Tom Bramwell of Eurogamer compared Wario World to Luigi's Mansion, a game also criticized for its length, and said that the game was like Luigi's Mansion "all over again".[38]GameSpy stated that Wario World "offers little above and beyond the standard 3D platform romp, and what is offered turns out to be very short and repetitive".[28]GameSpot commented that "the final product is too short and simplistic to hold your attention for more than a day".[27]
