This is what mispronouncing every Smash Bros name sounds like.

I am choking because of these pronouncements

HOW COULD YOU NOT SAY "MooTwo". Trust me, that would have been better.... I'm kind of an expert.

[@CarelessFoolFallsFlat]

Seamus Aran is a name so Irish that when I typed it out, a pint of Guinness materialized in my hand. It took me a while to scrub my desk clean.

[@Vandreand]

As a native smash bros speaker I can confirm that this are all correct.

[@abocwsg2328]

Yes, it is all correct

[@spidersquid8]

Sora's name pronounced as Birdo confirmed

[@fabiomora6491]

I need smash language classes. My friend be like: use his fair. I'm like: this character doesn't have any moves about a fair. No but seriously, this really happened.

"Loogui", actually. I am also a proud proponent of Guifs

[@punkco990]

You probably had plenty of fun intentionally pronouncing these characters names correctly, I will now pronounce hero correctly from this point on.

[@BackseatYT]

It's very cathartic

[@elimooorhouse4824]

I gotta say you (or your whole production studio, idk) really know how to make a video entertaining for the long haul. For example, just having those quick little pauses between the characters for each version of the game, followed by a music change, and saying "now we're getting into gamecube territory" does WONDERS for holding my attention during a 9 minute span. It's like you're giving me an entirely new chapter with a different premise even though it's the same concept and formula. It's the little things that make all the difference, very nice work.

[@MedAnimations]

i basically couldn't agree more, the writing is soo catchy too auuugh

[@DreadeDragon]

No matter how many times he replaces a hard C with an S sound, I will always be caught off guard.

[@NinjaPickle]

As a Nintendo Entertainment System System main, I'm so happy that this video finally got the truth out there, so people can stop pronouncing my main like the Loch Ness Monster

[@Luminous-722]

People pronounce Nintendo entertainment system systems name like the locke nies manster?

[@TheDeadmanTT]

it's actually pronounced Mario not Mario

[@cow11star81]

WHAT?

[@abuzzbonehead9306]

I've always called him Mario

[@novenathefox3]

I thought his name was Mario?

[@Baby_999]

His name is mario mario not mario or mario

[@undynlicia7554]

You’re all wrong, everyone knows it’s Mario

[@83Protons]

several times throughout the video I was thinking "there's no way he could possibly mispronounce that" just to be repeatedly proven wrong

[@lucariorules1077]

I can’t even be mad at Lukina since that’s actually accurate in Japanese

[@mesacboy7939]

[@Bubbabyte99]

I'm so happy that he pronounced Luigi as Loogi. I've quite often pronounced his name that way as a joke for YEARS, so I'm glad to see it get some recognition!

[@beasoup7708]

There's someone out there who believed every word of this...

[@imappropriate2428]

I actually believed the Mario one

[@phantom-K]

I watched on mute with the closed captioning and I believed every word

Imagine believing birdo is in smash

[@honkinggoose172]

Why do Yoshai and Kirbai sound like something from Persona And Bosa And Daesi And Drame Rayo

[@valzone]

Thanks! I always thought Robin followed R.0.B's pattern, now I know R-0-Bin was just my own little mess.

[@OpossumPartyy]

I would've taken Birdo as an echo fighter for yoshi over sora in a heartbeat

[@ADudeNamedLucky]

If you don’t pronounce all of these this way from now on, I’m going to be disappointed.

[@falpsdsqglthnsac]

ok but that's actually how they pronounce lucina in the japanese version

[@xXJ4FARGAMERXx]

Mario (in japanese) is also MA-RI-O with all syllables of equal length Not MAAA-ri-Ou

[@ZalYagunRyai]

i mean. the japanese way is definitely how not to say foriegn names or words

[@ナイトウィング]

yeah and so is simon

[@Poké-SealTM]

1:30 That is how my dad and my grandma pronounces Luigi

[@mute_cebu_]

The J of "Gijjlypuff" was the twist that really hit me first 😂

"Nintendo Entertainment System System" fucking got me

[@Heath_Rubbadubdub]

Man… Birdo looks a little different from the final product we are getting.

[@panakinskywalker6391]

the convinced way you pronounce them makes it so much funnier. idk why but i've especially been dying of laughter at "seamus"

[@doctordingo1670]

This entire video is just what it's like to try and decipher the pronunciation of Lucina's sword, the Falchion.

[@G00lden]

The kind of educational video we need on this hard times

[@amsgamingandmusic]

On concept, I didn't think this video would keep for all 9 1/2 minutes, but gawhdDAYUM you made it work haha

[@chessplayer6632]

Does this remind anyone else of that video about if English was phonetically consistent?

[@saltyunion278]

I'd be nervous if I were the current smash announcer, this man is coming for your job...

[@chessplayer6632]

Wow, I can proudly say I’ve been pronouncing these all right! No wonder people are always staring at me when I say their names, people must just be impressed

[@mute_cebu_]

Okay, "dihDEEday" was the unexpected but correct joke to make there. You got me. 😂

[@dowottboy5889]

Can't believe you left out my favorite, Sorry from Kyngdum Hertz

[@Alpha-oe7zn]

This dude tried to predict the fighter's pass, got it perfect for the first 3 characters, then went into a mental breakdown (thanks largely in part to the xenoblade waifi), and now is doing this. It breaks me up everytime i think about it

[@yanna9293]

I’m too high for this I thought you were actually telling us how to pronounce their names And with every name I was shocked a bit more until I finally realised

[@MedAnimations]

lmao same we misread the title lol 💀

[@gebis8515]

3:05 Lucina's name is actually pronounced very similarly to this in the Japanese version. The two other characters who have the exact same name but different pronunciation in Japanese are Lucas (Luchas, like in French) and King K. Rool (King Cruel, which was actually the original pronunciation intended by Rare)

[@katieg1071]

This is genuinely painful to watch. I could not make it past even one minute. It's excellent, keep up the good work.

[@MarvyMarv731]

Bro I can't make it past Mario without doing research. I guess this is meant to be funny. But I just can't watch this to the end.

[@Tronmo]

Thanks, I love it! This is exactly my humor.

[@lucalopez9604]

*sweating* that's exactly how I pronounce Bowser.

[@EGRJ]

I think my favorite part it the laughter creeping into your voice as the video goes on.

[@YJCH0I]

I now want the in-game Smash Announcer voice clips to be replaced with all of these correct pronunciations!

[@JohnnyHikesSW]

You have unlocked a memory of my younger cousin trying to gaslight me into pronouncing Luigi as "Loo-gee"

[@scarffoxandfriends9401]

In all seriousness, I don't understand how some people claim to have hundreds hours in Smash and then mispronounce the names of playable characters in the game. Rosalina especially urks me because it's an actual name, so trying to play the "it doesn't matter" card on her name feels like they are dissing everyone named Rosa/Rosalina.

[@christianxarrieta]

i watched all the way through just to show respect to the fact that you made this. incredible content.

[@undynlicia7554]

I won’t lie, I expected a Sans is Ness joke from the latter

You missed the opportunity to call Ness Sans.
