Martinet was told by his friend that there was going to be an audition at a trade show in which you "talk to people as a plumber". This digital puppetry, with Martinet's comic performance, was a novelty at the time.

This system was called "Mario in Real-Time" or "MIRT".

CHARLES MARTINET DEATH MOVIE
Movie premieres in theaters on April 5.Working for Nintendo since 1994, Martinet started voicing Mario at video game trade shows in which attendees would walk up to a TV screen displaying a 3-D Mario head that moved around the screen and talked. What really seals the deal for Mario and Luigi’s dad is a line Martinet delivers near the end of the movie, when he excitedly refers to the duo “my boys.” It’s a piece of dialogue that lands, especially when you know Martinet is behind it as the voice who brought Mario and Luigi to life.

Martinet’s involvement in the The Super Mario Bros. But Martinet - who is also the video game voice of Luigi, Wario, and Waluigi - does make an appearance in The Super Mario Bros.
