La actriz de voz Samantha Kelly se enteró de que su papel de 18 años como la Princesa Peach y Toad en los juegos de Super Mario terminó el día del lanzamiento de Nintendo Switch 2, cuando Mario Kart World salió sin su voz.
Aunque no es ampliamente conocida, Kelly ha prestado su voz a Peach y Toad en más de 70 títulos de Nintendo para DS, 3DS, Wii, Wii U y Switch, comenzando con Mario Strikers Charged en 2007.
Desde Super Mario Bros. hasta Luigi’s Mansion, pasando por Mario Kart y Super Smash Bros., Kelly dio vida a dos icónicos personajes del Reino Champiñón, destacando en juegos como Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker y el reciente Princess Peach: Showtime! del año pasado.
El trabajo de voz de Kelly no se limitó a los juegos de Nintendo, apareciendo también en títulos como la serie Mario + Rabbids de Ubisoft y Mario & Sonic en los Juegos Olímpicos de Sega, desarrollados para plataformas de Nintendo.
Sus talentos también trascendieron los videojuegos, dando voz a Peach y Toad en los juguetes interactivos Lego Super Mario, los parques temáticos Super Nintendo World y diversos papeles de Toad en la taquillera película Super Mario Bros. Movie.
Sin embargo, el nombre de Kelly está ausente en los créditos de Mario Kart World. Tras el aviso de los fans, ella confirmó su salida de los papeles.
"Gracias por años de apoyo y felicidad", compartió Kelly en Instagram. "Me rompe el corazón que haya terminado; me hubiera encantado poner voz a Peach y Toad para siempre. Nintendo me informó ayer que han reemplazado estos roles."
"Estoy agradecida por la oportunidad de interpretar a estos personajes durante tanto tiempo. Peach y Toad son personajes vibrantes y perdurables, y espero que prosperen sin importar quién les dé voz. Todo mi amor."
Nintendo controla rigurosamente la información previa al lanzamiento, a menudo ocultando los créditos y detalles de desarrollo hasta el estreno, como se vio con el próximo Donkey Kong Bananza, ya presentado en eventos de Switch 2.
El caso de Kelly parece una extensión extrema de esta política, ya que no supo de su reemplazo hasta el lanzamiento de Mario Kart World.
Todavía se desconoce quién da voz ahora a Peach y Toad en Mario Kart World y futuros títulos de Mario.
Los fans más observadores también notaron la ausencia de Takashi Nagasako, la voz de Donkey Kong durante 21 años desde Mario Power Tennis en 2004, en los créditos de Mario Kart World. En su lugar aparece Koji Takeda, quien interpretó a Donkey Kong en la versión japonesa de Super Mario Bros. Movie, lo que sugiere que Nintendo alineó la voz del juego con la película.
IGN ha contactado a Nintendo para obtener comentarios.
Este no es el primer reemplazo reciente de actores de voz por parte de Nintendo. En 2022, Charles Martinet, la amada voz de Mario, Luigi, Wario y Waluigi, fue retirado después de casi 30 años. Nintendo lo nombró "Embajador de Mario", aunque luego admitió no estar seguro del significado de este título.

Hellish Attractions: Lust Lagoon (a tropical pool with fiery water and seductive specters), Gluttony Galleon (a cursed pirate ship that eats guests), and Soul Circus (where demons perform death-defying stunts).

Easter Eggs: Hidden areas include a secret "Kindness Kingdom" (a failed redemption zone), and a cursed mirror that shows your true soul. 😈 Why It’s a Hit: Critics praise Soul Park for its bold satire, stylish art direction, and tongue-in-cheek commentary on capitalism, consumerism, and the soul’s journey.

In a surprising reveal, Capcom has recently shared details about an early, abandoned open-world, online Resident Evil project that was explored before being scrapped. Though the company officially confirmed the idea in a recent interview with Game Informer, details remain limited, offering fans a tantalizing glimpse into a "what if" version of the iconic survival horror franchise. The concept reportedly emerged during the development of Resident Evil 7: Biohazard (2017) and was inspired by the growing popularity of online multiplayer and open-world games like The Last of Us Part II, Horizon Zero Dawn, and Red Dead Redemption 2. Capcom’s team envisioned a radically different Resident Evil experience—one where players could roam a vast, interconnected version of the fictional Arklay Mountains, exploring abandoned towns, researching viral outbreaks, and even teaming up with other players in co-op survival missions. The project reportedly included elements such as: Persistent open-world environment with dynamic weather, day/night cycles, and evolving zombie hordes. Online multiplayer modes featuring cooperative survival, competitive "survivor vs. infected" modes, and player-driven bases. Deep character progression, including skill trees, crafting systems, and weapon customization. A living, reactive world shaped by player actions, with factions, rumors, and side quests. Despite the ambitious vision, Capcom ultimately decided to scrap the project due to concerns about deviating too far from the core identity of Resident Evil—its emphasis on psychological horror, tight pacing, and narrative-driven tension. The studio felt that a large-scale open-world format might dilute the franchise’s signature atmosphere and player vulnerability. In a statement, Capcom said, “We explored a lot of creative directions, including an online, open-world Resident Evil experience. While it was an exciting challenge, we ultimately concluded that staying true to the series’ roots was paramount. The fear, tension, and intimate storytelling are what make Resident Evil unique—and that’s what we’re committed to preserving.” Fans have reacted with a mix of nostalgia and intrigue, with many lamenting the loss of a bold new direction for the franchise. Some speculate that elements of the scrapped project might still inspire future entries—perhaps in a more subtle way, like in the open-ended exploration of Resident Evil Village’s Hidden Village DLC or hints of multiplayer experimentation in Resident Evil 9 (rumored for 2026). While the open-world Resident Evil remains a canceled dream, its existence adds depth to the franchise’s evolution and reminds players that even the most iconic series are shaped by difficult creative choices. For now, fans will have to settle for the return of the classic survival horror formula—minus the open-world, but still packed with dread.
