Gaming fanbase doesn't send death threat challenge (impossible)

edit: on the "ah?" at 0:26, I hear a little more annoyed "what the hell?" tone in there. I'd imagine it'd have been a more inquisitive "hmm?" under martinet, similar to 0:08. I like that he's giving mario a bigger range within the extreme limitations nintendo probably put on him, and aiming for relatively a tiny less whimsy and a tiny more grounded compared to martinet's body of work
