Out of all the Smash games, who is your favorite background announcer? Mine has got to be Melee. The announcer is so confident and I can barely understand a few things he says which makes me laugh.

I'd say Melee. His voice is so dramatic and metallic. He just has the coolest voice ever. But I wish he actually knew how to pronounce everything correctly. He also pronounces "Melee" in a weird way such that you can't tell how he's pronouncing it. This led to many different pronunciations of the game's name over the years.

I also like the Brawl announcer just because he's fun to imitate.

Smash 4's Announcer. Xander Mobus is a cool guy and the geekiest of the Four.

I agree. The way he also say "Samus" sounds like "saums" really quickly.

Melee's by far. The reason is simple: ROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOY!

64 - perfect
Melee - pronounces things weird
Brawl - sounds like St. Nicholas and the inflection is too perfect
Smash 4 - too baritone

I wish Shao Kahn could be the announcer. Someone hack that in.

Everybody go turn your Melee on right now, listen to the announcer say all the characters EXCEPT Ganondorf. Then listen to Ganondorf. I wonder if he voiced saying his name when he was sad because his enthusiasm is about 1/4th of every other character.

Also, Ganon's cheer from the in-game crowd is downright depressing. It sounds like all of Hyrule if Link failed his quest; brainwashed and partly undead.

I feel that Melee's announer was superior, but only because of the horrible quality his voice was recorded with.

Seriously, it sounds like he's speaking into a toilet bowl. It's awesome.

(Also, the "Super! Smash! Brothers! Meleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!" he says at the title is one of my fondest childhood memories.)
