Multi-language voice acting confirmed

[Storm Eagle]

For you Europeans out there: I checked with a German Let's Player today, and appereantly, almost every English speaking character in the game will have a German voice actor. Sonic and Robin, for example. This is probably true for the other languages as well.

 

[SSBIx3M]

Are you sure Robin has a German voice?
As far as I know, Awakening was only voiced in English and Japanese.

But I really like to hear it. Can you give me a link? I don't know what to look for.

 

[Reila]

Oh man, I hope you are right. I would kill for an option to switch between English and Japanese voices.

 

[Walfan]

Please no, the french voice actors are terrible and they already brought back the atrocious announcer from Brawl.
If that's true I'll set my system to english for sure.

 

[Raijinken]

Hopefully this works the other way around, so I can fix all of the bad-to-average English back to its average-to-great Japanese equivalents.

japanese is unlikely. in the japanese game we don't have the option for english. the dispersement of multilanguage voice acting is probably mirroring the way the regions are split up.

Most Japanese games don't have English voicing, especially if they're developed "before" the English version starts being localized. Whereas games like Xenoblade and Fire Emblem Awakening normally just leave the Japanese and make it swappable, while defaulting to English otherwise. Hopefully Smash4 follows their lead, Fox needs to stop pinching his nose in the English version.
