A Smashing Gift for NeoGAF

Yes, please get him to do "Karissa the Destroyer". If we could then somehow get the voice clip to her, it would be amazing.

Thirded. This would be ace.

Update: it should be mentioned now it was revealed the event was staged, for those seeing this at the top of the page, so not the best idea to continue support for this sadly.
 
The Karissa the destroyer one would be a pretty cute thing to do if we could get that voice clip to her.

Imagine being 10 years old, being a fan of a game and having the real announcer of that same game say your name.

It really looks like Smash was a big break for Xander, honestly. I mean, the other announcers had careers in voice acting before and after Smash, but Xander's relatively new to the industry; it looks like he's only been in one or two games before Smash 4. He's really going out of his way to make a name for himself thanks to Smash (I only knew Brawl's announcer as the Bill Nye guy, and I had to look up Harrington and Manning's names to confirm they've done work outside of Smash, for comparison), as well as to endear himself to the community, and of course, we all really appreciate it. Line #3 was amazing!

I also appreciate him not getting in hot water with Nintendo by saying anything too lewd or saying anything close to the name of another Nintendo character. As amusing as a clip like "Riddle me this" would be, I don't want to finally get that hypothetical Ridley DLC, only to hear some other VA saying his name! However, even though I don't want to be a bother and make any requests myself, I will admit that I'd totally be in favor of a "Karissa the Destroyer" clip.

Oh god. Line 3 is the best thing since sliced bread.

Would be amazing if he said "The Wizard came from the Moon" or “It was my destiny to be here; in the box.”
 
Fucking amazing. Laughed at all of these. Great stuff.

Lost my shit at behuhuh the rub hive. Just thinking about it sets me off in a giggle fit lol

Him saying lines from characters in the game would be the best thing ever.

Stuff from Captain Falcon, Shulk, ect.
 
The guy seems like a great sport.

He's not the same voice actor as in the previous games is he though? The voice seems a bit off to me. I'm sure I'll grow to love his version with time though. Seems a bit more lighthearded/goofy.

This is so wonderful that it singlehandedly justifies the entire internet. If the internet existed only for us to hear the Smash Bros announcer say "Please understand", it would have been a worthy invention.

CAN WE REQUEST LINES FROM HIM?

MAY I REQUEST:

"STABILITY UPDATE!"
"FEED IT PIZZA!"
"FEMINISM IN GAMES JOURNALISM"
"THE GREEN LINES ARE PORN SOUNDS"
"CLAPPING AFTER DINNER"
 
I have been super busy the last few days, but bookmarked this thread. This is incredible, thanks so much to everyone involved!

#3 becomes legendary once again.
