History with the Mario Series
Voicing Bowser
Scott Burns began his career at the suggestion of another voice actor and gained notability through his ability to impersonate people and characters such as Clint Eastwood and Popeye. Nintendo hired Burns first to voice Bowser in Super Mario Sunshine, the first video game in which Bowser was given a speaking role beyond his growls and roars. Following this role, Scott continued to voice Bowser without fail, giving him a series of throaty grunts, laughs, and exclamations that were new to the character.
Absence and Return
Following Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games in 2007, Scott Burns ceased to voice Bowser for nearly a year. Eric Newsome voiced Bowser in Mario Party 8, Super Paper Mario, Super Smash Bros. Brawl. Kenny James took on the role in Super Mario Galaxy and Mario Kart Wii. In 2008, Scott returned to voice Bowser in Mario Super Sluggers. Whether he will provide Bowser's voice in Mario & Luigi RPG 3 and other future titles is to be seen.
