This has been added to the submission, thank you.
Shame that he'd leave the role just under half a decade afterwards such an accomplishment, going against his word to voice the 4 Italian Plumbers until dropping dead: https://www.vgfacts.com/game/supermariobroswonder/trivia-15877/
But of course whether or not it was his decision and how the idea of Mario Ambassador came to be is still yet to be confirmed. Good luck either way to Kevin Afghani accomplishing such a thing within the next 50 years from now.

Should probably mention that, as mentioned in the source, this voice credit is what got Martinet the Guinness World Record for "most videogame voiceover performances as the same character." To supplement that, the official page for the record on Guinness' site is https://www.guinnessworldrecords.com/world-records/539489-most-videogame-voiceover-performances-as-the-same-character
