Super Mario Bros. Wonder will let you turn off Talking Flowers voice
Posted on 1 year ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch | 0 comments
Nintendo has confirmed that players will be able to turn off the voices for the Talking Flowers in Super Mario Bros. Wonder.

Nintendo previously said that the flowers are in to make the adventure a bit more lively – plus they may give you hints or even coins. However, not everyone will be interested in hearing them talk, and it’s a never a bad thing to have options.
