"It's-a Him, Mario!" This man was the voice of Mario and Luigi

Also true of programmers, graphic artists, game designers…

I do understand that VO talent can be amazing, and that acting is gig to gig, so earning a living at it is very hard. And I understand that developing ones craft takes time and dedication. Same goes for the programmers, graphic artists, game designers…yet nobody gives them residuals.

I’m not necessarily begrudging actors residuals, but wondering why they should get them for a few days of work on a game when people who worked for months and even years on the games should not?
