Aussies pronounce SEGA as see-ga.

I remember that we did too in the UK back in master system days. The start up had the sega lettering but no voice effects so it was just a guess we made I assume. Obviously the megadrive/genesis came along and sega was actually spoken on start up then so yeah, we all changed then.

Not sure why the Aussies would have stuck with the original.

I think that's just the nature of their accent tho. Like say Mad Max for example. They normally say Meed Meex.

How do you say razorblades in Australia?

Rise up lights.

Mario is pronounced Ma-Re-O over here which is correct as far as I am aware?
Yeah, to his fucked up UK ear, Mah Ree Oh sounds like Mo-Rio. Because they pronounce it Mare-E-Oh like retards.

Rise Up Lights. If you actually say it fast enough, it does sound like you have a Australian Accent. Very good

Chill dude. Remember the English language originates from England. The correct pronunciation is the English way. Just saying...

The pronunciation for Mario comes from commercials from Nintendo which pronounces it differently for each country.

Think how Jesus is pronounced differently in Spanish speaking countries...
