I feel like I used to have a Mario card game on my 90's Macintosh? We played go fish in the back of a limo or something... I recall he had pretty complex voice lines in that game.

I'm pretty sure all the edutainment titles predate Charles Martinet as the voice of Mario, and I don't think Nintendo would ever make a game like that these days.
The wiki page literally says Charles Martinet voiced Mario in that game.
The CNN article says Martinet started with Mario Teaches Typing in 1994.
