Well, here it is! The interview with Juan Amador Pulido on Twitch on October 18 answering my question about working on Punch-Out!! Wii. I went ahead and (did my best to) translate what was said.
Interviewer: Here we have, beatlesgirl [note: my username is beatlesgirl90] who says “What was it like voicing Don Flamenco in Punch-Out!! Wii? That is if you remember. He is the character that made me a fan of yours!”.
Juan Amador: Yes, yes, wow. There’s a lot of, there are many people who are fans of this character, huh? I was surprised. I recorded for this many years ago, not sure when to be exact. It could have been practically ten or twelve years ago.
It was recorded at Pinknoise [Studios] and I really wasn’t aware that I was going to do Don Flamenco either. I remember that it was not a very long session, and they were very short phrases that he did. And well, I remember, as you know for video games we normally record looking at the audio waveform on the program that each studio uses to record for a video game. But in this video game, I do remember that there were quite a few cinematics and I saw his face. But I didn’t think I had to worry because there are people who have written to me about this character.
Interviewer: That’s good. I understand that you have a clear memory of this due to the fans writing to you about him?
Juan Amador: Yes, I believe so. Yes. *chuckles*
Interviewer: Do you remember a phrase or a word you said from this or no?
Juan Amador: Somewhat. What I do remember is he is always thinking about Carmen. In his beloved named Carmen. *in Don’s voice* Carmen!
Juan Amador: My wife’s name is Carmen, too.
Interviewer: Here, they put “olé!”, in quotation marks.
Juan Amador: Oh yes, “olé!”. That’s another one of his phrases he said *in Don’s voice* Olé!
Interviewer: Well, beatlesgirl says “thank you for responding to my question”. She’s the fan of the character who says “olé”…Don Flamenco.
Juan Amador: Yes, Don Flamenco.
Interviewer: They have put another phrase, “Carmen, mi amor”.
Juan Amador: *In Don’s voice* Carmen, mi amor! *normal voice* Yes, of course.
