I honestly wonder if any mobile suit pilot in the entire gundam franchise was ever guilty of setting the sounds to classic mario sound clips

Headcanon: Domon from G Gundam had his Gundam set to play various Street Fighter II sound effects, including the announcer's "Round One! Fight!" at the start of a bout and "You win!" after he defeated an enemy. But since almost all of his Gundam Fight battles took place on Earth, he hardly ever got to use this feature and instead just heard the actual sounds the Gundams were making. Also Heero Yui is secretly a furry and set his Gundam to only play sound effects from Sonic the Hedgehog. |

So... pretty much the same explanation as in Mass Effect. Except that explanation is actually referenced in the games themselves....

Yazan Gable's mobile suit is always set to classic Hanna-Barbera sound effects, which is why he's so pleased with combat.

This is firmly a case of trying to find a diegetic solution to a non-diegetic problem. Any in-universe explanation for the phenomenon is really just window dressing for the obvious answer that giant mecha fighting in space are inherently unrealistic and you should just roll with it.

Yeah, that's what the franchise has always done, with things like Minovsky particles. It's part of its charm. |

Another explanation: We the viewer are already dead and lead some type of Newtype existence unbound by physics, after all those who have laid eyes on a Gundam shall not live to tell about it...

Dammit. This is ridiculous.
I thought it would be something like inner-cockpit explosions being heard through radio waves via particles or something. |

They could have hand-waved the matter much quicker by claiming that the viewer is always a Newtype, or some such contrivance.

Minovsky particles are a conductor for sound. There, done!

I heard somewhere that they used a very similar explenation in Star Wars.

The Twitter user posted the title in reply. It's "Kidou Senshi Gundam: Koubou no A Baoa Qu" by Ark Performance (Aoki Hagane no Arpeggio) https://myanimelist.net/manga/84373/Kidou_Senshi_Gundam__Koubou_no_A_Baoa_Qu |

Seems reasonable enough. |

I've long thought audio cues in the cockpit of a spacecraft made sense, as we can't see every direction at once, but we can hear.

Well I think this explanation is not bad and make sens in a way.
