I too support Rosalina now that I see the potential she has! However, I still believe Jr. or Walu deserve the spot more, but we can't have this game flooded with Mario characters like Marvel vs Capcom 3 did with X-Men characters...

I wouldn't mind it to be honest, it makes sense. X-Men was pivotal to Marvel's success in the same way Mario is significant to Nintendo's success. Mario already saturates the roster once you consider Wario and Yoshi as pseudo-Mario representatives anyways. I agree with you though, Waluigi and Jr. are more deserving. However, I don't necessarily care if they are more deserving. Rosalina would be more unique in my opinion.

Very good point. I do feel like Waluigi would be the most unique, but that's only if Nintendo would truely pull most of his moves, regardless if they are normals or specials, from the Spin Off games like the sport ones or party ones

Anyone else got a silly grin? I know I do.

Heck yeah! Looks like Rosalina's going to be hanging around for a lot longer than anybody expected. I'm really pleased, too. She's a lot more interesting than any other potential Mario rep with a Rosalina and Luma tag-team. .

As an avid Bowser Jr. supporter..... I begrudgingly congratulate you..... and hate you.

Edited to acknowledge that it's better than Toad.

...****. No Waluigi I guess. :(
Congrats you guys. Now if you'll excuse me, I'm gonna go cry in that corner.

CONFIRMED!!! I definitely wanted her, but wasn't expecting her. All of those naysayers on GameFAQs can eat their words.

Congrats Rosalina supporters! I am super psyched to see her playable. If you would have asked me a year ago if I wanted Rosalina, I would of said no but, slowly, I have grown attached to her. I am very glad to see her make an appearance, even if it means my Bowser Jr. is not playable. Congrats everyone! She looks awesome!

Hm. And I heard so many people say that this couldn't happen. I heard people saying she's too insignificant, she hasn't appeared in enough games, she's unnecessary, etc. But here she is.

Can't say I'm disappointed right now. I'm very happy for all those Rosalina supporters out there; I know how much they wanted her.

Congrats Rosalina fans. I'm happy she has a Luma with her too, it shakes things up a little.

Not sure how I really feel since I'm pretty neutral towards her as a character. I guess it only makes sense for the Mario series to get a 5th rep. (a modern one at that) since Zelda and Pokemon already had more overall.

I imagine that's it for Mario reps. Might be time for bowser Jr, waluigi, toad and paper Mario fans to close up shop....

When I saw the trailer first I was convinced Kirby was going to be playable in Mario kart 8.

Does this confirm a Rainbow Road stage also? lol

I definitely thought this was an announcement that Kirby was crossing over into the Mario Kart series..

Congrats guys! I must admit I wasn't keen on the idea of her, but now that I've seen her in action, she looks to be amazing. Great addition for sure!

Just rewatched the trailer and wow, she's big! Looks like Sakurai translated her to Smash very faithfully. The Luma control mechanic seems really unique. Can't wait to play her!

Wow! First Villager, then Wii Fit Trainer and now Rosalina and Luma. I did not expect any of these! Congrats to the supporters, she is the 5th Mario character I'm glad to have considering how unique Sakurai made her. I can already see my future now. My Bowser and DK are going to have a heck of a time trying to fend of both of them at once.

I wonder when the Smashbros site will update with her.

Wasn't a supporter, in fact I didn't really care about mario newcomers. (felt sorry for toad fans though)

Just dropping by to say congratz to all who wanted her playable, looks like ic's meets olimar, good stuff.
