The Sassy Princess of Sarasaland: Daisy for SSB4 (A New Daisy for Smash Thread Opens See Pg. 197)

[Killo89]

I would take every actual measurement of her height with a grain of salt, especially since, as you pointed out, her height changes depending on the game. I think all we can be sure of is that she is a tall woman, apparently taller than Peach. I mean look at this official image:

Yep, taller than Luigi. But look at this:

Peach is also taller than Luigi, nearly by the same amount. I honestly think the main reason Rosalina is pushed to be so tall is that it helps make her more unique in games like Mario Kart, where we can have the first ever female heavyweight.

As far as her being a princess...yes, yes she is. She was the daughter of royalty (no one else lives in castles), and before she became the space goddess both she and her mother wore crowns. So there you go, mystery solved.

Oh, and vote Daisy for Smash.

Don't refer to images. Those can be... vicious...

No but seriously, you can compare in the MP10 photos area. Place them like Daisy, Peach, Rosalina, and you get their height rank. It's true her height always changes depending on the game, but I think there are some rules, like she's taller than Luigi and Peach, but shorter than Bowser and DK (both standing correctly on their two legs).

Hey, I suggest calling her like, you know, "Rosalina", or "Lady Rosalina" if she intimidates you, but nothing else. I mean, except in my thoughts, I don't like saying "Princess", "Mother", "Goddess", "Queen" or any other title just before Rosalina's name. And I even admit I'm wrong saying she isn't a princess, because we don't know, but we don't know if she even has a title... So let's take the easy way. Rosalina.

More like Rosalina's reaction to Lucina and Fiora appearing in Project X Zone 2 over her.

How may gawd
this is the best idea ever


But... hey, that is not the Rosalina thread! let's talk about Deisi-hime.

Well, I respect your opinion of how you prefer to call Rosalina yourself. But people should have the freedom to call anyone how they want to call them how they prefer, Princess Peach, Peach, Toadstool, Daisy, Goddess Rosie, etc. As long as the point is made, it doesn't really make much of a difference, imo. She wear's a crown, so she's a "Princess" to me/ She has some form of "godly" power, I'll see her as a "Goddess". But she still is "Rosalina" even if I add those or prefixes.

Here's to you someone who wholeheartedly agrees with you.

The problem isn't calling someone like you want, it's the fact we don't know... I mean, let's take Palutena's example. Call her Goddess or Queen (Goddess of Light/Queen of Skyworld), that doesn't matter since both are true, but neither Goddess or Princess is true for Rosalina because that's unknown to us.
It's like... err... err.... Okay, let's take... Lucina. Maybe spoiler alert? I'll do it whatsoever, just in case...

Spoiler

She's a princess from a doomed future where everyone is dead. Assuming that, it means she's future-Ylisse's ruler, so, not a princess. Buuuut we don't know if Lissa is dead in the future, meaning she might actually be the ruler, or if with what they did in the past, maybe Chrom is still the ruler or maybe her future wasn't changed but an alternate one was created where everyone's safe, meaning she's the ruler... Quite hard to explain. So yeah, with that, people could actually call Lucina Ylisse ruler, but... We don't know. So, she stays the princess she first introduced as.

Rosalina first introduced herself as... nothing. She stays nothing (but Lubba actually had a cute nickname for her).
It's my point, but I won't change anything... I mean, similar to Peach, wears a dress and a crown = princess, apparently.

So with more news about Hyrule Warriors Legends, it got me thinking. Just like how Wind Waker representation in Hyrule Warriors was scant, with no characters or stages, but then was added on when they ported (an inferior version of) the game to the 3DS, perhaps Mario Maker will come to the 3DS as well, with slopes and added themes like Super Mario Land (which makes sense since it was a handheld game), along with corresponding content and mystery mushroom outfits, like Daisy and Tatanga.

This could also happen as DLC regardless of whether the game is ported to the 3DS. Sometimes, nowadays, developers seem to hold things back so you can pay more later.

I really hope you're right on this. Whilst I'm very impressed with Super Mario Maker, the fact that it's a home-console game holds it back for me, as I have a lot more time for handheld titles, as well as a general preference for them. I would be getting a lot more out of it if it were portable, both in terms of playing levels and creating them.

And they have been producing concurrent versions of games using the same engines but with slightly different features (Smash 3DS/Wii U), cross-buy versions of the same game (Mario vs. DK: Tipping Stars), ports of recent home-console games (Hyrule Warriors Legends), and, on the slightly more tenuous end of it, games that share very similar engines and physics but don't fall into the first category by virtue of a longer time-span between their releases (Mario Kart 7 and Mario Kart 8) for the last couple of years now, so it's certainly not without precedent.

If there were a portable port of Super Mario Maker, I would definitely try to make some Super Mario Land and general Game Boy tribute stuff.

Hi, Princess Daisy Here and I'm Ready For Some Smashin'!

So.......Who’s Daisy?

Princess Daisy is the princess of Sarasaland and first appeared in the game Super Mario Land. She was created by Gunpei Yokoi, Shigeru Miyamoto's mentor.

Although Daisy is the ruler of Sarasaland, her current place of residence is in the Mushroom Kingdom. Daisy is known to be a tomboy, a fact first stated in her debut appearance. Daisy is represented by colors like yellow, orange and green. She has an affinity for flowers; her attire, special abilities, personal emblems and general representations are often flowers.

Years after her initial appearance, Daisy started appearing in more and more Mario games. This was due to the lack of human characters in the series. She now appears in the majority of Mario games, most often as a playable character. Daisy is good friends with Princess Peach, and she interacts positively with many other characters. This includes Luigi, who it has been hinted shares romantic feelings with Daisy. Daisy has appeared in forty Mario series games to date, and continues to do so regularly.

Why Should Daisy Be in Smash?

Despite being a very divisive character, Daisy is liked and well received by several Mario fans to the point that some call her a better princess than Peach. She had been highly requested as a choice of a female fighter mostly pre-Brawl and few post-Brawl by these fans. She has been getting popular with the Smash fanbase lately and is arguably the Krystal of the Mario fanbase.

Though, some Smash fans would come up with excuses like "Daisy would be a clone" and "Daisy is already an alternate palette swap". That did not stop the Mario family (Mario, Luigi, and Wario) from having palettes based on each other. Daisy had shown abilities far more unique than Peach and has a more masculine personality to go with her moveset.

She also could use abilities from Super Mario Land in her moveset since that's were she made her debut in the franchise. She would wear sports outfit to represent all of her appearances in the Mario games, while taking her many skills from such titles as well. That way, she could definitely be more unique compared to her pinker and girlier bestie.


Arguments Against Daisy


Daisy's Irrelevant!
A Mahjong tile got in over her in Mario Maker.

I wouldn’t really say that considering the many appearances she had over the years. She may haven’t appeared in non-spinoff Mario game since Super Mario Land, but she’s still a popular character that had appeared in a wide variety of spinoffs.

She appeared in a majority of them whether it’s Mario Kart, Mario Tennis, Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games, Mario Party, Itadaki Street, Mario Hoops, Mario Baseball, Mario Golf, Mario Strikers, or Mario Sports Mix. Waluigi, another fellow spinoff character, is guilty of making such appearances too since they were made to be partners of notable characters like Peach and Wario.

Calling a character like irrelevant despite making these appearances is like saying Wart is relevant despite not appearing in another Mario title. While she does have her fair share of haters like Waluigi, she’s still beloved by a portion of the fanbase as a female character being good as or better than Peach.

And as for Mario Maker, many other key Mario characters were omitted, such as Nabbit, the Koopalings and Toadette. In fact, Bowser Jr. was cut from Mario Kart but he eventually joined the battle.




Daisy is just Peach 2.0!

Oi vey, the same argument that most of her haters are bound to make. Peach and Daisy are two completely DIFFERENT characters despite being partners in certain spinoffs. While it is partially true since Yokoi made her as a completely new princess for the new kingdom in Super Mario Land, that doesn’t mean that she’s very similar to Peach. She follows a flower motif, has a vastly different appearance, and wears a different colored dress compared to fan favorite princess of the Mushroom Kingdom. You don’t see people accusing Luigi of the same thing despite the fact that they are similar due to being siblings. Also, here’s this gem from the Super Mario Wiki:

“She can be described as energetic, cheerful, and confident. Daisy has a strong competitive drive, and in the face-of-defeat, she has shown hotheadedness, though most of the time she shows just disappointment and at other times, even optimism. She also has a sassy side, and in the past, she has shown-off to get her way. She is also prone to air-kisses during victory celebrations. A unique trait she retains is using various American English accents and slang. She has repeatedly used one-liners said in a Dixie accent, Valleyspeak, and even Ebonics. She also has a sassy side, tending to stand with her hands on her hips and being prone to showing off during victory celebrations.”

Half of everything mentioned (especially her speech patterns) is something that Peach herself had never done before or had such character traits.



Mario doesn't need any more reps!

That is basically a moot point since Mario is one of Nintendo’s most profitable and popular video game franchise in history.

While we can agree that there should be limited slots to how many characters should be added and which franchise should have the most playable representation, we can never have enough playable Mario characters due to how huge the franchise is.

With the implications of DLC thanks to Sal Romano, there’s still a slight chance that the Mario franchise could have even more playable reps as downloads for the fans. For the sake of variety, Daisy could be one of the greatest options to choose from since she could represent the spinoff Mario games with Waluigi out of the picture (due to his current Assist Trophy status).

That being said, Mario is popular enough to say that it’s never enough possible candidates to be playable and accepting the current 6 (or 11?!?!) we have isn’t good enough.



There are already enough royal females in the roster as it is!

We already have plenty of swordsmen (with the addition of Robin and Shulk and the return of Roy), so that’s another moot point. The only royal females we have are Peach and Zelda. I wouldn’t really call Rosalina and Palutena royal the slightest since they rule more than just a simple kingdom and they arguably have more power than any of the princesses. If we can accept a bunch of swordsmen and creatures in the roster, then there’s no harm in accepting the addition of another princess. As previously mentioned, Daisy acts WAY more than just a stereotypical princess and can brawl as much as she wants like a real party player.



The Story of Daisy

Daisy's Possible Reveal Trailer Idea

Spoiler

Mario, Luigi, Bowser, Rosalina and Luma are seen inside Princess Peach's castle. There are decorative banners spelling out "Congratulations!". The three males are gathered around Rosalina and Luma, engaging in conversation and congratulating her about being a newcomer into the world of Smash. Peach is then heard calling Mario's name and all 5 characters look ahead of them. They turn to see Peach carrying a big light blue cake in honor of Rosalina's Smash Bros debut. As Peach is walking to set the cake on the table, Bowser is seen rubbing his hands together and licking his "lips" while Luigi stares in aw at the cake.
Peach sets the cake down and gives the knife to Rosalina so that she can cut the first slice. The camera shows all 6 Mario character eagerly waiting their slice of cake. As Rosalina is about to slice up a piece of cake, the wall behind them suddenly explodes and the 6 characters are shown flying from the impact. The camera shows Rosalina covered in cake and trying to recover from the blast. As she looks up she sees a silhouetted figure standing before her from the light that has been made by the hole in the wall.
The camera zooms into the figure's hand curled up into a fist. As they open up their hand a small crack is heard and the hand is seen dropping small, crystal-like pieces upon opening. Very quickly, the figure is seen wearing a glove with three rings on it. A crystal ring on the index finger, a flower ring on the middle finger, and a ring in the shape of a thorn on the ring finger. As the light from the hole dims down, the camera follows the figure's hand as they are seen brushing their orange-brown hair and as it does that we can see a glimpse of a crown. Finally the camera zooms away, showing none other than...

Daisy Introduces Herself!

The camera zooms back to a surprised Rosalina for a second. While the camera is on her the viewer can hear "Hi," and then the camera is put back on a Daisy with a wicked smile, "I'm Daisy".
The gameplay starts, showing Daisy on top of the old Peach's Castle stage zoomed in really close to the bottom of her dress as it pans to her upper body and head. She then taunts to the camera saying "Hi, I'm Daisy!" with both of her hands waving to the camera.
On Battlefield, the viewer starts to witness Daisy's gameplay as she and Peach go dashing to each other, Daisy going significantly faster than Peach. We see what appears to be her dash attack as she brings both legs up and drop kicks the blonde Princess. Daisy then quickly gets up from the drop kick and charges up. She doesn't have the yellow charge animation so the viewer knows it is not a smash attack. Once Daisy is done charging, the camera shows that her hands have now been crystalized.
Daisy is now seen on the Pilot Wing's stage fighting Little Mac. The boxer tries to strike the tomboy princess but she dodges and is shown using what looks like the Crystal Smash from Mario Strikers Charged. This launches Mac above her, which Daisy jumps and is seen charging again. Now instead of crystals, her hands have been covered in flowers that appear to take the shape of pompoms. Daisy throws a barrage of three hits above her to hit Mac, the first two looking like hook punches and then uses both arms to push Mac out of the stage.
Daisy is then shown running away from Bowser and Dedede in the boxing ring stage. As Daisy jumps in the ring, she is seen charging yet again. Her hands now pointy with huge thorns sticking out. She turns to the two Kings who are running after her. Daisy places her hands on her hips as she stomps her foot on the ground, which simultaneously creates a giant thorn vine to sprout from the ground and send both kings flying to the air.
Daisy is then shown in the Animal Crossing stage fighting along side Samus as the two take on Wii Fit Trainer and Zelda. Samus fires her missle as Daisy is seen with her flower pompoms creating a giant flower shuriken-like object which hits Wii Fit Trainer multiple times and boots her out of the stage. Very briefly, Daisy is no longer seen with the flower pompoms.
In the Mario Galaxy stage, Daisy is seen spiking Luma into the ground, meteor strike style, and it lands right next to Rosalina. As the Luma poofs away, Rosalina runs in the opposite direction as Daisy chases after her.
The camera then cuts to Luigi crouching in the garden of hope. As he looks around in his idle crouch, Daisy comes from above him, looks at him and grabs the cowardly plumber.
The final bit of gameplay shows Daisy grabbing the Smash Ball with Rosalina and Peach on the screen. As the two blondes try to disarm Daisy of the Smash Ball, the camera zooms into grabbing her head in pain as she turns around and drops to her knees. The back of her head is facing Peach and Rosalina & Luma, when all of a sudden a flash is scene from the back of Daisy's head and a large beam exists from the back of it, taking Peach and Rosalina as the title of the game appears on the screen.
Once the credits are over, Daisy can be seen grabbing a piece of cake and eating it as she turns around to see her unconscious "friends", chuckles, and walks right out from the hole that she made.

Princess Daisy
The Will-Probably-Never-Happen (But Whatever) Moveset for Smash Fo(u)r Wii U/3DS.

Her appearance and moveset are based off of her various Mario spin-off appearances. This both embraces her tomboyish character and offers some overdue celebration for Nintendo's ongoing kart racing, party game and various sports series, which have netted nearly 200 million sales overall. I hope to make her entirely unique and distinct from the rest of the cast, and hopefully make y'all feel bad for not requesting Daisy more often. (<3)

Appearance

Her appearance would be based on her outfit in Super Mario Strikers for Gamecube. The color variation and extra clothing would be more appealing on a Smash Bros. character model than her usual sports game attire (considering how little of the screen she'll take up) and offers some cool options for color swaps.
While idling, she'd shift around on her feet as though unable to contain her energy. Her dash would resemble a simple sprint (much like how she would in Strikers, or 3-on-3 Hoops, etc.), as would her initial jump. Her second would be a back flip resembling the high jump animation in the Mario & Sonic at the Olympics. Walking would be a sassy hip-sway, and crouching would be a squat with her hands on the ground, as if ready to jump. Crawling would be a simple hands-and-knees crawl with her head down and cautious.
Her voice will be immediately recognizable and... well, Daisy-like. She'll be easy to annoy with if you spam the right voice cues, but that's what makes Daisy Daisy.
---
Specials

B -- Sports Strike (from Mario Sports Mix, Tennis, Sluggers & Golf)

Much like Peach's Fsmash, this will rotate among four different moves: a baseball bat swing at mid-level, a dodgeball throw at head level, a tennis racket swing at head-to-mid-level and a golf swing at low-to-head level. All of these moves would launch a ball across the stage and have accompanying sound effects. Daisy will shout, "Heads up!" when using it and, if it connects, Daisy will belt out, "HA-HA!" Regardless of connecting, the ball will vanish soon afterward. Can be done in the air without free fall. Not the quickest projectile, and isn't easily spammed, but it does good damage.

sideB -- Start Your Engines (from Mario Kart)

Daisy will appear in a standard kart, much like Wario's bike, only lower to the ground. Instead of going forward instantly, though, you'll hold B to charge the move (revving the engine). If you don't charge long enough, you'll slowly move forward without going very far. Charge a good amount, and she'll fly forward while yelling excitedly. Charge too long and, like in Mario Kart, she'll overload and stall. (This takes a really long time, though.) This can be used for horizontal recovery, but finishes in a free fall. And the kart disappears once the move is done.


upB -- Pole Vault (from Mario & Sonic at the Olympics)

From her spot, on the ground or in the air, she'll strike a pole forward and down and use it to propel her into the air at a 70 degree arc. Think of it like Rosalina's upB, only not quite as high. The pole tip itself is a meteor smash if it connects, but has a very small chance of hitting. As she goes upward and forward, she kicks her legs out in front of her to strike anyone in her path, though the knockback is minimal. She does not go into free fall afterward; instead, she is in a state like after Sonic's upB. This is primarily for recovery, rather than dependable damage.


downB -- Roll of the Dice (from Mario Party)

Daisy will strike a pose toward the screen with her arm raised in the air as a Mario Party die appears from thin air and quickly spins to a number. Works like WFT's Deep Breathing, only it doesn't require as much time and works at random. If she rolls a ten, she'll excitedly yell, "Yeah!" and gain a temporary buff, represented by a gently glowing aura on her body. If she rolls anything else, she'll pout, "Aww..." and gain no buff. The frequency of using this move will diminish her chances of gaining a buff, meaning: if you barely use it, you're very likely to roll a ten when you do, but if you overuse it, you're progressively less likely to roll a ten. This would add a neat wrinkle to competitive play, as players would need to plan when to try and use the buff.
---
Normals

Ground Moves

Fsmash -- A spinning elbow strike in the mid-to-high range.
Usmash -- A bicycle overhead kick. Somewhat like Fox's, but more vertical with little forward range.
Dsmash -- A break dance-like kicking move, a la DDR: Mario Mix. Strikes both sides consecutively.
Jab -- A three-part jab, much like ZSS's in Brawl.
Dash Attack -- A headbutt with her arms bent and weight leaning forward.


Aerials

Nair -- Similar to Zelda's spinning Nair, but with little green flowers twirling around her and a childish "Aha!"
Fair -- A frontal kick with upward knockback; looks like a soccer kick.
Bair -- A double-leg kick much like Mario's. Horizontal knockback.
Uair -- An uppercut. (Mainly just because I think I have too many leg moves.)
Dair -- Legs spread outward and she throws her fists downward, like Sakura from Street Fighter. Possible meteor smash.


Tilts

Ftilt -- Strikes forward in a downward arc with a fencing sword, a la Mario & Sonic at the Olympics.
Utilt -- Waves her hand over her head to cast an array of flowers. Little knockback. For setups.
Dtilt -- Tripping leg sweep, not as good for setups.


Throws
(Grabbing results in a headlock, pummels are noogies. Because that's so Daisy.)

Fthrow -- Knee-to-the-gut, forward knockback.

Bthrow -- Spin 180 degrees to throw backwards.

Uthrow -- Just tosses the character over her head like a sack of potatoes. Little knockback; meant for setting up aerial chains.

Dthrow -- Pushes the character down, all bully-like, and performs an elbow drop on him to launch upward.
---

Taunts

Up Taunt -- Her "DAISY!" quote from selecting her in Mario Kart 8 while hopping up excitedly. Because that's so spammable.

Side Taunt -- She shifts her weight from her heels to her toes with an orange and yellow umbrella held behind her head, humming casually before blowing a big pink bubble that pops on her face. After her eyes grow in surprise, she bends over and cleans it off with her hands.

Down Taunt -- She whips out a basketball and does a quick dribble maneuver (front, back, between the legs) before standing with a hand on her hip and the ball spinning on her finger. Then she tosses the ball behind her nonchalantly. Basketball sound effects ensue.

Winning Pose -- Much like getting a birdy in Mario Golf: World Tour, she twirls in a flurry of flower petals and reappears in her standard dress-- only her finishing pose leaves her flexing her bicep and winking at the screen, saying, "Yeah-eah!" in typical Daisy fashion.
---

Final Smash

Ripping her "Crystallized Daisy" Mega Strike straight from Strikers. When pressing B, she'll kick a soccer ball forward at a slight upward angle. If she hits someone with the ball then, much like Captain Falcon's final smash, that character will go off stage and land in front of a soccer goal. He/she will then cower in fear as Daisy rises into the air, silhouettes and glows, charges her fist and punches a flaming soccer ball directly at the character. He/she is then struck and thrown through the goal's net, then flies off screen for an instant KO once the final smash is over.
---
Aaannnnd... I think that's it! She's a medium-to-lightweight character with moderate speed and surprising power. Her specials are fun but not the fastest, and she relies on her aerial game more than her ground game-- but if you can land a smash, she's pretty freakin' strong. Her specials rely on timing and counting uses, which gives her a unique opportunity for strategy in a 1v1 setup. I tried to reference every one of her spin-off appearances in some way; I don't think I missed any.

Hope y'all enjoy it.

Laniv's Daisy Moveset

Spoiler

---
Daisy appears in her sports outfit with her classic dress as an alt. She uses items from the Mario spinoffs. (Kart, Party, Sports)
Daisy's main thing is that she uses two new elements: flowers (because, you know, Daisy) and crystals (from the Mario Strikers)

Jab: A simple PPK combo. Total 7%.
Forward Tilt: She kicks outward like Ganondorf. A flower effect occurs here. 9%.
Up Tilt: Daisy points upwards and a crystal spike pops up out of the ground. 7%.
Down Tilt: Daisy swipes downward with a crystal-encased hand. 8%
Dash Attack: Daisy gets a glove on her hand and dives for a ball. While she unfortunately fails to catch it, she herself does 11% and sends the opponent out in front of her, setting them up to be hit by the ball for 3% more.

Forward Smash: She winds up with her trusty baseball bat. When she swings, the bat sprouts a flower on the end, like her Star Swing in Mario Super Sluggers. The tip of the bat is the sweetspot, dealing 30% with huge knockback. However, hitting with the middle gives the the classic "PING" sound, but only 11%.
Up Smash: Daisy winds up her fist while charging, then punches a Mario Party dice block. Does 10% uncharged, 20% fully charged.
Down Smash: Daisy spreads out her arms like Lucario, and two traveling crystals slide along the ground one and a half Bowsers away from her. If they hit up close, 19%. As they travel away from her, they deal less damage, the least being 13%.

Neutral Aerial: Daisy pauses for a bit, then unleashes flowers around her, dealing 10% damage with moderate knockback. Great for clearing space around her.
Forward Aerial: A projectile, where Daisy kicks forward a ball from Mario Strikers. The ball deals 12% damage, and can be picked up and thrown like Samus' suit pieces.
Back Aerial: With a wink to the camera, Daisy sends three petals out behind her. Each petal dos 5%.
Up Aerial: Daisy does a crystal-powered flip kick upward for 19% damage. This, along with her down aerial, is a great finisher.
Down Aerial: Daisy gets a boost off a Pikachu-sized crystal, which drills downwards. It hits 6 times for 4% damage each time. This move not only drags the opponent down with the crystal, but if the crystal hits a platform, it becomes stuck there and can only be lifted up by Daisy as a heavy item. Other opponents can stand on the crystal.

Grab and Pummel: Daisy grabs the opponent by the scruff of the neck, being as in-your-face as she is. She shakes them for 3%.
Forward Throw: Daisy heaves the opponent forward with both hands, dealing 16%.
Back Throw: Daisy kicks the opponent backwards for 10%. But juuuust to make sure, she produces a Bob-omb from her pocket, and tosses it over her shoulder right at the hapless opponent for an extra 12%.
Down Throw: Daisy knocks the opponent down to the ground, and performs a flying elbow drop on them, burying them into the ground. 8%.
Up Throw: Daisy snaps her fingers, and suddenly a flower sprouts up from the ground and whisks the opponent up, up, and away! As Daisy says "Bye-bye!", the flower carries the opponent two Bowsers above her, for 11%, with a little pop upwards at the end.

Neutral Special--Flower Power: Daisy charges up a fist that can be stored for later use. When unleashed, Daisy lunges forward and punches. Anyone who is hit gets 25% initially, and gets the flower effect for 5 seconds after, dealing 1% per second.

Custom Neutral 1-- Haymaker Flower: Faster animation, but deals only 13%. It passes through the opponent and stuns them.
Custom Neutral 2-- Flower Flurry: If the move connects, Daisy hits the opponents five times before sending them away for 20%.

Side Special-- Daisy Kart: Daisy hops on a kart and shoots straight forward while shouting "Outta the way!" to anyone foolish enough to be standing there. It deals 17% and acts similarly to the Wario Bike, but indestructible and it does not remain on the stage. Daisy can press jump to dismount from the kart if she wishes. If Daisy is holding a throwing item while she uses Daisy Kart, she can still use it! If the attack is used in midair, a glider sprouts out of the kart, and Daisy can gently float down. She cannot jump out in midair.

Custom Side 1-- Daisy Bike: Providing an accurate simulation of Mario Kart Wii's online, Daisy hops on a motorbike (specifically the Mach Bike from Mario Kart Wii) and charges forward. This time Daisy deals 20% and moves faster, but no glider appears.
Custom Side 2-- Daisy Glide: The glider on the kart is much bigger. Daisy can now rise if the player holds up. However, it deals a piddly 8%.
Up Special-- Crystal Smash: Daisy shoots upward to meet a Strikers ball, and smashes it away with a crystallized hand. Anyone unfortunate enough to be in the way when Daisy smashes the ball is meteor smashed hard for 22%. This isn't the best recovery move, though: Daisy only flies a certain distance to meet the ball.

Custom Up 1-- Pop Fly Ball: Daisy moves almost completely vertical to catch a baseball. No damage here; this move is mainly for recovery.
Custom Up 2-- Crystal Vortex: Daisy moves slower to reach the Strikers ball. When she reaches it, opponents in proximity are sucked in and blasted away for 25%. The ball also explodes.

Down Special-- Flower Bed: Daisy focuses for a bit, and a flower bed appears where she stands. If an opponent walks over the bed of flowers they'll take steady chunks of damage as long as they stand there. If they stay there for too long, they experience inner peace from prolonged exposure to the garden, and drift off to sleep, completely vulnerable to any attacks. On the other hand, if Daisy stays there for long enough, she gets healed for up to 35%. However, an opponent can brave the risk of damage and sleep, and knock her away from the flowers. Only one flower bed can be on stage per Daisy, and it goes away after 10 seconds.

Custom Down 1-- Nipper Plant Bed: Calamity! As it happens, Daisy brought the wrong seeds and has planted a bed of Nipper Plants instead! This is only bad news for the opponents, as they will nibble and gnaw at the heels of anyone who comes close for 5%, while Daisy herself is unharmed. However, the Nipper Plants only last 5 seconds and there is no healing effect.
Custom Down 2-- Flowering Bed: If an opponent tries to stop and smell the roses here, they'll get plenty more than they bargained for. Opponents that step in this flowerbed get a flower on their head for their troubles.
Final Smash-- Crystal Prison: Having cracked a Smash Ball, Daisy floats up, and surrounds herself with crystals that orbit her. Other opponents become sucked in, and are bounced around inside for massive damage. After 10 seconds, the crystals explode, and all opponents are sent flying away.

Taunts
Up Taunt: Waves to the screen and shouts her infamous "Hi, I'm Daisy!" Easily spammable, too!
Side Taunt: She picks up a Mario Kart item box and peers into it.
Down Taunt: She tosses her hair and looks away with a "Hmph!"

Victory Poses
1. Twirls her bat and leans on it with a smug expression on her face.
2. The "Hot stuff!" taunt from Mario Strikers.
3. Jumps up in the air and lands on a giant flower. She winks at the camera.

Her losing pose has her clapping with a pouty expression.

Overview
Daisy is a very acrobatic character, being quick and strong in the air. Her only downsides are her light weight and poor recovery, so if she gets knocked off the stage, she'll have a hard

Up Special 3 - Torpedo | Vertical height is between 1 and 2 and the second hit is excatly like the Mii's Soaring Axe Kick

Down Special 1 - Rolling the Dice | A Mario Party die appears above her, showing a number between 1 and 6
Down Special 2 - Lucky Roll | Only 1s, 5s and 6s are available, 1 dealing 2 times more damage, 5 only lasts 5 seconds and 6 has a destructible sheild and is weaker.
Down Special 3 - Risk & Reward | Daisy can manually select the number, much like Shulk's Monado Arts, but it will give 10% damage, no matter the number and 2% every second if the number is higher than 2 for 10 seconds (+20%).

1 = 10% damage to Daisy (20% for Lucky Roll)
2 = Nothing...
3 = Daisy is faster for 10 seconds
4 = Daisy is stronger for 10 seconds
5 = Daisy is stronger AND faster for 10 seconds (5 seconds in Lucky Roll)
6 = A crystal sheild protects her from all attacks except grabs for 5 seconds
(indestructible, unless on Lucky Roll)

Final Smash - Empress Daisy | "Borrowing" Peach's Mega Strike from Mario Strikers Charged, she jumps up as she sprouts wings and a giant crown that looks like a halo. Then she curls up in a protective position before eleasing a flash from her wings, creating a shockwave similar, but much weaker than Tabuu's Off Waves.

Nintendotard's Moveset

Spoiler

Neutral Special - Flower Buff / Crystal Buff -

Daisy charges for about a second and a half and has either flower petals or crystal shards circling around her. Slightly similar to Shulk's Monado power each has its own properties to them.

FB: Daisy's Flower Buff allows her moves to be a lot more agile and easier to combo with. However they do less damage than without the buff and their knock back is lowered. The Flower Buff can be accessible for 10
seconds and takes the exact amount to recharge until use again. She can quickly change into Crystal Buff just pressing B again, but the second and a half charge time is still there.

CB: Daisy's Crystal Buff slows down her moves by making Daisy wind up for each move. She won't be able to get a lot of combos while in this buff, but her damage increase and knock back is increased. Like the Flower Buff, Crystal Buff lasts 10 seconds and will take 10 seconds to recharge. If Flower Buff is changed into Crystal Buff about 5 seconds in, it will only last that amount of time left (the second and a half charge will not add up to it)

Other notes: If either Flower Buff or Crystal Buff are cancelled back into Daisy's regular state, she will still have to wait 10 seconds before using either buff again. These buffs also change the properties of Daisy's other special moves.

Side Special - Tomboy Twirl / Wonder Flower / Crystal Slab -

Depending if Daisy is using her buffs or not, this move will have different properties. The move itself involes Daisy spinning towards the direction the input is made. Here's a good idea on how the twirl looks itself as well as the final hit ( https://youtu.be/Ph_lbxLxmvQ?t=1m11s ).
TT: Not copying Peach Bomber whatsoever, Daisy instead does a miniature twirl that almost resembles R.O.B.'s Side Special, just a lot less spinning. Anyone caught in Daisy's twirl will receive damage. Something to note
about this move is that, like R.O.B.'s players will be slightly trapped if caught and the final hit knocks the opponent back

WF: Similar to Daisy's Offensive Shot in Mario Power Tennis, the flower petals enveloping Daisy form into a giant flower the size of a tennis racket. While Daisy is in her Flower Buff, the twirl itself no longer will hit the enemy, but there is a small windbox due to the petals spinning rapidly. Once the flower is formed, it tracks the opponent closest to it and rapidly hits them, hitting a maximum of 10 times. If there is no one around, the flower will wilt within 3 seconds. Good for edge-guarding. Will remove Daisy's Flower Buff once used.

CS: The twirl now takes a little longer to be completed. If anyone is in Daisy's way they will no longer be hit by the twirl, but pushed away from her. Once her twirl is complete, the crystal shards around her form a small crystal that quickly launches about the size of final destination. If it its anything it will be destroyed. Does great knock back if it connects. Will remove Crystal Buff once used.

Up Special - Leaping Daisy / Petal Breeze / Shard Spike

Daisy goes into a ball and back flips directly up. Has some horizontal control similar to Wario's Up Special in Brawl.

LD: Description above. Daisy gives herself a final push to make it up. While she is into a ball she can hit her opponents.
PB: Has a windbox the entire recovery. Much like her other moves comes out faster. No change in height is made
SS: Very similar to Leaping Daisy, but the final push she gives at the end will spike an opponent next to her. Small shards come flying down from both sides.
Down Special - Thorn Barrier / Flower Trap / Crystal Pillar - Daisy stomps her foot on the ground and depending on whether she has her buff or not, one of the following happen.
TB: Thorn Barrier acts a lot like Pit and Dark Pit's Guardian Orbitars, but do not reflect items. Large thorns surround her, taking the blow of whatever is trying to hit her. Is used for taking projectile hits, can even take a Falcon Punch if timed correctly.
FT: Once Daisy stomps her foot on the ground, a small flower bud is placed very close to her, around the same as Villager's sapling. If anyone steps on the flower bud, the bud engulfs the player. It does no damage, but gives Daisy a 2 second chance (default trapping, the higher the damage the more you have to struggle, like Jigglypuff's sing) to punish the opponent. Will not engulf if opponent jumps over it. Can only have one bulb at a time. If bulb is not activated, it will wilt within 5 seconds.
CP: A crystal pillar spikes from the ground up slightly farther away from Daisy. Think 2 Stage builder blocks from Brawl. The pilar itself is 3 stage builder blocks stacked together. It can punish people running and jumping towards her. Like all her Crystal Buff moves, it comes out a little sluggish.

Crystal Garden

The two rings on Daisy hands (in my moveset, Daisy has a flower ring and a crystal ring) glow bright, and as Daisy lifts her hand, huge vines grab the fighters in front of Daisy's line of vision and are engulfed by a giant teal crystal. Daisy
then forms her crystal hand and charges through each fighter that was captured in the crystal, shattering them and having teal petals fly from them. The fighters are sent flying shortly afterwards. Special Note: Daisy will crash through each crystal, but will stop at the last one to ensure that she has safe recovery.

I really hope you're right on this. Whilst I'm very impressed with Super Mario Maker, the fact that it's a home-console game holds it back for me, as I have a lot more time for handheld titles, as well as a general preference for them. I would be getting a lot more out of it if it were portable, both in terms of playing levels and creating them.

And they have been producing concurrent versions of games using the same engines but with slightly different features (Smash 3DS/Wii U), cross-buy versions of the same game (Mario vs. DK: Tipping Stars), ports of recent home-console games (Hyrule Warriors Legends), and, on the slightly more tenuous end of it, games that share very similar engines and physics but don't fall into the first category by virtue of a longer time-span between their releases (Mario Kart 7 and Mario Kart 8) for the last couple of years now, so it's certainly not without precedent.

If there were a portable port of Super Mario Maker, I would definitely try to make some Super Mario Land and general Game Boy tribute stuff.

If Super Mario Maker came to 3DS I could die happy. It would work so well on it too. I don't even know why it's a Wii U exclusive other than just trying to push more Wii U sales. Maybe it will eventually come to 3DS too, I'm not sure what hardware requirement would make it home-console only.

Edit: Even better since I have a New Nintendo 3DS XL, so I could use my Charizard amiibo to play SUPER ZARD BROS.

Mario Maker is actually more demanding than most people think. The game has to be able to keep up with so many entities on the screen at once, and be able to load SMB 1, SMB 3, SMW and NSMB styles near instantly. Not to mention the ability to switch from edit to play mode instantly.

Which is all stuff that the 3DS could also do, anyway. The object-limit might be lowered a bit, and perhaps you might have to commit to one style before creating a level, but there's no reason it couldn't work.

Question! Is Ganondorf a costume as well??

Yes, Ganondorf is one of the costumes.

All Amiibos not named Shovel Knight can be used in Mario Maker! This includes all Smash characters.

And you never know if SK might be patched in later.

 

[Yomi's Biggest Fan]

The new OP is ready and live, meaning that the second post is no longer needed for containing the list. Everything is fully updated thanks to memoryman3's font and the aforementioned updated list.

You forgot the afro on the list! Really?

With so much activity and chaos going on, it's hard to really keep track of everyone and I normally add people when they ask to be on the list. My apologies if I've forgotten about you for this long (even though this thread would probably die in a few weeks on the day the ballot is closes).

 

[StarCrystal20]

Ok.. I normally consider myself a good artist, but this is definitely a crappy edit I made. I wanted to make a proper Daisy alt costume for Peach, but NOT in a dress. That's overdone. And besides, it would be confusing if there was Peach in her Daisy colors fighting the Daisy alt or Peach in her pink normal dress vs Daisy in Peach colors.
Anyway, here's my take on the idea of Peach's 9th alt costume: Daisy in her sports outfit.
In my imagination, Daisy would only be playable only in her sports outfit. Enjoy this crappy edit!! If anyone is good at editing or feels like it, feel free to touch this up! and sorry if her ass looks too big, it was just that Peach's hand was already on the really wide round part of the dress, and I couldn't remove it so I just drew her butt and thighs in that area, resulting in Daisy having a big ass. Also, I like to draw Daisy as thicker than Peach who to me is more skinny. There is much more of a contrast that way.

Also I know she's wearing heels instead of sneakers. I was too lazy to add them in though and it seemed difficult.
And I don't know if it's just me but I always go through different Daisy outfit phases. I used to ONLY like Daisy in her dress and want her in Smash in her dress only, but now I only want her in her sports outfit lol.

 

[HanAmes]

Yes, Ganondorf is one of the costumes.

Ah, thank goodness...at least we have the full triforce lineup in SMM.

 

[Mr. Bulldops]

Yeah, now that you mention it, I did hear some complains back in the days of Sunshine when Jr debuted.

Pretty much. With the age of the Internet, you're just more likely to see whiners even if the number hasn't changed. The situations are about identical, right down to Bowser Jr. being a popular pick in Mario Kart Double Dash while Rosalina is the same in Mario Kart Wii/8 (more so the latter due to nothing being as OP as Funky was in Wii but still).

Well the difference is that Rosalina has an amiibo and Daisy hasn't, which has serious drawbacks.

Suddenly, you see that Amiibo characters are making all sorts of appearances! Sonic is playable in a Mario platformer before Daisy is!

Having an amiibo helps, but there's a thought process that goes into which characters get amiibos anyways. For one reason or another, they didn't want to make an amiibo for Daisy. They could've with Mario Party 10 as they did with Toad after all.

I've always been perplexed about the notion of Rosalina's exceptional height. When she debuted in Mario Galaxy, she was an NPC. NPC's are often scaled larger. The NPC's in Mario Kart 8 are huge compared to the drivers. I suppose she may indeed be slightly taller than Peach, but she's no giant.

Her model in general is larger in Mario Kart, and the actual ingame models for her in most games are generally taller. I think someone else noted that she and Peach are the same height in 3D World but I think there was a slight difference in height even there too, though that's mostly for gameplay purposes anyways. Games like Mario Golf and Mario Party run with her height being tall with it being subject to change on a game to game basis, much like Bowser.

Besides, Sakurai made it a point to note how tall she was with a miiverse post for a reason. Her average height is generally really tall, hence why she's the tallest female in Smash and one of the tallest characters in general (only beat out by Ganondorf and maybe Bowser).

Very good points. Rosalina may indeed be kind of taking the spotlight right now, but I don't think Daisy is going anywhere. Both of them have already appeared together in a number of games.

It's not like Daisy has had less appearances since Rosalina got more. All game subseries' that featured Daisy in the past still feature her now. Smash still does what it always did with her with an alternate coloration of Peach's serving to reference Daisy, while 3D World and SMM are totally new games.

So, in conclusion, all of the aforementioned characters should've had a spot in SMM instead of scrapping at the bottom of the proverbial barrel with a bunch of random objects, and such.

Alright, just wanted to be clear that it's not a Daisy exclusive thing for Mario Maker to be lacking in characters.

Mario rosters as of late have been random, to say the least. 3D World, Smash, and Mario Golf World Tour are about the only ones that made sense for what they were.

 

[Tortilla Noggin]

Mario rosters as of late have been random, to say the least. 3D World, Smash, and Mario Golf World Tour are about the only ones that made sense for what they were.

I've started using the nickname "Mario Roster Syndrome" for this (until Super Mario Maker hit, it was "Mario Kart Roster Syndrome"), and I (half-jokingly) hold that we all ought to worry about it hitting Smash once Sakurai retires from the series, when we will surely see the likes of Diddy Kong and other fan-favourites cut in favour of the likes of Wiggler and Honey Queen and giving random power-ups their own roster slots instead of skins.

Poor Lip. Forever shafted as minor cameos in Smash instead of being another puzzle fighter. Well at least she isn't owned by a tyrannical company like Sega who loves to crap on the Puyo franchise within every opportunity and avoid any opportunity to release the games in the West after the Fever series flopped there (Poor Arle).

I'd take a slightly watered down version as opposed to running out to buy a Wii U.

I suppose you'd take watered down versions of Star Fox Zero, Xenoblade Chronicles X and Zelda U when they release as well? I mean why buy a Wii U at all, really. It's not like Nintendo has been trying to get you to buy it.

No wonder the PS4 and XboxOne beat the WiiU in sales, even more with the addition of the highly anticipated Metal Gear Solid 5 TPP.

The fighters could be nearing the end of their developments with perhaps a lot of fine tuning to make sure they are competitively fair. What mistake did the director of this game make? Whatever happens, Smashboards' news authors better not post leaks from dataming again. I was OK with seeing Roy's and Ryu's names posted around the Internet for DLC, but not the pictures being posted on the main community website. I'm guessing the time the characters would be released would be at most half the time this fighter ballot event is taking.

Your move Sakurai...

I highly, highly doubt they will make that same mistake again. They know full well of the Royu leak I'm sure. If they DO make that mistake again then...maybe they just don't care. Which seems pretty out of character for them. And their coders can't be THAT incompetent.

Wow, Daisy had really let herself go after that Super Mario Maker incident. I bet she decieed to take some beauty tips from Grunty after realizing that she needs to be "pretty" enough to get more support in the Smash Ballot.

According to @BKupa666 that misspelling was entirely intentional and a reference.
