Social Mother of the Cosmos: Rosalina [General/Social] Thread (Closed)

[mario123007]

I'm not saying I wouldn't have preferred "Young Rosalina" from the storybook. I definitely would have.

Let's hope she can make it to the next Mario Kart then.

I just don't see the problem with Baby Rosalina either. She's a completely inoffensive addition.

I that case, I hope she only appears in Mario Kart and other spin -off title, just like most other baby characters...

 

[Tino]

I hope not. The way I see it, Baby Rosalina's existence ruined who Rosalina really is as a character. I don't care if it's only for spin-offs nor do I care what anyone says, I'm hoping they don't use her again.

 

[ChikoLad]

Saw this on r/amiibo and thought it was funny.

 

[Underhill]

I never understood the pure hate for Baby Rosalina. At least she is a different model and not just a texture swap like Pink Gold Peach and Metal Mario.

She's inconsistent with the past and lore of Rosalina, but it's Mario Kart, so who cares? The story is kinda irrelevant there. Heck, Rosalina doesn't even use her powers in Mario Kart anymore. She can just be a kid that happens to look like Rosalina.

Plus, I love her facial expressions. She totally looks like she's ready to cut someone.

People got problems, that's why.

Maybe it's because people don't want more baby characters, and especially those who aren't cannon(Daisy idk)...but I could be wrong

 

[Char Seasalina]

She is inconsistent with the lore since why would she have platinum blonde hair with a big bang over her eye as a baby, then have apricot hair and a different hairstyle as a kid, and go back to the platinum blonde hair and bangs as an adult?

The bangs can be explained as a style change but the hair colour changing like that wouldn't make any sense.

Perhaps her "Storybook" look was when she had grown into a young girl and she can have a white nightgown & crown. Her baby look was when she was still undercare and her parents decides how she should look. Keep in mind that her family is of royalty and she can have gems as a baby. Her hair went through mutations as she grew up. "Her father has red hair. This means he has two copies of the recessive gene. Her mother doesn't have red hair. She has two copies of the "normal" MC1R gene. Rosalina is their daughter, and inherits one gene from each. The non-redhead dominant version drowns out the redhead version, and so River has non-red hair." is my guess at birth. So she was platinum blonde at birth. At childhood, it went through some mutation as she hits puberty. As she reach adulthood, she reverts back to her style like when she was a baby.

Or something real simple. Hair dye + New clothes + Haircut/Hairgrownth + Magical transformation = Baby Rosalina - Child Rosalina - Rosalina
I bet you wouldn't be confused about Rosalina's evolution if you were Rosalina herself. And I don't understand why Nintendo doesn't bother explaining it either.

Oh, and here is a picture predicting Rosalina's near future in Rio, it's an artwork made by Derochi. I like how the artist would make actual official picture for Rosalina at any new/upcoming games so I can see and examine Rosalina's new feature that she hasn't have before. It's quite interesting that she's getting accustom to her home planet, and I feel like the Lumas are a little left out. I hope Rio has a story so Rosalina could play a role, like the other character does in "Mario & Sonic at the London 2012 Olympic Games". Because let's be honest, how long has it been since Rosalina was in a story? Sm4sh or 3D World doesn't count because they're fighting (Where Rosalina only has a trailer) and platformers (Where she is just an unlockable). Stories are what first made me like Rosalina, and I wish it could still happen. Well, here's the Pic:

Spoiler: New outfit means more personality!

 

[ChikoLad]

I just highly doubt Rosalina used hair dye as a child, or even that such grounded concepts existed on her planet.

I just don't think the hair colour change would make sense. I can explain how Rosalina's hair went from apricot to platinum blonde, but it being platinum blonde as a baby seems off to me. I don't think it's supposed to make sense though. Baby Rosalina is non-canon right now and I kinda don't think she is Rosalina anyway.

 

[TheBeardedPunisher]

Whenever Pretty Rosalina shows both eyes, it's quite a sight to behold. I like the artist's take on the flow of her hair with a starry background bordered by her hair. It has a very unique feel to it.

And this image seems to agree with you:

May our past and future selves collide and save the universe, tis a "Partner in Time" reference...

Spoiler: L and R swap

I found this about once a man in green and the mother of stars, swapping colors together. She uses her magic and switch their favorite colors to the other to see what they look like in the other.
The father, weird. The mother, ok.

 

[Mario & Sonic Guy]

Did Baby Rosalina grow up drastically?! She looks quite big on that image.

I guess the babies counterpart are considered to be cute with big features such as eyes, hats, and things like that. Well, it doesn't make any sense if it were to be real/realistic. You don't suppose how Baby Rosalina grew up into Rosalina's feminine figure in such a way do you?

You could probably ask that same question for all the baby characters, including Baby Mario and Baby Luigi.

You wouldn't think it at first, but Rosie looks pretty good as a brunette.

 

[IvanQuote]

Regarding Baby Rosalina canon-wise, I'm not quite bothered by it as much as I should be because I feel that my Xenocide theory covers it quite succinctly.

http://smashboards.com/threads/moth...l-social-thread.324285/page-286#post-20039842

What I am more bothered by is why Bowser's Castle from Paper Mario appears in Mario Kart Super Circuit "Rainbow Road" when that is clearly not in the paper dimension, but I digress.

I can't agreed with you much more. I hope they won't have her in every Mario spin-off titles.

That's one of the reason.

 

[MezzoMe]

Uh, I just think that she got platinum blonde hairs after accepting to become a mother, in fact the third-to-last image of the storybook

Spoiler: Why am I even putting this under spoilers?

She has light hairs, less faded dress and I think lighter eyes, compared to the rest of the book

[Swiftie_Muggle]

i enjoyed how they slammed Baby Rosalina in that other video.

She is literally the worst character in Mario Kart 8. Pink Gold Peach is terrible, but looking that MM returned , it was only fair for them to add a ''partner'' to him , and because Nintendo clearly got lazy when it came to the final 2 characters in the final roster of the base game.

Baby Rosalina is horrible , because:

1) The pure idea of another baby is really stupid

2) Clearly shows that they didn't even care about Rosalina's roots .

3) Baby Peach copycat , just like Baby Daisy. They already had that bad idea in MKWii , and now they did it again in MK8.

Other stuff that go along with the statement , is that she is a lightweight , a weight class at disadvantage in the game.

They even confused it even more with her having a slightly filtered voice , while Rosalina does not. How is that even possible?

She is horrible , worst than any other baby. Even Baby DK would have been better as he is unique.

Big blonde with the pink, I say ok and good with the pink on her dress and while the little one looks good.

Anyone who watches wrestling remember this totally completely safe and normal moment in WCW?

 

[TheBeardedPunisher]

So Game Grumps finally beat Super Mario Galaxy after 84 episodes and lots of deaths and then backing out on completing the game again. And they NEVER read Rosalina's storybook! That by far was the biggest injustice in that playthrough.
