Well , at least be sure to use Rosalina properly. You need to learn her basics and many things about her movesets before using her. And this is kinda required after Palutena was confirmed to be GREAT in the recent event. Just a thought :p :bee:
I sub mained Ganondorf back in Brawl and won most of my rounds, I think I'll do fine. One thing to is it's not going to be super competitive, probably the first thing we're doing in the game (assuming our characters are starters), so no practice for either of us.

Unfortunately I won't be recording it, but our future rematch in the Wii U version will be recorded. I'm thinking of starting a silly video series were I challenge random people to three matches, they choose the first event, second is mii vs mii, third is their main vs mine over commentary and petty insults, so I'll be putting a lot of Rosalina videos up online.

Hooray for Laura!!! Happy to see her back. Did you guys see that Rosalina is going to get her actual Fire Costume along with the inverted one? It showed in the demo. HYPE

Let's see...Default, Gold, Pink, Green, Inverted Fire, and Fire. That's six. There is still hope for Cosmic Rosalina!
Seeing Cosmic Rosalina in HD will be so cool!

Speaking of pic of the day, what will Sakurai post and do at the last week of Smash Bros 3DS release? I'm so curious.

I can't tell what voice actor that @ ChikoLad ChikoLad and @ Swiftie_Muggle Swiftie_Muggle likes because their comment are too complicated.
You guys,debate but don't argue. This issue to me I am just curious of you guys thoughts about Rosalina's voice? Does she really sounds too "Peachy" in MK8 and SM3DW?To me all of her voice actor are all great.
I love Mercedes and Laura equally, and I wasn't too big on Kerri's past performances, though thought she could do fine if given more time.

I don't think Laura sounded too high or like Peach at all. I can do an impression of Peach despite being male because her voice is so insanely high pitched (I can do really high pitched and really low pitched voices, if that's pretty much all they are defined by e.g. Yoshi or Peach for high pitched). I won't ever be able to do Laura's (or Mercedes') Rosalina, because it's a much more refined (realistic, even) voice, that doesn't go to any extremes (even Rosalina's high pitched voice clips aren't to an extreme - you can even hear the break in her voice when Laura does the higher pitched Rosalina quotes, which is a note of the maturity difference between Rosalina and Peach, and she sounds quieter). That's why I find it absurd to compare Laura's Rosalina to Peach. The latter is high to a real extreme that anyone capable of doing extremely cartoony/comical voices can pull it off.

------------

I guess it's cool that we sort of got Fire Rosalina...except no ponytail. :\

I guess I just find it odd as to why the names are written in English and not Japanese, regardless of Japanese name vocals traslated to English. Why not ロゼッタ&チコ instead of Rosetta & Chiko?
It's just because it's pop culture in Japan. They like to spell things in English, and in anime, they say things in English for things if they shout attacks. In Japan, there's tons of things spelled with the Latin alphabet. The symbol "&" is exactly used there as it is here. In-game, it is spelled both "ロゼッタ&チコ" and "Rosetta & Chiko."

As for Rosalina's voice actress, I don't mindt oo much. The main problem I had was with the fact Nintendo removed Rosalina's signature echo, which is primarily why Mercedes' voice is amazing. However, it seems they brought it back for Smash Bros. but the echo isn't as strong as Mario Kart Wii, which is fine. So I'm happy.

Guess you're right, I don't hear her voice much these days.
And I don't really want to pick your bone but when you quote my comment why do you take out my username on the quote? I can't know you quoted my comment if you do that.

Sure is.
Echo voice makes her sounded like a goddess if you ask me.

Peach has a Fire Peach dress too, it was confirmed yesterday. Like Rosalina though, she doesn't get the ponytail.

The ponytail likely would've required some additional model rigging, and based on what I've seen in Brawl, all recolors have to use the exact same bone structure for the animations to work properly for them.

It's kinda ''meh'' that neither will have a Ponytail ;/
But at least we get the recolors!
i want to say the best part about the emails was reading the replies! especially Kerri's since she showed interest in Rosalina as a character! Yay for Her!
Now i finally settled this down and solved the mystery , Thanks Me♥♥♥

This game is on a completely different engine though. And we've already seen examples of characters getting different alts like that anyway.

I was really hoping for a ponytail hairdo. Oh well, we have great colour schemes, at least.

A part of me was hoping Luma was going to have its colour be the same Rosalina's currently assigned dress. They look great when in a matching pair together, and it would help ease confusion in inevitable Rosalina mirror matches.

If an image isn't working, upload it onto an image hosting site. That's what I end up doing when adding new images.
Hey @Mario_and_Sonic_Guy , I Just want you to know that it was a really nice idea to update a thread about Rosalina covering every point related to her being smash.

That being said , i already gathered the info about Laura Faye Smith confirming her return as her voice , just in case you want to add some related info to that once it opens , a day before the japanese release.

Thanks for reading :colorful:

The new coverage thread will be covering Rosalina from the actual game, instead of from the demos, which is why it's closed until 9/12.

I'll be sure to add that information on the thread's opening day. Of course, depending on what events are going on in my personal life, there might be some delays, in terms of me updating the coverage information.

Ironically, the blue shorts & top Samus from Fusion was given a ponytail even though she didn't have one in Fusion's endings, while Fire Rosalina wasn't given a ponytail even though she actually had one... Ah well, beggars can't be choosers I guess.

Umm , it's not ironic when the model for Zamus in Smash always had a Ponytail ; they just didn't change it , the same case of Rosalina and Peach . They focused in the costume , not the hairstyles.

Well, I'm on the middle of the fence about Laura voicing Rosalina this time around because I really liked her work on Super Mario 3D World, but I absolutely hated her in Mario Kart 8. She sounded way too much like Peach with that "WEEEE!!". That's just NOT Rosalina. I hope she doesn't mess this one up.

Well , in her defense she is just a sweetheart! and also has a pretty voice so maybe if they add the echo , it'd get better.

Yeah, she does sounded like Peach in MK8, a little.

To be fair, Rosalina grew up alongside a bunch of star children; without her mother, Rosalina never fully matured, and as such, can still act childish at times.

Mmmm... I don't want to be mean, but I don't care about any of those fan theories. I just dislike the way she sounds in Mario Kart 8, period.
