Just stopping by to say hi.

Not really here to stay in this thread, but just checking up on old times. Lots have changed around here huh.

Whenever I play Smash, I do still play Rosalina though with a side of Corrin. (Though I play Corrin a little bit more at the moment to try to get more of a feel for her. Get her up to speed of Rosalina).

I think I ought to join this here Discord. Sounds hype. I'll probably set myself up by this Friday or something. Who better than Rosalina to practice more of and get some tips with fellow players amirite? I'd honestly say she is one of the more tricky of my mains for me to get a decent hold of besides Mega Man, who feels absolutely nothing like the rest of them. Hopefully my week turns out okay enough and all see you all at the Discord.

I haven't used Discord for a while now, maybe I will find some time to go back to Discord.

So I hear the Dsi shop is discontinued, well... I don't really care too much, cause first off, I don't have a Dsi...anymore... And second of all, I can't remember a thing about the Dsi, and I do feel sorry for those who owns it.
It's a long week, and people scarcely post here, or maybe it's the lack of Rosalina relating news. Eh, probably everyone's on Discord.

Not me , on my side.

I have another discord group which its amazing , so i thought joining the one in here would be a nice thing too.

The one in the Rosalina Social seemed to boring with locked voice channels and people only talking about smash and competitive stuff.

Really boring for me.

I've been too focused on Hyrule Warriors Legends and my New 3DS XL to really have much to say.

I haven't gone back and finished my Paper Rosalina, or the stuff on the Tennis model yet. And my Luma hasn't arrived yet.

I did get the Baby Rosalina badge in the Badge Arcade today though. Caught it on the final day too, almost completely missed it. So I'm once again up to date with my Rosalina badges.

There hasn't been much new stuff to talk about regarding official Rosalina news either. At this point I just wanna see if she's fully playable in the Wii U Rio Olympics game, though I kinda doubt it at this point. If she isn't then I st least hope the model is put to good use in the game, and I look forward to the GIFs and images. And if the model is promptly ripped, then even better.

I keep my eye out for news though so if something comes up I'll post about that.

I agree, I mean like why does it always have to be about Smash? And there's another discord group, I wonder what it's about.

In the one I created there are specific rooms to talk about smash (metagame channel) and there are several channels where you can talk about anything, even if it's not smash related so long as it's sfw :p

Yeah, but sometime people tend to speak about Smash there, but I guess you're right.
You're right that more often than not, people talk about smash but I think that's to be expected since it's a smash characters discord group, though if I were to give it a ratio I would say it's like 60% smash talk and 40% everything else :p

...And so on, it's just that. Not that I dislike the Discord, but I feel sort of lonely when other people talk about something I'm not too interested in, beside Rosalina. I should get back on the Discord since you added some few new channels. It really had been a while.

Yea you should try it out again :D I doubt you won't find several people to talk to about non smash things :)

I've been too busy these days playing through games like Fire Emblem Fates, Zelda: Twilight Princess HD, Final Fantasy VII, Metal Gear Solid V, Batman: Arkham Asylum and a **** load of other games that I've yet to start on. ****!

It is rather sad when there isn't anyone around to talk about a specific topic. If I want to bring up a Mario Kart topic, it ends up falling on deaf ears.

Hope I'll help a bit.


Personally I found that today. Seems faster than the original but that's incredible how Rosalina in the Observatory is beautiful. Remixed with Luma's theme makes it really cute, but I'd like a remix played like the original, I mean with orchestral music. The Smash remix seems like a music you'd hear during a fair and "Mini Mario & Friends challenge whatever the name is" music sounds just like Rosalina's board in MP10, with Luma's theme added.
But the dramatic part of the song would be awesome with an orchestra.
I once watched a video of the theme played on glasses, it was really beautiful.

Oh, and as I'm here, just noticed Rosalina's nail weren't polished in her Olympics' artworks. They were in Ultra Smash though. Not really logic.

I ain't a Mario Kart person anymore so there isn't anything Mario Kart related for me to talk about.

I've been playing Mario Kart 8 a bit more lately since I've been narrowing down my backlog of games (because I'm broke) mainly to get all the GP trophies, 3 Star ranks, and unlocking custom parts. I haven't gotten to 200CC yet, but I'm sure that will annihilate me when I get to it.

Other than that, there's just not much exciting Nintendo related stuff at the moment. Just passing time during a Nintendo drought (big surprise) waiting for Star Fox Zero and... yeah. Perhaps they could've spent more time filling holes in their lineup instead of hiring the uncles of random reddit and neogaf users.

Honestly, Spring has been packed for Nintendo.

Twilight Princess HD
Pokken Tournament
Hyrule Warriors Legends
FE: Fates in North America
Star Fox coming soon

And there are some other smaller treats like the Mini Mario game.

I already have Star Fox Zero + Guard preordered so I'm definitely looking forward to that.
I got no plans to get Hyrule Warriors Legends at the moment cuz I'm still playing Fire Emblem Fates.
I got no interest in Pokken Tournament because I'm not a Pokemon person anymore.
I haven't played much of Twlight Princess HD because of Final Fantasy VII, but I will get to it eventually.

On the subject of Mario Kart, someone posted a link to a fan-made Mario Kart article back at the Mario Kart general discussion thread.

http://fantendo.wikia.com/wiki/Mario_Kart_Sprint

The owner of the article did work on it hard, but I don't exactly agree with some of its contents, such as the roster choices, and the stat spread inputs; an example being King K. Rool, where I'd more portray him to have the highest speed attributes and the lowest handling attributes, along with being very heavy.

Anyway, I'd rather take the Koopalings over characters like Mr. Blizzard, Dreambert, Pauline, and Dr. Mario.

My only requests I have for Mario Kart 9 are more crossover stuff, improvments to online features, a good battle mode, and an Adventure Mode like the one in Crash Team Racing, or Sonic & All-Stars Racing Transformed.

As for characters, the only Mario characters I want are Luma, or Young Rosalina, to replace Baby Rosalina. I don't really hate Baby Rosalina but we have better options for a similar character. Paper Mario characters and what not are a pipe dream.

As for crossover stuff, Kirby at least should be added. I also think it's time for Pac-Man to be in a console Mario Kart game.

I did think of some possible guest character choices for the next Mario Kart installment, which include Kirby, Fox McCloud, Captain Falcon, and Olimar. They would be classified as DLC characters though.

Oh and also, Rosalina needs a kart or bike she can really call her own.

The closest in MK8 is the Comet, which I pair with Rosalina because of the name connection to Comet Observatory. And it looks pretty cool.

Aracde GP DX has a Kart that really feels like it's made for her but it's the only time.

She already has one, her Comet Observatory, haha!

Doesn't the blue parasol in MK8 and the blue birthday girl in MK7 count as her own kart? If she were to get a new kart or bike, it would be nice to have some shooting stars effects to make it more accurate. And, you know, starry decorations on the vehicle.

I did think of some vehicle bodies that could go well with Rosalina, such as the Warp Star (Kirby's signature vehicle body), and a bike that I've named the Twinkle Scooter (a bike body that would also work with the Luma).

As cute as it is to see Rosalina ride the Biddybuggy, seeing her use the Warp Star would better reference her cosmic attire.

As for the stats for the Warp Star and Twinkle Scooter...

Note: Values in parentheses are the in-game values, after dividing the integer values by 4.

Ground Speed: 0 (0.00)
Water Speed: 5 (1.25)
Air Speed: 4 (1.00)
Anti-Gravity Speed: 0 (0.00)
Acceleration: 7 (1.75)
Weight: 0 (0.00)
Ground Handling: 4 (1.00)
Water Handling: 5 (1.25)
Air Handling: 4 (1.00)
Anti-Gravity Handling: 3 (0.75)
Traction: 4 (1.00)
Mini-Turbo: 7 (1.75)

One has to wonder what the next gimmick will be? Regarding characters, I would want them to keep the Koopalings (read: Lemmy) and put Petey Piranha back in. I have a rather fond liking of those characters.

Regarding retro stages, I feel that MK7 had the best selection, with Kalamari Desert, Koopa Cape, and Airship Fortress. These are my favorites in their respective games, but I wouldn't mind seeing Sky Garden or especially Rosalina's Ice World return. I love the music on that course.

The main problem that I've had with Petey Piranha was how big his head is, which can be a problem if you're trying to see what's ahead. Anyway, in terms of new gimmicks, I really don't know what else can be implemented onto the series. I do know that Mario Kart DS didn't offer any new gimmicks outside of the pointless Items stat.

Didn't MKWii have the Twinkle Star bike?

Although it fit King Boo way better, it can be classified as Rosa's bike.
You're referring to the Shooting Star, right? It can be rather disturbing how North America and the PAL regions sometimes use completely different names for their contents.

Yeah, it's the Shooting Star in NTSC regions.
MKWii has many of those name differences.

It's just localisation at play.

Europe and Japan are generally considered to be more accepting of cuter things, while America prefers things that seem cool and badass.

"Shooting Star" sounds a lot cooler than "Twinkle Star". The latter just sounds cute.

It's like how they always make Kirby look like he's ready to wage war on the American box art, while he usually just looks happy and cute in the European/Japanese box art.

Uh.. I haven't play Mario Kart recently, right now I'm more on Xenoblade Chronicles.
