The question I'd like to be answered in canon is why Rosalina's watching over Mario's group before meeting them. Apart the fact they're Star Children (well, most of them), I don't see any consistant reason.This is the description of Rosalina when you see her flag in the Olympic games.

I like this description.
Toad is a sort of like a side character, and he's one of my brother's favorite Mario character, so I don't have any complain about that.I can't believe this.. Toad is SECOND?! I can't believe he's that popular despite Nintendo going crazy with Toad fever and shoving him in every single nook and cranny (I'm looking at you Color Splash).
I'm almost certain amiibo collectors (and maybe scalpers?) will just import the new amiibo from Europe to America. I live in the US and I remember a certain video game shop that had every amiibo near the front of the store. Some amiibo (like Rosalina & Luma) cost almost two to three times the regular price, it's crazy I tell you. I'm almost certain they have enough of the same amiibo in stock to sell and they are just inflating the price of certain ones to make them look rare / scarce. The fact that they have every amiibo makes me think that.If you live in Europe, you can get the new Rosalina amiibo early.

Of course they'd mention Rosalina, she's unique and amazingly popular. She's the grace in our stars, you'd have to live under a rock to not give a shout-out, right? Anyways, happy Sonic 25th Anniversary!There's a Sonic 25th Anniversary Birthday stream happening right now, from SEGA Joypolis.
When they were talking about the new Mario & Sonic game, they gave a shoutout to Rosalina as one of the highlighted new characters.

I think it was a good design decision to saturate her dress color more. It looks more appealing imo and isn't as pale as it used to be.Its funny because Rosalina's dress has been changing its shade of color when comparing Older games to newer ones.
In Mario Kart Wii , her dress is very pale like in Galaxy
Starting with Super Mario 3D World , its noticeably more green-ish , and so it is in Mario Kart 8.
Nicely done!

Wait... You need to be careful there, because someone already uploaded a Dark Blue Rosalina's dress with an exception of a few changes from yours. I'm just saying to proceed modding with caution, here's the original Dark Blue one: http://gamebanana.com/skins/145918 I may be wrong, but who knows? Aside from that, it looks very neat and well done. I like the way you placed in specific instructions so we people who mods can do it much easier, some others really don't do that.Is Rosalina's dress not blue enough for you? Well, here's something that I did up yesterday...

Then I suppose you'd prefer Rosalina's Super Mario series amiibo rather than her Smash one, like you said, it's more paler and that's what you like, I'm sure of. Honestly, I like Rosalina's pale outfit too but it seems a bit bland if we are going too pale. Having a little more blue in it gives it more feeling to it, and speaking of feelings. I happen to think all the time Rosalina was spending her days in loneliness in space before Mario meets her, she'd wear pale outfit. Now as she's joining more game, and expresses more emotions and is more happier, her clothings change from paler blue to saturated turqoise blue. Overall, it could just be the game's graphics and artwork style.I like it paler.
It looks more elegant and fitting for Rosalina as most of her colors are very light as opposed to saturated colors like the rest of the Mario cast.
The Rosalina recolor that you're talking about uses a darker shade of blue than my revision. The differences are quite noticeable if you look closely enough, and so far, no one has complained about it. My Shiny Charizard texture hack was trashed, because the hack was already submitted by someone else, and my revision was most likely considered to be inferior to what has already been uploaded as well. I'm actually quite surprised that only my Shiny Charizard hack got trashed, while my Shiny Lucario and Shiny Mewtwo texture hacks are still standing.Wait...

I've seen a good number of MMD models that have never been released to the public. And for the ones that are downloadable, they don't stay downloadable forever.But that's also one of the problems. People are keeping mods to themselves, or so I heard.
I find that mod hilarious, there's another model swap between Mac and Doc Louis and one replacing Ashley with Ness. I think that a model of Gymnast Rosalina would be on MMD soon. It's possible, and it'll take some time.I've seen a good number of MMD models that have never been released to the public. And for the ones that are downloadable, they don't stay downloadable forever.
What I do know is that pretty much anyone can pull off model swaps, so doing something like replacing Bayonetta's model with Waluigi's model really isn't a tolerable submission.
Rosalina isn't a princess because:So Rosalina IS a princess... I never expected that to be so, to be honest. I guess some of us were proven wrong. Rosalina just doesn't have the royal appearance, but if she was royalty, that means that her mother was the Queen of stars, her father would be king and her brother prince. Maybe she isn't actually a princess but is one in some kind of way, but her being a princess sounds a bit off to me. In my conclusion, I can only say that they called Rosalina and Baby Rosalina a princess so she would be matched among the other princesses. Or it's only a title held in the racing class. I don't know why I'm even pondering over this, I'm just gonna go with the flow. Call her anything you like, I'll refer to her as "Mother of the Lumas" or "Lady of the Shooting Stars". Heck, you can even call her witch. At least that's what the nerdy blue Toad in Galaxy 1 called her.
Thank you, I actually needed a recap on that. It left me wondering over what title Rosalina is to be referred to. I do try my best to not make people think that I think she is a princess, I know she's not. And your point on the past universe must've meant her concept, because that appearance before her final design striked to me as a princess also because she was originally related to Peach. I agree with that calling Rosalina a princess is cheapening, and it's not very much preferable in my taste. To be honest, I mind a bit when Rosalina gets referred to as a princess but it's just me. Just because Rosalina isn't a princess does not invalid her pairings with other princesses such as Peach and Daisy, right? They could just be the human Mario ladies. Things would be a bit different if she was a Princess, then the people would have to be the ones protecting her and she'd have guards and all that princess stuff, like Peach has Toads as guards and other royal attendants and etc. Rosalina is something more divine than just a princess, knowing she literally protects the cosmos and have powers that Peach and Daisy doesn't. Even so Rosalina is no princess, it wouldn't hurt to say she acts or dresses like one. What I really want to know is what she was, (while not being a Princess) before she encountered the first Luma.Rosalina isn't a princess because:
1) Logically, by the word's literal definition, her role in the Mario universe simply does not match it. The best you could stretch is that she was one in a past universe but she clearly is not anymore. You could also say she is a princess in a figurative sense, in that people, especially the Lumas, adore her. But even then, Rosalina is a clear mother figure to the Lumas, calling her their princess cheapens that.
2) Nintendo's UK sites (especially Play Nintendo, which is aimed at small children and simplifies everything), commonly make mistakes. The UK Mario Kart 8 website referred to Rosalina (well, specifically Baby Rosalina) as a princess too, but the Japanese site, which has the exact same layout, did not.
The only times "official" sources have ever called Rosalina a princess are those UK sites, and Sakurai casually called her one in his design pitch for Smash 4 (though he obviously learned she wasn't one by the time he made the game because she's never referred to as one in-game. In fact, they specifically avoid it by using all sorts of other words to describe her).
She really DOESN'T dress like a typical princess though.Thank you, I actually needed a recap on that. It left me wondering over what title Rosalina is to be referred to.

As far as Rosalina's titles go, it's usually just:
Aw.. You're right, I made this into a big deal again... I'm just gonna go all out and say that Rosalina is a very powerful figure, not to be messed with and that she is the carer of the universe and can command the stars at will. And on the topic of clothes changing color and well, overall clothes...@Char Seasalina
To be honest Char , i dont see the big deal
People acting like Rosalina being a princess or not is actually relevant clearly need to check themselves.
It does not matter. I wonder if people actually read books and etc to actually see portrayal of Warrior Princesses and how strong they are ; guess no.
Princess or not , 1 thing is surely true. Rosalina is being bandwagoned nowdays with the common duo Peach-Daisy , who have always been together ever since the latter came back in Mario Tennis.
Before Rosalina was in her own side , like in Mario Kart Wii and 7 , now suddenly she is placed After Peach and Daisy like in Mario Kart 8 , which is 1 of the main reasons why people seem to assume all 3 are princesses , that and the obvious Crown is Rosies pretty big head.
Conclusion : Nobody really cares and nobody Needs to , but if you happen to care then proper research should be taken instead of assuming being from a royal place means you are dependent or ''weak''. I have seen in many other media , so it gets old already , not so much from here i guess , but from other places
What i find funny in this subject , is that this is yet another case of people constantly comparing Rosalina to Peach.
Im sooooo tired of it , even Nintendo does it all the time , same with Daisy ; Both are always compared to Peach , it gets so tiring because they are very different from one another.
I get tired of this subject because its so irrelevant when its transformed into a heavy subject , when its really not.
The Rosalina color change in her gown seemed more interesting than this.
These outfits are so fancy and adorable, as much as the models. Rosalina wears more of a sleeping gown since the maternity gown is what Elsa wears. To be blunt, every character is unique in their own ways each variation. Peach and Daisy has those panniers and hoopskirt that show how dignified they are while Rosalina on the other hands display a majestic position even in a nightgown. And Pauline wears what seems like a red carpet dress.She really DOESN'T dress like a typical princess though.
Peach and Daisy where Victorian, Old English dresses. Especially noticeable with Smash Peach.

Rosalina's outfit is sort of a cross between a sleeping gown and a maternity gown.
As far as Rosalina's titles go, it's usually just:
-Watcher/Protector/Guardian of the Cosmos
-Mother of the Lumas
-"A mysterious woman"
-Keeper of the Comet Observatory
-The Cosmic Spirit (which literally means "god")
No , im not saying you made it a big deal. My point is simply that its not worth to beat this dead horse because it doesnt really matter and people pretending that it actually does its just stupid as it can be.Aw.. You're right, I made this into a big deal again... I'm just gonna go all out and say that Rosalina is a very powerful figure, not to be messed with and that she is the carer of the universe and can command the stars at will. And on the topic of clothes changing color and well, overall clothes...

But no one can beat the originals. Mercede Rose was the first person to voice Rosalina, but we'd wonder how that'll sound without the filter. Out of all the other characters, Rosalina sounds good with a deep voice still keeping the beauty of it's feminine sound. The voice that fits for Rosalina, and doesn't sound too much like anyone else, Rosalina would be a character that has a strong voice with beauty and allure. I agree with you on like all 3 actresses, I don't think they should be shamed because they made an effort of voicing the character with some good and some bad.While I like all of Rosalina's voice actresses, I think Laura is objectively the best one because she's shown the most range.
I wish they still used the echo on her, and I was a bit iffy on her Mario Party 10 performance (though that wasn't her fault because the way that game used Rosalina in general was iffy to me), but objectively speaking, she's done the most different kinds of games, leading to more kinds of voice clips, and I think she has more actual lines than the other two as opposed to random yelps and grunts. I'll also admit she gives Rosalina a bit of a sexy, sassy edge for the multiplayer games like Mario Kart, which I think fits her really well and is a great way to expand on Rosalina's character.
