This comic strip is so adorable it justifies Baby Rosalina's existence for me.

Not really... At least for me. Baby Rosalina is adorable, but as you see in this comic, Lumas mistake her as their mama, whereas Baby Rosalina didn't know them at all.

Place seems inactive so I'm gonna have to double post.

Here are Rosalina and Baby Rosalina's title screens in MK8 Deluxe. Good wallpaper material.

 

[Char Seasalina]

There's also a video for it, and some of Rosalina's voice clips for the adult Rosalina.

It feels like forever since we've seen Rosalina actually in space with the exception of the Rainbow Roads.

Meanwhile, I've been checking up on the stat changes in Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, and unfortunately, they're less balanced than how Mario Kart 8 handled the character stats.

In fact, my favorite combo got hit in that the speed and weight stats got nerfed, while the handling and traction stats got buffed. Acceleration did not change at all, so it would be extremely criminal if acceleration tiers still exist.

You probably know already but acceleration tiers don't exist now. Not in the same way as before at least.

For example, 3.00, 3.25, 3.50, & 3.75 are now all different. Same with all of the other numbers.

This video showcases the acceleration differences, but the person who did the tests failed to mention if they're for 150cc or 200cc. Also, now that the gliders that boost acceleration also weaken the ground speed stat, there can be a margin of error if you can't find a way to test two or more combos with the same speed, but different acceleration values.

On a side note, a user who goes by the name of Mister Wu does keep track of the Mario Kart mechanics.

The artist who works on Skullgirls and artwork drew Rosalina during Mario Kart 8 Deluxe release.

If someone ever wondered how would it be if Laura's voice was used in Golf , now you can listen.

It turned out great in my opinion , i was lucky to get a Eagle so i could showcase all the animations.

I feel like this should have been the original in the actual game.

Much like how people started looking up Pokémon pr0nz when Pokémon GO came out, MK8 Deluxe has apparently had the same effect.

Rosalina is apparently "high on the list".

Oh my

 

[NintenRob]

Urrr OK then

I just found out about a piece of Rosalina merchandise that released last year that I somehow never heard of until yesterday. Already bought one.

That's amazing

If only Rosalina was wearing her dress, instead of the biker suit...

Don't know who Cynthia is but that pic is boss. <3

 

[Swiftie_Muggle]

Cynthia from pokemon.

Her complexion is a bit similar to Rosalina.

 

[ChikoLad]

The artist made a standalone version of Rosalina.

All of Rosalina's voice clips from the Sports Supestars game.

If anyone remembers the Grand Star icon that I made for Smash Wii U, someone managed to make a results screen variation of the icon for me earlier.

That's really awesome. A lot of fan art like to exaggerate features but this one looks spectacular and beautiful.

Most artist have their own artstyle, you can't blame them for that.
This artist though seems to have its own artstyle with artstyle that are original but it a more bright color.

I've ordered one thanks to you. It seems like she's pretty rare as the different prices on Amazon shows... and the fact that in Toys"R"Us's website, it's sold out.

I made that video thinking about what you said , so feel free to use the sounds you needed.

Oh yeah, I completely forgot that Nintendo and Camelot was recycling in this game. Thanks.

So I'm making a start at getting into MK8 modding. I made a simple texture mod for Rosalina.

I never liked how they just recoloured Peach's biker suit texture for Daisy and Rosalina, mainly because I think the love heart logo on the back just doesn't suit Daisy and Rosalina (maybe Daisy a bit, but definitely not Rosalina). So I changed Rosalina's to a Grand Star. I might do a few more tweaks to this one, then when I have all of the kinks worked out, I'll change Daisy's.

 

[Swiftie_Muggle]

You should have make it like the heart but with a star instead. That one doesn't look that good imo.

 

[Mario & Sonic Guy]

I never did get into Mario Kart 8 hacking. I guess the one problem is figuring out which files control the character and vehicle stats.

On the other hand, modifying the stats can potentially mess up your time trial records and highlight reels.

 

[Swiftie_Muggle]

Voice mods and texture hacks though...

The star would be better blue.

 

[ChikoLad]

I improved it a little. Added a stroke to the Grand Star so it now matches the logo on her vehicles.

I'll probably make a version where it's turquoise soon. Right now, I have a more interesting texture mod I want to tackle for her.

 

[Swiftie_Muggle]

That looks better.

I'm sticking with the heart though. That's not exclusive to Peach and it looks like a nice touch in the back.

If i ever start the modding (soon because i have some special files now) i would make Rosalina's main textures (dress) less saturated and more blue-ish like in SMG. I don't like the excesive saturation in MK8 and 3DWorld.

EDIT:

Bye bye yelling Rosalina , Hello Rosalina.

I was able to give Rosalina her 3D World voice clips back.

No more unfitting sounds , it's all perfect now.

 

[ChikoLad]

When you're trying to enjoy a good kart race but you suddenly realise you were programmed with the most tragic backstory in the game.

 

[Mario & Sonic Guy]

That face does creep me out. Definitely one of the least appealing Rosalina merchandises out there.

 

[Swiftie_Muggle]

looks like a bootleg.

Quite unpleasant i must say.

 

[TheBeardedPunisher]

Happy Rosalina's Day-er, Mother's Day rather!

 

[Swiftie_Muggle]

Finally gave Rosalina the voice she deserves. Also made a texture hack for the Cat cruiser to match Cat Rosalina and the Sports bike has a Varnish i call Galaxy Air.

 

[ChikoLad]

I was doing some races and looking at the replays and though the way the light shone off her here looked pretty.

 

[Tino]

Happy Rosalina's Day-er, Mother's Day rather!

No, that's okay.
It's Rosalina AND Mother's Day to me!
