Me? Im resting a painkiller before going back to the commissions grind.

At least Im getting paid, cant complain about that.

Well anon? Did you enjoy her first and last role in an RPG?

>>507140090
Maybe someone can help me understand, but I never really got why people were so enamored with her. Everyone defaults to the whole storybook thing, but that's describing a past Rosalina, not the present one. The current one just sort of exists and has nothing interesting to do or say. Peach and Daisy have their own unique flares to them, and even Pauline has been getting more time in the spotlight in recent years. What does Rosalina offer? I'm not asking this to be mean, I genuinely want to understand.

>>507141096

Why do some people keep spewing backwards logic like this. Your past is a part of your character, even the present one cares for her lumas and works with mario to reunite him to his loved ones by any means necessary.

I also lost count of how many times twittards accused me for wanting her to ""stay depressed and lonely"" just because I found her boring in spinoffs. The strawmanning is real.

>>507141887
>she's a female
So are the other girls. Difference is that I could tell what those girls' gimmick or "thing" is just by seeing them in party games. Yet and ISTG I could never figure out what Rosalina's thing is supposed to be. Her new voice doesn't help.

>>507143098
Almost like her present "character" doesn't compare to her storybook self at all. If she debuted without a backstory and without that "quiet mom" persona then maybe she wouldn't be that jarring to see in spinoffs.


>Storybook Rosalina is Koizumi's Rosalina
>Modern Rosalina is Miyamoto's Rosalina
>Guess which one was liked more

It's hilarious how much Daisyfags hate Rosalina.

>>507151425
Like most of these shitposters, it's all based on jealousy. Daisy will never get something like the storybook that'll make her loved and more than just orange Peach, so they take out their frustrations on Rosalina.

>>507151425
Please get out of here with that bait nonsense, or is this the part where you start arguing with yourself to try and spin a narrative?

>>507151840
It's always Daisyfags when it comes to the seething hatred of Rosalina that comes from some anons. Normal people don't think twice about Rosalina not having a story in the spin offs, but when they need to put Rosalina down it's suddenly a bad thing when it's not like any other character has one either.

>>507152241
It is weird how it's always focused on Rosalina.

>>507152241
I've never seen this phenomenon of Daisy fans hating on Rosalina, but I guess I just haven't been here long enough. I don't doubt such people exist, but I haven't seen enough of it to assume most of them feel that way.

>>507151425
Rosalinakek..

Maybe if your character didn't become washed out and boring after Galaxy 1 and had it not be for Nintendo removing her interesting points, people would've liked her and not feel like she's forced down people's throats.

>>507153104
>That said I genuinely like Rosie,
They're not like you who has a seething hatred of Rosalina, for at her worst being at the same level as Peach and Daisy. That's why you can tell that the hatred is always motivated by something outside of Rosalina herself, because if you hate Rosalina for not having a story in every game that she's in, you should hate every Mario character who's just there to fill up space on a roster.

>>507153050
So how would you keep Rosalina's "interesting points" in the context of a Mario sports or party game where it's pretty much just gameplay?

>>507155580
Smash fanbase is the ultimate crossover of all of the worst people from every other fanbase, so I'm not surprised stuff like that exists, but it's hardly proof of a grander problem like you're implying. Also there was an anon in this general who straight up admitted he wanted to make fans of Daisy look bad, so there's that to consider. It's very possible you saw posts from that anon making deliberately inflammatory posts about Rosalina just to stir shit. Or maybe it really was a genuine Daisy fan spewing vitriol for whatever fucking reasons. Who fucking knows? Everyone is anonymous and it's borderline impossible to pinpoint who's saying what.

>>507156761
Motivation is where I think it's likely to be (most likely) Daisyfags. There wasn't an insignificant amount of people back when Rosalina was getting things like being in 3D World or Smash that were annoyed that she was getting into games, and not their favorite characters like Daisy, Wario or Waluigi. It's that grudge from Rosalina being in the right place at the right time that makes certain types hate her.

>>507157883
Well let's try to put the shoe on the other foot for a bit here. Daisy, Wario and Waluigi have been around far longer than Rosalina, so is it really a surprise that fans of those characters would develop a sort of bitterness towards someone much newer who's also getting all these more significant roles in mainline games? I mean just look at what DK fans have to put up with, since we're on the subject.

>>507158296
It's not surprising, but it's not warranted. Wario has had multiple spin off series along with not having a reason to feel Smash envy, and Daisy (in her modern incarnation) and Waluigi only debuted in 2000 compared to Rosalina in 2007, which isn't that long really. Combine that with Daisy getting her Smash fighter and appearing in Wonder and they have no reason to hold a grudge despite them still doing so even now.

>>507159140
I mean I agree that taking the anger out on fans of other characters is stupid. If anything, they should be going after Nintendo for that. I'm just saying it's not hard to see why a fan might develop a complex over having their favorite character essentially ignored or treated as lesser.

>>507159324
The problem is that they never really were aside from arguably Waluigi. In some ways, Rosalina got cucked more than they did. Rosalina got an early Smash appearance and appeared in mainline a couple of times, but when she first debuted she got near consistently cucked out of the spin offs with the exception being Mario Kart.
It took until Mario Party 10 for her to be playable, missing out on Mario Party 9 and Island Tour. She was cucked out of Mario Tennis on the 3DS, was only DLC in Golf 3DS, wasn't included in Strikers until the Switch, and has been cucked out of Mario and Sonic outside of single events in Rio and Tokyo.
It's not very justifiable grudge because it's a kneejerk looking at her bigger appearances and ignoring how she was left out of a lot of games.

>>507156761
I like Cloud and Mario being friends.

>>507113052

i wish they did more with the dreamworld though, like the luiginary mechanics are cool but the worlds themselves aren't that interesting except dream's deep. why didn't antasma try to awaken the darkness within luigi in his dreams? for two games now (three if you count brawl) they've hinted at this yet nothing? bowser was right, he really is an idiot who couldn't match up to him if his first idea was basically shadow queen mkii. speaking of bowser, why didn't broque monsieur invite him to the island?

Luigi's cowardice stems from repressed trauma he experienced when he was kidnapped as a baby.

Several, let me go by characters.
>Mario: Selfless to a fault. Loves being dependable even if it means he is overworking himself. His biggest fear is letting people down. Has a love-hate relationship with his life prior to living in the Mushroom Kingdom.
>Luigi: Jack of All Trades when it comes to hobbies, always doing something creative. His favorite hobbies are tabletop games, papercrafts and gardening. Doesn't mind being Mario's shadow, but loathes not being acknowledged.
>Peach: Chronic daydreamer. Constantly loses herself in her thoughts at random intervals. Very utopic and optimistic in mindset, almost to a fault. Adamantly believes Bowser will have a change of heart eventually.
>Daisy: Thrill seeker by nature. Can't stand staying still for too long and boredom is the bane of her existence. Often keeps herself busy with gardening and exercise/sports. Kind of terrified of Rosalina.
>Rosalina: Adores children with a might and will do anything to make them happy, even dressing herself as a clown and make puppet shows. Master of lots of different musical instruments, but lost motivation to play them a long time ago.
>Pauline: Constantly gets tormented by her past and uses Mario as a mean to make up to her phantoms. Has a degree in laws. Still has feelings for Mario. Current in-universe Donkey Kong World Record holder.
>Bowser: Knows how to deliver harsh love to his minions and they like it. Believes himself to be smarter than he is. A bit of Tsundere. Likes to spoil Junior even at the expenses of his army.
>Wario: Loves treasure hunting for the sole purpose of acquiring things he likes, regardless of value. Empirical mechanic, learned through trial and error, really good at it. Genuinely doesn't care about women.
>Waluigi: Ladies man wannabee. Huge narcissist that often projects his flaws onto others. Wants to learn arts solely for the purpose of getting money, fame and women. Refers to himself in third person almost exclusively.

I feel like some of these are already canon.

so i'm replaying bis but since my circle pad and a button are inconsistent i'm emulating it on melonds but the screen transitions are taking forever. how do i fix this? there's someone else who also had this issue and he fixed it with a line of code but what do i do with it? i put it at the end of the toml file but nothing happened except my settings got reset. tried desmume and the screen transitions are normal but the filter looks like ass compared to melonds's even though they have more of them.

A lot of people accostumed to 2D Mario games found SM64 "intimidating" back in the day which is why 2D games were brought back years later.

>>507359517
The Power Stars and Shines like Power Moons originated from rocks that came from space akin Moon Rocks, this is supported by Cappy thinking that the Power Stars in Mushroom Kingdom are just Power Moons with a different shape.

>>507399961
And nowadays it's almost a hard rule that 3D sells better than 2D. I wonder what changed.

>>507400314
It's literally just 2D being perceived as primitive and inferior by the dull-witted masses.

It really isn't considering 2D games sell consistently well, 3D games sell better only when there's no alternative.

Sonic 3D's games are shat on a lot, through.

>>507403106
Huh, Mario general?
>>The first 3D-plane Kirby is the best-selling in the series
That's because Kirby's games sales are rising overall. The best selling Kirby game was the very first one(now on second place), the third best selling one is the one that came right before the 3D one.
>>Odyssey easily sold better than Wonder and Mario Maker 2, which never would've happened during the Wii days
Mario Maker isn't a normal 2D Mario by any means and Wonder came out 6 years later.
>>3D Zelda sells way, way better than 2D Zelda now
Which has always been the case and "2D Zelda" hasn't existed for decades now.
>>3D Sonic sells better, Superstars flopped and Mania only sold a million
Sonic's sales are all over the place and quality-wise they are nowhere near as consistent as Mario let alone Kirby.
>>Metroid Prime 4 will (probably) outsell Dread and Prime 1 was the best-selling game in the series before it
That's said about every other Metroid.

What's your favorite Mario Kart game and what do you like about it?

>>507412835
frontiers got some mixed reception that leaned positive and shadow gens was universally praised

>>507452664
Dont have one favorite. My favorites are:
>Mario Kart 64
Good tracks and, even though only 8 characters, they were good choices.. It also had the best battle mode.
>Mario Kart Double Dash
Really liked the idea of having two drivers so i dont need to just pick one
>Mario Kart Wii
Good character roster, generally just good gameplay

Mario Kart 7: Best overall tracks, most balanced when it comes to weight classes, you can make your own Cup with your four favorite tracks in the order you want, your driving style will affect your Streetpassed Mii's CPU, beating all Expert Staff Ghosts with Luigi (who is a middle weight compared to the lighter and heavier characters exceling at water and ground driving respectively) is the most fun I've ever had with Time Trials in a Mario Kart. Also has my favorite Bowser's Castle.

Here's my Streetpass Cup & Mii stats:
1. Wario Shipyard/Wario's Galleon (Star Cup)
2. Neo Bowser City/Koopa City (Star Cup)
3. Bowser's Castle (Special Cup)
4. SNES Rainbow Road (Lightning Cup)

Mii Title: Star Racer
Chassis: Pipe Frame
Wheels: Wooden, Slim, or Slick
Glider: Beast Glider

Thoughts on snow/ice levels throughout the Mario games on this cozy Christmas Eve? Are they a level theme you look forward to in the platformers? How about snow areas in the RPGs?

>>507446358
Also in Japan they had to deal with chip shortages making it difficult for them to have more carts at launch.
>>507453123
But those are a dime a dozen overall even if they're on a good streak, Forces was panned while Mania was being praised everywhere and even games like Colors which were generally well received were still divisive.

>>507471857
Depends, slippery platforms can be annoying but Mario games are generally lenient with her. The recent Mario games had some nice snow/ice areas.

I'd beg to differ kek, but that screenshot is interesting. I always thought Peach would be, out of the main cast, one of the weakest vidya players followed by Bowser. I dont see her making it out of Easy Modo without exhausting all Continues.
Similarly, I think both Mario and Pauline would be on a league of their own in skill, being only rivaled by each other.

What's with retards and suddenly comparing Sonic 3 movie with fucking Mario 1 movie?

>>507656046
They're both movies using video game IPs and the usual Mario vs Sonic shitflinging.

>>507656046
The thing that pisses me off is that the comparison are disingenuous as all hell, as if a single movie that is mostly setting up the world can be compared to the third movie in a damn trilogy
Like yeah no fucking shit Sonic 3 is better than Mario 1

>>507657435
Typically the first movie in a trilogy is the best one. So if Sonic 3 is better than Mario 1, then Mario is never going to be better than Sonic in the movies.

Absolutely based.

Christmas sales for Jamboree and Brothership are looking great, I see.

>>507674082
Xenoblade X DE should’ve released in December, since the wind blows hard in December….

>>507674793
Why? Between Brothership, Jamboree, and Echoes of Wisdom, we already have a good holiday lineup.

>>507678623
I didn’t buy any of those games, and Nintendo’s lack of a December release is quite noteworthy, almost like they deemed DKCR HD not worthy of the holiday release slot

>>507685467
Jamboree is right there.

>>507638276
Mario Wonder standees already exist though.
They're just a pain in the ass to find.

>>507685547
Saving for Switch 2 launch and Xenoblade X DE, didn’t feel like I needed or was going to play Jamboree or Brothership or Wisdom

>Super Rush
I tend to use Maple, Bowser Jr. with Super POW Woods and Irons, and Paratroopa in 64, TT, and WT respectively. Straight shots make for easy chip-ins. If I'm tryharding then Bowser.

You are delusional and don't know movie history. Even Sonic 1 mostly said to be the worst out of the 3, and Sonic 3 still has a lot of pacing issues people are noticing, especially at the end.
