I'd say these are the 3 most popular characters of the Mario series.
Do you consider Luigi, Yoshi, and Rosalina overrated?

No to all 3 of them. Yoshi is NOT overrated at all, where'd you get that from? Rosalina nor Luigi are overrated either.
Luigi was popular long before then. It was most likely his exclusion from the original Super Mario 64 that did the trick.YoshiGo99 said:
Rosalina is overrated. The other two are not.

Rosalina is overrated. She's going to take over the world!
The other two are okay. Luigi and Yoshi are already popular since the 90s.

My only gripe with these three (in terms of popularity and overratedness) is Rosalina. By miles.

No, No, Yes.
I like Rosalina but she's a bit overrated.

Rosalina isn't overrated, they just don't know how to utilize her as a character properly.
As far as I understand, Rosalina's popularity came from what she added to Super Mario Galaxy. She shines as an actual defined character in an ocean of cardboard cut-outs. However, she keeps getting shoveled into games after games while having nothing of value to contribute to them. That is a mistake, because that is not what she was designed for. It makes her continued appearance feel like some tacked on gimmick instead of a wholesome, integrated part of the game. That's why when she's in a game, it feels dumb and forced.
In my opinion, Rosalina would be best off not appearing in any more Mario titles unless the premise or concept explicitely calls for her. She works best as a distant, enigmatic overseer of cosmic events, not a personality-less foot soldier concerning herself with the frequently recurring need to rescue Bowser's prisoner of the week.
That's the work of a plumber, not a pseudo-goddess.

Very well said.
Though I'd be lying if I said I wasn't excited to see her in Smash Bros.
