post any random Mario thought on your mind

[Magikrazy]

The japanese Nintendo site for Mario has a section for characters

https://www.nintendo.co.jp/character/mario/characters/index.html

i would assume this are the characters considered most recurring, rather than main seeing Waluigi in there.

hopefuly the descriptions get translated so i can read Rosalina's, even if the audio samples that they used in her page almost make me vomit.

google translate to the rescue (kinda sorta, not really)

Ehhh the ''roster'' is basically 3D World stuff. Plus Mario/Luigi power ups.

i can take it. Only relevant characters are on that either way.

You're always satisfied with the roster, because Rosalina is in the game.
(Hold on... unlocked by clearing ★World 2-Fortress. Was she "rescued"? Is she a bonus "damsel-in-distress" in this game?)

At least Yoshi and other colour species are in the roster, + "winged" versions.

That got me thinking of my headcanon.

"Off-screen, Bowser ordered four of his minions, uh...
*checks MarioWiki*
...Dry Bones, Bony Beetle, Purple Coin Coffer and Boom Boom,
to kidnap Rosalina an lock her in the fortress in ★World 2."

 

[Julia-BM]

I know there probably won't be a Mario and Sonic at the Olympic Winter Games PyeongChang 2018, but;

Another Mario and Sonic at the Olympic Games title for Nintendo Switch would make great use of the Nintendo Switch's joy-cons, especially the motion controls and HD rumble. Now wouldn't that be the most immersive installment in the series, if it became a real game?

 

[zel]

not enough waluigi fan art shows off how flexible he is
i mean do you expect a regular human doing this pose? which limb is which? are his legs bent backwards?? im confused

Waluigi confirmed as contortionist.

Glad you understand my mind set

And i never thought about that, i see Rosalina more as a reward to be able to continue rather than a plotline like Peach.

You see, World Star 3 onwards is HELL. Rosalina actually makes it beareable to an extend since her skill is god sent (can move any orb freely for 10 seconds).

Super Rosalina should still be better though.

 

[MnSG]

Super Rosalina should still be better though.

Super Rosalina doesn't get the same Skill as Rosalina though, and her Helper Skill is only really effective in Heartless Courses that utilize all 5 Orb attributes; using her in Normal Courses is far more difficult, due to the presence of Heart Orbs.

 

[winstein]

In Puzzle & Dragons: Super Mario Bros. Edition, I hardly used Rosalina and her Super counterpart because her ability is difficult to take advantage of. Basically you need to make matches with 4 attributes and 5 attributes respectively in a go to get the bonus (which is powerful I admit). In levels with 4 attributes, the Winged Yoshis are much better because they have a larger power multiplier than Rosalina. I think I might have used regular Rosalina before since that one is easier to use for levels with 5 attributes, but I don't remember.

Luigi is another character I never used unless required (such as the beginning of the game) because I just wanted to play the game with Mario and other non-Luigi characters, even though including Luigi would have made the battles easier. The only time Luigi is "included" is the Score Attack mode, since Luigi is found on most fixed teams.

In terms of characters I use besides Mario (who is always the lead), I like to use Yoshis/Winged Yoshis since their abilities are easy to take advantage of, and Bowser because Bowser's ability is combo-oriented, which is something I am typically gunning for (and works incredibly well in a 3-coloured area since Bowser is not dependent on different attributes to activate his abilities. Peach is occasionally used as her ability has immediate power, provided no damage is taken.

Puzzle and Dragons Mario seems like someone on the forums picked the roster of characters.

I guess you can put it that way, but given the set up they are going for here, I think it's not without reason. After all, you are going on an adventure with Mario (and Luigi) in a traditional Super Mario Bros. setting, so one way to spice up the variety is to include different forms of Mario instead of making different characters.

With that said, I think I would prefer if the next Mario-flavoured Puzzle and Dragons crossover made it more similar to the original in which any character can be a leader, along with the fact that you can choose any character without the "two powerful characters" restriction.

Thank you for reading.

 

[Pink Cat]

I'm kinda disappointed that Tamadra basically just there as far as the game goes, it would be a neat nod for the PAD fans if they were unlockable

 

[Starlight24]

Well if paired with a correct set of allies and leaders , Super Rosalina is very useful actually.

Super Rosalina makes all the orbs into each type of orbs sans heart ones.

This skill is actually useful in every course because even if you are in a normal or heartless course the set you get isnt always guaranteed to do multiple element combos.

However if you use Super Rosalina, she will always give you a set of at least 3 orbs of each element that makes you do ''rainbow'' combos.

Paired with a high level Boo Luigi, who lets you move orbs freely for 5 seconds , makes the combination up to at least 6+ combos which is a lot if you have a high level team (and you should have either way since at some point in Star Worlds you would need an almost maxed out team up to 99 to actually pass the levels.)

Right now i unlocked Super Rosalina and maxed her out up to 94.

 

[MnSG]

Unfortunately, some of the star world courses are so tough that you literally need to have Cat Luigi AND Super Rosalina as your leader and helper to get through the Heartless Courses that use all the Orb attributes. That 30.25x multiplier can potentially make or break a course playthrough.

Yes, this is exactly what i have been doing. Boo Luigi and Rosalina took me to Star World 5.

Super Rosalina is better for World 6 onwards plus Cat Luigi if used correctly.

 

[MnSG]

It's too bad that Boomerang Mario and Boomerang Luigi can only be unlocked by getting a perfect ranking in Score Attack's 5th course in the Fixed and Free challenges. Their Leader/Helper Skill is designed specifically for Normal Courses, since clearing Heart Orbs actually helps to increase the damage multiplier further.

Courtesy of 2257, we have the translation!

One note: as 2257 noted, the bios of Toad, Yoshi and Boo don't use pronouns so they can be referred to a single character or multiple ones.
For simplicity and consistency with how NOA typically handles this, I'll leave these three translations referred to a single character - they surely make sense like that, after all.

I asked 2257 to translate both the old bio of Mario and the new one since there has indeed been a correction on the third line, and I think it's very neat to document it - I've rarely seen Nintendo review a bio to fix a controversial depiction, which is still happily displayed since two years ago on the Kids section of Nintendo site.

 

[Starlight24]

That's so cool thanks.

Im still waiting the sounds they use for Rosalina actually match that bio.

That ''yes'' is a giving me nightmares ... nightmares of MK8 and Peach clones.

 

[Pink Cat]

Mario Wonder Balls are coming!
I remember these things, I thought they went the way of the Kinder Eggs and got banned from the United States forever

 

[Time Turner]

hold up, those are the Super Mario Challenge Coins

 

[Starlight24]

i have been playing Star Rush and luckily i got Rosalina on the very first turn and she was never stolen by one of those nasty Toads landing in the same space as me. Geez

Also on the last turn , i was so close to Bowser ... i felt violated.

it was so funny because he was the final boss and he always has something bad happen to the player that is too far aways from him.

Me (Rosalina obviously) landed on the space while the Blue toad did the same. However the green toad and the Yoshi where 1 space away and got roasted.

My team was actually Toad, Rosalina, Daisy , Toadette and i traded Wario for Luigi because Wario kinda sucks.

-------------------------------------

Also, as suggested by BabyLuigi, i played SSS Tennis against star Diddy Kong on Ace difficulty on the clay court ... it was a very tough match but the results don't lie.

i admit i got my ass beat the very first time but the second and third time i got revenge.

Finally i got Super Rosalina and i couldnt be happier, she makes the star courses and boss fights sweeter thanks to her rainbow combo skill.

Gotta clap for myself for doing that much on all of these above

I wonder what technique you used to beat him.

Rosalina plays differently than Baby Luigi, so she has different strengths. For me, I pretty much had to lob him, wait until he smashes the ball, then smash him immediately back.
