Personally, I like galaxy Rosalina’s voice the best. She’s designed to be this calm and spiritual space princess and her voice in that game fits perfectly. It just doesn’t feel right that Rosalina has a more energetic personality in newer games when she was never designed to be that way so her newer voices just don’t fit her imo. No hate towards those voice actresses but I prefer the old one
-
The most horrifying part is the realization that Galaxy was 2007.... 😧
-
I would personally say that I like the Mario Galaxy voice the most… it just fits Rosalina’s character the best, and it has the most noticeable echo effect to it which just makes it all the more impactful
-
Unrelated about Laura Faye Smith but she has wonderful penmanship; when I met her at a convention and asked her to sign my Rosalina amiibo, she was able to sign her name in very clear cursive on that tiny amiibo base and even drew a little Luma. Also she's a very nice and plesant lady.
-
It honestly still surprises me that Rosalina’s had 3 different voices in such a short time.
-
Whoever messed up those credits needs to be fired. How the heck does it happen 3 times?!
-
my headcanon? as she spent more time in the mushroom kingdom and visited earth more often than she used to, Peach and Daisy's bubbly personalities rubbed off on Rosalina, thus breaking her out of her shell more and making her voice more peppy :)
-
I've always seen the voice changes as being representative of her becoming happier after becoming friends with Mario & co
-
You know it's a great day when a new Thomas Game Docs Video drops
-
Funfact: Mario Tennis Aces uses Kerri Kane’s voice in her entrance cutscene & Laura when you play her. It’s sooo bizarre lol
-
honestly Mercedes Rose was iconic, no idea why Nintendo didn't bring her back!
-
as someone who always gets their names spelled wrong, and it's especially heartbreaking when it's something important and permanent, I would be absolutely heartbroken if I achieved the dream of being in a Nintendo game and my name was spelled wrong in the credits...
-
I kind of like how Rosalina's voice gets slightly more excitable and cheerful with each actress. She started out as quiet, echoey, and a bit sad, but as this Cosmic Queen participated in more Mario Spin-offs and games as a whole, she got more happy to revist these games over the years with her newfound friends. I get why some prefer her voice in Galaxy, but if you ask me, the actress changing gave Rosalina some surprisingly impressive character development.
-
the only issue i have is that they removed the echo from her voice. as a sad and lonely space princess the echo made so much sense 😞
-
Rosalina hit puberty
-
Wario’s voice video has just GOT to be next…! The wait’s been LONG overdue.!.!
-
I will always have a soft spot for Rose's voice clips for Mario Kart Wii. It has a tone of "introvert coming out of her shell and having some fun!"
-
FUN FACT: Unlike Mercedes Rose and Kerri Kane's Rosalina voices, Laura Faye Smith's Rosalina voice doesn't have an echo effect.
-
Unpopular opinion, but i like more Laura's Rosalina. She sounds so happy and adventurous.
-
Tbh I think each voice fits her for every setting and they sound pretty similar in tone even if the intonation is different, the thing I really miss is the echo that makes her sound like a giant space Princess.
