DO you REALLY need to ask?

Rosalina, because:
1) She is actually capable.
2) She does things apart from being kidnapped.
3) She has an actual backstory
4) Peach and Daisy are fucking peasants next to a queen.

Daisy, I like girlish tomboys, Rosalina is terrible and Peach is emotionally unstable like in a constant state of Stockholm syndrome, she can easily fuck Bowser over with PMS and mood swings but never uses these against him in the main games.

This one.

She first appeared in Super Mario Galaxy. Bassically the milf princessqueen. Does not get kidnapped.

Since then she appeared as a playable character in multiple games including Super Mario 3D World, as well as upcomming Super Smash Bros 4 and Mario Kart 8.

By now pretty much no one knows Daisy.

Rosalina isn't a princess, and Peach is better than Daisy because she's actually a major character. Other than Super Mario Land for the original Gameboy, Daisy has only ever been in spin-offs.

Peach has powers too, in fact she has more powers than Rosalina. Have you never played Super Mario RPG, Paper Mario, Super Paper Mario, or Super Princess Peach she has all kinds of powers in those games? Then there's also the fact that she beat Zelda in a death battle, she's a top tier character in Super Smash Bros Melee, and she can float in Super Mario Bros 2 effectively making her the most unique character in the game. All Rosalina can do is jump as high as Luigi and use a spin-attack that she loses whenever she gets any power-up other than a super mushroom or a star man.

Sure that's why in Mario Galaxy she was just as helpless against Bowser as Peach was and had to rely on Mario and Luigi to protect the galaxy for her, which is supposed to be her job.

ANd if you paid attention to ANYTHING that was going on it was pretty much stated that Rosalina could as well go and wtfstomp Bowser herself if she wanted but she had to deal with far more important shit like the whole galaxy and the whole Luma stuff.
So while plumber peasants deal with those problems, The Queen actually handles more important matters.

Since, you know, unlike Daisy and Peach, who have spent time partying, she has a whole GALAXY to handle.

Are you really trying to use Super Smash Bros in your argument? Might as well include Brawl's Subspace Emissary while we're at it.

Pretty sure you can only play as either Mario or Luigi in SMB2. Edit: Seems like I was wrong. I thought you were referring to Lost Levels, my bad.

And don't forget that Rosalina controls entire stars and galaxies as well as all those Lumas and the entire Starship. Although we may be talking about entirely different games here, last time I recall I don't think Rosalina was playable in either Galaxy game.

She couldn't do shit, her observatory couldn't even fly because Bowser stole her Grand Stars.
@MC-sama: There is no official canon for the Mario series, so everything is fair game although I do think it's worth noting that Luigi's Mansion mentions events from Paper Mario so, that's a thing it kinda seems like they tried to have a canon during the N64 and Gamecube eras, but then stopped caring after Mario Sunshine, and Rosalina doesn't "control" anything, she's an overseer/caretaker there's a huge difference. She's basically like Kami on Dragon Ball. Anyway just to clarify, I do think Rosie is an awesome character, but my original point still stands that she is not a princess therefore making Peach the best princess because Daisy is lame, Wario is the only cool character to come out of the Super Mario Land series. Oh and Rosalina is playable in Super Mario 3D World, but she's not all that useful, in fact pretty much every character sucks compared to Luigi.

She's about as useful as the other royal members of the Mario universe, sitting atop her large structure and letting a plumber fix the pipes.

Which is actually explained in her backstory in galaxy - she has far more important and crucial things to do than go around fixing problems peasants can fix. And she has no problems being useful in 3D World or Smash Bros.

Uh... Peach was in 3D World and is in Smash Bros, and she's had her own game starring only her. :/

I like Rosalina because she's a pretty character, and her voice actor has done a great job with her voice.

I hope Nintendo goes back and explores Daisy's Kingdom a little more in the future.

You know what else Peach has? Gazillion games of being kidnapped from parties(including the most ridiculous ways to be kidnapped like being incapacitated by CAKE....) and dragged from castle to castle by an overgrown dinosauraligatorthing in love with her.

And yeah Super Princess Peach. The game where Peach fights via power of changing emotions(what the fuck Nintendo?) and which has been quite commonly criticized.

With how Rosalina is in EVERYTHING nowadays and just how fast her popularity exploded, chances are we might get her game too. Hopefully without her using the power of emotional instability and mood swings...(again wtf nintendo?)

As for Daisy. I really, REALLY doubt that. even in promo material nowadays Nintendo barely features her and mainstream public sees her as nothing but pallet swap of peach.

Super Princess Peach received anywhere from a 6 to an 8, which is pretty alright for a spin-off. At least she has emotive powers and can do things herself and whatnot.

I don't think that portraying (back then) the only formidable lead female in Mario franchise as bipolar emotionally unstable thing counts as "good". If anything it goes together with all the kidnapping stuff her character is surrounded with and certainly did not improve people's perception of her.

They gave her emotion, and one of them was anger/annoyance. Boo hoo. People have emotions, characters have emotions too. More criticism was laid out about how easy the game was, unsurprisingly only a small a handful gave a crap about the 'sexism.' Apparently even press packages coming perfume scented is sexism!

In the end her portrayal wouldn't have mattered to a person like you, because you'd always find some aspect to lean on to make it sound terrible. There's no point.

Its not that they gave her anger. Its that the mechanics of changing emotions is a typical stereotype of female portrayal in sexist narrative.

And yes. Perfume part was another "what the fuck nintendo" part.

They had a chance to have Peach be taken out of the "feminine damsel in distress princess" stereotype and they blew it by reinforcing it.

As said, you're one of the types that'll see sexism in everything. There is no pleasing you.

Is it a 'sexist portrayal' or is just a regular old portrayal? Women can be swayed by emotion, my goodness! They can wear perfume too, Peach might even enjoy a fine smelling fragrance or two. How sexist! She should have been the absolutely stereotypical portrayal of a 'strong' woman, it would have been way better for her. Oh wait- that's also a fairly moody role. Shit.

You would be not happy with any result. Admit it. Nothing will be progressive enough.

If Rosalina does get her own game, it's probably going to be a whimsical girly adventure too. She might even change her mood too, possibly get angry when she's beating up enemies. I'm sure you'll find something wrong with it either way, you know - something that's 'wrong' and doesn't really matter.

I don't blame you. She was introduced on a portable, so unless you played the Mario Land games on Gameboy or bought party/racing games you'd probably have never seen her. It's a shame really, because she came with Wario on tow and he kinda stole the spotlight.

If we count the games not in the main series, like Super Mario RPG, Super Paper Mario, etc., then it's Peach, because she's awesome in them.

She showed up in just one Mario game for the original Gameboy all the way back in 1989. She replaced Peach's role in that game, however unless you had the box or the instruction manual there is no possible way you could have known that since there was no story or explanation in-game (yes, I've played the game before).

Somehow Nintendo decided that because she showed up in that one game, she's top-quality material to show up in all the tennis/baseball/golf/whatever spinoffs ever since.

This is the game she debuted in: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Super_Mario_Land

I find it odd that Daisy is tied with Peach in the poll. She's an extremely minor character who's only had one legitimate game that doesn't involve tennis.

EDIT: Would someone please explain to me why we shouldn't consider games such as Paper Mario, Super Mario RPG, Super Mario Bros. 2 etc. when discussing Peach? It's almost like you're all purposefully discounting any game where Peach did something useful to skew votes towards Rosalina. Nowhere in the thread title or the original post does it say that those games don't count.

Personally, I'd vote Peach since she's been with Mario and the crew since the very beginning. Rosalina is cool, but that's pretty much all she has going for her.
