Why is Rosalina always 'big'? She's huge in Smash Bros, and she's somehow a heavy character in Mario Kart 8.

That is a very good question. Beats me.

While there is no official description for her height, through model comparisons, it's possible to deduce that her height would be about 7'07"/231cm in Mario Galaxy. So canonically, she'd be taller than Ganondorf from Zelda (according to Hyrule Hystoria, Ganondorf is 7'6"/229cm in Ocarina of Time, at least), and she seems about as tall as Waluigi.

There was also one point in Galaxy's ending where she was basically a giant, so there is reason to believe she can actually change her own size. But her regular height is seriously tall regardless.

She's a heavy in Mario Kart because of her height, much like Waluigi. In Smash, however, she seems like her weight will work much like Mewtwo in Melee - she's gonna be heavy and big, but due to having a floaty gravity effect, knocking her off to the side will actually be easy enough. She will be difficult to knock upwards though. The Rosalina player in the Smash Invitational survived Little Mac's 1 Hit KO Punch, albeit at 0%.

EDIT: This explains what I mean:

Also, there's a whole thread on Smashboards where I was discussing this topic, a lot of comparisons and good points were made:

http://smashboards.com/threads/rosalinas-height.352502/

One rather amusing point worth noting, is that regular sized Rosalina is just shy of clipping through the lower platforms of Battlefield in Smash 4 (in Brawl, only Bowser and Ganondorf were like that, and maybe Ike and DK), from a standstill, and absolutely towers over Zero Suit Samus:

Before Pac-Man was announced as playable, he was forshadowed in clouds. Is Rayman being forshadowed now?

Hmm, not very easy to see in the trailer itself, I wouldn't jump the gun yet. I wouldn't have seen anything at all if it weren't for that image in the first place.

Still, subtlety is subtle, guess time will tell, as always.

I regret nothing!

Pac-Man is best thanks to new SSB4 Patch:
Gonna troll everyone online now

Still bitter about Roy. Now Wolf is the only lad missing and the whole trifecta of clones will be back.

(and he will be back because the japanese flood the smash ballot like crazy)

Sakurai said that next DLC characters will be for fan service purpose only so I won't be surprised if we get more Fire Emblem clones and Wolf.
But hopefully that also means that Snake returns.

Now that I think about it, fan service or not, the Inklings are the best choice for DLC characters because there's already Amiibos for them.

Considering that Sakurai said that he will only add few more characters, I personally feel that adding Inklings would not be so wise decission. Reason why I think so is because I think that there are more classic characters that deserve spot, preferably from third party such as Banjo-Kazooie. Inklings are too new IMO to be in this Smash Bros title. They would fit more in next title. Also there are pretty much Splatoon costumes if I am correct so I don't think Sakurai will add them. Same how he probably won't add Protoman or EXE.

You're just saying that because you don't like them. I'd say Inklings would be perfect for Smash, along with King K Rool and Rayman.

I'd personally like the inklings myself.
Though I'd rather Rayman or Snake...

Anyways, I uploaded a new video to youtube if anyone wants to check it out.
This was recorded at the previous Smash tournament I went to... it's pretty amazing. I was on the verge of death and well... check it out:

Okay, first off Banjo and Kazooie are First Party to Microsoft. It doesn't matter if they started on Nintendo. They're stuck exclusive to Xbox and Microsoft platforms.

Secondly, they're too new? So what? It doesn't matter if they're too new! As long as they can have a good moveset, it's okay for them to be included in Smash. Too new. Ha! I laugh at that excuse. How about we cut Mr. Game & Watch or Duck Hunt because they're too old!

And lastly, costumes. If you think costumes deconfirm a character, you're being ignorant. Link has a costume for a Mii. So does Mega Man. The only reason why Mega Man EXE and Protoman aren't characters themselves is because they would be so similar to Mega Man and Capcom has two reps in Smash already.

You're just being so obviously biased towards your dislike of Inklings.

Microsoft publically said that they would like if Banjo and Kazooie were in SSB4. That pretty much means Sakurai just has to put them in, credit Microsoft in credits of the game with new update and end of story.

No, it doesn't mean shit. I'm pretty sure Ubisoft wants them to put Rayman in as well. Oh, and what about Shovel Knight? Or countless other characters? Please, refrain from posting statements that just aren't true.
Sakurai can do what ever he likes, if he doesn't want B and K in the game, he won't add them. Nintendo is the one making decisions, not Microsoft.
And indeed, like Pirez stated. The chances of B and K being added to smash are probably pretty slim.

Mm, gonna agree with Imco, Pirez, and Brad here. While Phil Spencer stated that he would like Banjo and Kazooie in Smash, the chances are slim to none. It doesn't help the fact that Banjo Kazooie is Microsoft exclusive.

Even if the big BK gets enough attention for them to get in. And even if Sakurai would like to put them in I am fairly sure that Nintendo will just say no. They wouldn't put a gaming mascot owned by one of their big rivals in the game. they just won't do that.
