Princess Daisy (JP) is the princess Mario rescued in the Game Boy game Super Mario Land. She is the princess of Sarasaland and in the game she was kidnapped by the evil alien Tatanga and Mario had to save her. Afterwards she made a few cameo appearances before appearing in the Nintendo 64 game Mario Tennis in 2000, where Daisy appeared as a playable character. Since then she has gained popularity and continues to appear in Mario spin-off game series such as Mario Kart, as a lightweight, Mario Party and Mario Strikers, among others. She eventually debuted as a fighter in the Super Smash Bros. series where she was introduced as an Echo Fighter of Princess Peach in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate.

Unlike Princess Peach and despite her sweetness and beauty, Daisy has a strongly implied tomboyish personality, although she still wears dresses and crowns as the princess she is.

Appearance[]

File:SML Daisy.png

Princess Daisy's classic appearance.

MWhen Daisy first appeared in the Mario series, she had long ginger hair, a flower motif to her white and yellow dress, light skin, and a red crown. This outfit also included flower accessories such as a black flower brooch, flower earrings, and even flower jewels on her crown. The daisy-motif has only changed once since - a teal-blue color was added.

In later games, such as Mario Party 3 and Mario Tennis, her appearance was modified a bit. Giving her a rounder face, slightly darker skin tone, and a more auburn hair and wears a pink crown on her head. In Mario Party 4, Daisy's character design was changed again. She was given her shorter hair looking like a bob, as well as her natural hair color from her debut design, a new yellow and orange dress design, a bronze crown, and her original skin tone. Nowadays, Daisy appeared to have an average skin tone as opposed to the pale tone given to her in Mario Party 4, and Daisy's cheeks have been toned down quite a bit since her Mario Party 3 change. When Daisy appeared in Mario Tennis for the Nintendo 64, she wore a shorter version of her dress from Mario Party 3. Other differences (other than the fact it was much shorter) included her not having her dress shoes, her crown, nor her gloves. Daisy can also be seen wearing this outfit in artwork for NES Open Tournament Golf. It should be mentioned that this outfit was a refined unlockable costume in Mario Hoops 3-on-3. It included Daisy's orange loops at the bottom, instead of the two orange pieces of cloth around the waist. It also included her new sport shoes and crown. Not including the unlockable costume from Mario Hoops 3-on-3, Daisy wears a sports outfit similar to her current dress except, instead of a dress, she wears a shirt without the puffy sleeves on her dress, and without the white frills. She also wears a pair of hot short trousers that are orange with yellow accents. The rest of her sports attire includes her crown and sport shoes. In Super Mario Strikers, Daisy wears an orange outfit that completely bares her midriff and small shorts. In the Mario Kart series, she keeps her same appearance, but in Mario Kart Wii and Mario Kart 8, when choosing Daisy on a bike or ATV, Daisy wears a similar jumpsuit to Peach and Rosalina, only her stripes are orange.

In Adventure Mode Daisy firstly appears in the opening cutscene where Luigi, Wario and Waluigi get possessed by an ancient racket. Daisy, upon witnessing what happened, noted that Wario and Waluigi were even more suspicious than usual, and also suspected Toad of knowing something before enticing him to reveal this information. Successively Daisy wants to help Mario to find Luigi but Toad refuses to let her leave because according to him the mission is too dangerous for a "diplomat" and convinces her to stay in the stadium for the rest of their mission. When Mario and Toad come back to the stadium and Lucien forces Mario to compete into the "Lucien Cup", Daisy and Peach face the corrupted Wario and Waluigi, being empowered with portions of Bask's power by Astren earlier.

Trophy Description[]

File:Daisy Trophy Melee.png

Daisy's trophy in Melee.

  • "The princess of Sarasa-land, Daisy met Mario when he helped defeat the evil alien Tatanga in Super Mario Land. Princess Daisy is a bit of a tomboy when compared with her counterpart, Princess Peach. After her appearance in Mario Golf, some gossips started portraying her as Luigi's answer to Mario's Peach."

Super Smash Bros. Brawl[]

She appeared once again as a trophy but this time, her trophy was based on her Mario Strikers Charged appearance. She is also once again featured as one of Peach's alternate costumes and also as a sticker that gives +5 damage to leg based attacks and can only be used by Peach and Princess Zelda.

Trophy Description[]

File:Striker Daisy - Brawl Trophy.png

Daisy's trophy in Brawl.

  • "The princess of Sarasaland and an upbeat and cheerful go-getter. She has appeared in titles ever since Mario saved her after her kidnapping by the tyrannical alien, Tatanga. Although her iconic look is a yellow and white dress, she goes with a sportier look in Super Mario Strikers to compliment her spunky scoring strikes."

Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS/Wii U[]

Daisy appears as 3 different trophies in this game and is once again the basis for one of Peach's alternate costumes.

Trophies Descriptions[]

Daisy (Tennis Outfit)[]
File:DaisyTennisOutfitTrophy3DS.png

A Tennis based version of Daisy exclusive to the 3DS version.

  • NA: "Similar to Peach in how she plays tennis, Daisy also packs a seriously powerful shot. Maybe their choice of colors symbolizes their personalities? They're alike in a lot of ways, but if you could choose just one, would you choose Princess Daisy or Princess Peach?"
  • EU: "Like Peach, Daisy is a Technique player, but she has something else up her sleeve: a really powerful shot. Do you think the sedate pink and vivid orange reflect Peach and Daisy's different personalities? Would you say you're more Team Peach or Team Daisy? Or maybe... Team Both?"
Daisy[]
File:DaisyTrophyWiiU.png

The "regular Daisy" trophy exclusive to the Wii U version.

  • NA: "She may be the princess of Sarasaland, but she doesn't exactly have the poise you might expect from royalty. Daisy is more of a headstrong, active type. That's all part of her charm, though, and rumor has it Luigi is quite smitten with her. Unlike Peach, she's only really been kidnapped once - in Super Mario Land."
  • EU: "She may be the princess of Sarasaland, but she doesn't exactly have the poise you might expect from royalty. Daisy is more of a headstrong, active type. That's all part of her charm, though, and rumour has it that's why Luigi's so smitten with her. Unlike Peach, she's only really been kidnapped once - in Super Mario Land."
Daisy (Baseball)[]
File:DaisyBaseballTrophyWiiU.png

The Baseball based Trophy of Daisy exclusive to the Wii U version.

  • NA: "The captain of the Daisy Flowers, Daisy is great both when at bat and when defending. Her fastballs especially are a thing to be feared. Her Star Swing, Flower Swing, will cause a garden to bloom where the ball lands. Fielders will have to wait for the flowers to clear away. What a pretty delay of the game!"
  • EU: "When it comes to baseball, Daisy, captain of the Daisy Flowers, is good at battling and even better at defence. She throws a mean fastball when she's on the pitcher's mound, and her batting special, Flower Swing, makes a garden bloom in the outfield. Who says there's no time to stop and smell the flowers in the middle of a ball game?"

Super Smash Bros. Ultimate[]

Daisy was announced to be a playable character in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate during E3 2018. She is an Echo Fighter of Peach, playing mostly similar to her except for minor details such as aesthetics. Largely, her differences are aesthetic with several of her animations altered to reference her prominence in the Mario spin-offs and given flower and petal effects instead of hearts. Peach also no longer has an alternate costume with Daisy's color scheme. Her specials are

  • Neutral Special: Toad
  • Side Special: Daisy Bomber
  • Up Special: Daisy Parasol
  • Down Special: Vegetable

Friends[]

  • Mario - Mario saved Daisy from the villain Tatanga in Super Mario Land and the two of them have been friends since then.
  • Peach - Peach and Daisy have been portrayed as best friends since Daisy's appearance in Mario Tennis. They have also stated together a good team and are very strong if they are together like in Mario Party 8. Their team name is "Damsels in Success". And, in Mario Party DS, their team name is the "Power Princesses". In the Prima Guide for Mario Kart Wii, it states that Daisy is Peach's cousin but this has yet to be proven in games.
  • Luigi - Like Mario and Peach, Luigi and Daisy have been shown in many appearances that state rumors of a potential romantic relationship. Also in team names for them they are usually in dating terms or in Mario Party 8, "Tango Tanglers". Also in Super Smash Bros. Melee it is stated in Daisy's trophy that Daisy is to Luigi as Peach is to Mario, showing another reason. Also, in NES Open Tournament Golf, Daisy is Luigi's caddy as Peach is Mario's. Also, in Mario Golf: Toadstool Tour, Daisy calls upon Luigi in the same fashion Peach calls upon Mario. And in Mario Power Tennis, Luigi holds Daisy's trophy if she wins a tournament then grabs it from him saying "Hi sweetie". Also, in Mario Kart Wii in Daisy Circuit, there are statues of Daisy and Luigi dancing together as well as their baby versions playing together. Plus, in the intro of Mario Party: Island Tour, the two are briefly seen walking together while talking to each other.
  • Toadette - Toadette and Daisy's team name in Mario Party games is "Shopping Buddies".
  • Wario - Their relationship is unclear, but we see there is negativity since in Mario Strikers Charged, when Wario does his special moves where he releases gas, Daisy and only Daisy says, "WARIO!" in a disgusted way. But there also can be places where they can really be friends because of their team name in Mario Party 8, "Mischief-Makers", showing they can both be trouble together.
  • Waluigi - It seems they are not friends since they have bad chemistry with one another in Mario Superstar Baseball and Mario Super Sluggers. However, it is rumored Waluigi has a crush on Daisy. There have also been names for them in Mario Party games, e.i. "Awkward Date," though the awkwardness could be due to the aforementioned bad chemistry.
  • Birdo - Daisy has also had the team name "Gallopin' Gal-Pals" in Mario Party 8 that states she and Birdo are friends. Also, the two of them are automatic partners in Mario Tennis for the N64 and they share good chemistry in Mario Super Sluggers.
  • Yoshi - Has also been seen to be on good terms with Daisy with the team names Cutie Pies and Tomboy-Trouble, showing they are probably friends.

Trivia[]

  • One of Peach's alternate costumes in the Super Smash Bros. series is loosely based on Daisy, but it is simply a different set of colors and not an actual appearance on her part. As of
  • Daisy debuted in Super Mario Land on April 21, 1989. Coincidentally the birth flower of this month is the daisy.
  • Daisy was played by Samantha Mattis in the 1993 live action movie Super Mario Bros. as she was the princess of an alternate dimension called "Dinohatten".
