Princess Daisy was 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.

Afterwards she made a few cameo appearances before appearing in the Nintendo 64 game Super Mario Bros., 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 light weight, Mario Party and Super Mario Strikers, among others.

Unlike Princess Peach, Daisy has a strongly implied tomboyish personality, although she still wears dresses and crowns as the princess she is. It is also said that Daisy and Luigi may be in a secret relationship.

[edit] Appearance

When Daisy first appeared in the Marioverse, she had long orange hair, a flower motif to her yellow and white dress, light skin, and a pink crown. This outfit also included flower accessories such as a blue flower brooch, flower earrings, and even flower jewels on her crown. The daisy-motif has only changed once since - a green color was added. In later games, such as Mario Party 3 and Mario Tennis, her appearance was refined. Giving her a rounder face, slightly darker skin tone, and a more auburn color to her hair. In Mario Party 4, Daisy's character design was altered again. She was given her shorter hair, a new yellow and orange dress design, a golden crown, and her original skin tone. Nowadays, Daisy appears 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) were that it didn't included her dress shoes, it didn't include a crown, and it didn't include Daisy's 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, but not 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 pants that are orange with yellow accents. The rest of her sports attire includes her crown and sport shoes.

[edit] 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 best friends since Daisy's appearance in Mario Tennis. They have also been stated together a good team and 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".
  • Luigi - Luigi and Daisy have been shown in many appearances that state rumors of a secret love 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 in Daisy's trophy states 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, also their baby versions playing together. In Mario Kart Wii, on the racetrack named "Daisy Circuit," either your Miis or Luigi and Daisy are dancing
  • Toadette - Toadette and Daisy's team name in Mario Party games is "Shopping Buddies".
  • Wario - There relationship is unclear but we see there is negativity since in Mario Strikers Charged, when Wario does his special moves were he releases gas Daisy and only Daisy say "WARIO!" in a disgusted way. But there also can be places were they can really be friends because of this team name "Mischief-Makers" showing they can both be trouble together.
  • Waluigi - It seems there 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 has also been names for them in Mario Party games, e.i. "Awkward Date".
  • Birdo - Daisy has also had team name "Gallopin' Gal-Pals" in Mario Party 8 that state she and Birdo are friends. Also, the two of of them are automatic partners in Mario Tennis for the N64 and they share good chemistry in Mario Super Sluggers.
  • Yoshi - Has also seen to be in good terms with Daisy with the team names Cutie Pies, and Tomboy-Trouble showing they are probably friends.

[edit] Future

Daisy is set to appear in The upcoming Super Mario Stadium Baseball And Mario and Sonic at the Olympic Winter Games as a playable character.
