Princess Daisy (Japanese: デイジー姫, Hepburn: Deijī-hime, Template:IPA-ja) is a fictional character in the Mario series of video games, who first appeared in 1989's Super Mario Land. Daisy is known as the cousin of Princess Peach as stated in the Prima guides for Mario Kart: Double Dash!! and Mario Kart Wii. She is also the princess and ruler of Sarasaland, who is kidnapped by the alien Tatanga. Since her appearance in Mario Tennis, she has become a staple playable character in the Mario spin-off games, in which she is often paired up with her cousin Princess Peach. Though, she is known to have competitive spirit and is often depicted as a tomboy. It is often speculated that she is Luigi's love interest. This supposed love interest would become the plot of the 1993 live-action film, in which strangely enough, Luigi is the lead character saving Daisy from President/King Koopa, instead of his older brother, Mario, who serves as more of a sidekick in-film and is typically the lead in-game character. Her official description for Mario Party 4 states that she and Luigi have a rumored love interest, more so from Luigi; but Waluigi likes her too, which she does not appreciate. Daisy appears as a protagonist in the 1993 film Super Mario Bros., portrayed by Samantha Mathis. She was created by Shigeru Miyamoto's mentor Gunpei Yokoi.

Concept and creation

Super Mario Land's producer, Gunpei Yokoi, wanted to recreate the feeling of 1985's Super Mario Bros., only set in a separate world to the Mushroom Kingdom. This world would be Sarasaland (occasionally styled Sarasa Land), and Daisy would be its princess. Her early design looked more similar to Princess Peach, except with an orange, titian hair instead of blonde hair, a yellow dress with short puffy sleeves, white frills, orange high heels, a daisy-shaped emerald green brooch, a dark gold crown, emerald green earrings with daisy markings, and wrist-length white evening gloves. In 2000's Mario Tennis, she appeared in game artwork with long hair like Pauline, and retained her flower brooch and earrings. She also had a darker skin tone. This design endured until 2002's Mario Party 4, in which she was given her current design which distinguished Daisy further from Peach by depicting her with different physical traits, such as a flip hairstyle and lighter skin, yet with her dress design and crown color being more consistent with Peach's. In her first appearance, Daisy was described as a tomboy, a trait she has maintained throughout the games, with Daisy being depicted as a more cheerful and boastful character than Peach. In Mario sports games, she wears more athletic outfits instead of her usual dress, her color scheme normally being yellow and orange. Her special abilities are often based around flowers, with the daisy flower being her namesake.

Appearances

In video games

As of 2021, Daisy has appeared in 81 games, in most of which she is a playable character. Her first appearance in the Mario series is in Super Mario Land, released in 1989 for the Game Boy. Daisy is the princess of Sarasaland, a world outside of the series' usual setting of the Mushroom Kingdom, who is kidnapped by the tyrannical alien, Tatanga, who intends to marry her in order to gain control of her realm. Mario must traverse the four kingdoms of Sarasaland in order to track down Tatanga and rescue Daisy. She next made a small appearance in NES Open Tournament Golf in 1991 as Luigi's caddie. She did not appear in another game for nine years until 2000's Mario Tennis by Camelot Software Planning on the Nintendo 64, in order to introduce more human characters into the game. Daisy is regularly a playable character in the Mario sports games. She appears in all of the Mario Party series since Mario Party 3 except Mario Party Advance, and all of the Mario Kart games since Double Dash except for the first two installments of the Arcade GP series, and all five games in Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games. She also appears in the Square Enix game Fortune Street. On September 29, 2017, Daisy was added to the list of playable characters in Super Mario Run.

Outside of the Mario game series, Daisy was included as a skin in the Minecraft: Wii U Edition Super Mario Mashup Pack, released on May 16, 2016. Additionally, Daisy has been alluded in various games. For example, in every Super Smash Bros. title released since Super Smash Bros. Melee, in addition to Daisy's appearance as trophies, one of Peach's reoccurring palette swaps represents Daisy's color scheme. She has a third eye in the back of her head of her trophy in earlier versions, which was later removed in the later copies. In Melee, there is an error in her trophy description. It says she appeared in Mario Golf for the Nintendo 64 and Game Boy Color, although she actually appeared in Mario Tennis for the same consoles. She appears in Super Smash Bros. Brawl as another trophy with her attire from Mario Strikers Charged. She appears in two stickers: one with her in Super Mario Strikers, and one with her and Peach in Mario Party 7. Again, her description has an error. It says her iconic dress color is yellow and white, but now she wears an iconic yellow and orange dress. She reappears in Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS as both a palette swap for Peach and an unlockable trophy with Daisy in her tennis attire. In Super Smash Bros. for Wii U, she appears not in one trophy, but three trophies, one with her in her dress, one with her in her sports uniform with a baseball glove, and her baby counterpart. Her Peach palette swap appears in a picture in Peach's clear movie for beating Classic Mode as Peach. She is a newcomer in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, as Princess Peach's echo fighter. In the Wii U and Nintendo Switch versions of Bayonetta and Bayonetta 2, one of Bayonetta's Nintendo outfits is based on Daisy's dress design.

Daisy's amiibo was released on November 4, 2016 to coincide with the release of Mario Party: Star Rush.

In other media

Daisy was one of the main characters of 1993's Super Mario Bros. film, loosely based on the games, in which she was portrayed by Samantha Mathis. In the film, Daisy is portrayed as sort of a mix between Princess Peach Toadstool and Princess Daisy. She is a student of archaeology at New York University whom Luigi falls in love with. While digging for dinosaur bones under the Brooklyn Bridge, Daisy is kidnapped by two henchmen of President Koopa, the dictator of an alternate world in which evolved dinosaur humanoids rule over a lone mega-city in the Mushroom Kingdoom called Dinohattan, of which Daisy is actually the princess. President Koopa intends to kidnap Daisy to force her to use her necklace, in actuality a piece of the meteorite that split the dimensions and killed half the dinosaurs, to reopen the portal the plumbers came through and take over the Earth and rule both worlds. Luigi and Mario give chase in order to rescue her from Iggy and Spike, Koopa's cousins and henchmen. She appears at the end of the film after the fight wearing a pink version of the brothers' super suits and holding a flamethrower, showing she's learned to fight and needs their help one more time. Daisy also appeared once again as the prisoner of Tatanga in some episodes of the Nintendo Comics System.

Mario and Daisy

Princess Daisy makes her debut appearance in Super Mario Land. Tatanga, a space alien, invades Daisy's nation, Sarasaland, in order to marry her and make her his queen. He kidnaps Daisy, and hypnotizes all the land's inhabitants, enslaving them into his army. Mario attempts to rescue Daisy and bring peace to Sarasaland by traveling through each of the four kingdoms in pursuit of Tatanga to try and defeat him.

Throughout the game, enemies disguise themselves as Daisy to trick Mario into believing he has rescued her (specifically, the Birabuto, Muda, and Easton Kingdoms had a Fly, a Gunion, and a Kumo posing as the princess, respectively.). In the end Daisy is rescued, but Tatanga manages to escape. Daisy thanks Mario, and the two fly away in a jet.

The instruction booklet calls Daisy "Daisy Princess" on the thirteenth page, even though her official name is "Princess Daisy" (as seen elsewhere in the manual). This is likely because of the Japanese styling for Daisy's name, Deiji-hime, places the word for "Daisy (Deiji)" before the word for "Princess (hime)".

Super Mario Maker

Daisy appears as a costume in Super Mario Maker. Here, she is the only character in Super Mario Maker whose Costume Mario sprite is incompatible with her respective amiibo. Instead, her costume can only be unlocked by completing the Adventure in Sarasaland event course, which was launched months before her amiibo was released. As with many other costumes, Princess Daisy uses voice clips from previous titles. Her taunt is a callback to her sprite's pose in Super Mario Land. Her course clear fanfare and death sound comes from Super Mario Land (the latter also having a voice clip over it).

Super Mario Run

Daisy was added to the roster of playable characters in the version 3.0.4 update of Super Mario Run to coincide with the new addition of the Remix 10 mode. This marks Daisy's first return to the main Super Mario series of games; appearing in Super Mario Land almost 30 years prior. With the update, the Remix 10 pipe is opened, and Toad informs the player Daisy is lost within the world. The player must try to find her and help bring her back. Clearing short, consecutive courses advances Mario through spaces on a map of numbered areas. Daisy is unlocked once Area 30 is cleared; where she is found and curtsies Mario before thanking him. Daisy's special ability is the double jump, and it is unique to her. After jumping once, she can jump again in midair to boost her jump height and distance a bit.

A Daisy statue of 5 rarity and a Gold Daisy statue of 6 rarity can be acquired by playing through Remix 10 mode and getting them from the Bonus ? Block as building items used to decorate the Mushroom Kingdom. Upon defeating Bowser in World Tour mode's World 6-4 with Daisy, she will be seen rescuing Toad instead of Peach. As with the other playable characters, Daisy can be seen wearing her own headphones when the player mutes the game's music to listen to their own.

Nintendo Comics System

Daisy also appears in the Game Boy comic books. Just as in Super Mario Land, she is Tatanga's captive and is waiting for Mario to save her. In these comics, Daisy, Mario, and Tatanga are released from the world of video games to go on adventures in the "Real World."

Mario Golf series

Daisy has made many appearances in Mario Golf games, as one of the strongest female characters in the game. She has appeared in two Mario Golf games as a playable character but as made cameos in other games such as NES Open Tournament Golf and the scorecard of Mario Golf: Advance Tour. She didn't appear in the Nintendo 64 version of Mario Golf, however, she did appear in the tennis counterpart Mario Tennis along with Waluigi

Mario Golf: Toadstool Tour

Daisy makes her golfing debut in Mario Golf: Toadstool Tour. She is playable by default, and this is the first sports game where Daisy is physically more powerful than her cousin Peach. Star Daisy can be unlocked by defeating Daisy in a Character Match VS Challenge. In Doubles Mode, Daisy and Peach are automatic partners, setting a trend for later games involving teams.

Daisy is one of the more powerful characters in the game, having a greater shot Distance than most other characters. Her shot height is also high, making it easy to recover from traps and shoot over obstacles. It does, however, make her shots more affected by the wind. She also has a good Spin, and above-average Impact. Without proper adjustments, however, she tends to slice the ball due to her below-average Control. If the player gets a Nice Shot, Daisy's ball soars through the air in a burst of flower petals.

Mario Golf: World Tour

Daisy appears in Mario Golf: World Tour as a default, playable character. She wears her sports dress as opposed to the top and shorts worn in the previous golf installment. In Castle Club mode, she appears in the Royal Room with some of the other golfers. She readily offers to play a round of golf, and she comments on the player's achievements as they compete in tournaments. Star Daisy can be unlocked by defeating her in the Forest Course character challenge, and a Daisy costume can be unlocked for use by the player's Mii by collecting all the Star Coins in the Forest Course challenges. A clothing set, golf clubs, and ball themed after her can also be unlocked for purchase at the Clubhouse.

She is again one of the more powerful characters, having a drive distance of 213 yards by default, and 270 as a star character. She also has the greatest shot height of any character, gaining an advantage when avoiding obstacles and completing certain challenge objectives, but needing extra adjustments for inclement weather. Her trajectory is also a draw, so she has that in the way of tricky shots as well. Her sweet-spot and control are average, but compared to characters with similar stats, she has either a greater distance or greater sweet-spot and control.

Mario Tennis Open

In Mario Tennis Open, Daisy returns as one of the starting participants with a Technique style of play. Daisy wears an athletic mini-dress for her tennis outfit in this game. She generally retains her stats from her appearance in Mario Power Tennis. In the shop, her racket, uniform, wristbands, and shoes are available for purchase. There is also a Daisy costume that's unlocked when the player collects 700+ points in Ring Shot with another player.

Mario Tennis: Ultra Smash

Princess Daisy appears as a playable character in Mario Tennis: Ultra Smash.Unlike prior Mario Tennis games, where she was classified as a Technique character, Daisy is classified as an All-Around player, and this is the first Mario Tennis game where her shots are more powerful than Peach's. Unlike in Mario Tennis Open, Daisy reverts back to her primary, two-piece, athletic wear in this game.

Mario Tennis Aces

Princess Daisy appears as a playable character in Mario Tennis Aces, where she is still classified as an All-Around character. Like the previous installment, Daisy wears her shorts but this time she has a new pair of shoes and a wristband.

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 him, the mission is too dangerous for a "diplomat" and convinces her to stay in the stadium for the rest of their mission (and also citing that Luigi, Wario, and Waluigi would have used their absence to attack the stadium again). 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, who are empowered with portions of Bask's power by Aster earlier.

Unfortunately, although they defeat the pair, their victory proves short-lived when Bowser stealing Lucien. After Bowser takes his leave with Lucien and challenges Mario, Daisy makes clear that this was the main reason she hated Bowser. After Mario defeated the resulting fusion between the two, Bowcien, Wario and Waluigi expressed disappointment that they would not be able to become the best tennis players with Lucien, prompting Daisy to scold them both for not learning anything.

Super Smash Bros. Melee

Daisy first appears in the Super Smash Bros. Melee . series with Super Smash Bros. Melee. She appears as a non-playable character in the form of an unlockable trophy. The trophy is available in both the Lottery and Regular Match in all three modes at various areas of the game. The trophy depicts her appearance from Mario Party 3. The trophy's description states that she appeared in Mario Golf for Nintendo 64 and Game Boy Color, though she actually appeared in Mario Tennis for those systems. Additionally, her trophy has a third eye on the back of her head, visible only by zooming in; this was removed in later versions of the game.

Additionally, Daisy's color scheme is available for use by Peach as an alternate costume. Although the palette also appears in all future installments prior to Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, this one includes Daisy's floral motif on the costume as well as her tanned skin and wrist length gloves. Because the All-Star Mode character trophies utilize alternate palettes to represent the trophies, Daisy's color scheme was used for Peach's All-Star Mode trophy. Aside from this, her in-game depiction in NES Open Tournament Golf was partly used for another alternate costume of Peach's, more specifically her blue dress.

Super Smash Bros. Ultimate

Daisy appears for the first time in a Super Smash Bros. game as a playable character in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, announced during the E3 2018 Nintendo Direct alongside fellow newcomers Inkling and Ridley. In the game, she is an "Echo Fighter" — one of seven designated fighters whose attacks and animations are derived from other fighters. In this case, Daisy is Peach's Echo Fighter; like certain other Echo Fighters (namely Richter and Dark Samus), Daisy's gameplay differences are barely noticeable, though she has several aesthetic differences, such as different animations for standing and running, and floral effects replacing Peach's heart effects. As a byproduct of being directly based on Peach, she performs moves that she has never used so far in the Mario series, such as the Floating Jump, and uses a Blue Toad for all her grabs as well as her standard special move. Like Peach, she plucks Vegetables from the ground for her down special move, which have varying damage outputs depending on their faces, with the small chance of plucking a Bob-omb or Mr. Saturn.

Like Rosalina, Bowser Jr., and the Koopalings, Daisy's voice clips in this game are recycled from various Mario games; for example, Daisy's on-screen appearance, floor attack, forward smash attack, and light knockback voices are taken from Mario Kart 8, the scream when she is hit by Shells in Mario Kart Wii is used when she is KO'd, and her falling scream from Mario Party 9 is used when she is star KO'd. In the World of Light story mode, she is recruited at Dracula's Castle after her puppet fighter is defeated. Daisy's Mii wig from the previous game returns, and is now available from the start. Daisy is one of the two newcomers in this game without an introduction tagline (similar to Dark Pit in Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS / Wii U), with the other being Inkling. She is also the only newcomer in this game without a dedicated reveal video, as she was simply shown coinciding with the introduction of the term "Echo Fighter", and the explanation that both Dark Pit and Lucina would be classified as such in the E3 2018 Nintendo Direct. Daisy is a fairly light fighter, being lighter than Marth, Diddy Kong, and Lucina but heavier than Young Link, Greninja, and Isabelle, while having the same weight as Peach.

Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games Tokyo 2020

Daisy returns as a playable Speed type character in Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games Tokyo 2020, where she wears several different outfits for different events. In the Story Mode, Daisy is one of the first characters to join Luigi and Tails in helping to rescue Mario and Sonic. She is also playable as a Speed type character in Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games Tokyo 2020 - Arcade Edition.

Legacy

Princess Daisy has been featured in many sets of collectibles for the Mario Series. Many mini-figures have been released as well as a small amount of larger figurines In her initial release for Super Mario Land, a set of mini figures were released for the game, and Daisy got one of herself depicting her original design. A Mario Party 7 set of 4cm vinyl figures were released in 2005; each of the playable characters in the games were featured. Released in 2008, Daisy was featured in a group of six characters for the release of the 4-inch, series 2, vinyl, Super Mario figures by PopCo Entertainment. For volume 2 of the Furuta Super Mario Bros candy toys, Daisy was featured with her own mini-figure. This series of figures were shipped inside chocolate covered eggs, which needed to be opened and eaten to receive the toy inside. Daisy was featured in the BanPresto Super Mario Volume 2 Set of 6 PVC Figure Keychains. Daisy has also had a number of figures for the Mario Kart series, including a figure for Mario Kart DS, and multiple figures for Mario Kart Wii, including a pull-back bike figure. She was also featured in the Super Mario Chess set as the second bishop on Mario's team, alongside her cousin Peach. She was featured in the second series of Super Mario K'Nex blind-bagged figures as the rare, being limited to two per case. She was featured in the Sanei Super Mario line of plush dolls in 2013 as well as the Super Mario All-Starsline in 2015. Daisy was depicted in one of the playing cards for the Mario Hanafuda cards released in 2015. Daisy has two amiibo figurines; a Super Mario series amiibo, that was revealed during E3 of 2016, and was released alongside Mario Party: Star Rush and a Super Smash Bros. series amiibo, that was initially revealed at the November 2018 Super Smash Bros. Direct and released in April of 2019.

Reception

Initially, Daisy drew little comment. In her early appearances, she was so similar to her cousin Princess Peach that some journalists even assumed that "Princess Daisy" was simply a new localization of "Princess Peach" rather than a new character.

Polygon listed Daisy at number 6 in a top-ten list of Mario Tennis Aces characters ranked by the internet, stating "She’s had a healthy share of posts and fan art dedicated to her". GameDaily listed Daisy at number eight in a top-ten list of Mario characters who deserve their own game. GamerVision's "Coop" wrote an article entitled "Top Ten Reasons Daisy is Better Than Peach", giving reasons ranging from her having a "less-annoying voice" and having a "better attitude", to Daisy being a better ruler due to the fact that Sarasaland has only been invaded once, whilst Peach's Mushroom Kingdom is always being invaded. Destructoid's Gamer's Red Carpet called "her choice of a brave yellow and orange combo dress... as flattering as it is retro", and that her dress and accessories "work much better than Peach's", grading her a B+ overall.In 2010, Audrey Drake at IGN listed Daisy as a potential valentine for Mario, commenting that being his "brother's gal" made her a sort of "forbidden fruit", and that he had saved her during the events of Super Mario Land. GamesRadar's Henry Gilbert wrote that it became increasingly evident that Luigi also needs "his own princess" and Princess Daisy is the character to whom he is closest. The pairing of Daisy and Luigi was included in Screw Attack's "Best EVER: Love Stories" video. She was also featured on Susanna Sheath's top 10 Mario characters as her number two choice.

However, Daisy also drew some critics. IGN reviewed Daisy negatively, giving her a 4 out of 10, whereas Princess Peach got an 8, Rosalina a 7 and Pauline an 8, but said that the "spark between Daisy and Luigi still burns bright." Lisa Foiles of The Escapist ranked Daisy number one on their list of top five annoying princesses in video games, stating she didn't really have a good reason why. John Teti of The A.V. Club reviewed Daisy negatively, calling her dress "unflattering" and describing her as a "Princess Peach with brown hair" who does not have a tomboyish attitude. Eurogamer refers Daisy as a clone of Peach in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate. John O'Conner of TheGamer.com describes Daisy as a re-skin of Peach. DenOfGeek.com points out that with no rescue narrative between Daisy and Luigi as the basis for romance, she chooses him based on his merits instead of gratitude. Daisy's infant counterpart, Baby Daisy, was listed by 1UP.com as one of the worst Mario Kart Wii characters.
