[@paulaabelenda5867]

I don't doubt Miyamoto was the one to suggest the appearance of Pikmin throughout the Super Nintendo World, since not only he's the creator of that franchise, but also because he has been heavily involved with the theme park from beginning. This is smart cause Pikmin isn't as big as Mario or Zelda, therefore this might be its only chances of appearing in it.

[@Quinhala11]

Why isn't Daisy in the render? All of the wristband characters (Mario, Luigi, Peach, Daisy, Toad and Yoshi) are in the render except Daisy :(

[@josh6453]

Because Daisy isn’t a relevant character in Mario canon, therefore not important.

[@Quinhala11]

@@josh6453 Did you read what i wrote? Daisy is one of the characters that have a Super Nintendo World wristband themed after them, the others are Mario, Luigi, Peach, Toad and Yoshi Also wdym "not relevant to canon"? She appeared in 2 main games, and even if she hadn't ..wat?

@@Quinhala11 ikr Daisy is in canon mario games like Super Mario Land so what do they mean "not canon"?

Not actually the first time Pikmin have appeared in the Mario world outside of crossover games. They would sometimes pop out of flower beds in Mario Golf: Toadstool Tour.

[@ethanpaul1865]

This is only the first phase of the park, next phases will add other series. Donkey Kong should be apart of the next phase if they're still going off of early plans.

[@featuremarkstudios]

From what I know it’s going to be more than just Mario. They’re starting off with Mario franchise and then they should be expanding into other franchises.
