In 2006, Nintendo released a game called Super Princess Peach, which sort of flew under most people’s radars. It’s a simple little platformer, and it’s a spin-off of the Mario series, starring Princess Peach.
Good News: In a feminist twist, Peach now has to save Mario!
Bad News: In a sexist twist, Peach saves Mario by crying a lot.
Princess Peach saves Mario and the Toads by crying, singing and stomping around like a madwoman. Her out-of-control emotions end up being the perfect way to save the Mushroom Kingdom. And today, we’re sharing a brief video which shows off the gameplay:
Why doesn’t Princess Peach act like this in every game? If she did, I bet she wouldn’t get kidnapped so often.
I remember importing this game because I wanted it and I couldn’t wait for the PAL release. I wish I hadn’t really – like you said, it isn’t a good game. I also completed it in a single day, the exact same problem with Kirby’s Squeak Squad. It was too short, too easy and after a while the ingenuity of everything wore off.
Umm… You guys do realize that this game was intended for little girls right?
You clearly haven’t noticed the kind of games I review.
My grand daughters loved that game when they were small. Now they are bigger girls and prefer some outdoors so they relegated it to their collection cabinet. However, the memories they collected on that game are profound especially the funny ones–reason to be jolly in their night reminiscence.
