Princess Peach Showtime puts a spotlight on Princess Peach, a character known for being in distress, in a refreshing solo adventure. This marks a significant shift, highlighting Peach's strengths without relying on her rescuer, Mario. However, Nintendo's array of iconic heroines extends far beyond Peach, waiting for their turn to take the lead.
While Peach takes center stage, other female characters in the Nintendo universe are often relegated to supporting roles or spin-off games like Mario Kart and Smash Bros. It's high time these heroines step into the limelight with their own captivating adventures.
