Princess Peach in her beautiful traveling clothes

I tagged this as a spoiler just in case anyone hasn't played Mario Odyssey on the Switch. I'm sure most of you are familiar with the Mario story where Princess Peach is always kidnapped by Bowser, and Mario has to rescue the damsel in distress.

Frankly, I wish the Mario franchise would give Peach her own story. In this game, they kind of did! At the end of the game, Mario is dressed in a tuxedo to crash the wedding and rescue Princess Peach. After Mario defeats Bowser, he walks up to her while in the tuxedo, and she's still in a wedding dress (forced to wear by Bowser). Mario wears the tuxedo thinking he'd marry her after the rescue.

But NOPE! Bowser is also still there. They both began to compete with each other by giving her flowers (HAHAHA). She then said "NO!" and walked away! Watch this video if you're really bored and want to see their reaction: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E0LD48bKGBI

Princess Peach then goes on her own journeys across the Mario universe with her friend. As you can see in the screenshot above, in each world, she wears an outfit that fits for a queen. Not just princess!

So the end of this game isn't really Mario rescuing Princess Peach. It's of Mario crashing a wedding and Princess Peach taking that opportunity to find herself. Unfortunately, you can't play as Peach in this game. It'd be awesome if you could though!

Be like Princess Peach. Don't end up with the guy who abuses you (Bowser) or sees you as a helpless being (Mario).

Travel the world (when the pandemic is over) and find your own happiness with your own fabulous outfits and friends!
