Princess Peach

Princess Peach (ピーチ姫 Pīchi-hime) is a character created by Shigeru Miyamoto for Nintendo, debuting in Super Mario Bros.

(2024).

In the 2023 film Super Mario Bros., her story is expanded upon: Peach was found as a baby in the Mushroom Kingdom and raised by Toads, explaining her humanity in a world of different creatures. This adds a layer of mystery and depth to her origin.
