Hey everyone, I hope you enjoyed the video! I wanted to clarify when I was talking about a them setting up a potential Peach movie, I used the term “woke”, but I meant it as in “big brain”, since as a kid that’s how it used to be used. I apologize if this has led to any confusion or thinking I was trying to bring politics into my content, which I work very hard to leave out of the series.
Oh, and I’ll clarify I would see a Peach movie day fricking 1.
Woke never used to mean that
A peach movie would be amazing, as long as they pretend the Vibe Scepter never existed lol
I understand the problem with Peach's emotions but
The girl gets kidnapped on an almost daily basis, she'd have a lot building up
Concerns that Peach is too emotional are severely misplaced.
Look at the context of the game. Everyone else is completely consumed by a single emotion. Angry goombas, crying koopas, even Mario and Luigi are subject to this. Peach is literally the only being alive who is able to -control- her emotions. She's not crying because she's a woman and that's something only women do, she's crying because she understands the power inherent in the action and chooses to do so. People choosing to be offended by that are not able to see what's going on in the game as a whole, and it's very frustrating.
when i was younger me and my friends never thought of it as controversial, we just thought it was pretty cool that there was a game where peach was the main character. i specifically remember us using cheats with our r4 cards to have infinite magic so we could fly whenever we wanted, i also remember this one level i could never get past in the last world where you had to run away from a lava curtain.
This is too relatable
@@impliqued1910 haha, thank you
Ppl raging about a woman for expressing controlled emotions in a positive way and calling it hysteria are actually the sexists ones. It’s actually everyone else that was hysterical, the ones being negatively affected.
Well said.
As a woman, I loved _Super Princess Peach_ and never understood why Peach using her emotions to attack was sexist. I'm an emotional trainwreck who cries over the slightest things, has a hot temper, and gets super giddy when I'm excited. As an adult, I realize this is due to a range of factors like my autism and my lifelong struggle with anxiety, but the fact that women aren't taught to suppress their emotions like men are also played a factor. As such, I never had a problem with the "Hysterical Woman" stereotype, because I _am_ that stereotype. I'm a woman, and I'm a crybaby. I know that I'm a sample size of one, but I'm sure there are other women who are very emotional and will excuse it as "oh, that's just how women are" due to how they were socialized. And as a kid playing _Super Princess Peach,_ seeing Peach use her emotions to fight bad guys was kind of empowering. It showed that perhaps _my_ extreme emotions aren't something to be ashamed of like my parents often said ("You're acting like a 2-year-old!" "You're crying over nothing!" "You're embarrassing yourself!"), but can actually be beneficial. I thought maybe _my_ emotions could be used to take down bad guys, too.
Not everything is black and white. What may be a sexist stereotype to one person may also be a reminder that emotional expression is not a bad thing to another.
Honestly personally I don't think it was even meant to be sexist I just thing that developers thought that using emotions as a gameplay mechanic would be fun and from my experience it worked.
ya I think that the devs just thought that the emotion thing would be cool but that doesn’t fix the end of the game
I can see why the game would be controversial, but you brought up something *fascinating* to me, and it reminds me of my own beliefs about the character.
Y'ever notice how traditional femininity is kinda looked down upon in society? Girls often don't like pink, *definitely* don't like dresses, and are annoyed by Peach in general.
But I'm not. She's my favorite. I know she's kind of stereotypical, but I like her a lot. She's a character that, to me, represents a hidden toughness under shameless femininity. She likes pink. She likes baking. She's sweet in personality. And for someone who also likes pink and baking and being sweet, I wish we had more of it. Because in an attempt to break the stereotypical woman mold, I believe there's been a new one in place for a while now --one that further embraces the idea of being a little soft as being cringeworthy and weak.
and, if nothing else, at least the newer movie portrays Peach's balance of gentleness and combativeness. :]
@@Lunar_willoww Yeah, I've noticed that too! When I was in college, on many occasions, I was the only girl who was wearing a dress out of any of my female classmates. I'm also a traditionally feminine woman who loves pink and baking and dresses, and I often feel like girls today are societally pressured _not_ to act that way. I certainly felt that way growing up- feeling like I shouldn't be wearing dresses and should be wearing more neutral colors instead of pink. But know, I'm embracing my true self and being as girly as I can!
And I love Princess Peach because she's unabashedly feminine, but she's still strong, capable, athletic, and keeps a positive outlook in spite of all that has happened to her.
Super princess peach probably has one of my favorite openings to any Mario game. Most Mario openings are super fast. There’s like a 30 second cut scene and then you’re off but this game takes a bit more of it’s time. Reminds me of galaxy 1s opening in that way. It’s kind of cool to actually see bowser planing his attack before hand and to see things from the enemies point of view
Almost as good as the ending
6:27
you can also just press X to grab an enemy and then press DOWN to eat the enemy, wich will fill your vibe bar
Note on the Thwomp section: You don't have to match UP with the statue. You only have to mimic the pose of a statue, anywhere you want. You aren't hiding behind states, you are convincing the Thwomp that you are another statue.
I'm going to make a Super Princess Peach review Bingo. Everyone always says the same things about the game. "It's sexist" ? Check. "HAHA GUYS THEY MADE A VIBRATOR JOKE" ? Check.
If you think about it, this kinda goes against the stereotype, since peach has complete control of her emotions, being able to switch between them at the drop of a hat.
There is one thing I would like to bring up which is the whole argument of peach having emotional powers being "sexist" I can kind of see why some people would find it sexist however if you actually consider the context I think it's quite the opposite. Bowser is using the vibe Sceptor to manipulate everyone's emotions and peach is the only character still in control of them. It's painted as a strength of her character rather then a weakness. She has more control over her emotions then mario and luigi.
How the fuck is "making a Peach game where she uses her emotions" sexist???
"They sold perfume with the game" Do you know what target demographics are?
Because showing femininity is sexist. Women should just be stoic like men and wear axe deodorant if they want to equal.
The Koopalings were going to be in this game but were cut.
The would've been fighting order of the Koopalings:
Petey Piranha = Iggy
Hoo = Morton
King Boo = Lemmy
Wiggler = Ludwig
Gooper Blooper = Roy
Blizzaurus = Wendy
Giant Kamek = Larry
This game is SUPER fun, I don't care what anyone says or how "controversial" it appears on the surface, dig a little deeper and you will find much to appreciate!!
I think all the people who dislike this game probably just exaggerate a lot about it. Yes, Peach's abilities in this game are rather simple, and "stereotypical", but... that's because it's a Mario game it's supposed to be just cute and fun. Don't look too deep into it.
Anyway I think this game is decent, the graphics are nice, the controls are good, the level design us decent, and I like how it uses the slide ability. Some of the music is quite nice as well.
Fuck the Final Boss though they never told you that toads were all that important to collect, to be able to play the final boss level. And because of that, I did not beat this game I ain't going back just to find toads.
I loved super princess peach, and like many other in the comments, had no idea it was controversial haha
The art style feels very reminiscent of the Mario & Luigi games, and some sprites in this video honestly looked pretty much directly copied from those games. But that’s not a bad thing, because the art style of the Mario & Luigi games is heavenly
I noticed that too! The art work in this game is some of the best I’ve seen in a DS game and it was 2005.
@@JeffCompass I noticed that the Koopa Troopa designs are straight out of Yoshi's Island.
It also takes a HEAVY dose of Yoshi's Island influence, it's an extremely similar art style and some things look practically identical.
I'm surprised its been so long between Peach games tbh, this game originally made a splash from what I remembered
1:05 I will not stand for dark moon slander that game runs circles around the original
The vibe scepter ending always makes me lose my shit what the actual hell
F In the chats for the parents whose didn't found the vibe specter...
Solution to the sexist problem: Just add a boy character into the game. Mallow or Toad would fit that role nicely.
It’s so funny how much i agree with this video. Especially with the whole “grab all the collectibles to complete the game” trope that (hopefully) has died out by now. And it’s a reason why i also didn’t complete this game.
good video btw, can’t wait to see more
I will now look at Mario 2 as a Peach game. thank you ❤
Great video! Your stuff just oozes quality and passion! Keep up the great work!
Also, I just remembered that I wanted this game when I was a kid and my mom wouldn't let me buy it because it was a "girl game"...
Thank you!
The 19th amendment crawled so that Super Princess Peach can fall off the elevator
14:11 NO WAIT LET HIM COOK LET HIM COOK 🔥🎤
Say what you want about this game but it has way better and more creative bosses then the entirety of the new super Mario Bros series (and possibly Mario wonder considering some things I’ve heard about that games bosses)
Super Smash Bros. Brawl actually agrees with super Mario Bros. 2 being a peach game, in honour of the game giving her the float and turnip moves, you start as peach with the Super Mario Bros. 2 masterpiece
Showtime not Showdown.
18:50 what was the word? What did they put in the game? If you can't spell out the word, can you at least use a code word for it?
Don't dis Luigi's mansion 2
Do you live stream? You're very entertaining bro👀
I used to! If I ever end up being able to dedicate my full time to content creation I’d love to do it again.
I always pick Peach in Mario Kart 8. I think her animations in Super Mario Wonder are so funny and have so much more character than the others. Her meow in 3D World cracks me up too.
I'm a straight dude too. I just would rather play as Peach bc she's more entertaining to me than Mario.
Just like Link is more interesting than Zelda. I just get a kick out of Peach
Incredible determination to even finish this game. I know me, and I'd spend about 15 minutes with this game before putting it through a shredder. Great video as always!
Thanks Pi!
You know, that makes me so frustrated I dislike when games make you collect a certain number of things to finish the game...... Jet Force Gemini is like that were you need to collect all the tribals to do the final level. 🤮🤮
W!!! VIDEO SIR, you get a subscribe from me!
Thank you!
First Comment, I can't see what you cook up with this game take.
Like I said when I first watched your videos: You have 1 million subscriber quality content. Keep up the grind. Personally, I don't think that it's "sexist" women often express their emotions then men do. I grew up with a single mom and so I can be more emotional than a lot of women but it's like that social psychology study that men are more agro and women are more emotional. And you got Peach attacking physically and being emotional the whole game taking a "man" and "woman" role.
I will say the "Vibe Sceptor" or (Vibrator for you know what) makes this game really weird and idk how they got away with this lmao. Also having to 100% a game before the credits screen and final boss is very lame. 100% playthroughs should always be an option not forced on the player so it feels rewarding when you beat the game but brings more euphoria when you actually 100% it and beat it, it almost makes you feel no more powerful than anyone else who beat the game because everyone 100%'d the game who beat it.
I appreciate your compliment! The grind will continue as long as it takes.
Stop paying attention to leftists and game journalists
