Princess Peach has been a mainstream ''Mario'' character since her first appearance in ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]'', in which Mario had to rescue her from the clutches of the evil [[Bowser]]. She usually takes on the role of the damsel-in-distress, though she has been known to help out Mario on several occasions. For example, in ''{{s|mariowiki|Super Princess Peach}}'', it's her turn to save Mario, [[Luigi]] and [[Toad]] from Bowser. She resides in [[Princess Peach's Castle|her castle]] along with many Toads, which are her loyal servants. Her first playable appearance, however, was in ''[[Super Mario Bros. 2]]'', where she had to help save the dream world known as [[Subcon]] along with Mario, Luigi and Toad. She has also appeared in ''Mario'' spin-offs such as ''{{iw|mariowiki|Mario Kart|series}}'', ''{{iw|mariowiki|Mario Party|series}}'', ''{{iw|mariowiki|Mario Tennis|series}}'', and ''{{iw|mariowiki|Mario Golf|series}}''. Peach also had a starring role in ''Super Mario 3D World'' as a playable character, where she, along with the Mario Bros. and Toad, travel to the Sprixie Kingdom to try and save the Sprixie Princesses from Bowser, who took over their kingdom.

She reprises her role as a playable character in ''Super Mario Bros. Wonder'', this time having to save the Flower Kingdom after Bowser attacks it while she's on a visit there. A new game starring Peach, titled ''{{iw|mariowiki|Princess Peach: Showtime!}}'', has been announced to release in March of 2024. | ||
Much like [[Bowser]], Peach has shown certain defining character traits depending on the game and adaptation. While many mainstream adaptations do not depict Peach with prominent character traits, some media such as ''{{iw|mariowiki|Super Mario 64}}'', ''{{s|mariowiki|The Super Mario Bros. Movie}}'', and the RPG spinoffs depict her as a wise ruler and the voice of reason among Mario's companions. ''{{iw|mariowiki|Super Mario Odyssey}}'', in fact, depicts Peach as an independent-minded and adventurous woman by having her defy the common trope of her and Mario sharing a romantic ending, as she chooses to go on adventures and see the world after her rescue rather than accept Mario's (or Bowser's) marriage proposal. Peach often shows a playful side, much like Mario himself, and the ''Super Smash Bros.'' series builds on this by depicting her as flirtatious and "sassy" in her taunts and victory poses, finding amusement in battle and victory. | Much like [[Bowser]], Peach has shown certain defining character traits depending on the game and adaptation.

*In all of her ''Smash Bros.'' appearances, Peach is depicted with a blue-gemmed ring on her left middle finger. The only time she has ever been seen wearing a ring in the ''Mario'' series is [[mariowiki::File:M-ariosunshine719_gcn_art4-jpg.jpg|in ''Super Mario Sunshine'']], though even then, the ring is a different color (red) and worn on the opposite hand. | *In all of her ''Smash Bros.'' appearances, Peach is depicted with a blue-gemmed ring on her left middle finger.
