What The HECK Was That Ending... 

Remember that odd line Peach said in the Mario Movie when Mario asked if she was from his world? "There's a huge universe out there. Hundreds of galaxies." Nintendo is playing games.

Well, now we know how the mushroom kingdom rebuilds so quickly after each Bowser attack

6:00 you can tell they made a kirby game at one point. They may not have game difficulty, but they do have that kirby charm.

And THAT'S why... She's in Super Smash Bros!

she didn't just fix the theater she changed the weather/ time of day

She turned into Rosalina 😂

Peach canonically has wish/star powers or as the manual put it white magic. This fact is mentioned here and there in games. One ability she has to is the ability to levitate objects and even herself. Such as when she levitates herself and floats through the air yes she is levitating and it's not the dress, you can still leviate without the dress see Peach in Boomerang Bros outfit. Also, seen in her Mario Tennis 64 victory, and when she flings Bowser out of the castle in Inside Story.

Peach finally got her second game🎉

I remember there being a mission where peach is giving the sour gang the WORK they deserve AND THEY START RUNNING AWAY AND SCREAMING FOR HELP??? LIKE SHE WAS NOT PLAYING 😭😭

I can't believe that peach became a pretty cure and she even got a super form

You know, after this, it is gonna be really hard to believe that Bowser can just kidnap her at all. Also, this is not the first Nintendo franchise to have a Kirby-esque Final Boss, the latest two Mystery Dungeon games (discounting remakes) did so earlier.

There is defiently gonna be a game theory about radiant peach

That Radiant Peach form should be Princess Peach's final smash for the next Super Smash Bros game

I hope we get more of Peach in this style I feel like the Mario movie inspired this version since Peach makes me think of her movie counterpart

Considering who made the games, they probably have experience with easier games meant for a more casual audience. So I could of expect some Kirby influence to the end there. But can we talk about how Peach's final from in Radiant Peach is NEARLY one to one Rosalina? The long flowing dress, the white and blues, the star bit shapes that is associated with Mario Galaxy, the cosmic level end boss, and her actual radiant nature that fits perfectly. Like, this FEELS like the type of lore that hints at something major behind Peach. Like in The Mario Movie, she might not have come from earth. And in Galaxy, this nearly ties her in as the mother of Rosalina in the story book. Like there is a surprising amount of info to chew on with this ending alone.

Aaaaaand, there’s the Nintendo signature floating hand boss

Thats an actual super Saiyan type of super form right there.

It's THE game Peach deserves. Not as any Nintendo character from the Mario franchise but as as an actual character. A princess finally getting her own aventure(s)

The thumbnail💀

its interesting that- as far as i know -the first god/celestial being to be beat in the Mario franchise was beat by Princess Peach the one to be kidnaped Bowser in every ether game

I really like Madame Grape as a villain and I hope she comes back 😍 Edit: Who am I kidding I'm obsessed with her design, SMASH!!!

Madam grape turned from evil British masked lady into a final boss of a kirby game

I'm 99% sure that Radiant Peach is NOT supposed to be in any way related to Rosalina, I think its just a coincidence.

The moment you realize, that Peach got a TRUE Super form a-la Super Sonic, before Mario and Luigi....

The ending is so cool!!! Was not expecting it to be so awesome

Matpat didn’t know how right he was

I see Grape as basically Peach's answer to Luigi's King Boo. Her Battle is basically Efflis from Forgotten Land.

The next Smash game better use this game for peaches moveset and alts! Would be a big missed opportunity not to

Radinant Peach is the exact same as Super Sonic

Why is the game so similar to kirby? Pink Main Character✅️ Transformations that Give the Abilities of Other Beings✅️ Sudden Shooter Section at the End of the Game✅️ Unexpected Demonic Horror as Final Phase of Muilti-Phase Final Boss✅️ Final Boss is at its Core A Gaint Black-Hole Like Glowing Ball✅️

This game was so much fun I loved every second of it.

For Peaches final smash,she wields a GUN.

Now if only they'll make Mario do cool stuff like THIS! The closes we got was Mario Odyssey's final boss ending, but nowhere near this calibur of an epic scale showing off pure power. It's always a gimmick of some sort.

The next 3D Mario game better give Mario a super form similar to Sonic or Goku

rosalina origins

Hope that peach keeps these new powers so she doesn't get kidnapped again by bowser 😂, wishful thinking

Thank you for finally making me want to play this game.

to everyone who doubted this game, say you're sorry right now

That Madame character gave me majora’s mask vibes. And peach's transformation I thought I could hear a little bit of a wonderful world of Disney intro.

8:00 when you look at the particles Madam Grape leaves behind, it kinda looks like the symbol of the big ennemy in Mario + rabbids : Sparks of hope. The colors look the same too. I thought about that when peach opens the door to the final boss in Rosalina style. In sparks of hope, The final boss and Rosalina are linked too. Theory time ?

Man im scared, i really want Grape to return for future games and become a main stay, kinda like Bowser for Mario or King Boo for Luigi... I want her to join spinoffs as a whole too, but im scared she wont because of the ending... I need to see more of her

The only spikes and drops of performance that I saw with the game were with the loading screens. Those were painful in some cases to watch as they stuttered with the loading screens and even twice froze apparently completely on my switch for 3 seconds. Hopefully a future update to the game will fix that issue.

I say the second part of Grape is kinda similar to Kackletta's spirit from Superstar Saga. And Radiant Peach kinda takes us back to the "Who is Rosalina's mother?" theory. In her storybook her mom kinda looks like Peach.

Good-Feel should work on the sequel for this game.

It can’t be a coincidence that Radiant Peach look like Rosalina. And in the end, what is Grape exactly ? Is she even a living creature ?

Third and second liker. Now to make an actual comment: I saw Princess Peach: Showtime! and I thought, "huh, that looks nice". But the more I looked at it my thought turned into "Mmmm... okayyyyyy" I'm not gonna get it but I'm not going to hate on it.

I do think we can see Grape return since she didn't seem to be from our world as is so after recovering she could come back to get Peach

If there’s going to be a Smash Bros 6, Radiant Peach’s dive bomb attack better be her final smash.

Grape has to be one of, if not the, most sadistic Mario villain ever.

The cosplays for this are gonna go crazy

WHY IS THERE A SECOND PHASE IN THIS FIGHT!?!

THE THUMBNAIL THOUGH…

Peach got her Super sonic transformation before Mario is crazy

I'm not sure if the ending was _that_ crazy. But given that your first encounter with an enemy are lil' purple guys slowly hopping at you, it was definitely an unexpectedly bombastic ending. It was a really good game. I want to see more of the Showtime formula, because there was a lot of setpieces and gameplay loops I'd play again. _(and if they could get that framerate right, I'd feel a whole lot better about paying $60 for it.)_

That ending looks incredible!! As a big Kirby guy, I'll have to get this game at some point!

A little part of me wants Madame Grape to return but in a “more powerful” way. But the big part of me wants to see Madame Grapes mask appear as a wall decoration in upcoming Mario-like games.

Amazing Video!

Honestly Grape's final form reminds me more of Majora's Mask than Kirby

So I saw Grape's "soul" thing as being just a bigger version of the orb we purified on the other bosses (Purrjector Cat, etc). Whether that was a soul, hard to say. I was really happy with this game though. Was hoping that this game would lay the groundwork for future Peach-centric titles, and it certainly did!

HOLY CRAP that ending looks amazing

Yeah the music is stupidly insane. Kudos to the music composer and arranger.

I'm pretty disappointed in Madame Grape because she has no motive, when her design alone seemed to imply something about her, something that could be tied to her motive, but in the end it just meant nothing. If you look at her design, her dress, hair and hat seem to be add-ons, separated from the mask and cravat, as if the real her is located behind that mask and cravat, and the rest are just accessories. And that's when a thought crossed my mind. What if, behind that mask and cravat, a member of Stella's species is hiding ? The shape fits pretty well. What if that's Grape's true self, but hiding behind that mask and these clothes to appear bigger and more menacing ? After all, Madame Grape has the power of Darkle, as stated by the game, which is in obvious opposition to the power of Sparkle, the power Stella has. So Madame Grape could be a dark equivalent to Stella's species (that I'll call Sparkles), who rejected her. Maybe she was rejected by them for her ideas of big tragedies, and then stumbled upon the power that made her a Dark Sparkle (I'll call her a Darkle). Or maybe she was always a Darkle, and because of her difference compared to all the other Sparkles AND her ideas of tragedies, she was rejected. But either way, her motive for attacking the Sparkle Theater would be the same : Revenge for getting rejected and ejected by the Sparkles and actors. And once she took control of the theater, she would create the tragedies they refused to let her create, with them as the protagonists of these tragedies, as a cruel vengance on them for shunning her. But at the end of the second phase, her real form (similar to Stella but with dark blue and purple colors) and backstory would be revealed, leading Peach and Stella to empathize with her and give her a place in the theater. Instead of Peach rebuilding it immediatly, we could have Grape show her redemption by helping to rebuild it during the credits scene and the people of the theater accepting her. Her being a Darkle is an interesting plot twist for the end, one that fits with her design since as I said, she could easily be hiding behind the mask and cravat and magically move them around, as well as the hat, the hair, the dress and the hands. All that while hiding her true self. And that plot twist easily comes with this interesting motive for her, which instantly makes her a far more deep and interesting character. It's nothing groundbreaking when it comes to character, but hey it's not nothing like in the actual game. Also it's the Mario franchise, most of its characters are simple but they work well. And simplicity doesn't mean nothing (which is what Madame Grape's motive is. Nothing). Well I'm saying that, but this can easily made deeper while keeping the same idea. Like, what if in this scenario, Grape was rejected a long, long time ago ? The people that she's mad at are all long gone, but she's still there because of her everlasting need for revenge that prevents her from leaving this world. And because of that, she enacts her revenge upon people who aren't to blame for what happened to her. She's stuck in the past and can't move on so, blinded by anger, she hurts these people who didn't do anything to her just because they're in the same roles as the ones who hurt her so long ago. She would do it as a revenge against what the ones who hurt her represented, but not actually them since they're gone, and she can't enact revenge on them, but she's still angry and still wants revenge. So she hurts their successors, the current Sparkla, and that's the reason why she kidnaps them specifically. She would see it as a just way to make their predecessors pay indirectly, she doesn't care about the Sparkla themselves, only what they represent in her eyes, aka. the ones who rejected her. That would make her a very interesting villain. But whether you like this deeper story or the more simple one where she isn't an ancient being and she does take revenge on the people who hurt her but forgives them and gets forgiven at the end, she would still be a good villain. And that backstory and motive would also help show Peach's morals, her kindness and willingness to forgive, as she would support Grape and allow her to redeem herself, as well as being accepted as part of the theater once again at the end. In the deeper version, the Sparkla could all come to apologize on behalf of their predecessors at the end and, even if they can't fix what has been done, they propose to try and start over together, to move on from the past. To which Grape accepts, as this finally makes her see the Sparkla as their own people, not just as a way to get back at people who aren't even in this world anymore. She's ready to move on. It could be a really interesting story with a theme of not letting the past dictate who you are, which could also work with Peach since in the past she was always in the back getting kidnapped without being able to do anything about it, but here she decides to not let that dictate what she can and can't do and to fight. Of course, it's Good Feel, I wouldn't expect them to write such a good character, that's why I mentioned this simpler version of her revenge motive but that's still effective. But no, in the actual game, there's nothing hiding behind Madame Grape's design, there's no deeper backstory and motive, and she just dies at the end. Also I don't understand why the people in the plays keep acting as if the plays' worlds are real, even when they're in very real danger from the Sour Bunch's attack. This makes no sense. Also the Sour Bunch fits as a name considering the motive I thought of for Grape. She's sour and resentful.

Hehehe, it seems like this Game was full of surprises, just goes to show that difficulty isn’t entirely necessary for a Game to be fun. Hm, i wonder what that Mask was implying, i hope we’ll find out.

SHOWTIME! -Dark bowser

8:40 What If Kamek Found The Mask Of Madame Grape And Took It To Bowser And Bowser Jr?

Getting the game this Friday clicking of the video for now till I beat the game

It does feel a lot like a Kirby game ending, but this is hardly the darkest thing ever seen in a Mario game, especially in the spin-offs. So i'm not sure why you're surprised

9:05 I wasnt sure on it, but now I might pick it up. Depends.

this feel like a part 2 to Mario and the thud year door I mean us fighting on a stage final boss being a dark evil queen I mean come on

Princess can fly in the final Boss because that 10 character she saved give her power to help to fight the final boss so she have the power can make her fly.

Mario after finding out about this adventure: “Why am I even needed!?”

Kirby: “You new here?”

But yet she still needs Mario to rescue her 😂😂

I could already see a sequel nay a trilogy, the first one being Showtime Daisy's debut and the next one being Showtime quad squad

It took me 3 days to beat the game. Not for any major difficulty of it's own just that I had other games to play and things to do besides just sit down and blast through the game. I'll say for a simple...we are talking KIRBY levels of simple here...gameplay set up and basically two button gameplay...I wouldn't mind seeing a sequel with more transformations and maybe some more advanced moves from the OG 10 transformations like how Kirby's transformations have gotten more than just a one button attack. First playthrough I got all the Sparkle Gems from every stage...now I gotta go through and do the boss gems since beating the game means you can fight the floor bosses at will but with special conditions to get Sparkle Gems from them. Also need to finish all the Rehearsals too, and find the ninja apprentice in each stage. There is some replay value in the game to do all that, but overall it's a good game imo, and I wouldn't mind a sequel.

The fact that peach got a super form and a power boost before Mario is wild 😭

WE MILKING CONTENT WITH THIS ONE 🗣🔥🔥🔥

The second Form looks a lot like Majora from Majoras Mask

Lady liberty peach

Majora’s Mask vibes

I honestly think that Radiant Peach and/or Super Radiant Peach is the closest thing to a Mario character going all out DBZ.

theres no was a peach game has the same intesity as a sonic game

*game theory song plays*

7:14 i didn't know peach knew the turtle hermit technique The KAMEHAMEHAAAAAA

Good game completed it in 2 sittings , just needed more depth more combos and more harder levels , but a good starting point for sequels or ninja peach , cowgirl 🤠 peach , kungfu peach and radiant peach reminded me of star fox with the movements and shooting power

I got this game on Saturday and starter playing and finishing it on Sunday.

it would just be another day for kirby

Honestly, MADOKA MAGICA VIBES!!! Just LOOK AT HER!!!

I loved this game but I was a little upset that it went by so quick for me 😭

The game is definitely very Kirby-ish (a Kirby-like? :P ) in terms of tone, cuteness, difficulty, power-ups and eldritch horror final bosses. I really like the Rosalina-esk final power-up, I've always liked Rosalina the best of the 3 princesses. Overall I had a fun time with this game, I'd recommend it if you aren't a snob about difficulty, or cuteness and this is coming from someone who loves Bloodborne.

8:07 agreed you are making a big deal over nothing

I was half expecting a post credit scene showing Bowser find Grape by showing his shadow get cast over Grape’s mask floating in the water, then cutting to black with him laughing.

This game is Looking really great

speaking of the ending the most original boss ever A GIANT HEAD WITH HANDS!!!

Projector Cat and Spotloin are the toughest boss fights!

Oh my gosh, Matpat was onto something with that old theory about peach!

2:16 believe or not, but that is in my school vr game as the form she takes fighting Wonder bowser (which is in a Chaos event and its during the fight against Lucifer Morningstar from Hazbin hotel which is baffling sense Goalius had to wear sunglasses to continue his current fight because of her)

Peach vs Majora Mask

1:01 Nice
