Princess Peach: Showtime new gameplay, VGC

Personality, as Samuel L. Jackson once told John Travolta over lunch, goes a long way. Few games demonstrate this as acutely as Princess Peach: Showtime, a simple yet undeniably captivating variety show that we couldn t help but fall a little bit in love with. Walking into a recent Nintendo preview event, we werent quite sure what to expect from the Super Mario heroines starring role, with prerelease trailers showing a myriad of gameplay styles, and more costume changes than a Taylor Swift concert, but not how it all inks together. Showtime, it turns out, starts with Peach being invited to the Sparkle Theatre. However, when she arrives, she discovers its been taken over by the witch Madame Grape, and her gang The Sour Bunch, who have transformed each play into a tragedy. With the help of the theatre guardian Stellar and her sparkle powers, Peach is out to return the theatre to its former glory.
