Peach is a princess, muse of the adventures of Mario since the very first chapter of the series, Nintendo dating back to 1985. He spent most of the last three decades imprisoned in the castles of the evil Bowser, with the mustachioed plumber in overalls constantly looking for it. An undertaking that, in the majority of cases, ended without the hoped for success. Because Mario is a romantic hero of modern times, the incarnation, the gaming of a noble soul, willing to do anything and ready to challenge adversity in order to save his beloved.
Thank You Mario! But Our Princess Is In Another Castle!
Peach makes cakes…
With the launch of Super Mario Run (of more than 10 million downloads in 24 hours on iOS), however, something has changed: Peach is the cakes, this is unacceptable. Nintendo accused of sexism. Is the chaos. The success of the title is in danger of becoming a boomerang, resulting in a loss of image that the japanese company does not need. Not at this time, especially after the flop that is registered with the Wii U console and a few months since the launch of the Switch. From the pages of Recode part of the prosecution, collection, and bounced even from the Bend. On social he speaks and this will be discussed with the playful tones and surface typical of the meme. The bomb was dropped. Peach is doing your cakes. Is unacceptable.
… and runs as Mario
Although they may want to engage in the discussion starting from the assumption that baking cakes is an activity of degrading, and not noble, it should be noted that, within Super Mario Run, Peach not only has a passive role (as opposed to access, for example, in the first titles of the saga). the Is among the unlockable able and playable characters, along with Luigi, Yoshi, Toad, and Toadette, this last another representative of the female universe, although in the form of fungus anthropomorphic. Those who are not really dry in terms of videogame culture will also remind its presence from the show in various iterations of the series, Mario Kart, Super Smash Bros. and Mario Party, as in Super Princess Peach for DS, the star.
Catch a glimpse of in a mobile game as to Nintendo a threat, a sexist, a tool of propaganda sexist or discriminatory is quite out of place. It is recommended that critical gaming to frantic search of the flame take a look at other productions, perhaps less known to non-employees in the sector. Dead or Alive, to name one. There, without a doubt, cakes are not if they find it.
