Peach's main role is to play Mario's damsel-in-distress, usually being kidnapped by the evil king of the Koopas, Bowser. This aspect of her character has been the subject of parody, including self-parody in games such as the Paper Mario series, in which her frequent kidnappings have resulted in her learning to plan ahead for the occasion. Peach is friends of Mario and Luigi and has been portrayed to be Mario's love interest. Peach also has a sidekick named Princess Daisy and are said to be best friends.
Peach first became a playable character in the North American Super Mario Bros. 2. Later playable appearances include Super Smash Bros. Melee and Brawl, Super Mario RPG, and Super Paper Mario, in addition to her appearances in numerous Mario-themed sports games. She has also starred in her own platforming game, Super Princess Peach, in which the classic roles are reversed and she adventures to save Mario and Luigi.
Princess Peach was, at one point, considered for inclusion as a secret opponent in the Wii game Punch-Out!!. The idea was nixed due to the possible negative perception of violence against women. Though this might seem odd given Peach's inclusion in the Super Smash Bros. series, the characters in Punch-Out!! become very visibly bruised and battered during fights, lending the violence more realism than the arcade absurdity of the Smash Bros. series. Peach's inclusion was dropped in favor of another well-known Nintendo character.
Peach has had various voice actresses over the years. Her first voice appearance was in 1986 in the Japanese anime Super Mario Bros. Peach-Hime Kyushutsu Dai Sakusen! (Super Mario Bros. The Great Mission to Rescue Princess Peach) and was voiced by Mami Yamase, a pop singer. In The Super Mario Bros. Super Show! Peach generally was voiced by Jeannie Elias. Tracey Moore did Peach's voice in the cartoons The Adventures of Super Mario Bros. 3 and Super Mario World.

Overview
Princess Peach is the princess of the Mushroom Kingdom. She was created by Shigeru Miyamoto and first appeared in the game Super Mario Bros. Outside of Japan, Peach was named "Princess Toadstool," ostensibly because Nintendo's western offices felt that it was a more appropriate name for the princess of the Mushroom Kingdom. This western naming convention remained in place until the western release of the game Yoshi's Safari, which became the first game to use her original name outside of Japan. Peach frequently plays a key supporting role in the plots of the Mario games, and in some games is featured as a playable character.
