The Mystery of Princess Peach's Origins: Exploring The Possibilities

A sequel to The Super Mario Bros Movie will have the opportunity to explain where Princess Peach came from before the Mushroom Kingdom. This article examines the various theories and possibilities of Princess Peach's origins, including connections to different worlds and characters within the Mario franchise.

Princess Peach May Be From 'Our' World In The Mario Movie

Princess Peach's origins have long been a mystery, with the 2023 Illumination movie providing some hints about her arrival in the Toads' kingdom through a warp pipe when she was a baby. This has led to speculation about her origins before coming to the Mushroom Kingdom.

In The Super Mario Bros Movie, Mario suggested that Peach could be from Earth, the only world where humans live in the Mario movie universe. The possibility of Peach being from New York, just like Mario and Luigi, opens up an intriguing avenue for exploring her backstory.

Despite the lack of concrete information about Peach's home, the first movie's mention of countless worlds and Peach's response to Mario's question could imply that her birthplace may be a new world introduced in The Super Mario Bros Movie 2.

Peach May Have Been Born In Metro Kingdom

The introduction of Metro City, the world containing New Donk City, in Super Mario Odyssey presents a compelling theory about Peach's origins. The connections between Metro Kingdom and Kong Kingdom, as established in The Super Mario Bros Movie, provide a possible link to Peach's past.

The movie's alteration of Donkey Kong's lineage and the introduction of Cranky Kong as Donkey Kong's father suggest that Peach's arrival in the Mushroom Kingdom may have been tied to Cranky's past actions, possibly involving the kidnapping of Pauline.

The sequel could explore the idea that Peach ended up in the Mushroom Kingdom as a result of being swept up in the events surrounding Cranky Kong's actions, potentially revealing a connection between Peach and Pauline.

Peach Could Be From Wario's Diamond City

The villain Wario's origins in Diamond City present an interesting possibility for Peach's birthplace. While it is typically implied that Diamond City exists on Earth, the movie's flexibility in altering canon could allow for a twist in which Diamond City becomes its own world, similar to the Mushroom Kingdom and Kong Kingdom.

Although Peach has no direct connection to Wario in the Mario games, the sequel could take creative liberties to establish an origin story that ties Peach to Diamond City, potentially bringing Wario and Waluigi into the mix.
