Description
Old school Peach:"Is that what I'm changed into now...?"New Peach:"Is that what I used to look like...?"
Originally, I found that the princess's name was always 'Peach', even when she was a redhead. 'Toadstool' was the name she was referred to in the US with earlier games and in the animated show.

I'm probably the only one, but I liked her better as a redhead. The animation was quite, er, different then vs. what we're used to seeing in Japanese animation now, but the fact that there aren't too many princesses out there with red hair (aside from Ariel) is what drew me to Toadst, er, old-school Peach's appearance. I also like the old dress better. I'm not fully sure what the point in turning Peach into a blonde was for, as they could have kept her a redhead and just improved on the was she's drawn easily. Nothing against blondes, but all princesses/heroines/mermaids don't have to have long blonde hair and blue eyes.
I found another one with a similar idea that I thought was funny.

If you ask me, I would go for the redhead Princess Toadstool, but keep the name Peach.

She was always blonde in Japan.Β I guess due to hardware limitations of the early NES/Famicom games was the reason that she was a redhead in-game in the original Super Mario Bros.Β Anyway, nice pic of both redhead and blonde Peach, although I like redhead Peach (or I should say Dic's Princess Peach) a hell of a lot more.

Peach: Who are you?
Modern Peach: Who am I? I'm princess toadstool. Now you don't belong here. You go in your own time. (looks around) Wait maybe I should takeover this place. King koopa, you got some takeover to do.
King koopa: That's right. Now I got this future me.
me: (cover in tape)Β
King Koopa: HA! Koopa packs attack!
Minions: (capture Mario, Luigi, future minions, koopalings and junior (tooks all junior's power away))
(My castle turns into modern king koopa's castle)
Peach: Heh? I'm sorry guys. I must sign this kingdom to king koopa.
(Door shut)

Modern minions: Where you going? (wrap junior up in ropes) No one can't save you now. (throws him into prison)
Peach: (sigh) Alright King Koopa here you go.
Theodore: No your not. (grabs the paper) Now I must run like Alvin's plan. (runs)
King Koopa: What? Koopa packs attack that little chipmunk.Β
(Koopa's packs chase theodore)Β
Theodore: Maybe the plan will not work.
(Prison)
me: (cover in tape) (thinking in mind: This is all your fault son. You shouldn't bring all the modern time to takeover here. You're grounded when ever everything is back to normal)
Alvin: (got out of the hole) Phew. (looks at Bowser and Bowser jr) Don't worry guys I will save you. Accrecording to my plan. (chewing the ropes)

Maybe I'm the only one.
But I prefer blonde new Peach.
The older looked like a taller Cooking Mama with longer hair.

I love Toadstool's personality in the TV show.

Same here but I thought it was brown.Β I guessed she dyed her hair back in the 80's.
π: 0 β©: 1
or she bleached it in the late 90s

Nope. Not the only one, I prefer the redheaded Princess Toadstool over the blonde Peach.
To be honest, I still call her Toadstool even today.

I like redheads better, so I prefer her old design.
I think old-school Peach should return as maybe Peach from an alternate dimension, maybe named Scarlet.

You're not the only one, I prefer her with red hair too since that's the way she was introduced back in the first NES game lol
When I was showing a friend's kids the old Mario cartoon because they are big Mario fans they asked me why Peach changed her hair when she looked better as a red head over a blonde XD I found that rather funny considering they've only played Mario from the DS games and on.

At first when I saw this show I though she was Princess Daisy
Then I realised she was infact Peach... ._.

Princess Toadstool IS Princess Peach... or at least that is what I thought when watching this show.

ha, that's great. A fun comparative look between the old design and the current. I find myself missing the old cartoon design more and more these days!

She was always a blonde in Japanese materials (illustrations, the SMB anime, etc). I think she was changed into a redhead based on her NES SMB sprites (probably due to graphical limitations).

i think they changed her look so she wouldn't look like her counterpart Princess Daisy... I think.

I've also recently heard that there were limited colors available for the original game console, which is why Peach appeared as a redhead. Even Link, from the old Legend of Zelda games, appears as a brunette.

I like link as a brunette better too

yah... but they probably should have left her as a red head then...
