Fans can now download the demo, which allows them to sample two of the transformations Princess Peach embodies in the full game: Swordfighter Peach, which turns gameplay into a hack 'n slash, and Patissiere Peach, which offers a minigame-style experience where players must stack carts with cookies and decorate big cakes.
WTMG's Oliver Shellding: "I absolutely love this for Peach. She’s a fantastic character, and her personality really shined in Super Mario Odyssey, The Super Mario Bros Movie and here, now, with Princess Peach: Showtime! This is such a trip of a title where it feels like the player is doing absolutely everything under the sun. You get to have that passion for every incarnation for just a short time, then move on to something different. Being able to sample so many interactions and scenarios keeps the game fresh from start to finish, allowing players to revel and replay the plays they enjoy and just quickly bust through the ones they don’t. There’s charm, there’s cuteness, there’s a generous difficulty curve and there’s a plot that passes the Bechdel test. This is the right step forward for Peach into the spotlight, and I hope Showtime! is the first of many more adventures to come."
"Princess Peach: Showtime! is a casual romp that explores a range of mechanics in a short, but perfectly crafted, slice of Nintendo."

In terms of game software sales, Final Fantasy VII Rebirth ranks first with 310,596 copies, followed by Princess Peach Showtime! was in second place with 104,820 units, and Rise of the Ronin was in third place with 84,785 units.
In addition, Dragon's Dogma 2 and Unicorn Overlord also made it into the ranking, making the top 5 monthly software titles all new titles for the first time in 2 years and 5 months.
What’s the total I want to know? Like it could be slow sales for that month. I’m hoping it’s total is better than FF16.
Rise of the Ronin, Rebirth and Unicorn Overlord are all fantastic games that I would recommend to anyone one.
Don't listen to the BS about Ronin it's fantastic.
Time to pirate the Demo and play it on Yuzu.
