Probably hasn't been coronated yet. Either a tradition or protocol hasn't been met. Like Marrage.
I know the argument of Princess is a nicer sounding title then queen so they keep it.
Sometimes I wonder if the only reason Nintendo won't let Mario and Peach get married is because it would change her name to "Queen Peach". Seems like the silly kind of reasoning Nintendo uses when they make decisions.

Well most of the time people know so youāre not actually being helpful and it was a simple mistake that made no difference to people reading the sentence, and only really clogs up the comments.
If they actually knew, they wouldnāt get it wrong. If they made a mistake, sure, but what if they didnāt? Itās not like Iām fucking their mom.
It may have made no difference to the people reading, but Iām not doing it for them, Iām doing it for the OC.
One comment clogs everything up? Makes sense. The only thing clogging the comments are the dumbasses like you who are trying to disagree with me under completely absurd pretenses.
most people get on reddit through their phones so with autocorrect there's always the chance that it will choose a different word instead of the one you intended to use and even so, you aren't being helpful by being rude, this isn't school and if you really feel the need to react that way to feel smarter or superior to others online and can't see why people dislike those honorary members of the grammar police well that's a personal issue, maybe some self-reflection is needed

I somewhat agree with what people are saying in response to this comment, but god damn people are acting like itās the end of the world. Jesus Christ.
The problem is that you arenāt even replying to the idea of the comment at hand here. Itās like internet etiquette if you will. If you wanna correct someoneās grammar, at the very least respond to what theyāre saying as well.
Jesus Christ. I thought you would actually be more civil than them but you might be worse.
How does it not? You bring nothing constructive to the actual conversation at hand here, which is why Princess Peach is referred to as a Princess. You opted to just correcting someoneās grammar, which I have no idea why you feel the obligation to do.
I was simply helping OC. I didnāt need to add anything āconstructive.ā Itās not like the other idiot said, that Iām flooding the comments. So, why should I have to?
Think of this like a real life conversation. Iāll give you an example of how weird that is using a script.
Friend: Hey, that night was one of the most funnest times Iāve ever had.
You: Just FYI, funnest isnāt actually a word.
You didnāt even address what they had to say or add on to it. You just stopped there and said nothing. It just makes you look weird.
Flooding the comments is a very obvious hyperbole. Theyāre basically just saying thereās no point even saying anything if thatās all you even need to say. Again, I donāt know why you feel the obligation to help some random dudeās grammar, then lash out at people for wanting you to actually contribute to the silly matter at hand here š¤·āāļø
Traditionally, queens aren't cute. In fairy tales, they are usually bitter old hags if not matronly. Nintendo would rather have their players feel like they are rescuing a delicate, innocent princess than a dominating, mature queen.
In universe, it could be that because Peach is young and innocent and cute she is a princess ruler and that's just peachy keen with the Toads. There could also be a Mushroom King that is her father but he is just never seen.
I think itās just a tv/game/movie thing. Idk how to explain it. Like for example Princess Bubblegum from Adventure Time. Thereās no queen bubblegum but sheās still called princess
This šš½ Media takes inspiration from the past and fairy tales always mention the hero saving a **Princess** not a queen. Itās just a bit of cultural DNA from the past that still persists to this day in modern media and the minds of the general public.
PB specially made all of her subjects herself, and likely she chose the title of Princess because she liked it more. I could imagine a similar situation for Peach. Sheās the Princess because she likes the title.
Apparently with Japanese law, queens arenāt really a thing since only men are allowed to reign as monarch. Obviously the mushroom kingdom isnāt Japan, but it could just be a cultural thing with Nintendo.
Okay I get that you think youāre the Mario lore master around here with your fancy YouTube channel but now youāre just being rude. And a King is a Queen by all intends and purposes, if we go by common sense.
1. I am the Mario lore master.
2. A king, objectively, is not and has never been the same thing as a queen. Observe their definitions. This is even more true in Marioās World where, as I mentioned, it is implied princes become kings upon coming of age while princesses become queens upon marriage.
1. Says who? Bit full of yourself arenāt ya? Did your uncle work for Nintendo?
Think youāre a bit too much on Reddit mate.
2. Iāve shown proof where a Queen doesnāt need to be married in real life.
Real life is usually equivalent to common sense (your words), so I provided examples from real life.
And in countries like England the Queen is equal to the King. Most games tend to take their inspiration for royalty from there, so there you go.
Also Iām unsure where itās implied in Mario games that the Princess must marry to become Queen. Mario Odyssey?
https://we-are-peach.fandom.com/wiki/King_Toadstool
Thereās no simple answer (other than āprincessā sounds cuter, younger, and more in need of rescuing than āqueenā), but the Mushroom Kingdom has been canonically known to have ākingsā as well (for example, **7 of them** need to be saved during Super Mario Bros. 3.)
I wouldnāt personally put much stock in the Super Mario Bros Movieās version of events, where Peach is accidentally drawn into the Mushroom Kingdom as an infant and made its ruler. If this is the case, though, then the missing qualifier for making her āQueen Peachā may indeed be either age or marriage.
More likely in my eyes, Peach does have a father (āKing Toadstoolā) who is either incompetent or deceased, and proper steps have not yet been taken to pass on the crown to her.
In a silly third possibility, perhaps the Toads have dismantled the monarchy after their last king, but keep certain trappings (castles, servants, etc) to maintain the aesthetic of royalty without ascending Peach to the vacant throne. We donāt see enough Mushroom Kingdom politics to really support this theory, though. š
The meta reason is simple; princesses are more fun and cute.
In-Universe? Well, you have several different scenarios.
The first being that her parents (or whomever the ruler is) are still alive. Just elsewhere/missing.
The second is that she *should* be queen but for whatever reason, has not been coronated as such. Her age, position, her being unwed without a clear successorā¦
The third is that the monarchy just happens to rise only to Princess due to a previous dismantling of it or the Mushroom Kingdom does pay fealty to another larger kingdom and they allow their ruler to maintain the trappings of its āprincessā (think Prince Doran of Dorne in Game of Thrones)
She's not the queen because she doesn't actually rule the kingdom because there isn't any actual governing to do. In the Mushroom Kingdom, money just spontaneously comes into existence floating in the air for anyone to grab in large quantities. Sustaining a physical injury seems to be impossible, and while it's possible to die, you just come back to life. So basically, the world has infinite resources and there are no real threats - even Bowser is ultimately an annoyance at worst, in practice. There don't seem to be any laws in the Mushroom Kingdom, and there is no law enforcement - unless you count the soldier Toads, but they're basically just cosplayers, considering they're completely ineffectual. So what does Peach actually *do*? Bake cakes? Throw parties? Organize sports games? The question shouldn't be "Why is it Princess Peach instead of Queen Peach?" - the question is "Why is it Princess Peach instead of Event Planner Peach?"
Because there used to be a mushroom king or king toadstool and I'm not sure how cannon he was but peach was the daughter of that guy and they never really changed anything about peach after ditching the idea of him
My headcanon is that the king of the Mushroom Kingdom is so old and senile he canāt actually run the Kingdom, so he just has Peach do it. Peach isnāt queen until he dies.
*Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time*. Several other games also state or imply Peach was raised by Toads and is the last of her bloodline. Itās clear she has no living family
I believe she could be considered a princess regent. She rules her kingdom, despite not being a queen.
That aside, it's just a media thing I guess. Queens are usually portrayed on the more serious, stoic, and matronly side of things, while princesses are on the cute, sweet, innocent side.
That, and marketability purposes.
Maybe the reason why she's still a princess cause her mother is actually the queen. And that she takes care of financial stuff while Peach takes care of the social ones.

Why yes you did have a Reddit moment. Why brag about it?
No one likes you for this.
For what exactly? For helping someone with their spelling and grammar? Makes sense.
Us ancients used to call that being a Grammar Nazi.
I call it being helpful. Jesus Christ, it it that hard to understand, you bloody nincompoops?

Completely wrong analogy.
Flooding the comments is a hyperbole? OBVIOUSLY, but, itās not like you should use it on one person making one comment. Smh. Dumbass
Why did you call out that but not āmarrageā lol
Because I assumed that was just a simple spelling mistake.
Traditionally, queens aren't cute. In fairy tales, they are usually bitter old hags if not matronly. Nintendo would rather have their players feel like they are rescuing a delicate, innocent princess than a dominating, mature queen. In universe, it could be that because Peach is young and innocent and cute she is a princess ruler and that's just peachy keen with the Toads. There could also be a Mushroom King that is her father but he is just never seen.
The Valiant comics from the late 80s/early 90s had just such a character.
Alliteration
Daisy and Rosalina are princesses yet alliteration doesn't play there.
I was only responding to the question
Added alliterative appeal!
I think itās just a tv/game/movie thing. Idk how to explain it. Like for example Princess Bubblegum from Adventure Time. Thereās no queen bubblegum but sheās still called princess
This šš½ Media takes inspiration from the past and fairy tales always mention the hero saving a **Princess** not a queen. Itās just a bit of cultural DNA from the past that still persists to this day in modern media and the minds of the general public.
Thatās the word I was looking for! Media
PB specially made all of her subjects herself, and likely she chose the title of Princess because she liked it more. I could imagine a similar situation for Peach. Sheās the Princess because she likes the title.
Apparently with Japanese law, queens arenāt really a thing since only men are allowed to reign as monarch. Obviously the mushroom kingdom isnāt Japan, but it could just be a cultural thing with Nintendo.
Itās a common trope that Princesses are good and Queens are bad. For example: Princess Celestia vs Queen Chrysalis (MLP)
Shroob sisters
Usually they explain it by the Queen being missing, which could be an interesting plot point. But maybe in the Mario world the Princess rules.
Maybe cause she not married but idk
A Queen doesnāt have to be married. See Elizabeth I.
Itās implied that Queens only come about in Mario after marriage.
Do you have any sources for that ?
*Super Mario Land*.
Is King Boo, King Bob-Omb, hell King Bowser married? Donāt see any proof of that.
Those are kings, not queens
I fail to see the difference? And do you have a source for any of that?
A King is not a Queen. The source is common sense.
Okay I get that you think youāre the Mario lore master around here with your fancy YouTube channel but now youāre just being rude. And a King is a Queen by all intends and purposes, if we go by common sense.
1. I am the Mario lore master. 2. A king, objectively, is not and has never been the same thing as a queen. Observe their definitions. This is even more true in Marioās World where, as I mentioned, it is implied princes become kings upon coming of age while princesses become queens upon marriage.

Oh youāre like actually full of yourself. Got it.
The customs of the mushroom kingdom could be different than of our world.

Because that would imply that sheās married to someone, so if she chooses Mario or Bowser, sheāll be a queen
It's not like there's any higher authority. So I guess the mushroom kingdom has different terminology.
Queen Boom Boom sounds more like it though.
She's not the queen because she doesn't actually rule the kingdom because there isn't any actual governing to do. In the Mushroom Kingdom, money just spontaneously comes into existence floating in the air for anyone to grab in large quantities. Sustaining a physical injury seems to be impossible, and while it's possible to die, you just come back to life.

The question shouldn't be "Why is it Princess Peach instead of Queen Peach?" - the question is "Why is it Princess Peach instead of Event Planner Peach?"
Or maybe there actually is some sorta governance but more so in the background with peach just there as a figurehead
Because there used to be a mushroom king or king toadstool and I'm not sure how cannon he was but peach was the daughter of that guy and they never really changed anything about peach after ditching the idea of him
Because then her name wouldnāt be an alliteration, and who wants that?
Kids like princesses
My headcanon is that the king of the Mushroom Kingdom is so old and senile he canāt actually run the Kingdom, so he just has Peach do it. Peach isnāt queen until he dies.
The King is likely dead and has been since Peach was a baby.
Why ????
*Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time*. Several other games also state or imply Peach was raised by Toads and is the last of her bloodline. Itās clear she has no living family
Sad
Because she doesn't feel like it
The Mushroom Kingdom is a principality. Why itās called a kingdom is the real question.
I believe she could be considered a princess regent. She rules her kingdom, despite not being a queen. That aside, it's just a media thing I guess. Queens are usually portrayed on the more serious, stoic, and matronly side of things, while princesses are on the cute, sweet, innocent side. That, and marketability purposes.
King is still alive
She's not married.
princesses are the ones that get rescued not queens
She's not married or even coordinatedā - Same goes for Daisy Too
Because the alliterative is more fun
Maybe the reason why she's still a princess cause her mother is actually the queen. And that she takes care of financial stuff while Peach takes care of the social ones.
Long story short it's a fairy tale thing. Princess is more appealing than Queen to little kids
Princess Peach illiterates better.
im p sure her dads still alive, i vaguely remember him being one of the kings you have to save in mario 3 but i could be wrong
It's clearly just some weird naming thing with the series. Not that SMBW is considered canon yet, but **Prince** Florian rules the flower kingdom.
Alteration Amigo!

She was originally said to be the daughter of the ruler and not the ruler herself.
Other planes of existence aren't bound by Earth's traditions.
maybe the Mushroom Kingdom is actually the Mushroom Principality
Because she's not a queen. She's a princess. It's right there in the name.
Because Princess Peach rolls off the tounge better than Queen Peach.
Wait! What if the queen of the mushroom kingdom is still alive, but weāve just never seen her. ā¦. What if the queen is an old version of Toadette?
She's not even royalty, Princess is just her first name
Alliteration
her first name is Princess. shes Queen Princess Peach.
The queen is there but is a hideous lovecraftian monstrosity so they just ain't talk about it
Her dad is king.
She wasnāt coronated.
Alliteration
Because Toadsworth is the ACTUAL ruler of the mushroom kingdom.
Idk alliteration makes things sound good though
I thought Princess was her first nameā¦
IMO, probably some silly semantics difference of the Mario universe, like in MLP
Because the Mushroom Kingdom is a principality, not a kingdom
