There was a trend a while back to redraw SMB1 Princess Peach. This one was an outlier for being goonerfied. Most were either earnest attempts to draw her better, or shitposts.
Yeah I grabbed this from a video I watched on it. A lot of them are neat
In the comments people pointed out that the original design was mirrored on the bottom to save memory and that it would have looked different on a CRT screen that blurred the colors together a bit and just generally was less boxy looking.
several of these are goonerfied, others are jarringly off-tone. Only a handful of them are better than the original because most of them have very poor art direction - despite the original being pretty lazy and half-baked. There’s also probably some technical limitations we aren’t considering, and it also had to be animated which complicates any design since it has to work in different poses and facial expressions.

Did they give this one GGs with a boob window?
and a choker, high heels, slit leg dress, no sleeves, shoulder cutouts, eye makeup
why are they like this
surprising amount of gooner designs here, I think my favorites are the codestarcreates/gyhyom ones with the big cartoon ass heads
I like clairvoire’s sprite going

~5 gooner designs but most of them are great. I like the one that’s basically Saber from Fate with the plate dress.
