Smash Bros. fans might recall that, for whatever reason, Super Smash Bros. Brawl offered a detailed look at Princess Peach’s underpants. That doesn’t appear true for the newly released 3DS game.

As numerous gamers in Japan have pointed out on Japanese forum 2ch, it doesn’t seem possible to see, well, up Peach’s skirt. Some players will take this as a smart, progressive move on Nintendo’s part. Others will lament the loss of fan service. Maybe it’s just a sign of the times?
Instead of intricately rendered inner wear, like you’d see in Wii title Super Smash Bros. Brawl when Peach was flipped over or knocked off a platform, in Super Smash Bros. for 3DS, the inside of her skirt is cloaked in darkness. The result is legs emerging from a void.
Here is how Nintendo rendered Peach’s undergarment in the past for the Wii. Realise that there were different colours.

And now, apparently, in the latest 3DS Smash Bros.

Some Smash Bros. owners have noted that there isn’t this dark void for Peach’s tennis outfit, but they think the rationale is different: a tennis skirt isn’t really a skirt and undergarments are not exposed. M’kay!

Maybe dressing Peach in more sensible fighting wear is a better answer? I can’t imagine trying to rumble in a frock. Then again, I’ve never tried that so what do I know.

THIS IS AN OUTRAGE!
If they pull this crap on the wii u then it’s all but confirmed as UNDER-powered.
I wonder how this will bode for the upcoming amiibo 😉
Geez, there’s plenty of free porn out their guys, get your fix from that.
It’s mostly about power.
Small pic when scrolling through articles on my phone makes it look like something is swallowing Peach whole.
Um, I think smash4’s fanservice focus was on samus & shulk not peach because of what happened when the 3ds 1st came out with a free app called pokedex 3d, where you can look up the skirt of gochitelle. Plus I think nintendo wants the 3ds to be kid friendly, with limited amoubt of fanservice games being released for it
That’s like saying you can’t see Marios’ nuts properly.
It’s fine guys, everything is as intended, peach just hasn’t shaved downstairs in a while and nintendo aren’t particularly good at rendering hair. You could probably see her panties were it not for the overgrowth.
This is perhaps the most Brian Ashcrafty article you could ever hope for.
I know. It feels like forever since we last had a good Bashcraft Pantsu article.
