'''''Peach's Castle''''' is a Tech Demo for the [[Nintendo GameCube]]. Included as part of the Nintendo GameCube Software Development Kit, the demo was used to show developers various features of the console presented in a game. In the demo, the player controls a red arrow that can go through various rooms in a rebuilt version of Princess Peach's Castle from [[Super Mario 64]], with some limited interactivity and the ability to adjust the camera. Each room shows different graphical effects, which includes the following: large textures, bumps and shadows, anti-aliasing, local lighting, projection textures, environment mapping, and maximum polygons. | '''''Peach's Castle''''' is a Tech Demo for the [[Nintendo GameCube]].
