Royal Flush: Princess Sidestory

 is a game released on the Atari-Nintendo Video Advanced System, released in 1989. Just consider this to be a mix between OTL’s SMB3 ROM hacks such as Present Panic - A Princess Adventure, Peach & Daisy in The Ultimate Quest, and of course, Royal Flush - Princess Sidestory. In 2000, it was rereleased as "Royal Flush Deluxe", which is packaged with SMB2 Deluxe in a separate cartridge.

Instruction Manual Intro:
Salutations! My name's Princess Toadstool, and when I'm not around helping the Mario brothers as usual, I just happen to do some stuff around the castle of the Mushroom Kingdom. As far as I'm concerned, nothing strange has happened today. "Princess Toadstool! We need to talk!" "What do you mean?"

"There must've been a strange occurrence going around the Mushroom World, and it's caused by the Mysterious Kingdom, ruled by the mysterious Duchess Zaffiro!" "Don't worry, my fellow servant! Looks like I'm gonna have to get to the bottom of this!" "Good luck, Princess Toadstool!"

Animated Royal Flush Deluxe Intro:
It begins with a recap of SMB2, which transitions to Peach relaxing. Paratoad then shows up and hands her a letter, which transitions to mysterious events happening everywhere, starting with the Mysterious Kingdom. With Mario and Luigi missing, she decides to get to the bottom of this with Daisy as her partner. She is followed by a mysterious dog named Kibidango on her quest to solve the problem.

The Rest of the Story:
Peach and Daisy battled on through Duchess Zaffiro's forces. Kibidango attempts to sabotage their plans by warning the elite members of the army, but the elite still failed. After defeating the duchess, Princess Shroomla is freed, but the dog reveals himself to be Prince Haru. He then breaks a chest, revealing a map which he steals, and he gets away before anyone could do anything. Shroomla thanks Peach and Daisy for their bravery and the two princesses go back to the Mushroom Kingdom. In Royal Flush Deluxe, an additional scene is that over the course of the game, Luigi had to save Mario from the clutches of Napoleon Knight and Princess Onyx. They then decide to book a trip to Dinosaur Land a week from now to relax, with Pauline joining in.

Gameplay
The gameplay is similar to TLoWZ, except this time, Peach and Daisy are the only playable characters. Peach has her glide ability while Daisy has a double jump which is done by pressing A in midair.
