There’s no question that Bowsette, the odd Peach/Bowser crossover character introduced in both Super Smash Bros. Ultimate and Super Mario Bros.

This comes from a report provided by Kotaku, who notes that pictures and artwork featuring the ghostly mix of Boo and Peach has begun making the rounds. And it’s really racking up those social media views, suggesting that a potential battle between Bowsette and Boosette may be on the horizon. (That might be confusing for some, considering just how close those names are together.)

The site shared a few social media posts featuring the cute, ghostly character, which you can see for yourself below.

Could we be seeing another Nintendo trend on the rise? We’ll see how it goes over the next few days. But Boosette might just be taking over Bowsette‘s territory. (Yes, already.)

Super Smash Bros. Ultimate arrives on December 7. Meanwhile, Super Mario Bros. U Deluxe hits Nintendo Switch on January 11, 2019.
