    To be honest, I hope they create a limited physical edition of all three games in a trilogy instead of just doing mother 3, I would love to be able to purchase the games separately rather than just playing them through the switch online service, it just makes the games seem more like whole experiences and I want a way to buy them and keep them rather than just paying a fee to rent them.

Earthbound takes nearly everything that made Earthbound Beginnings great and vastly improves upon it. Mother 3 is quite different from the other two, but is awesome in its own right.

  • @arc8216
    @arc8216 3 роки тому +3

    I have the impression Nintendo isn't really too proud of the series. Even in the original release back in 1994 they had to pack a game guide with it probably because they thought the target audience would find the game too confusing. With Mother 3, Besides the whole Magypsie thing they also had a lot of adult jokes that a lot of people wouldn't find okay today.
    Nintendo really likes the philosophy of producing very simplistic easy to pick up family friendly games.

    • @CameronAllOneWord

The switch needs its adult games too and it's so unfair that a game that is defined by it's deep and emotionally complex story is held back BECAUSE of it.🙄🙄

    I played Undertale (yes, yes I know mother fans hate when you compare the two but bare with me) and absolutely loved it.
    Then recently I heard Toby fox drew inspiration from the mother series, I also heard all the mother fans mad at everyone comparing the two (including my best friend), and he gripes about how the series gets no love since he was 10, so I decided to check it out last month.
    To my surprise the earthbound series became some of the most interesting and compelling games I've ever played. I blasted through mother 2 and 3. It kept me interested in a way that even new fancy triple A titles like RDR2, HZD and Star Wars: Fallen Order, didn't. In fact when I started playing Mother 2, I was in the middle of RDR2. I was so enthralled by M2 I dropped it and went on a mother binge. Now I'm that friend that complains when people compare Undertale to Mother.

      Well I really do appreciate the fact that you actually watched and read the title before blindly declaring that it aged poorly since I never said it would never come just that Nintendo was being weird about it(5 years is weird)
      I did neglect the Beatles music but it wasn’t a problem on the Wii U, 3DS, or SNES classic so I don’t think that’s why there was such a long wait.
      Hopefully Nintendo just releases the third game once and for all even though I worry they’ll censor things leaving the Starman.net translation as the superior way to play the game

    The biggest and most likely reason I don’t think Mother 3 has been officially localized is that it’s too hard of work for too little reward. Mother 3’s text was hard coded into the game. Making simply going in and changing some strings near impossible. This was stated by the fan translation’s leader. While Mother is indeed popular here in the west, it still isn’t popular enough to warrant that much work in the eyes of Nintendo. Plus, with Iwata and Reggie gone, there really isn’t anyone at Nintendo pushing to bring Mother 3 to the west.

    Sometimes it feels like Nintendo just go out of their way to not listen to the fans. Why can't I play more N64, gamecube, wii games on the switch ? Not third party ones, but things like metroid prime, star fox adventures, windwaker, donkey kong 64 etc. I mean why wouldn't they sell them. Even if they sold them 15 bucks each they'd make a fortune and we'd be happy but no lol instead they put out mario 3D all stars with no mario galaxy 2 + as a limited release lol i just don't understand

    • @kwagz3314

      It’s definitely a game that takes a lot of patience. My suggestion would be to try your best to see it through to the end and if you still aren’t enjoying, it just might not be your thing. It certainly is a different game than what most people are comfortable with. While I think it’s an amazing game, I know not everyone will think that. You don’t even have to take my suggestion into account. Just do whatever you feel is right for you.

    • @Rhubarb120
      @Rhubarb120 3 роки тому +1

      I found that the fan translation of Mother 3 is the best place to start, as the story and gameplay is more engaging as soon as the game starts. It also has a more forgiving learning curve for newcomers. Also, if you are still having trouble with the difficulty, Mother 3 being only accessible on an emulator means having access to savestates, if that is your thing.

      It really did. Nintendo was in fact weird about Earthbound on the Switch. Never did I say in the video or title that the first two games would never come. The entire video is talking about how they will come but trying to grasp Nintendo’s backwards logic of adding so many obscure games that they had to pay for before adding the first two Earthbound titles.

    I remember when it came out and we all knew about it because it had the GIANT box. We all wanted to try it but it had the big box because it came along with the game strategy guide and the price reflected that so it was hard for anyone to talk the parents into buying a game SNES game for $70
