What do you think? The game was a beautiful master piece.. Too bad we won't receive a 4th game as the creator of it had stated. Too bad as well we didn't receive Mother 3.
I wish the series would wake up more. its a game released in the 80s-90s I know. but I'm glad people today are still on and about earthbound with the cosplaying, fanart, music even! I'm hope it'll rise more, with many PK love! ~wicked lung cougar out..
@cahill39 not really, In japan one of the tag lines was "the world could be saved with a mother's love". If you think about most of the endings of the games illistrate this idea Mother One= you defeat Giegue (giygas) by singing the song his surrogate would sing to him. Mother 2= the whole umblical chord floors and fetus thing.....and when one of the last people to pray for you is Ness' mother. Mother 3= Claus' mother collecting him and saving him from eternal evil (Giygas/Porky's fate)
Not so much that they didn't want people to know about it. They just didn't want people to be discouraged from buying a sequal to a game that didn't even come out in America.
the reason they didnt release it was because it would have released on the launch date of the SNES. This almost stopped mother 2. that was also mother 64 wasnt even ever completed, the team wasnt used to the 3D graphics, they had it on the 64DD, got so many setbacks that it was canceled. so with mother 3 the were just like screw it, no america release
Your eyes are not deceving you, as I also see the funny Japanese boy dressed as a dog playing the clarinet. Then again, you could get away with just about anything in the 80s.
EarthBound Zero never had a fan translation. Back then Nintendo was going to release the game and it was going to be called EarthBound. But it didn't come out. If EarthBound Zero was released, EarthBound on the SNES would be called EarthBound 2.
I have to agree. For some reason 8-melodies is really emotionally powerful. ^.^ (... or maybe it isn't. I might just be biased since I'm a huge fan. D: )
As I get older and older, this series is meaning much more to me then any other series in the world of gaming.

At least Mother 3 was made, just play the fan translation.
That Pollyanna performance was just excellent, and amongst my favorite playings of that song now.
I'm surprised that they finally orchestrated music from the Mother series. I hope they have done ones for Earthbound.
Love is the power
Love is the glory
Love is the beauty and the joy of spring
Love is the magic
Love is the story
Love is the melody we all can sing
Mother/Earthbound has one of the greatest soundtracks of all time.
Take a melody, simple as can be. Give it some words and sweet harmony...
Raise your voices, all day long now, love grows songs now, sing a melody of love
oh love

~wicked lung cougar out..
The music in these Mother games is great. It went beyond just blending with the themes of many moments in the game. It enhanced them greatly.
Its its its....
Beautiful...
Oh my...
Don't you love how at the beginning there coming out of playing Zelda
I demand to see this full song!
Even watching it being played, it seems so laid back, flipping music sheet and having good times! har :3
I believe the Morning Sun is always gonna shine again
...aaaaaand....
this is so amazing. I will listen to this all day now
Wow! This is wonderful. I love it!
now thats some great Earthbound history:)
thanks guys!:D
Favorited. That was awesome.
OMG SO AWESOME!
Why is this just so awesome! O yeah, It's cus it's Mother!!!
That is so awesome... Pollyanna
I love the cowboy and the clarinet playing dog.
EPIC! This is great!
*-* AWSOME
They did a good job. :D
Oh, if only my concert band played this music!
Wow. That's SWEET.
With enough money, anything is possible... and a gun, they help.
Thanks:)

The Dog is from Duck Hunt, which they played earlier.
Your subscription to 'starmennet' has been added.
i loled at the guy in the dog suit so hard!
otherwise, this is a great orchestration!
This version of Pollyanna makes me think of a Mariachi Band
@starfruity2009 Second half are the eight melodies from MOTHER1/ Earthbound Zero. SSBM wasn't out in the '80's.
Mother has the best video game music..no...Mother has the best MUSIC ever!
I saw Flint :D
...and someone in a dog suit
...Japan is so much more awesome than us to have bands playing VG music.
I could do a mean solo of the eight melodies
@legogamer98 Is Duck Hunt even Nintendo? Are you serious? That was a first-party gimmick game for the Zapper.
adoro esta canción
...
I wonder if I can bribe my school to have the orchestra play this next year...

@cahill39 In North America the games are called Earth bound..... the tag line for that? "We are all bound to Mother Earth"
OMG MOTHER MOTHER MOTHER MOTHER!

Random guy in a dog suit.
If anyone has a Nico Nico Douga account, their videos are available on there in their entirety! Really awesome stuff. :D

i newer knew that flint played trumpet...
When was this done? :D

LOOOOOOOOOOVE Pollyanna. :)
Why is there a yellow dog disguise custome at 0:45, or what's that?
I don't think this is an orchestra...it looks more like a concert band. :o Still awesome!
Woo! Pollyana!
Wait a minute wasn't the second half onett?
I would become a professional band instructor just to do this kind of stuff.
o mi god im moving to Japan
is it actually earthbound zero
or is it mother 1 renamed earthbound zero in a fan translation?
ive never seen "earthbound zero" playing on an NES
People wearing cat and dog suits in an Orchestra, sounds about right.
I wanna be in this band TT__TT
Yetlon (Makurokurosken) SAME
Why oh why can't my band class play this?
Why can't stuff like this happen in my country?
No it was an official translation that changed it to Earthbound.
together, we can spam nintendo enough that they will have to put earthbound on virtual console
omomon already happened m8 ah I love the future 🤣
Hmm. So this just pops up?
POLLYANNA!!!!
so why didn't they translate it for the ds instead?
Long live mother! Even if nintenbo of america are idiots and won't release them in here! Hell yeah for roms!
That's not really possible due to so many copyrights
Back when Nintendo cared...
go to earthbound central . com
there is a mp3 of this.
I have to agree. For some reason 8-melodies is really emotionally powerful. ^.^ (... or maybe it isn't. I might just be biased since I'm a huge fan. D: )
To me, at least, it almost looks like a high school band, but I'm no expert on Japanese education.
Why is that one dude in a dog suit?
=D
A better question is, why not in a dog suit?
has um....anyone elese noticed the guy in the dog suit?
Will Reynolds yeah
Just now
Hahaha.
You bet your ass!
This isn't something recent
Actually Itoi named the series after the song "Mother" by John Lennon
