Last night I posted a video showing the super-giant Mr. Saturn and Itoi interacting. I found out about it because Itoi’s company put up a new section on their site for MOTHER series stuff here. So like the old days of the MOTHER 3 World site, I thought it’d be neat to try to keep an updated translated version of the site. So you can check out the translated page here: MOTHER Stuff I&...Read More »

A little while back I came across a simple Mr. Saturn-themed game, the title of which translates to “Mr. Saturn Flies Through the Sky!” You can check it out here! The story is that Mr. Saturn has run out of things to sell in his shop, so he needs to collect a bunch of stuff to stock up on. But sometimes Giygas’ bad guys will come and try to get in the way. Basically, you have to...Read More »

I came across this in my huge pile of random EarthBound stuff. I don’t know what magazine it comes from or what issue it was from, I’m guessing it’s from 2002 though. Anyone got any ideas about this? click for full size I wonder if this guy visits this site or Starmen.Net. I also wonder if he ever gave in and eventually bought a GameCube anyway ...Read More »

Quinn sent this in a while back, it’s a remix of the “F-F-Fire!” song from MOTHER 3. I don’t really know the story behind this remix, did someone make this specifically for this video, or did a Brawl fan find a remix and stick it in a video? I’m guessing the former but I’d love to know for sure. If someone else did make this, it’d be awesome to have the o...Read More »

Omnomnominous sent this in, it’s from issue 69 of Nintendo Power. It briefly talks about how Nintendo handled the translation of MOTHER 2 into EarthBound: For some reason, people always assumed Dan Owsen did the translation for EarthBound. I don’t know why, from what I recall it was two Japanese women who translated it (and were listed in the credits), all Dan did was some editing wor...Read More »

Last year there was an odd contest by Vans and Jones Soda. Rather than try to explain it, I’ll just link to the post I made about it last May. Basically, one of the entries was based on EarthBound. It’s old news by now that the EarthBound entry won first place, as you can see on the official site. The fact it won by such a huge margin is really cool… but does anyone know what ha...Read More »
