On April 20, 2006, MOTHER 3 was released in Japan. It’s hard to believe it’s already been four years since then, or that the English translation patch has been out for a year and a half now I already sort of covered memory lane stuff the past few years, on here and on the M3 translation blog, so I won’t rehash all that. Instead, I’ll point out these two old forum threads ...Read More »

In the history of the MOTHER series, there’ve been several released games and a few cancelled projects. But out of those, only one game made it out of Japan: EarthBound. By now we all know the story and history of the series (if you don’t, see here), so I won’t go into that. But we can still play the “what if” game So today’s poll question is this: What if Ear...Read More »

The MOTHER / EarthBound series has a fondness for mushrooms, for whatever reason. If a character eats a mushroom or has mushroom-related stuff happen, something bad is about to happen. And if you run into a sentient mushroom, you better look out. So, the question today is, if you absolutely had no choice, which mushroom boss would you eat? Shrooom! from EarthBound or Zombieshroom from MOTHER 3? If...Read More »

EarthBound is pretty cool in that you can play the entire game with one hand if you want to, I think most people know that by now. But lesser known is the fact that if you have a controller plugged into the second controller port, BOTH controllers will play the game. I bet it’s good for bringing couples together or for making siblings hate each other more. I don’t know if controllers p...Read More »

Video game fans are sometimes crazy, and when they have children, sometimes they name their babies crazy things.

(I’ll do a baby girl poll later on) Click here to vote! ...Read More »

Man, last week’s poll was so neck-and-neck. I thought for sure that one or the other would overwhelmingly win. Anyway, let’s change things a little bit and talk about the games themselves rather than stuff in the games. The question this time is: Which is most likely to happen? MOTHER/EarthBound ports for new consoles, official remakes, or sequels? Click here to vote! ...Read More »
