MOTHER 2 Preview on Laserdisc

I am very tempted. I don’t have a LD player, but always wanted to pick one up when I had the spare cash. Even though I already have this on VHS, I would not mind owning this version.

Just watching that, I can SMELL the 90’s and nostalgia.

I bought it; I have a couple of Laserdisc players in storage. I’ll try to get a decent rip of it some time.

And I promise that ripping the Mother 2 promo video (http://earthboundcentral.com/2011/11/mother-2-promo-vhs-tape-for-sale/) from last year is still on my to-do list!

Yay Carl! 😀

Is that a unused song when Scarraba pops up?

Jesus, does Itoi ever give details about his work?

Wow!!!! that’s awesome. Can someone tell me when this interview was taken? Im asking because some parts or the game looks different. is that because it’s mother 2 or it’s it from early in the games development?

I would buy this, I have the cash. But no Laser Disc player.

@Mac –Somewhere between ’92-’93, obviously, unless it wasn’t created for the disc and just ended up on there; I’d guess the end of 1992, though. It’s likely near the end of the year, previewing games scheduled for next year’s release. I’m not sure if it was created for the disc alone or not, but if it wasn’t, it could be as early as ’91, even. The back of the box might supply more information, but I doubt it knowing our luck… But the game went through major revisions in the final year or two from what I can tell, so it seems likely to be 1992 or ’91.

It came out in December of 1992. ^^ You can find the info on Wikipedia here: http://ja.wikipedia.org/wiki/GTV_(%E3%83%93%E3%83%87%E3%82%AA%E3%83%9E%E3%82%AC%E3%82%B8%E3%83%B3)#GTV.E3.83.97.E3.83.AD.E3.83.95.E3.82.A7.E3.83.83.E3.82.B7.E3.83.A7.E3.83.8A.E3.83.AB (obvious warning: it’s in Japanese)

The wikipedia info citing that this disk was made in 12/1992 (Japanese).

I’ll hold you to that, Carl. Thanks for snatching it up before a rouge buyer bought it. Please let us now when you receive the disc. =)

Man, that interviewer was mean.

“Is there buried gold”

Totally snide remark because Itoi failed to find the gold >_>
