Well with the 2 pack being ignored stateside.. (Which Mother 1 is NOT holding it up, that game was funlly translated into english for release by Nintendo in the NES days but cancelled, so an english version exsists!).. I'm starting to wonder if we'll get to see Mother 3 (Earthbound 2) ever. :(

That sucks, I loved Earthbound. I just acquired another copy of it recently infact. It does suck rebuying all these old games I once had. I wont make that mistake again.

Man I feel your pain.. I've been on a kick trying to get back my SNES collection.. playing this stuff again is wonderful. I just got Pac-Man 2.. very innovative game, still very fun. Nothing, and I mean nothing will EVER beat the SNES RPG days. That is written law dagnabbit!!

I still have my SNES copy. A really cool and innovative RPG. Wonder if my scratch and sniff strategy guide still works.

Any new news on a possible US release for the Earthbound collection? It's been around a year since the Japanese release.

Chances are pretty slim. Mother 3 (GBA) is still in development and slated for release sometime next year, but that could a Japan-only release as well.

So will we be able to play this on the Revolution then?

Thanks for bumping a 2 year old thread for no apparent reason then to ask a question when we have numerous Revoltuon threads

I wonder if Mother 3 is still even coming out. The most recent news I could find is this article, dated 7-22-04, from RPGGamer:


Series writer Shigesato Itoi has revealed that Mother 3 is roughly 60 percent complete, and will be set for release in late 2005. This is the first word on the game since it was mentioned in a Japanese commercial for Mother 1+2.

There is no word thus far on a North American release for the game, which was originally known as Earthbound 64. RPGamer will bring you more information on this title as it becomes available.
I wouldn't mind if they went back and finished Earthbound 64 instead and released it for the DS.

These are the things you do when you're bored at 4 in the morning. :)

If it helps I was reading Gamespot's mail section and someone asked what are the chances of this coming out here, and he said 0%.

I've definitely seen worse at 4 am.... ;)

I, for one, was really looking forward to the nostalgia of Earthbound.... :(

Unfortunately the only new appearance Ness will be making is going to be in Super Smash Bros. Revolution it seems.

but it's 99.9999999% likely you'll be able to play Earthbound on Revolution (it is a nintendo published game afterall), so that's pretty cool I guess.

PixyJunket 09-28-05 07:28 AM

It's happening.

Brownie Brown.

Nintendo DS.

Outlaw 09-28-05 05:33 PM

whaaaat!?! Whats happening? Earthbound or Mother 3? -eek-

PixyJunket 09-28-05 05:47 PM

Shigesato Itoi:

I'm going to be holing myself up in Kichijoji to get tons done on "it".
"It" is progressing in secret.
I'm keeping silent, that's just how it is.
Everyone who's working on "it", let's make an announcement in the near future, ok?

Kichijoji is the name of the building that the studio "Brownie Brown" is in.

Outlaw 09-29-05 05:22 PM

all right!! Sounds interesting. can't wait until it's revealed

Joe Molotov 09-29-05 07:07 PM

I refuse to get my hopes up based on cryptic messages, when the game has already been officially announced twice for two different systems over the past 10 years and still hasn't come out. :lol:
