Yeah, you have to answer it. There's no curse on Mother. We literally have word from Satoru Iwata himself, President of the whole shebang at Nintendo, that we're getting Earthbound before the end of the year. What cause have you to doubt him aside from cynicism?

If hopes were crushed, it's because they were raised prematurely. People had no cause to get their hopes up, but did so anyway. Now that we have cause, you say we shouldn't get our hopes up. Shall we carry on only having hope when it is undeserved and being cynically skeptical in all other instances?

Oh, you're way too serious about this. No, definitely not underlined.

No, certainly not cynical that's not my attitude and I always discourage cynicism no matter what. But skeptical and careful of not raising hopes especially with a series that has a history of crushing them yes.

I know it's been hinted at, but I didn't see an official announcement, so it's the same argument.

Hinted at? No no no no no. This comes straight from the top. Skip to 22:10, or 22:50 if you're in a TL;DR mood.



I think happydolphin and the dengle misunderstand each other.

We know for a fact that Earthbound will be released in Europe and America before the end of the year, we don´t know if it will be digital only or a physical release (as indicated by Amazon uk, they were the ones to leak New Super Luigi U´s physical release)
happydolphin seems to talk about the possibility of Mother 4, which is rather slim (compared to a collector´s edition mother trilogy release)

Yeah, I think this is the confusion. Anyone hoping for a Mother 3 localisation or for a sequel to Mother may be hoping much. I can see Earthbound coming to the VC since it was available on the SNES in the West a long time ago. I'm not sure that is such a big announcement since most fans can find it with an official translation with the SNES Rom.



Full game is out as of this week.

Jim Sterling gave it 10/10. RPS said it "deserves to be remembered by PC players in much the same way that Earthbound is for console fans". It's the third highest rated game on Steam. If you liked Earthbound, or good soundtracks, or intensely thoughtful, intensely funny games, I highly recommend it. 

The way battles work is completely unique. You have the choice, if you want, to not fight any enemy and instead use talking and actions to progress. It's up to you. There's a very deep story here so it's hard to convey without spoiling.

It truly respects player choice. There's different dialogue paths for every choice you could make, and they each lead to a fully satisfying and emotional ending. I cried at the end.

For me - game of the decade. No question.

Try the demo!
