Isn't Mother 3 the exact same as Earthbound 64? I was under the impression that at least on the story aspect the games would have been the same. Wouldn't the only difference be the 3D animations? |
Yes and no, story wise, we don't know because Earthbound/Mother 64 never got finished. We do know that several designs did make it into Mother 3 but Earthbound 64 was promoted as to having a sort of live world with day/night cycle similar to what we'd eventually see in Shen Mue. It has been a while but I also think the family was supposed to travel with one another instead of the seperate vintages Mother 3 wound up having so... who knows what it could have turned out to, had the N64 not been declared a failure in Japan and the 64DD more smoke then fire.
