Nintendo could crap gold bars, package them in a silver box, and ship them to your doorstep for free and the fanboys would say "but they aren't platinum bars are they?" Give it up, logic doesn't work. If they wish to live so narrow-mindedly THEY are the ones missing some of the most incredible games of the generation and possibly of all time. We aren't losing anything. By limiting yourself to one system, or completely discounting other systems, you are only hurting your own gaming experience.
Oh, and Mrstickball, Mother 3 (the sequel to Earthbound, also known as Mother 2) was released on the GBA in Japan last generation. It has not been localized, and there are no plans to do so yet. There is however a site called http://starmen.net/ currently translating the rom if you wish to bookmark the site and play it when it's completed.
