If they did, it would be a good sign, and not a bad sign.


Do you mean that they could be making a new Mother if they did?


Precisely.

Not the same thing....



Gotta figure out how to set these up lol.

Fuck them if they do, and if they do, they deserve the irrelevancy they've been gathering over the years and even more. I would be so done with them.

I thought you already were, with the tone of your post.



Bet with Xander XT: 

I can beat more games on his 3DS than he can on my PSVita in a month. Loser has to buy the winner a game on his/her handheld Guess who won? http://gamrconnect.vgchartz.com/thread.php?id=193531

Me!

I don't think so. They did this with the fan-made Mario 64 only because they were planning to release Mario 64 in WiiU VC. Sadly, I don't think Nintendo is working on the Mother franchise. If the game don't interfere with their plans, I doubt they will bother with it.

So uh... why don't these guys just make an original game inspired by Mother instead?? I don't understand these fan games.



Except the difference is that I think they got permission from Itoi himself to make the "sequel".

They should try to bring fan made games like this to their consoles, not take them down.
Would be so cool, and even so they choose to destroy a work of love from their games...
Man it should really sucks to put yourself into this and get dumped down by the company they probably also love.

To be fair, I don't think Nintendo has actually done that with an actual fan game. Mario 64 HD was only taken down because the original game was announced for Wii U's VC days later. They haven't taken down a multitude of fan projects like Ocarina of Time 2D, Mario 64 Star Road, Project M, etc. Plus, Iwata said himself that their properties can be used by fans for derivative works.

I don't think Nintendo is going to do anything with the Mother franchise, so they'll probably let this slide by. The moment the creator starts making money off of this is when Nintendo comes in with a C&D.



Itoi said he didn't care if a fan game was made, even though I'm aware this is Nintendo's IP I'm sure they'll let it slip. Plus, they've been working on this for some time now. Nintendo can't be that heartless. If it's something like Mario, their bread n' butter...you really shouldn't broadcast that...just sayin'.
