that'd be awesome. i never had a chance to play mother

[Samus Aran]

It says "Mother," not "Earthbound." And he often means the whole series when he says that. So I'm guessing that's the case. I can't imagine that it's something that only involves Mother 2.

I dunno though. Personally I'd hope for a new compilation with finally localized Mother 1 and 3.

[PLEASEHELP1991]

i'm very doubtful that it'd be released stateside

agreed lol

[Samus Aran]

also it's probably just a Mother VC re-release for 3DS

no matter what it is it's not coming to america

[AAAAAAAA]

this is cool if we ever see it

idk i think it's definitely possible. the mother 3 fan translation was a pretty big deal that i'm sure nintendo took note of. also they keep putting earthbound characters in smash bros so i feel like it'd be silly not to get the series stateside when they're rebooting other franchises like kid icarus and stuff.

but there's also a big chance that it won't happen because fuck nintendo

noa isn't responsible for any game development and they only bring over games that appeal to the casual market

they've had years to bring over mother 3 and made zero attempts to do so. they won't bother ever

[AAAAAAAA]

A big part of not bringing Mother 3 over was the timing. The GBA was on its last legs, and the DS had been out for a while. There just hasn't been a good opportunity since its release to re-release it here, and at the time, Nintendo wasn't going to make a download or something available for US only, especially when it would require so much translation.

Had Mother 3 been released two years earlier... Well we'd probably still not have it.

yeah, but it's not like nintendo is going to use that fan translation

[AAAAAAAA]

This.

Tomato hasn't been contacted by Nintendo at any point to use his translation, and while his is excellent and I'd love to see it used officially, I can't see it happening.

yeah i was about to say that lol
