The similarities between Pokémon and MOTHER never cease to amaze me.

Do you think some of it is intentional?

Why does everything get compared to Earthbound? I don't know jack shit about it but I see crossovers with every franchise pretty much.

You must be lucky because I've seen very little crossover fanart and most of it is just a reference to SSB Brawl.

They're both turn-based RPGs set in a semi-realistic, modernish world, with a child protagonist. What other similarities are there?

Gens I toIII already look a lot like a MOTHER game, why would you want that?

Or are you talking about the writing?

And you've never gotten curious about it?

Never thought of trying the game?

N's farewell theme and the Mother 3 love song too. Also, a young boy goes off and explores the world is the plot premise for both of them.

It's a huge cult classic. Sadly, I've never really seen much crossover art.

Both N's Farewell and the BW Surf Theme were based on music from Mother 3.

Actually, Black and White has a bunch of similarities to Mother 3: the legend of two brothers and a dragon, the enviorment vs technology theme and maybe the some of the monsters, remember that Hydreigon was gonna be a cyborg just like Genesect.

Honestly, no. Nothing I do know about it has enticed me even though I know it's big on a cult level. Even if it were easily available, I don't think I'd bother.

The incredulous reactions here are weird, is it not popular? I've seen it crop up enough to assume it was pleb-indie tier.

You're either lying, which is very likely given the X/Y and Summerfags still around everywhere, or you're from some shithole of a country, or werevery poor as a kid. Earthbound/Mother 2 was a fucking SNES game.

It's a somewhat obscure snes game and, although it's gotten more popular lately, fanart is not rampant.

Hey, I'm from Mexico and I played the game.

Maybe he's just the kind of person who doesn't dig stories like EarthBound. Though now I wonder what he's doing in the Pokémon board.

Pleb as in the whole internet knows it but indie as in only the internet knows it.

>>19495288
What am I lying about? That I never had Earthbound/Mother 2? Looking it up, seems it only reached Europe in '13. I don't even think we had a SNES, or if anyone I know did.

>>19495406
How recent is this popularity? He's been in Smash Bros and Smash Bros is big, surely people would seek out the source.

Smash did increase it but I think most of the new fans came when the fan translation of Mother 3 was finished and that was in 2008.

Since we are on the subject of MOTHER is anyone excited for the MOTHER 4 fangame? I hear they have permission from the creator and they have a pro musician helping them as a guest for the soundtrack,

It's just not the same without Shigesato Itoi but the teaser seems to indicate they managed to balance between MOTHER 2 and 3, which is good.

My biggest fear was them aiming to be an edgier MOTHER 3.

A subsidiary of Nintendo created by Shigesato Itoi to develop MOTHER. Left them after EarthBound 64 so MOTHER 3 could have a "fresh start".
