Finally, another new demo booth photo of EarthBound 64 at Spaceworld '99 has surfaced! archive.org/details/fami...

During an interview at E3 1997, Benimaru Itoh stated EarthBound 64 was once planned support multiplayer. However, it was scrapped early on due to technical complications. There is nothing viewable of this multiplayer build of the game online. web.archive.org/web/19971011...

It's wild to me that Benimaru Itoh and Toshinao Aoki didn't even get a special thanks credit in the final cut of Mother 3. Even if you despise how the N64 version looked, they still arguably laid vital groundwork for what the character and enemy designs would evolve into.

These aren't new to the internet or anything but I just dug out these Mother 3 screenshots from 1997, I heard Bluesky likes Mother 3

I've uploaded something new, check out the story of how the EB64 community helped to preserve lots of EarthBound 64's concept art! youtu.be/EfBawpDCWvg

Please enjoy this nearly three seconds of footage from the original Mother 3, newly captured off of a tape we're working with

Various pieces of EarthBound 64 related artwork drawn by Benimaru Itoh, the game's lead art designer, during E3 1997.

I began playing Paper Mario Master Quest Jr. the other day, it's tough as one would imagine, but it's certainly exactly what I wanted out of a purposely more-difficult replay of the game. The base game is a bit too easy after having played through it more than once…

New video!!! Watch if you're interested in Mother 3, or just translations in general. youtu.be/LyKbGGAw3qk

If i had a nickel for everytime they took something that has nothing to do with sonic, they made a sonic version of said thing, and then said sonic version completely obscures the existence and validity of the original thing outside of Japan, id have at least two nickels

Shoutouts to the Mercari seller who included this drawing with these buttons I bought.

Back sometime around 2012, Nintendo World NY had on display, among lots of merchandise for other Nintendo franchises, some MOTHER series items, including some fan merch. Allegedly, this was from an employee's personal collection, that the other staff allowed for them to temporarily put on display.

I've been playing Super Smash Bros. Brawl a lot lately. I know this isn't a ground breaking revelation, but the single-player content it has makes me more inclined to play it these days over something like Smash Ultimate. I'm getting pretty close to beating every challenge the game has.

They swapped around Lucas and Flint's names. Boy, I really hope somebody got fired for that blunder.

Another new video from me: It's about who I think is Mother 3's most underrated character. Enjoy it! Watch it here: youtu.be/rXanHFZxZ8g #MOTHER3

Something interesting I didn't touch upon in my new video: The Claymen design that we can see for the 2002 GBA version of Mother 3 is pretty close to the N64 version's design and not like the final GBA one at all (the only 2002 design with this distinction). At least, I think it's interesting…

happy 24th birthday to one of my all time favourite albums: humanistic by abandoned pools!

I'm back! And I finally have a new video that I've posted. It's a new analysis on Flint from Mother 3! Shares appreciated :) youtu.be/Jpo92A-ksz4 #MOTHER3

I really hope DYKG remakes this video someday. It's filled with lots of false information and since so much about Mother 3's history has been uncovered and better documented in the time since this was made, I think a new video on it would be a huge improvement.

Here's a behind the scenes thing I'd like to highlight from my video I uploaded yesterday: the N64 Leder featured during a mockup screenshot was collaboratively made between Sam the Salmon & Picto. There was only one image of Leder shared during the EB64 days so this recreation is rather impressive!

Mentioning this here for the sake of brevity: I did sorta forget to talk about the unused elevator dialogue during the "Flint's prototype role" segment of the video, but since it's something that I've talked about it multiple other videos of mine, I don't think it was needed to be mentioned again.

MOTHER 3: Fall of the Pig King for the Nintendo 64 was cancelled 25 years ago today. As a goodbye to the project, a huge discussion between Shigesato Itoi, Shigeru Miyamoto, & Satoru Iwata was released, as well as 24 screenshots from the game and 2 music tracks. #Mother3

there are already multiple conversions of this specific entry available on Switch alone; this is more noteworthy for the fact that Sega's straight up letting D4E drop Puyo Puyo and not just Madou Monogatari oh and it has this hidden ending with drunk Arle

EGG CONSOLE WATCH: Puyo Puyo (PC98), out August 28 store-jp.nintendo.com/item/softwar... 🇯🇵 specifically, it's a conversion of the first arcade game that isn't super accurate (no unique CPU routines, for one) but has some unique perks like character sprites/portraits redrawn for "high-res" (640x400)

Another example of Picross 3D reusing EarthBound 64 concept art can be seen with this map background that has the concept art of the tree cafe placed as a landmark. It is also worth noting that the map has other landmarks that may also be recycled (and undocumented) concept art.

this person on Tumblr had a good reading of me

Carbuncle… thank you.

we attended anime boston on saturday and even got to meet some of our friends!

We built a museum! At GDC last month we exhibited a gallery of unreleased games for the original NES, featuring original prototypes, marketing materials, and development artifacts.

Hobonichi has put out a Mother 3 survey for its 19th anniversary. This is open until April 30th: docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1F...

I have an idea for a video but it will require input from YOU! I'd like to discuss some hot takes regarding the MOTHER Series, so if you have a take you feel like is worth discussing, leave a reply to this post and I may just cover it.
