The thread for any discussion about Mother 3, and the English translation patch that just came out. Thread may contain some, if not major, spoilers. Be careful of what you click!


And with that, I say, enjoy the game! I know I am.

Yeah! I just downloaded the patch and am playing through chapter 1 now. So far im having fun, but the game gets really laggy during some parts and it can make things difficult to play, but i think thats just because of my emulator...

If I had my comp, I would so play the english one. I've played the actual game (imported) on my GBA SP and it was fantastic. Why Nintendo of America never translated this gem is beyond me.

But anyway, GO MOTHER 3!
Lo, primitive earthlings. I am coming for your planet.

Until then, fatten yourself

Hmm, our avatar is the same...
Anyways, this will be my 3rd time through.
Spoiler:
I just pulled my 1st needle, and I'm heading towards that mountain, but first I wanna find the last mouse and get the shield stealer.
I'm on my third run, too. (Weird, huh?)

Also, wow. I'm still only in Chapter 2. And I REALLY hate Chapter 3.

Spoiler:
I also hate the boss at Mixolydia's needle. Then again, I'm always underleveled.

It was never translated and braught over to America, because EarthBound had bad sales, even though it's NoA's fault got that.
True, it is their fault. Reggie Fils-Aime is also very passive-aggressive about fans asking for the 3rd installment in North America. Some speculate that's why EarthBound never got to the VC but why not sell it again? Back then, in the early-mid 90's, RPGs were never thought of. It would do really great if they released all 3 games, considering that now we have a whole bunch of RPGs.

Just started Chapter 3. Usually just speed-run it, considering...

Spoiler:
Yokuba (Or Fassad, as the translation calls him.) does most of the work, then when you fight the tank, you have Kumatora to back you up. (And look awesome doing it.) Then in Chapter 7, you have Lucas.


Also:

Spoiler:
Hopefully, grinding there will give you enough exp for the Masked Man fight. PK Love γ is ridiculous.

I got the patch two minutes after it came out. I don't know why I never bothered posting here. o_o;

I'm currently on chapter 3 because I'm taking my time. Just out of curiosity, how are you people playing the game? Emulator or...?

I'm playing through the game, talking to every person, checking anything that looks like it can be checked, getting my butt kicked by the Chapter 4 boss.

And if I level up enough later:

Spoiler:
Re-attempt fighting the King Porky Statue without using PK Flash or the New Year's Eve Bomb. Using debug room to become Lv. 99 of course. Just need to get Lv. 60 Kumatora first for PK Ground.

By the way, did anyone else find learning PK Flash hilarious?

I've been following this fanlation since around the time it began and I'm just so excited that it's finally released! Did anyone else sign up to be emailed upon it's completion? xD

Right now... I'm sadly still at the beginning. I downloaded the patch, applied it, and put it on my flash cart, however, I haven't actually got around to doing much more than that.
(Need to find time to play it. :o)

Sounds like everyone is certainly enjoying it, though!

Careful, it has 100,000,000 HP, there's like a 9 minute Youtube video of someone trying to do that before exhausting their supplies/HP/PP.

As for my names

Everything was default but Food was Nut Bread (Inside Joke), and Favorite thing was Puffin.

Spoiler:
I beat the game a couple days ago, such a sad ending.

I can't get any cheat codes to work, sadly, and I wanted to do a themed playthough.

That 9-minute video was mine, actually.

I used default names except for food, which was Sushi, and favorite thing which is Gaming.

Spoiler:
Now in Chapter 5, just beat Li'l Ms. Marshmallow. On my way to fight Mr. Genetor. For once, I'm not underleveled in an RPG. Hopefully, Barrier Trio and Masked Man won't be too hard.


Also, a Mother 1+2 translation was said to have been worked on in the shadows, no promises. And a Mother 3 hacking tool might be released. So we can enjoy Mother 3, then try to hack it. It's 1000x harder than hacking Earthbound though.

I needed that yo-yo, or else Boney would end up being stronger than Kumatora. On my last playthrough, it actually was the best weapon for her until Chapter 8, where the toy model of Paula's frting pans upstaged it. Then it was Duster's best weapon.
