MOTHER 2 Revival
« on: Dec 20 2012, 11:00 AM »
Itoi just posted some interesting things on Twitter today:

Quote
Since it’s now okay to blurt this out, here goes: the “MOTHER republication” thing I mentioned briefly before is making progress.

Quote
It’s not “(MOTHER) 4″, though! This has to do with making “MOTHER” playable. I can’t give out any details just yet, but I do at least need to say that it isn’t 4.

Perhaps the world IS going to end tomorrow. I'd have to wonder what this means. A compilation for the 3DS or WiiU? If so, it would give me even more reason to get one of those consoles.

(personally, i think the true sign of the times would be an announcement from NOA about this and/or MOTHER3 being localized, or earthbound on VC.)

Original article here: http://earthboundcentral.com/2012/12/itoi-announces-mother-developments/ -- They note that when Itoi says "MOTHER", he's usually referring to the series as a whole, not just EB0.

dreams are as portals, flat visions of misty places, fragments bound below my surface.
but i can write dreams, they flow from me, inscribed yet now unbound. i touch them, and they are real....and they are real.

Yeah, like I said. True sign of the times: NOA announcing localization of whatever Itoi's project may be. Hell would have frozen over.

let's not rule out worldwide, PAL territories got neither of the trilogy, the US was lucky to get EB to begin with

and lets not forget the upcoming SSB games for the 3DS and wiiU which with no doubt will have EB characters on the roster again and therefore fuel up the mother hypetrain

which already exists in the form of pokemon


and also an acknowledgement of the western fanbase

maybe we'll hear of it towards E3 or something

and with further research, it turns out monolith soft's unannounced wii U game isn't part of any established franchise, and that's most likely why the article was pulled

they're close enough to creatures inc to probably get the whole trilogy remade in a revised pokepark engine, but i'm fine with just retooled ROMs

...ok, maybe EBzero could at least use the metroid zero mission treatment, remake it using the graphical style and features of its successors, and have the original NES game as an unlockable...wishful thinking though, and there's like several fanprojects attempting this already...

...i still need to get a repro cartridge of EBzero, it'll look nice sticking out of my NES toploader aside the EB-loaded SNES

funny you mention that. new update on ebcentral: mother 2 on japanese virtual console march 20. japan only, but it is probably a good sign of things to come.

this is apparently the "republication" that itoi was referring to.

No idea. It is best to remain cautiously optimistic. The fact it is going to be on Japan's VC is a big step forward, though.

our only sliver of hope is the fact that mother2 was picked over mother1 as the first of the trilogy to get a rerelease

only mother2 ever made it overseas

depending whether the re-released mother2 ends up being modified or not, and if so, it indicates that NCL is now willing to allow NOA make changes to the game and rerelease it in modified form to give the franchise some exposure

apperently NoA intends to at least give EB its own miiverse community in america with reggie at the reins


silly NoA, why can't they be honest and outright tell the fanbase that it's not coming through official channels?
