@joe: Same for me, only with De Blob, Sam and Max, and ToS2. I haven't even finished the drum career on GHWT.

Why are so many people, anxious for Earthbound? It's as mediocre and generic as an RPGcan be. It seems the only reason pople even care is because it has characters in smash Bros. Seriously, for those who want it for this reason, you're not missing much.

@Mr.Waffleton: you should really play the game sometime, it was actually quite fun and innovative.

@Eggman006: Because it's been proven time and time again that Mother 3 would do well over here in America, but NOA doesn't seem to care. Now that the GBA is kinda dead, it's pretty much too late for an official translation. :\

@DoctorCello: Aye Mother 3 would do extremely well in the States, just as Earthbound did when it was release or The World Ends With You has recently.

@Kenofthedead: Uh, Earthbound had lukewarm sales at best when it was released. It only gained its following long after the game was released. I'm one of the few who bought the game when it was still in stores.

After having played through Mother 3 using the recently released English patch, I can say that Mother 3 is definitely a game that would be much more difficult for US consumers to absorb than Earthbound. It's much more geared towards Japanese gamers than Earthbound, which, in my opinion, really was created for any audience. Earthbound was filled with plenty of references to US culture while Mother 3 is more unique in that regard.

@DrZaius: I was using sarcasm. To help show that I don't believe Mother 3 would do all that well, just like Earthbound and The World Ends With You.
