Title: The diamond dog ate my Yellow submarine! Post by: Blackcat on March 17, 2010, 06:43:52 pm This topic is about Earthbound, aka mother 2, the other mother games can also be talked here, still, mother is a stupid game for a videogame, dont you think? And sorry, but we dont read the newspaper and we dont need milk, thank you!

Shigesato Itoi also wanted the name to be something that wasn't game-like. Title: Re: The diamond dog ate my Yellow submarine!

Title: Re: The diamond dog ate my Yellow submarine! Post by: KageReneko on March 18, 2010, 04:09:57 pm Well, the 3 games have different Mother themes so I don't think the name is stupid...
In the original game (Mother for Famicom/NES) you have to save Mother Earth, you live in a town named Mother's Day, you have to defeat an evil alien using the lullaby that his surrogate Mother used to sing him when he was a baby... The other games just have the Mother name because they are the sequel but they still having some Mother themes... I don't remember them exactly anyway...

In the second game you have to visit eight santuaries to get the power of "mother earth", I dont know why, since you just beat the final boss praying. The boss is the same from the first game, this time you beat it for real. In the third game, two kids lose their mother... The third game is the one most full of low kicks, since a lot of good characters die. this time the plot goes about waking a dragon to gets its power... And yes, is a stupid name, cause if the game series havent becomed popular because of Internet and the smash bross games, would you buy a game called mother? Title: Re: The diamond dog ate my Yellow submarine! Post by: KageReneko on March 19, 2010, 08:14:45 pm Mother series was really popular in Japan a lot of years before the Internet and the Smash Bros series... That would be enough for catch my attention...
Just the commercial called for epicness... If you watch it you feel that you MUST to buy the game... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yQUN7QAnMp0 The name of a game isn't important, in fact the name is the least important aspect of a game since... Yell me what games have you bought just trusting in the name... Title: Re: The diamond dog ate my Yellow submarine!

Earthbound. -- Phil Ken Sebben Glad to hear you're a fan. ^_^ You know... They say that game stinks. Don't let that fool you... The scratch & sniff cards included with the game really do stink. Title: Re: The diamond dog ate my Yellow submarine! Post by: Methid Man on April 08, 2010, 01:06:02 am Yes, I really enjoy playing Earthbound. As of now, though, I have yet to finish the game. About the farthest I've ever gotten to was the pyramid. How far into the game is that?
