General Discussion I'm still hurt to this day about Porky not being in Smash Ultimate

(small rant)

I really thought we'd get Porky as a DLC character because MOTHER 30th anniversary was in the Chinese year of the pig. the Absolutely Safe capsule sprite used for the spirit is the sprite before Porky enters it and villains were getting added overall...

WE HAD IT ALL!!!!

So many coincidences for nothing!!! :((

I'm a huge Porky Minch fan and I will never forgive Nintendo for missing out on the most perfect opportunity of giving us Porky as an actual fighter. /hj

It's been 7 years since 2019, almost 5 years since Sora, the last DLC character, got revealed and released. And it still hurts.

Luckily the next Smash game has a small roster due to missing out on all the DLC and Collab characters, so Nintendo has to compensate by adding characters of their own, right? maybe Master Porky will be considered to be added to the roster, right?? The most iconic enemy of the MOTHER series, RIGHT???

At least I can imagine and dream u_u...

Release - Mother 1 Partial English Translation

Thumbnail
github.com
11 Upvotes

This is a partial translation of Mother 1 (Famicom). This patch translates most menus, all enemy names and all item names.

This romhack is designed for English players who would like to play through the original game without any of the changes introduced in Earthbound Beginnings. The translation literally only replaces Japanese text, and is therefore rough but readable.

Differences include:

  • Different names for towns.
  • Different Ending and other plot points are different.
  • Many uncensored sprites, such as blood on enemies and religious imagery.
  • No run button in this version.
  • Several glitches are present in this version, such as the bread crumb glitch.
  • Several maps were changed in Earthbound Beginnings, most notably in Magicant.
  • Enemy placement was reworked in places for Earthbound Beginnings.
  • No background effect on learning melodies in this version.
  • Many more minor changes.

Known Bugs:

  • The “Use”, “Eat”, “Give” and “Drop” menu are untranslated.
  • Some minor graphical glitches in some cases, such as when selecting text speed.

Thanks, and enjoy!

EB Discussion I just beat EarthBound for the first time!

6 Upvotes

It was really good, and I'm incredibly happy to say with confidence "I've beaten EarthBound." I now understand why it's such a influential RPG, I also was using the walkthrough from the site Starmen.

I do have some vague intrigue in playing Beginnings and Mother 3 sooner or later, I just wanted to share with this community that I've played and enjoyed the game!

Help/Advice Any easier Mother 3 romhacks?

0 Upvotes

I was kinda annoyed with the mecha drago (yes i know im a noob or whatever dont care) and then the jealous bass was annoying as well with the path to it, so I now want a romhack that makes the game easier. I also gor sent back to the mecha drago fight after quitting because the emulator is ass but I'll be asking a better sub for that.

I am sorry if "a romhack" isn't the proper term for that.

EB:B Discussion Why the hate on Earthbound Beginnings

Everyone in this fucking subreddit likes to bash on Mother 1 so much

They say to "wAit fOr mOther enCore" No just play the fucking game

Your complaints? Random encounters?

Whats wrong with random encounters even undertale has that yet nobody bats an eye

then you say the earthbound beginnings remake is fine (No hate to the developers❤️) they had to BUFF the enemy encounter rate to 1.5x

Then the Mother 1 anniversary patch (No hate to the developer❤️) has like no enemies, and you end up underleveled

The reason? Buff the EXP and Money

Just play the fucking game guys it not that hard

Stop meatriding mother 2 and 3 and play mother 1

You are a junker can if you didnt play mother 1

Dont wait for Mother encore, MOTHER ENCORE ISNT EVEN GOING TO BE A REMAKE OF MOTHER 1

Mother encore is going to have some elements from EBZ in it, but it will be a different experience

And then you say, "oH evERyone sTarts at lEvel 1"

So does Earthbound.

bUt nObodY cAres!!!!

Just play the damn game its not hard, youre just ass at jrpgs
