Note: Keep in mind that the "Spoiler Free" section still contains gameplay spoilers, just nothing about the story. Worth noting in case you don't want to see things from later chapters. Correction: I mistakenly stated that a certain spoiler-y boss was planned to be in the game. This is not true. It's a fan theory as far as I'm aware.

Thanks for watching! :)

I watched all three videos covering the Mother series back to back, and the quality get so good over these games. Really brings one emotions to see how far this series has come. Those three videos are amazing.

Thank you! Glad you enjoyed them :)

Earthbound creeps you out. Mother 3 saddens you.

I would like to point out that Claus is not unconscious on that cliff. He is a corpse. It is implied via the fact that claus is the only enemy without a heartbeat the pig mask army revived him replacing all non-functioning organs and limbs with machines including his heart. He is a reanimated corpse.

Was tempted to use this in the video haha

I'm not going to watch very much of this one yet as I really do want to experience this game for myself, but congrats on finishing this absolutely massive retrospective series! I can tell just from the length of the video how much time and love you poured into this one. It can be exhausting to cover the topics we really care about, so I really appreciate when amazing videos like this are made. And you can bet I'll come running back to this video once I beat the game! Fantastic job with this series man!

to be honest i think part of me doesnt even want it to be localized, as the fan translation is immaculate, i just want this game to get the praise it deserves. i still gotta play Mother 1, as ive only played it for a couple of hours as it was the first one i tried before moving onto earthbound. i would absolutely kill for a claymation remake like the welcome to the world of mother 3 video, though

This video deserves WAYYYYY more views. This is such a high quality video

I've always enjoyed how Mother 3 is still a sequel to EarthBound, but it does distance itself enough from the rest of the series where it can be played on its own, and I think you'd have just as good of an experience, barring some stuff like that room with all the presents and the giant hot spring, and the boat ride room with all the earthbound memorabilia. And generally with how opened ended some aspect about the game are, there are some things you can leave up to your imagination. Like Porky mentioning how he's traveled through space and time so much, this very well could be a different world altogether, where the only connecting factor between it and EarthBound's is Porky. Great video, always happy to see someone talk about my favorite game.

Totally agree. I cry every time I finish mother 3. And it’s the best kind of sadness, that bittersweet sadness that makes you feel pain and love at the same time. This game is a masterpiece

You are literally one of the most underrated channel I've ever seen, nearly watched all of your videos. kudos man.

Great timing. I just finished watching your videos on the first 2 games.

Mother 3 means a lot to me. I first played this during quarantine back in 2020. Life completely changed for me and I was all alone (despite being locked up with my family). During this time, my mind started spiraling but this game helped me get through it all. At this point I’ve played it almost 10 times. Let’s hope this game eventually gets an English localization.

It is astounding to me this channel only has 4k subs. Sensational video, really well done

I know I’m late, but to clarify, when the 64DD was first announced, the N64 cartridges were either 8 or 16MB; that’s why the 64MB drive, that was cheaper than the 8MB cartridge, was a great deal. By the time the 64DD was delayed and games transferred to the regular N64, it began having 32MB cartridges in 1998, and by 2000 ended up with the 64 MB option, that I understand few games took advantage of (because how expensive it was)

Thank you for the upload!

Finally watched this video after it was in my watch later for a month and I have gotta say it’s pretty good. One extremely small nitpick though is when you said Giygas was planned to be in MOTHER 3, which is untrue. It annoys me when people say that for some reason. Dunno why.

@@mooks500 in super paper mario the dark prognosticus says that luigi is the only being capable of using the power of the pure hearts, and the final boss is luigi in a huge monster form being controlled by the main villain, dimentio, to use the pure hearts to destroy the universe and then remake it how dimentio wants it to be.

Incredible video and series! I don't know how but we have like the exact same taste in games, Xenoblade 3, 1, and Mother 3 are in my top 5 favorite games as well

I'm not sure the image of "Giygas" was meant to be him as a character, rather it was going to be the emotions one experienced during the last fight. However, that combined with the creepy cut music may have been too much of an emotional whiplash to include in the finished product. That being said, I do wonder just how much darker that fight and other parts of the game were going to be as Itoi had mentioned...

This take me back, back when I was finicky with seeing my characters in battle but gave EB and chance and love it about a year or so prior to the announcement of the Mother 3 translation patch. Downloaded and beat the game on a school computer and personal computer with a keyboard within a few months of its release. I think I've beaten it 2-3 more times since then and always finding new things, honestly surprised I overlook Leder telling about the memories sealing/erasing of the people that existed in EB prior to M3. That and how Hinawa was behind the haystack that saved Lucas after his jump in Chapter 6. Finally, gonna butcher them a little but the lines that have stuck with me the most where: Hinawa: Claus you must be so tired, come to your mother. Claus: Sorry brother, I'm now going to where mom is. Flint: Your brother was being hasty, you will forgive him, right Lucas.

Such a great game

I will watch this video later. I must play that game for myself. Btw check out twewy series. They were my first jrpgs (after Mario and Luigi ofc). Neo twewy is my favourite jrpg for this moment. I adore gameplay of this game.

These games are such hidden gems. I wish nintendo would remake these games for the switch, link's awakening style

GBA is now on Nintendo Switch.......REGGIE, CAN WE GET MOTHER 3 NOW

Another banger

it would seriously be criminal if nintendo didn't give the west mother 3 on NSO now that they added GBA titles to the service. this is genuinely the perfect time to finally make it happen!

12:41 Mother 3 is the superior game, to me. I won’t hate on anyone who prefers Earthbound, but M3 is where it’s at.

C'mon man, the algorithm sucks ass, like what the hell, this at the bare minimum requires half a million views, and deserves much more. It honestly saddens me so much that truly passionate people who work hard don't get exposure when in contrast to dicks who don't do shit.

I was inspired to write a song about Mother 3

I bought Mother 3 back in 2008 when it was on clearance from a Japan site for $20, played the game through completion several times, including both Japanese and English. I never realized that the last Magypsy was Fassad. That's so bizarre. Glad I know now. I always hated Fassad even more than Porky.

MOTHER 3 CONTENT!!!!!

MOTHER 3 Was The Best.

this game completely destroyed me, glad I got to experience it, one of my all time favorites!

defending halves the damage you take and your hp rolls down slower

2:02 like thats ever gonna happen

The GBA was FAR more then a more powerful SNES. The CPU ran at 18.6Mhz vs the PS1 at 33Mhz. The GBA can even do polygonal 3D graphics despite having NO dedicated hardware to do so. Someone has gotten the PS1 version of the original Tomb Raider running on GBA hardware at playable framerates (only maxed at around 20fps).

I'm glad Mother 3 ended up as a GBA game rather than a 64 game. I love the 64, but the 2D art style is much much better for standing the test of time than any graphics on the 64. I do wish there has been another mother game entirely... anywhere lol the 64 definitely could have used more RPGs.

mother 3 is coming on nintendo switch gba online

I wish I liked Xenoblade Chronicles even half as much as Mother 3.... I never could get myself to stick to the second game to finish it.

Masterpiece of a Game that Nintendo still Denies us a proper localized version outside of JP. Yes I KNOW the fan translation exists and that’s great but STILL…

the fan translation is great but i get what you mean. just the acknowledgement that it exists and officially giving people a way to play it on an official platform is what the game truly deserves, even if people can go out of their way to play it now

Have you played omori? You would love it

Nowhere Islands? You should've named your dog Courage.

I got masked man's identity spoiled like halfway through the game which sucked but I'm over it

55:48 I mean, I'm pretty sure Porky was a CHILD-child back in Mother 2. :P

Why did the captions say "Thank you" at 01:06:34?

24:15 Happy boxes aren't TVs, they are what they look like: pink boxes that produce mesmerising light.

That you think any Xenoblade game is of quality, is unfortunate. This is coming from someone who only ever played Xenosaga of the Xeno series until 2018 when I bought into the hype of Xenoblade Chronicles 2, and what a mistake that was. Talk about gear grindingly, annoyingly repetitive. And that was just the game play, the less said about the childish characters and weak story the better. Played that on deployment and promptly threw that switch cartridge into the burn pit after finishing it.

FF7 Remake though? Idk bro 🤷‍♂
