Blogger Emily Rogers let the cat out of the bag the other day by hinting that Mother 3 will be arriving in the west. The rumour was also backed up by Liam Robertson who said that he had heard the same thing. Now, online gaming publication Eurogamer is also backing up this claim by stating that “Separately, Eurogamer has heard the same thing. I was told the release is finally happening – via Wii U Virtual Console – to celebrate Mother 3’s 10th anniversary of release in Japan.” Looks like it is pretty much happening folks!
Eurogamer Also Says “Mother 3 Will Finally Get Western Release”
Let’s hope it’s “separately” and not “we need those clicks, so we’re lying through out teeth”.
Nintendo needs to confirm this claim. Immediately.
It’s been 10 god damn years. let us finally finish this masterpiece of a trilogy.
If this is true, then what if that thing about Nintendo Developer Support reaching out to Toby Fox was actually to ask him to help write the script for the English version of Mother 3!? Now that would be cool!
So, what are we thinking they’re calling it? Mother 3? Earthbound 2? Earthbound 3? Earthbound: Subtitle That Denotes Conclusion?
Earthbound: An Earthbound Story, starring Earthbound
I like it.
I hope it’s true, just for the fans who have wanted it so badly. Heck, I might have to get it myself it it’s true. I’m not even a huge Earthbound fan, but the series does have a certain charm that has yet to be replicated.
However, I’m waiting for an official confirmation. Can’t be too careful these days haha. So much false info. Please be true!
There needs to at least be a direct for this, they can’t just announce something this big this randomly
Only Nintendo Announcing it, will make me believe that this is happening, plain and simple.
We have the first two here, so why not release the final one in the trilogy?
Yeah Eurogamer heard it from her….just like we all did. Hey I heard it from Emily to so it must be true. Yet here whole thing about Paper Mario U being announced and or revealed on Monday was fake as shit.
Fake? But they revealed that weekend that there IS a Paper Mario game in development for Wii U. That’s why nothing more was said the following monday.
It was proven true you dumbass.
I’d be a heck of a lot happier if it was a physical disc. But I won’t complain (too much). I feel fortunate to be able to play this game at all. But it will make me sick if a trilogy disc was released later, AFTER I already played through this game.
