      Can't you guys just emulate the fan translation ROM?
      Pardon me if I sound really stupid here, but you guys are like wallowing in sorrow while neglecting the translation that's been sitting there for about a decade already.
      Just give it a try and stop crying about it so much.

      It would confirm that MOTHER 3 is set in the same universe as EarthBound and takes place in the far future. The final game is ambiguous in regards to its time period, as Porky doesn't come from the past or future definitively and has irreparably damaged his body due to excessive time travel.

    Great and fun video. I'm surprised it actually cleared up some misinformation for me since like the "won't be released due to controversy" rumor. That's what sucks about rumors. Some just get picked up into the public consciousness and become accepted as fact, even when it's so easy to disprove. (like Kimba the white lion was the original Lion King). Also I loved the original assets made for this video.
    But yeah, the most important takeaway from this video is that the Hulk Funko Pop is Bigger than the rest.

    (sees the professor from Contact on the thumbnail) This gonna be good.
    Of course, to be fair, Contact's a good experimental DS game from some of the developers of Moon: Remix RPG Adventure (yes, THAT Moon RPG which Toby Fox loves so much), but it suffers from the old "It looks like an action-RPG, but I'm not allowed to button-mash to attack like a sane person" problem. Then again, it also suffers from the FF2 level-up system being applied in an action-RPG, and the stomach meter. Yes, I have a copy.
    Also, all that, and nobody mistook any Ni no Kuni games that suspiciously resembled the Mother games AS Mother games?

    Hello, obsecure Smash lore expert here, Lucas main and MOTHER3 fan, Lucas was ALSO supposed to replace Ness in brawl. according to Sakurai, when he was deciding the roster in 2005, he learned of the decision of to not localize it, and so decided to keep Ness in for everyone else. In an alternate timeline where MOTHER3 was released in the west, Ness might've not made in into Brawl.

  • @flippant_foe
    @flippant_foe Год назад +3

    (19:08) This isn't an rumor its a semi pretty well known fact. Similar to how Lucas was originally planned to replace Ness in the roster for Smash Melee in order to promote MOTHER 3's N64 version, during Brawl's development Masahiro Sakurai legitimately thought MOTHER 3 would be localized for the western audience by the time Brawl would come, so he decided to cut Ness from Brawl's roster for Lucas as well. This is one of the main reasons why Lucas has such an similar moveset to Ness in Brawl (and by extent later smash games), because he was meant to replace and why waste a good moveset.
    Later in Brawl's development Sakurai learned that MOTHER 3 wouldn't be getting an localization any time soon, so to not alienate western MOTHER fans with a character from a game they can't even officially play over a game they he added back Ness along with Lucas. Essentially if MOTHER 3 N64 was never cancelled and MOTHER 3 GBA had a localization back when it first released in Japan, then its a huge bet that we wouldn't see Ness back in Smash Bros until Smash Ultimate with it's everyone is here gimmick

    • @MonkeyNess

      Any source on the first part? I'm aware of the latter, that he thought M3 would be localized and that's why he included Lucas, but about him replacing Ness? It's known this was the case for Melee, but I've seen no such confirmation this was the case for Brawl.

      @@MonkeyNess the story has the doc being chased by someone until they meet your character. Your character joins them in their ufo house, and the doc talks to you, real you, as in playing the game you.

      It's the kind of game I expect from Suda51, the same guy who helped make no more heroes (my favorite of his) and a game called lollipop chainsaw.
      Yes it's as silly as it sounds
      It also turns out that it had drastically low sales in Japan because everyone was awaiting a new hit game: Mother 3

      @@AnAverageGoblin people involved with it? You mean the creators in Japan? They wouldn't know anything about Nintendo of America translating it in secret. It was teased the first time because they actually had plans to release at that time and changed their mind. The reason why they wouldn't have teased it yet if they actually translated it is because they have no plans on releasing it yet if at all.
