If they advertised it like this and if the game had cost $60 like every other SNES game, it probably would have sold better, but it still wouldn't have been as big then as it is today--the graphics and its late release also hurt sales too :(
Still wouldn’t have done well as it was super expensive and mother 1 didn’t release in America and this game never came to Europe until this release on wii u
I consider myself lucky to actually now know the story behind Ness's character. I found out about him like many from the Super Smash Bros. series but never really gave him a chance to see what his story is. Then I decided to play the game, and now it's one of my favorite games of all time!
same here didnt play earthbound till like 2006 on my cousins win xp pc with snes emulator i had seen him in smash bros 64 back in like 2001 but never minded much attention to backstories xd i remember he was the hardest character to get story mode 3 lives medium no continues its up there with the best amen buddy amen
Ness and Lucas always seemed mysterious to me since Brawl like on 2012 specially because Subspace Emissary but later when i was 14 on 2019 i finally found out their true story and it was an amazing experience
@@psychic_digit I've been waiting for it to come to Switch to play it for the first time so I could be wrong, but isn't Ness an otherwise silent protagonist? Are there any other quotes he can even be known for?
@@jacobg8640 I know he talks at least twice in the entire game, in Magicant. I'm assuming you haven't played the game yet, so I won't spoil it for you. But otherwise, he is a silent protagonist.
@@jacobg8640 No Problem Here Who are you talking to? Yes No Hello, it's your dad The enemy became tame What a great photograph it will bring back the fondest of memories those are probably the most common quotes you see in Earthbound lol (but not from Ness directly though)
Dear Nintendo from 1993-1994: This is how you were supposed to advertise your game. Not that "This game stinks" crap. Sincerely, your average Mother fan.
Yeah I'm gonna have to say it probably wasn't the game stinks ad. "Gross out" humor was what the 90s were all about. Just take a gander at 90s Nickelodeon to figure that one out.
@@spoopzey Even then, saying "this game stinks" it's a bit too direct and satirical. Satire and irony usually go over children's heads, especially in the 90s where that type of humor wasn't as common as it is now (compare with Undertale advertising "same as ever" and "almost no new content" in their Switch trailer).
We'll use irony and satirical humor with our ad campaign and say "this game stinks" even though most of our audience that consist of eight year olds won't get the very obvious joke about our ads and won't want their parents to buy the game for them. Oh, and include the players guide and up the price to a not so affordable one for some folk who actually did want the game. That's sure to reel people in and not forget this classic until years later. HAHAHA.
@@Sokobansolver Nintendo 2022: I'm still bummed out about how Pokey never actually got a proper conclusion or story after Earthbound, and how no sequel came from Earthbound.
I feel bad for developers of this game. They make a great game, but it's so underrated. Pokemon was inspired by this, but Pokemon ended up being the better, more famous, game
dadanikk Pokemon was not directly inspired by Earthbound (in fact the concept of Pokemon was formed a while before Earthbound's release, I think in 1991), aside from some possible nods to said game (i.e. Dragonite being possibly named after The Bag of Dragonite), but Ape Inc, one of the Earthbound's developers, later became Creatures Inc, which has been and still to this day works on developing the Pokemon games
***** It's more like Pokémon has some similarities. While Ape Inc. would later become Creatures Inc., EarthBound and Pokémon are drastically different. EarthBound isn't underrated. It's a cult classic. It's just that it was a commercial failure. It didn't sell well causing Nintendo to ignore it for the most part.
Thank you so much for releasing this on the VC Nintendo. For years I have regretted not getting to experience this masterpiece back in the 90's, and trying to get an original copy now is quite challenging. Thanks to this, I finally got to play my long lost love, and it was better than I could've hoped it to be. This game has become my number one reason to own a Wii U. This is what the VC is all about. Now about that sequal.
I remember back when I was in 5th grade, me and my friends ( 3 guys and a girl) went walking around the city and it reminded me of earthbound too! It brings me back
There's a whole extra layer to emulating a game. Those games were designed to run on the 3DS family of systems. Have you seen what it takes to emulate GameCube/Wii games on a PC? The specs are quite high, because it's easy harder to emulate a game versus running it naively.
PKMN Fan I'm expecting a Mother 3 release next year in commemoration of it's 10th anniversary or maybe even an announcement Tuesday. It would be really sweet to see Nintendo and the Mother fans work together publicly, possibly even a Mother 4 e-Shop release with Itoi's consent but maybe I'm thinking about it too much.
Frijolero18 It could take a while to be released here though. You see, unlike the first game, it wasn't already translated into English. Yes, I know the fans translated it and will give it to Nintendo of America for free, but I doubt they'd use it. You see, Sin and Punishment was fan translated, but NST did their own translation. I'd imagine they'd do the same for Mother 3.
gamequestions 45 Really, Did you watch the nintendo direct 4/1? Lucas is going to be in smash and ice climbers cant be in smash 4 because the 3ds cant handle 8 characters on screen at once so he cut them from both versions. So basically you lost, hes in the game.
Nice trailer... I think if Nintendo would have done something like this back in 1995 rather than it's "This game stinks" campaign, it may have been more successful...
02:15 I like how they put in a scene there that's only accessable via a series of glitches (pretty much only possible with TAS). (I'm obviously referring to Ness waking up from Magicant at the Liliput Steps instead of the Fire Spring.)
Yep, it was actually a more hype trailer than the recent one for the Switch and you went back to confirm it. Yep, it's from 2013, but you were thinking it came out like 4 years ago.
10 years ago today. That was the first time I ever played it because that was the daily it became available on Wii U. No exaggeration: I haven't had a single day pass by since where I haven't thought about EarthBound at least once. It has remained my favorite game of all-time, until I tried Mother 3 a few years ago. Happy 10th anniversary for the Earthbound Wii U release!
This series needs to come back. I know the creator said that the series is done but that doesn't mean remakes are out of the question. Having mother 1-3 bundled together on the Wii u with hd sprites remastered audio and in 1080p would be awesome
0:00 From being rated K-A for Animated Violence… To T for Fantasy Violence, Mild Blood, Suggestive Themes, and Crude Humor. The ESRB has come a long way.
Did you know the songs that toby fox made are just sounds used from earthbound? Like all of his undertale songs, there mostly made from samples from earthbound
I hope this had sold well, I bought this the moment I saw it in the eShop. Most underrated franchise in history, I really hope this sells and we see more out of the franchise like 3DS remakes or a GBA Virtual Console Bundle of all 3 Mother Titles. I hope HAL or APE remaster of Mother 2 for the Wii U or 3DS, like how MK9 retold the story of the original trilogy but with some significant twists. I'd love to see a more intimate relationship with the villain, like someone in your team pulls a "Fire Emblem betrayal" and joins Giygas. But it would have to be very personal, the character has to be right at home with the Player and Ness, so why not introduce a younger brother to Ness, whose is around 9 years old, into the Earthbound story? Pokey Minch wasn't the twist I wanted for the game, it wasn't hard to figure out his purpose as a character in a serious story. What would be nice is if there is a Lord of the Flies aspect, where you slowly watch a good person turn psychotic. Seeing how the Mother Franchise is about the relationship between a Child and Mother, it would be intense to see Ness' younger brother ventures off from his character's context and turn flat-out evil so he can gain the one thing that matters most to him and Giygas: being the center focus of their Mother's Relationship. Giygas was abandoned physically, so an emotionally abandoned child would be the perfect match. It'd be really intense to watch how the insanity of jealousy unfold, and how hard-questions have to be asked and answered. Instead of going home with a girl and two new friends, you the Player and Ness walk home with your dead baby brother's body in your arms, which has scares from being possessed by Giygas. We then watch as Ness chokes up in tears and tries to explain what had happen to the beloved child to their beloved mother. Earthbound has always been a mature title, so why not have Ness answer the hard questions we have all been asking?
I remember watching this trailer when I was around 8 years old, the beginning always made me not want to watch it, but I managed to push through and ended up finding out about one of the greatest rpg franchises of all time. I could barely understand what was going on in the video(all I knew was Giygas was bad and you had to stop him but that was all I knew, I also think there was a Nintendo minute episode on it) but I wanted to get it to see what it was all about because it looked like so much fun, I guess even little kid me knew masterpieces when I saw them. Now with it on Nintendo switch online, I can finally fulfill an 8 year old dream of mine. Thank you earthbound for being part of my childhood even though I couldn’t play you until now.
Nintendo, PLEASE bring back virtual console with your next system. I know that Nintendo Switch Online makes you a lot of money, but so many fans prefer Virtual console for so many reasons. (Being able to only buy games you really want, being able to able to go right to any game via the menu, etc.). I don’t mean to sound too rude or demanding, but I would really love if Virtual Console could return.
I mean they Said that's the future of how they handle older games it makes sense for them to do this cause you can buy 3 to 4 NES/SNES games and for that price you can just have acess to every NES and SNES and Gameboy game boy game across the service for the same price for a year. A lot more bang for your buck compared to the past.
I love this game nintendo bring back the Mother series please I beg of you. Please you'll be helping many kids like me who found an send in the attic and a copy of earthbound very happy to play a good RPG game.
I don't want Mother 3 free. I'd pay up to 10 dollars for it too if they release it translated for the GBA VR in the Wii U. Also please Nintendo make a Mother 4 or a spiritual successor idk, for the New/3DS or Wii U. Maybe the original creator doesn't want any involvement but I'm sure you have a lot of other creative minds in there who can be up for the challange, am I wrong?
Yeah I know. I'm not saying that I hate the idea of it, I'll definitely give it a try because they are actually trying to show Nintendo how much we care for another one since they are kindly asking for us to buy EarthBound, which I did.
Nintendo in 2013 and 2015: we’re bringing the beloved Masterpiece Earthbound and long awaited Mother 1 to the Wii U. Nintendo in 2021: what’s Earthbound? Here have a hundred caveman games no one has heard about.
This game is one of the many reasons why I got a Wii U! There are so many moments throughout this crazy game that really make you think. This game reminds us that the SNES was the king of RPGs!
Nintendo 1994: This game STINKS!! Don't play it hahaha! Nintendo 2013: A masterpiece. A cult classic. Beloved by fans. Returning for those who love it. Nintendo 2021: What's Earthbound?
Nintendo please release Mother 1 and 3 to the US already! Earthbound is already one of your best selling VC games on Wii U. If not then let's get a remake of all of them on Wii U.
FINALLY i've never been able to experience this game BC i dont have a SNES but now all of my dreams of playing this game came true THANK YOU NINTENDO!!!
This, 3D World, Smash Bros. 4, Mario Bros. U, and Mario Kart 8 convinced me that I need a Wii u. Oh and Pikmin 3 as well. Too bad I was born three months before this game came out or I would have bought it before it got so expensive on ebay.
The fact that they acknowledged this as a “beloved masterpiece” and haven’t touched it again for 7 years pains me
This game was a beloved masterpiece. 2 dollars more of a masterpiece than other snes games.
It was on the classic snes but that was it
@Kirby lover they could get so much money from rereleasing it
They just released it on Switch!
@@cinnyslittlefriends1379 i was just about to say that

I love this game nintendo bring back the Mother series please I beg of you. Please you'll be helping many kids like me who found an send in the attic and a copy of earthbound very happy to play a good RPG game.
Add this to switch nintendo!!
Couldn’t agree more!
Played this on my 3ds, I now love it ever since I beated it
Earthbound ON THE SWITCH I’m waitin for it you can take my money now
I'm waiting for Mother 3
I'm waiting for earthbound beginning
I don't want Mother 3 free. I'd pay up to 10 dollars for it too if they release it translated for the GBA VR in the Wii U.
Also please Nintendo make a Mother 4 or a spiritual successor idk, for the New/3DS or Wii U. Maybe the original creator doesn't want any involvement but I'm sure you have a lot of other creative minds in there who can be up for the challange, am I wrong?
I meant VC (Virtual Console)
The fan game that's been in development for almost 6 years now if going to be released soon.
Yeah I know.
I'm not saying that I hate the idea of it, I'll definitely give it a try because they are actually trying to show Nintendo how much we care for another one since they are kindly asking for us to buy EarthBound, which I did.
Itoi said he's done with the series.
Take a look at Citizens of Earth. It's something of a Love Letter to Earthbound by Atlus. Definitely worth a look, if nothing else.
Nintendo in 2013 and 2015: we’re bringing the beloved Masterpiece Earthbound and long awaited Mother 1 to the Wii U.
Nintendo in 2021: what’s Earthbound? Here have a hundred caveman games no one has heard about.
I get your point but don't talk crap about Joe & Mac. That game is great.
yeah man I heard Joe and Mac was good, try it before you hate it
@@wool578 I’m not hating on them, I just find it strange that we’re getting so many caveman games
And a calculator
This game is one of the many reasons why I got a Wii U! There are so many moments throughout this crazy game that really make you think. This game reminds us that the SNES was the king of RPGs!
Apparently, over 6000 people made a mystic prince in their pants when they found out that this was coming on the WII-U.
Beto Perez why not?
Beto Perez hey!! its my game nintendo gets to do whatever they want.
WYNAUT?!?!
@@impstercyan--7570 SHUT UP.
i am giggling
Nintendo 1994: This game STINKS!! Don't play it hahaha!
Nintendo 2013: A masterpiece. A cult classic. Beloved by fans. Returning for those who love it.
Nintendo 2021: What's Earthbound?
Nintendo 2022: EarthBound and Earthbound Beginnings, Now available for Nintendo Switch.
Nintendo please release Mother 1 and 3 to the US already! Earthbound is already one of your best selling VC games on Wii U. If not then let's get a remake of all of them on Wii U.
At least you got Mother 1
Mother 3 isn't happening
FINALLY i've never been able to experience this game BC i dont have a SNES but now all of my dreams of playing this game came true THANK YOU NINTENDO!!!
don't you scare me like that youtube recommendations
I want Earthbound or Earthbound remake on Switch
Same
I know.
This, 3D World, Smash Bros. 4, Mario Bros. U, and Mario Kart 8 convinced me that I need a Wii u. Oh and Pikmin 3 as well. Too bad I was born three months before this game came out or I would have bought it before it got so expensive on ebay.
Saw this in 2021 and thought we were getting it for snes online for a brief, joyous moment
Does this game still smell bad? I don't want to open a window when it's so cold.
No it's smells nice... When mother 3 comes out
PSI Pen, because the pen is stronger than the sword
Nintendo 8 years later: "how about we do it again"
My all time favorite. I absolutely love this game.
This game is God-tier besides the inventory system.
Mother 3 washes
"Fight hippies".... Ok, I'm in. *pulls out debit card*
I'm in for it to
YES IT'S FINALLY HERE YAY
