funny thing, I'm playing that RIGHT NOW. ON MY DS.

They got SNES emulators that aren't balls now?

Ehh, it glitches sometimes in all honesty, and it only plays .smc ROM's. But, it's working alright for the most part.

Cool, last time I checked it hardly even worked

There's a couple of em out there. I use SNEmulDS, with little trouble.

Link plz

http://www.snemul.com/ds/ for to use on a NOT R4, or other flashcarts.

Right, I'll NOT use it on my NOT M3

I hope you DON'T enjoy your NOT piracy endeavors.

I WON'T, this ISN'T awesome stuff

The most distrubing part of it all is the fact as to where the concept of Giygas' form came from. The creator of the game said that it came from a traumatic childhood experience when he accidentally walked into a porno showing a rape scene.

We all carry our dark and terrible moments with us. It's just understanding those moments and learning to continue our lives without disregarding or denying those moments that makes us stronger.

it wasnt actually a porno movie.

read down, itll tell you about the movie

Wow, I never knew that. Thank you.
Still the entire boss (and most of the game actually) is a totally mind freak.
I love it and I hate it at the same time. It hurts my brain at times and it reaches beyond the normal confines of a video game and touches the player personally.

Earthbound is like no game before and no game after. It stands alone as THE game for world to figure out.

yea. its just so weird to have a quirky funny game turn so dark at the end

...sorry, I have to make this joke...-pulls out a doll- It touched you? Show me where on this dolly?

And then years later Giygas went on to become Mewtwo
....aparently ¬_¬

Wha?

Giygas from Mother 1 (EB Zero) looks like Mewtwo

It's said the development team for Pokemon (some or many of whom worked on Mother/Earthbound got their inspiration for Mewtwo from Giygas.
However theres some debate as to whether or not that information is valid or reliable.

In a similar way that Neon Genesis Evangelion was the anime for the world to figure out. That kind of mind warping weirdness?

That came back out on the DS? WHEN!? And apparently Earthbond was originally called Mother 2. Apprently Mother 1 never made it to the states. -nod nod-

its not for DS, anyone who has it on DS has it on a flashcart.

You could also play the Mother 1+2 port for the GBA

Did anyone translate it?

Just M1, I guess they didn't have a need for Earthbound to be translated

I have Giygas nightmares.

lol

Wait
is it

õ_õ

Sad how that game is my favourite SNES game. XD

Thanks for pointing it out, now I feel less guilty
