I've been playing Mother 3 again, I don't know why. I've already played through it twice, but this time I decided to use the English translation by spookychee on GameFAQ's. Actually, the first two playthroughs were with no translation at all, just a rough idea of the storyline with a little imagination added. This way is much better, to play it with the translation. Even though it's not the translation patch, it's OK. I guess I'm just getting impatient with waiting for the English translation patch that Tomato and others from Starmen.net are working on. Of course, I'll definitely play it once, twice, three times, well jeez, probably 50 times with the English translation patch, but I just felt like playing it again recently.
I'm on chapter 7 already, about 20 hours into the game. God, it still amazes me. It still makes me so happy, sad, melancholy I guess... to play the game. Playing it with the translation is so awesome. Knowing what someone is saying makes it a completely different game. It's hard to believe that I had actually played it completely in Japanese, not knowing a lick of what they were saying before.
I love Mother3. I love Shigesato Itoi. Amazing. Absolutely amazing.
If you haven't played it, you should. Just try to. When the patch comes out, play it.. That is, if you're an English speaker.
On the other hand, if you're Japanese, play it in Japanese. You won't regret it. It's not that long of a game. It's not that hard to get through, even on low levels. If you're experienced at RPGs you'll fly through it, but even if you're not, you'll still make it through with little to no trouble at all.
Just play it!! For me??? It's like, a greatest hits game now in Japan. Not sure of the term they use there, but you can buy it on Play-Asia.com now for $14.90 USD. That's super cheap. You should just play it.
If you don't wanna buy it, just download the rom at least. In fact, play EarthBound first. If you haven't played EarthBound... well then I don't know what. But, if you want to understand me at all, you have to play EarthBound. That game influenced every aspect about my personality to this day. Everything that I'm interested in, everything I say, my sense of humor ... Just play it. It's an amazing game. If you think games like Final Fantasy 7 and Chrono Trigger are amazing, try EarthBound if you haven't. It's better, WAY better than those games... In my opinion. But, even if you don't think it's the best game ever after playing it, you will rank it up there with those games, I promise.
And if not, I'm sorry but you have no taste in games. Sad, but true.

Hi everyone! Thanks for visiting my blog! My name is Samantha, and I really love video games. I love them so much, that I feel the need to write and talk about them on an almost constant basis! Actually, that's my job, to talk about video games. I've been doing it day in and day out at work for years, but even after hours I feel the need to talk about video games.
A little about me? I'm 21, and I live in the United States. I can't tell you where I live right now, sorry! Other than video games, I also like to play Magic: The Gathering, Pool and shopping for clothes. I'm a huge science-fiction junkie but even more so an extra terrestrial enthusiast.
I would consider my expertise for video games in the 2nd-6th gen of gaming consoles.

Earthbound was the most amazing game ever when I was a kid. I still remember to this day the alien attack and the Backyard of the arcade where you fight that kid.
Fun times...wish I could find that game around here =/
sounds like you could use more rancors in your deck. theyre +2/+0 but they give trample and return to your hand.
Hmm...Well apparently i have no taste in games. Not that i care. I'm not a fan of rpg's, theres only three types of games i actually like. "Stealth" games, or as they should be called, subtlety games. Mainly MGS, the Hitman series, and Thief. (The spy in tf2 counts also.) Fighting games, only one series, and that's soul calibur. And action games, but again, only one series. The devil may cry series. That's where most of my personality comes from, im more like dante than any other character. Devil may cry 2 dante of course, that being the game he was most mature in. The character i'm furthest away from is Nero. He's far too emotional to be similiar to me.
To simplify this, i'm an amoral, apathetic, cynical, asshole that apparently has a horrible taste in games. A person that believes a good story line can go fuck itself if the game isn't entertaining to him. Thanks for reading.
I never had the most up to date consoles as a kid; and I don't remember hearing about Earthbound in the pal universe (damn you PAL!!!)
Gotta say you might have me jumping on the bandwagon though, although I still haven't played through the Chrono games, which is another thing on my 'to do' list.
If you get stifled at any point, you can buy detailed guides via amazon.jp - something tells me you're set for information re: mother3 though
