We’re not sure to buy it, however, it seems much more likely that despite a very avid fan base, Nintendo isn’t convinced the game would find a large enough audience to justify the investment in that “demanding” localization job. Coincidentally, game producer Shinichi Kameoka also recently speculated that translating Itoi’s unique writing style could be a sticking point for an official Western release.

We had EarthBound Beginnings on Wii U (the unedited localization of the first entry reserved for Famicom) and recently we heard from Reggie Fils-Aimé that there have been “serious conversations” about a potential release for the portable trequel.
However, backward compatibility meant that Japanese gamers entering the heyday of WiiDS didn’t have to whip out their old PDA to enjoy the final chapter of writer Shigesatao Itoi’s trilogy.įervent fans have been calling for Mother 3’s official Western debut for over a decade and a half, but despite the behind-the-scenes conversation, there’s still no sign of that. The sequel to the classic cult EarthBound – the SNES entry in Mother series that sold little in the US and didn’t see the light in Europe until the release of a Wii U and 3DS virtual console – was a very late arrival on GBA. The fact that Mother 3 was never located and officially released outside of Japan has been a source of sadness and frustration for EarthBound fans in the West since the game launched on the Game Boy Advance in 2006.
