You know why the giant moles in the mine all claim to be the third strongest? Its because each mole fought each other mole one-on-one, and they each won twice and lost twice since they're identical. So they think they're the third most powerful.
18:13 lol imagine if you played mother 2 after mother 1 and they kept this scene intact. you go in and the game gives you the option to sing to gyiyg and you think it's just gonna be another fight like the first game, so you do and nothing happens, and then porky calls you a dumbass lmao also the running gag with the signs wouldve been so interesting too im sad these were removed over time, imo these wouldve made the game even better even if you didnt have context from the previous game or anything.
Absolutely incredible there’s still new stuff being found for Earthbound. All of these new bits of trivia are hella cool! Like that there was going to be a scene that bridged that gap after being jumped in Threed. That bulletin board pun and how it’s partially localized is really neat too. Just love the Mother series so much.
@@necrosadotor like okay, 1, who asked, and 2, you see content restoration mods all the time for other games. What you find useless might be considered quirky to others, like for example Orange kid asking for his copy of mother back or finding a way to properly implement the bubble monkey behavior, or fighting the weakest guy in Twoson. Someone else might find it interesting to play a version of the game that could have been, and a lot of this stuff can add quirks to an already quirky game
MAD respect to fan translators like Aeon Genesis and of course Clive Mandelin with MOTHER 3. I'm an Evangelion fan, so I know it's hard as shit to translate Japanese to English especially in the context of a game, movie, or series since they're constantly moving and have space limits like lip flaps or dialogue boxes, so guys going out of their way to translate ENTIRE RPGS solely out of love and passion is absolutely insane and they deserve all the recognition in the world.
You know, I wish they'd make two versions when it comes to Japanese games. One that is translated but with additional context given (Like most fansubs do for anime), and one that is localised.
20:44 Guess you could say that fortunately, one of the translators _sharpened_ their mind before the final release Really intriguing discoveries, by the way, it's cool whenever old games have brand new info about them revealed out of nowhere, and it's especially sick when it's with a classic like EarthBound
Huh, it's interesting to see even one of the most nostalgia games to still get more discovery about it today. Perhaps maybe....a little remastered unused cutscenes may be animated~
YESSS MORE EARTHBOUND CONTENT!! Outstanding work guys! Please keep making more and more discoveries about this game! Earthbound will truly never stop being the best game ever with endless heaps of new content waiting to be revealed :)
Even if it’s just for internal reference, it makes sense. It’s way easier than saying “That guy in the store in the starting town” when you’re hunting through code to fix a bug.
It truly is amazing that there are still new behind-the-scenes details being discovered about this wonderful game! EarthBound is a classic that made a substantial impact on me as a kid, and I'd love to see more discoveries like these.
Are we just gonna gloss over the fact they gave Paula's father a full name in Paul Jones? This means Paula's full name is Paula Jones, and she's named after her father. That's wild to learn after all these years.
I guess those blank “update patch” pages in the back of the EarthBound localization book can finally be filled in...I can’t believe Mato said that there might even be enough new discoveries here to fill out an entire new book!
When we talk about Earthbound we always refer to its mechanics, gameplay and its characteristics, from the smallest to the largest, however when we talk about these moments no one can forget that strange moment of the Monotoli tower when we reached the 48th floor, In the long corridor that connected the elevator and some doors, 2 of the rest could be distinguished, one with a red glass, and the other with a blue glass (you could say that they were the bathrooms), and when you approached these doors you could not pass , only a dialogue appeared that said "*groan" when you tried to enter one of the doors, as a child one could think that it was someone hurt, but now as an adult one can say that that was not the meaning of that message, maybe if and we are all misguided but for me it is something extremely strange. Honestly it is a particular detail of this game, as something that could seem like something for children 12 and up hid this little detail in the Monotoli tower, which is in Fourside.
7:12 I'm guessing the massage woman was what they had planned before the magic cake. It mentions dreams, and Poo's little adventure could have been seen as a dream. (Edit: Yeah he says this, didn't go that far in the video before writing this.)
I just stumbled across this video and the Magic Cake thing blew my mind. I had cake set as the favorite food, so all this time I assumed the game was programmed to offer Magic (favorite food).
Those dev files probably would've been helpful for porting to the GBA. I read somewhere that the text was a ton of code spaghetti, and this confirms that.
Friggin’ awesome!! I love this game so damn much having played it as a kid when it first released. Finding out new info and content is just so damn awesome. Great video! Thank you for sharing it!
Love this game, even though I kind of disliked it at first. Didn't realize how awesome it would be until I got all of the different characters, and realized how much it trolled other RPG's. Cheers to Earthbound!
I’m replaying this classic right now and was looking up info on the game and this right here was such a fascinating listen! Thanks for sharing and digging!
If it wasn't for your username, I would have thought that title would just be some sort of listicle article that was just telling me all the same stuff I already know about Earthbound. I think a title like "New information discovered about Earthbound in 2021" might be a belter title. Or "Never before seen notes about Earthbound."
I agree. I came here hoping to see things that were actually, you know, in the game. Cut content is cool, but it's not what the title implies the video is.
I am not a fan of Earthbound, but I really love learning about video game history, especially with such a famous game like this. I briefly checked your channel, I would love to see more 15-30 minute discussion of a game's development history. The format for this video was spectacular.
Great discovery and great video! A minor nitpick, at 23:12, in the section with messages from japanese devs to american translators we can read a mention to Paul Mouria, but I'm mostly sure it actually refers to Paul Mauriat. Curiously enough, the first movie adapation of Urasawa's 20th Century Boys opens with a track by Mauriat, I guess he was pretty popular in the latest half of the last century in Japan.
Huh. So we have the cafe/bar owner named "Jackie" and a hostess named "Betty". And in MOTHER 3, the sequel, there are characters called "Jackie" and "Betsy". Curious.
13:07 The bartender being named Jack is a reference to Twin Peaks, which has a bar in the show called "One Eyed Jack's", or less likely- the 1961 Western that Twin Peaks was referencing with the same name
This is the last game my Big Brother and I completed together. We'd wait till night came and play all the way till morning, we even had a bug that erased the game so we beat it together twice. He didn't live with me so it was a long time to beat, it's my special memory of the tv's blue glow shining on my brother's face as he was fearlessly able to beat the "Scary" enemies to 8 year old me. I will never grow tired of earthbound lore. Thanks.
Earthbound is my favorite game, and this is the Holy Grail for me, especially seeing the scene of Ness and Paula being DRUG to the graveyard. Hell, when I replayed it last year, it blew my mind that Porky actually reminds you to equip the Cracked Bat if you try to leave without doing it, and that you can use the Pencil and Eraser Eraser's on the Mani Mani Statue for a special message.
Just found your channel, any chance you might want to cover Monster Party for the nes? It has a fairly interesting backstory of how it was a huge parody game that had to have major changes to be released in the US and was still never released in Japan and for years we all thought the original version was lost only to have someone find a rom of the original a few years ago
Listen...I used to be a guard for a museum myself and my name is Omar as well....seeing a character in this game with my name and one of my previous jobs is such a trip.
I would bet the bad pun guy in the bar being named "Jimmy" is actually a reference to a famous comedian in Japan named Jimmy. There's even a docu-drama about him on netflix titled "Jimmy: The True Story of a True Idiot"
The printed US version of the game guide calls the Mani Mani statue guy "Mr Mizu" Strange random fact I remember clearly from being a kid in the 90s lol
I'm 34 and played EB when i was 8, was my first rpg and has been influential to me and it amazes me how i still find content i came across an electronic song from 1988 that sounds like it was the idea for the Kraken of the sea ost?~~~ " Zsa Zsa Laboum - Something Scary"
i feel like once porkey got cut off from giygas, he wasn't able to time travel with his body intact, and eventually figured out to to do it like you do in the robots, which is how he gets the letter to you. i havn't played mother 3 to know if it ties to him being old like that or it really felt like that is what they were going for on that scene with letter at the time
That’s what I was thinking too! We do know that Itoi has at least seen Twin Peaks-he compared its “flavor” to the Tanetane Island sequence in MOTHER 3.
@A guy with no content It was most likely scrapped due to oil massages being associated with nuru massages in Japan, an erotic oil massage and they probably thought that seemed weird even in the original Japanese version.
Good video. I have to say I died a little inside hearing "Onett" pronounced as "Awnett".. Granted as a kid I called it ""Oh-net" for months until my dad pointed out the one, two, three, four scheme for cities so I started calling it "Wunnet".. 1-ett?
Damn to think back in the day I rented this game complete w/the box and the guide included in fairly good condition too. Think about how much that would be worth today just think about it!
I forget whose name you said it was, but Prettz caught my attention, there's this two episode OVA based roughly on Final Fantasy 5 where the main character is given the name Prettz, and, if you know your FF5, the main character was incorrectly translated to Bartz... but his name is actually Buttz. So, that's a weird name to just drop in out of nowhere.
I never played this, but I would like to try -keyword try- in the future. my highschool boyfriend showed me it eay back when, always thought it was fascinating how so much is crammed and jammed into this game and winds up being a weird sci-fi spiritual work of art.
You know why the giant moles in the mine all claim to be the third strongest? Its because each mole fought each other mole one-on-one, and they each won twice and lost twice since they're identical. So they think they're the third most powerful.

"A shop that serves pencil" seems like a very EarthBound line. Almost strange to me that they changed it to be more "proper".
Lucy, Donna, Audrey, Jack, Josie... yeah I think someone was a Twin Peaks fan!!
Itoi was a Twin Peaks fan, as the sequence in Tanetane Island in Mother 3 was inspired by Twin Peaks.
Thats why the bartender has an eyepatch! One-eyed jack

The weakest man in Twoson sounds like he could be some kind of Anti Piracy but im not sure

Shows you how ideas can change a lot when development starts compared to when it's finished. What I learned from this.
Let's just appreciate how few NPC sprites are reused in this game from the 90s. It's pretty great.
