@@trayvordemonslayer Yeah, stuff's really expensive in the Mother games so I'm pretty sure the prices were based on Yen rather than dollars, even though two of them have very American settings.
Earth bound would make a great show or anime or whatever. The story has aged pretty well but not many people even know this series exists and so they never get to hear this tragic tail. I think a show of some sorts would be an amazing way to tell the story and I can already picture the last final scenes with everyone watching just balling their eyes out lol.

@@ceej5690 that sounds dope, gonna have to check it out

Bro shinji and Lucas feel the exact same bruh 💀
If not Ghibli then, Ponoc aka The New Hope can make it!
I guess it does make sense, your mother died, your dad peaced out, and the only family you have left just killed themselves right in front of you...
It's completely understandable for a young boy to hate the world after going through that, that's why when he told the dragon his feelings, the dragon destroyed the world, which is just what Lucas really wanted at that point in time
But deep inside a small part of him wanted the world to be safe, giving the ending to think about what may have happened.
If there’s no care for spoilers, he completely skipped the part where your dad dives in front of a non lightning attack from claus and is majorly damaged, saving you
That's not what the ending of Mother 3 is at all.
Yeah, because in the end everyone "survived", implying that they are alive and that the world was probably reincarnated.
Yeah I think Lucas did want to destroy the world ,but also to save everyone give them a second chance so that's what happened
The absolutely safe capsule is one of the most horrifying things I've ever heard about.
Honestly yeah. It's still very good in Smash though.

Eventually porky stopped thinking
The first two Mother games: Pretty upbeat until the freaky alien boss at the end.
Mother 3: DEPRESSING AS HELL!!!
Yes, the alien boss was freaky. Not sure if it was already mentioned, but the boss battle (5:00) showed creepy ghost-like faces PLUS the hidden silhouettes of a fetus. I didn't notice this the first time I played it but read about it many years later. I forgot what the fetus meant or symbolizes in the story.
The fans says the fight against Giygas is actually an “abortion”, but this was deconfirmed.
1: a happy tale about a few children learning PSI and defending earth from gyiyg
2: a darker but still lighthearted tale of a group of teens going to 8 mystical locations and killing gyiyg/giygas
3: A heartbreaking story of a boy whose mother and brother who are dead. and having to fight against his killers and having to fight with his own twin brother.
yall ignoring when Poo had his limbs ripped off and eyes gouged out by a ghost?
Miles Gaunt yeah I was kinda freaked out by that and kept thinking “Is this still Poo or his ancestral spirit?” throughout the whole game.
Man that end scene in Earthbound where it says the players name prays for the party, dude that hit me so hard as a kid I literally teared up
I like to interpret that the ending of Mother 3 is pretty much as true neutral as it can get. My interpretation is that since Claus, being under the influence of Porky (or even furthermore, Giygas, the literal embodiment of evil itself), when he pulled the 3 needles that he did, that was of course enough to cause a cataclysmic apocalypse for the whole world, but when Lucas pulled out his 4 needles, that was enough to save everyone's souls, but they would pretty much all live in a true purgatory; although since of course Lucas pulled one extra needle in the end result, everyone can go on "living their lives" as normal.
My interpretation is that the Dragon destroyed every possible influence of the chimeras. The logo is an amalgamation of organic wood and synthetic metal, hinting at the deeds of the pigmasks. After the credits, the logo is shown again, but this time it's only made out of wood, with the globe for an O, similar to Earthbound Beginnings. The dragon reconstructed the whole world to its good, organic state. The only thing it couldn't destroy is Porky and his Absolutely Safe Capsule, thats why you can still talk to him when the screen is all black. The Pigmasks are completely destroyed, but all the good guys that were alive before Lucas pulled the needle are still alive and well. As for the black screen, I have only vague ideas. The Mother games are known for interacting with the player directly, like having one pray during the Giygas Battle. Maybe it's the game's way of saying "Your time in the game world is now over, you need to go, goodbye!" The characters of the game even say goodbye to the player after all. It may sound silly, but hey, it's a Mother game
Ninten:lets sing
Ness:heh I don't speak at all
Lucas:really depressed since 2006
smash bro's announcer: and the winner is...
ness: mmm?
@Ur Money Lol ... what
@Ur Money Lol im confused more on, where the hell do I say Lucas doesnt, talk.
@Ur Money Lol oh its fine.
Mother: fight against aliens!
Earthbound: fight against aliens!
Mother. 3: fight against capitalism.
And death!
and depression
This went from being mother 3 to being persona 3 real fast
excessive materialism, not capitalism
truly the industrial revolution and its consequences have been a disaster for the human race
My theory to the ending of Earthbound:
Lucas was a good enough person to the point where when he pulled the final needle, he saved the world instead of ending it, and everybody was okay.
Mother 1: Pretty good RPG
Mother 2: Very good RPG with good story. and fun gameplay

It’s also his up-smash
Pretty much
Even with this telling being as casual it is, the Mother 3 ending still makes me tear up
What I love most about the Mother series is how once you dig past the strange and quirky exterior, you find deep and complicated story.
I literally cried at the additional ending scene when (I think) Lucas said:
"It looks like things will work out here, but what about your world? Will it be alright?"
"Hey, other world. Be good to (player)!"
It hits different considering what has happened this year.
Oof
Yes, I just couldn't stop crying while I read this part. I was diagnosed with major depression back in my youth and was forced to take a suspension 'cause I have suicidal thoughts and was acting it out at school. I was like super defensive and merely cry even I'm depressed, but man.
@@j.d.4241 I hope you are better now 🥰

I didn’t realize Mother 3 was so dark. Like, Lucas had to go through his mother dying and after nearly escaping death his brother ran away causing his dad to start looking for him leaving Lucas to fend for himself. And then he has to watch his brother kill himself, wow.
When everyone is talking about Breath of the wild, I'm always like b#tch please, Lucas and Samus had it way worse with a lot more trauma to go with it.
@@geoffreygoncalves931 I mean throughout the games, reincarnated link has gone through alot
I bet Lucas would get along well with Zuko
@@geoffreygoncalves931 Breath of the wild.... dude, are you serious? This is probably the dumbest comparison ever made
Not only watching his brother commit suicide, he also (unwillingly) *help* the brother kill himself
4:39 - the "Rorschach" background, when paused at a certain time, looks like a human fetus. The "intestines" stage is essentially a vagina & a cervix. You went back in time to kill Giygas when he was a fetus, when he was the most vulnerable, before he was evil.
Not sure about this part, but I gotta share it. People take this a step further with rumors that the lines Giygas says are supposed to be lines from a victim during rape. People guess that's what the lines are about because Itoi admitted it was influenced from a traumatic experience he had as a child when he witnessed a rape scene in a movie (the movie was called The Military Policeman and the Dismembered Beauty). The "You cannot comprehend the true form of Giygas' attack" wasn't because Giygas was evil, because here in the past he's just a fetus trying to defend himself, pleading that we can be friends. Pocky calls him pure evil, but Pocky always lies.
About Mother 3, I've seen some people suggest you're already in heaven at the beginning of the game, the end of the world has already happened. The faithful have been taken on the "white ship" to the island where there is no suffering or war.
But what's the most crazy is Mother 3's references to the Biblical book of Revelations, where Satan is described as a sleeping dragon (like the one under the island) and 7 seals (like 7 needles) that if opened start the Apocolypse...which is essentially what happens in the game.
I have heard this theory before about fighting Giygas as a fetus. I don't buy it at all.
Guigas is fetus theory just doesn't work out for me. More like he took a dark path to gain immense dark power to finally get rid of his 8 melodies and love for Maria weaknesses once and for all, became a fallen godlike creature and imploded upon using all the power of darkness he had, only to be in primitive pain, fear and agony, fighting as desperately as wounded cornered animal with all the reflexes and instincts left against everything he encounters, that isn't under his control. In one of fight's "musical" themes , if to reverse it , it will say "I'm so sorry" multiple times, seems like his mind almost left his body from all the messed up stuff his power did to him and all mind that's left mostly unable to say anything because of agony, probably meaning he can't tell this directly anymore, so all he can do is to try with all his mind can do to apologize, even if party can't hear what he actually says, just hear something creepy sounding like a voice. Whatever he says to Ness is probably PSI power , he has more control over, but his state not allowing him to say anything reasonable, only express feelings.
Guigas taking a shape of a fetus could be true though as long as you don't overcomplicate it. Could just be asking for pity defence mechanism. Could be his weakness hiding within creepy red siluets, well protected by them. Could be to add even more shock to the players who see and recognize a fetus among all the madness and scary things happening. It's open to interpretation, and the right interpretation for you should probably shock you the most to match perfectly with the ideas behind this boss fight.
I save your life in 3 seconds
Just turn upside Giygas's final form
*You're welcome*
The fetus was an unintentional result of Giygas's sprite being made to loop on itself. The scene Itoi walked in on was a dismemberment scene, not a rape scene. I never heard his full version of the story, so I could believe that he may have believed it was a rape scene. Regardless, Giygas' fight is meant to be representative of the loss of innocence, which is what that traumatic experience did to Itoi. Giygas basically is the concept of corruption, which is why his lines are so confusing. "f r i e n d s" "I f e e l g o o d" "I t h u r t s" it's this unnerving idea of extreme pain being pleasure. Sadomasochism isn't exactly something the mind of a child is built to comprehend, but when they're forced to understand it, among many other things, innocence assuredly dies, and corruption starts to take root.
Mother 1/EarthBound Beginnings: STOP THE RANDOM ENCOUNTERS!

It was kinda easy to predict who the Masked Man was. He's kid-sized, and who's the one kid in the game who happens to be conveniently missing?
Though, in fairness, this was a game for kids. Kids are usually less familiar with writing cliches like than adults are, since they've absorbed a lot less media overall.
@@Bawhoppen Mother 3 wasn’t aimed at kids in the first place, though
Pretty sure the game expects you to know that
it's not supposed to be a shocking or unexpected reveal. most players will figure it out immediately and the rest piece it together as the game goes on.
the presence of the masked man throughout the game is not characterized by mystery or intrigue but rather a sort of unspoken consensus on who it is and a reluctance to confront a very painful truth. the lack of explicit confirmation of his identity is not to preserve a surprising revelation but rather to delay the inevitable. it's not that no one knows, it's that no one wants to talk about it.
the party members do not indicate that they are clueless as to who he is, but they do seem very reluctant to bring it up. the topic is rarely mentioned and one of the only things kumatora has to say about it is "that masked man... is he? nevermind. it doesn't matter". as for lucas, the visual distortions and surreal music during masked man encounters seem to indicate that on some level he knows who he is.
when the truth finally is revealed, it's pretty notably downplayed. brief confirmation, mostly to cap off flint's character and to set up the final encounter. certainly not presented like an earth-shattering moment. you could compare this to the extremely dramatic revelation of hinawa's death, which *is* supposed to be shocking.
It's pretty much a rule in general, if there is a missing character and a masked person, the missing person has like an 80% chance of being the masked person

@@link113gaming That's the one I played on the emulator but I would love to have a physical copy of it !! 😁
"You can't grasp the true form of Giygas' attack"
I played it on an emulator, and after DAYS of that boss fight, I decided to look up how to use cheats because I was being killed constantly, no matter how much damage I made.
After that didn't work out either, I decided the game was either broken, or I was supposed to do something specific, like with Poo's meditation being interrupted (it took me a while to realize I was supposed to keep meditating), so I started to try everything. Finally I found out I had to pray. I loaded the savestate from earlier in the fight (the one I was playing was a couple of hours throwing shit at Giygas without success), and finished it in a blink because I also overleveled myself like there's no tomorrow.
Mother: fighting vengeful alien
Earthbound: fighting evil messed up alien
Mother 3: fighting thousand year old child dictator
And crying. So much crying.
"No crying until the end" is impossible to follow when the sad Mother 3 music plays.
I know Mother 3 gets a lot of love, but honestly Mother 1 is my favorite. Maybe it's the relatively simple story, or the American setting but it just hits all the right notes for me.
Gotta love how every final boss in the series is beaten in an unconventional way. With singing, prayer, and... brotherly love, I guess?
Mother 1: Life’s great I’m destined to defeat an alien with a song.

Mother 3: Everyone died and i woke a dragon by pulling out 7 needles
So...what's up for Mother 4?
First game: never played it
Second game: I had a blast. It was witty, funny and dark.
Third game: I had to contact a surgeon who removed the lacrimal glands (tear glands) from my eyes because of how sad the game is

Mother 3 has a lot of controversial themes, such as the magypsies being gay stereotypes and the animal cruelty with the chimeras.
That's probably why they won't realese it, it's too controversial.
Guilherme the magypsies aren’t gay stereotypes, they actually represent a Japanese culture that celebrates over-the-top femininity, which is apparently too much for us sensitive baby Americans to handle

Keep in mind that the story of mother 3 was much darker in the n64 version, but changed in the final release in the gba
What was it on n64?
@@n3squ1ksarchive25 Mother 64. The original version of mother 3. Never ended up coming out though.
Nesquick If it interests you, there is some gameplay footage of the unreleased mother 64 beta floating around on TH-cam
It’s definitely a good thing that it was on the GBA instead of the N64
For those wondering about the “darker” part, one example is that based on Porky’s unused sprites in Mother 3(meaning it could have happened in the N64 version too), Porky might have died, instead of being trapped in the capsule.
Mainline Shin Megami Tensei is an amazing series with lots of overarching lore. I'd love to see it done in this artstyle.
Justin Langman Going over Shin Megami Tensei is a great idea, especially after how depressing the Mother games are. It would be a much needed source of feel good enjoyment.
I can’t wait for him to explain how Dante was hanging out with Demifiend in smt 3
the timeline of smt is crazy weird and will probably take too much work and time, here's a small example the female protagonist from "smt if" reappears in persona 1 and 2 and then i think in persona 2 an alternate universe is created in between both persona 2s (yes there are 2 persona 2s) and then the rest of the persona series happens, also smt soul hackers happens somewhere after p1 im not sure
and the male protagonist of smt if gets manga series sequel or something

I loved this so much, but you made it… sorta vague? There are so many things you could have talked about, like Lloyd’s Superman figurine, MOTHER taking place in 1988, the fact that Ninten and Ana wanted to _bang each oth_ - I mean what?, the cervix conspiracy and how Itoi debunked it, naked Ness, Mt. Itoi’s stupid difficulty, and more enlightening things about Mother 3? Like how Leder tells you EVERYTHING, the Egg being in a golem, Locria being Fassad, Salsa the monkey’s girlfriend, the aesthetically beautiful Chap. 6, and most importantly how the the O in the logo changed from the steel marble to The Blue Marble in the end. That last one meant everything.

also, great video. i've watched this a few times now, really entertaining and a good summary of the game.
Something absolutely amazing would be having a full Bayonetta series explanation. Would love that (mostly cuz i didnt understand absolutely nothing about it)
Same i played Bayonetta 1 to the end and had no fuckin idea what just happened lmao xD but i still loved it
Time travel is confusing. The end of Bayonetta 2 just turned everything upside down.🤯
@@force528 if you want to learn about the lore ask ur mum
But if you didn't understand absolutely nothing.. Then that would mean you understand absolutely something about it?
Instant age restriction tho
The text on the thumbnail makes this look like a FF7 summary.
Otterly Strange can we not talk about ff7- FFXI
Why?
Otterly Strange watch the FFXI video, and you'll understand
*IX
STOP
5:06 So Paula is Dora the Explorer? Ok.
This is the video that got me into the Mother series. Thank you!
I'm so glad!
I still got little tears in my eyes while you talked about the end of Mother 3
I finished the game for the first time in 2018 and that scene STILL GETS TO ME
So every time he pulls that thing out in Smash... *THAT'S WHAT HE'S DOING?!!?*
Yep, that animation is he pulling the dragon needles
Giygas: *[has a mother complex]*
Sephiroth: First time?
But you know what, putting by Ness and Lucas into Smash bros Ultimate Sakurai has resurrected these characters from the dead. So Ness and Lucas are back for round 2.
Wait, that ain't Miyamoto. It's Sakurai, the man who put Steve in Smash.
Steve is in smash? Oh right yeah they did that
steve jobs is relatable.
Aaaaaand Sora
@@opticbrickz9564 can't forget that

8:20 - Yeah, Mother 3 has ALOT of references to the Book of Revelation. The Happy Boxes are a clear allegory for the Mark of the Beast.
Holy cow! I never knew that. That makes a lot of sense
Speaking of...
Soon Babylon will fall.
The end is near, so repent so you may come to Zion.
You see Isaiah's prophecies being fulfilled already:
Isaiah 28:
15 Because ye have said, We have made a covenant with death, and with hell are we at agreement; when the overflowing scourge shall pass through, it shall not come unto us: for we have made lies our refuge, and under falsehood have we hid ourselves:
16 ¶ Therefore thus saith the Lord God, Behold, I lay in Zion for a foundation a stone, a tried stone, a precious corner stone, a sure foundation: he that believeth shall not make haste.
17 Judgment also will I lay to the line, and righteousness to the plummet: and the hail shall sweep away the refuge of lies, and the waters shall overflow the hiding place.
18 ¶ And your covenant with death shall be disannulled, and your agreement with hell shall not stand; when the overflowing scourge shall pass through, then ye shall be trodden down by it.
@@noskalborg723 Wow thats amazing i didn't realise that goodjob!

I failed to identify my faith in my first comment.
Noskal Borg again, nobody cares
10:08 that’s what the spider capsule in smash bro’s was?! (I was like 8 when I played it and nothing made sense and the capsule thing scared me) thinking about it I didn’t know what Pokémon was then ether but I now know that green flying snake boss was rayquaza!
7:32 ah yes
DADDER
4:44 i love how porky is just standing there.
Homestuck
It's not entirely inaccurate.
Menacingly?
Me: *Shields*
Ness: So you have chosen DEATH
*throws Mr Saturn*
I’m going through all this channels videos don’t stop making them! Also old school games like this are more interesting than new school. Back when you actually had to read to “understand” the game you were playing
I was so ignorant in my early 90s childhood that I entitle overlooked Earthbound, remembered the game yet didn't ever get to play, and Ness appearing in Super Smash Brothers sparked my interest, yet didn't get to play anything Mother or Earthbound until 2023! For real it was due to bad marketing and there had been a long term where I had no ownership of any consoles, games etc bc the Gamer market been so expensive always to where even barely having a handful of games on any console at one time
Like, at least in the GBA port of Mother 1 & Earthbound you can see Ninten’s dad at the end, but Ness’s dad is only a phone. That’s all he is. Poor ness :(
In the NES version you can see him too
(My english level sucks btw)
“As is the case with our young hero Lucas, who decides he’s done with all that sh**”
"A quirky and funny, yet depressing bizarre scientific fantasy journey with themes about mother nature vs technology, parental love and loss, coming of age and capitalism vs communism with interdimensional time and space travel" would describe the mother franchise pretty well.
Also Dancing Monkeys
4:25 Every Smash player who didn't play Mother... Earthbound.... choose whatever you want: Ah! Porky's Theme!
I remember when I first fought Claus- I was like TIME TO BEAT SOME SENSE INTO HIM, tho Lucas couldn't bring himself to attack and I was forced to watch depression
Hey wait a minute, did a Nintendo game just not have a happy ending?
I see you are a man of culture sk is a really good gameb
@@ryanred1525 indeed
That "whoops" @ 3:30 had me cracking up for some reason. Haha
Well he said "Mother 2 was already in production for the SNES And released just a few years later for the SNES"
He misspoke and meant "Mother 2 was already in production for the Super Famicom (the Japanese SNES) And released just a few years later for the SNES"
3:20 hey, Earthbound Origins are in the Nintendo Switch library now, so I can play it in its full (random encountery) glory.
I love Lucas' victory be pulling a needle
Everybody should play Mother 3.
They mostly have
It too bad, there no official English version of the game so we’re only left with a torrent of the game
Well... I never played Beginnings, and I stopped at Flopside for Earthbound... And Earthbound 2 hasn't been localized
yeah id love to BUT I CANT
Everybody should play all the games UwU
I love how flint just noclips out of his cell.
"queen mary is actually maria"

I see someone skimmed through Leder's exposition dump
Yeah I assumed the white ship was the white dragon from the church
