Then cope seethe and mald when you realize you can't officially play Mother 3. SPeaking of, boy oh boy do I love the totally innocuous software called Visual Boy Advance and or Bizhawk.
I haven't played smash bros but know about lucas, first time I played I kept waiting for him cuz he didnt look like a main character, and I didn't know about ninten why would I know about the sequel main character
I love and hate how accurate the Sword of Kings grinding bit is. Who tf decided to make it drop from an enemy that never spawns again after you clear that area
"Uhm achschually in most cases PK Beam y is a better option as running from battles will decrease your overall strength and make progressing harder" 🤓🤓🤓🤓☝️☝️☝️
@@bismix4 Here's a way to make the beginning of the game much more tolerable: Before going down to Onett after you bring Pokey/Porky and Picky home, go back up the hill to visit Lier X. Agerate. Why? Because you'll encounter a few enemies going up and down the hill, giving you some experience/level ups and most importantly easy money for the equipment you can buy in Onett. Plus, seeing the Mani Mani Statue in Agerate's house is some nice foreshadowing! After visiting Agerate's house and you're going down to Onett, make sure you visit that hidden treehouse and get the Mr. Baseball cap, then go out and buy the Tee ball bat and Cheap bracelet. In my experiences, that not only made the beginning fights with Frank's gang a breeze, it also made my friends' first playthroughs much easier.
The fact that Bis didn't even comment on the sequel tease that still has yet to be fulfilled in the west truly shows how much this man loved and wanted to ride that bike.
Funny thing about the bike in the postgame; it produces a sound effect you only hear if you ride it in the swamp in Deep Darkness. Nowhere else. The bike is a big joke that way too many people don't understand.
“Ah shit, I left my Franklin Badge on Paula and she got kidnapped. Thankfully, nothing in the shopping mall will have any electrical attacks whatsoever, I’m sure of it.”
It's a universal law of video games that matter what the genre, console, or developer, there will always be that one point where you go "TIME TO ABUSE"
"Am I still playing Earthbound?" Spot on. Hilarious video as always! Look forward to a Mother 3 version if it's in the cards, or in the mix, if you will.
"(Any Earthbound Boss) isn't even that scary. . . . My entire party has been wiped." This quote explains Earthbound perfectly ALSO HAPPY BELATED BIRTHDAY BISSSSSSSSS
The “Paula got kidnapped” part got me, and I can relate to as well. I remember training her so that she learns that next PSI magic…and then she got kidnapped.
@nekomajinc335 and it's even lower when there's more than one enemy in the mix. Usually you fight a gold starman alongside other enemies, so fighting a gold one and a silver one makes it 1/256 drop
"Oh wow I got like ten levelups from Magicant Ness is a beast!" * Every normal enemy from that point on uses oneshot PK StarStorms at every turn and your new normal is constant mortal damage countdown until the last boss
I really appreciate the specificity of the reactions you have on this channel. Online people only tend to talk broad strokes about games so it was great having a visceral reaction to stuff like the complete devastation of the bike situation. And Black Entoid H gave me a good laugh (with some flashbacks).
This video inspired me to pick up Earthbound. I only through the first town on my last attempt, so seeing the relatable bits in real time has been great!
The Casey Bat is actually REALLY good.... IF you can get a sneak attack, because the auto-win system only tracks your parties basic damage stats, not your accuracy.
I’m glad you got to play one of my favorite SNES games! I grabbed it on Wii U almost a decade ago and I loved it even though it had a lot of rough edges to it. It must’ve taken enormous restraint not to make a full 3 minute waterfall joke lol. Big fan of the effort to go all the way to a beach near a road for the Dusty Dunes desert joke. Well done BisMix!
0:38 You already got me cracking up laughing. You're going to learn about that Rolling HP Meter one way or another. This is the quintessential Earthbound experience condensed into one video, excellent performance (although if you haven't played and are watching this video, I'd highly recommend playing the game anyway!) No Moonside reference/joke? I'm honestly surprised. Too easy? I'm so glad you knew about being able to ride the bike home, not many people know about that! But then again, you gotta lug that thing through the entire final stretch, where the limited inventory space is already at a premium.
I remember i once used pray in an encounter in Belch's dungeon. Everyone started crying. 1 or 2 of my party members went down, but the enemies weren't strong enough to finish us all off. I couldn't finish them off because I couldn't land an attack, and i think they might have been able to call for reinforcements. I was stuck there for maybe an hour.
Yeah... That sums it up. But even with its frustrating flaws, this is a game that is dear to my heart and thank enough for changing my life around for the better.
I should play through this game again. It really is such a funny little adventure, the battles are both good and challenging, and the music is so groovy.
At first I thought this was a lame modern review of the game. And then you proceeded to hit every nail on the head perfectly and take me back 20 years in time
I was wondering when I got the Sword of Kings. So I looked it up, and I had already saved and defeated Stonehenge. So I never got to grind 😢 Also, my most Bismix reaction while playing Earthbound was, "WHO THOUGHT EXPLODING ENEMIES WERE A GOOD IDEA?!?!?! I WANNA KNOW!!!!!"
2:29 In monster hunter 6: You know, I could walk all the way back to camp with an egg. Or I could use a Farcaster alpha! (Basically a farcaster that is way better than the original, allowing you to go back to the beginning camp while carrying delivery items in your hands.)
Yaaas King, slay! Like 40,000 of those blokes in that place for that sword. I remember grinding for that. Rock on Bismix! After you've finished the Mother series... *looks to the left* *looks to the right* *whispers* Shining Force.
While I did find you because of your FE videos, this is one of your best! I know you talked about burnout after Genealogy, but your videos are top notch no matter what game you’re playing. Keep up the good work!
I genuinely hope you get to upload more frequently soon. Your channel is incredible and exactly my kind of comedy. Next you should do FE Awakening, Echoes: SoV, Engage, or Pokemon Black/White. Love your content bro. Hope to see more soon.
I feel the monkey cave item management, i always thought that a simple solution would be after paula gets kidnapped, have that be the moment poo joins the party, especially since he doesn't use normal equipment and has more item slots, as well as a weaker but still has offensive psi attacks.
@@bezoticallyyours83 yeah, I just meant it would have helped the structure of this section, as well as making poo feel more valuable as a member besides being a jack of all trades and just feeling very okay.

@@bismix4 Don't worry, I depressed myself with that comment as well.
Counterpoint: Play Earthbound Beginnings
Play Earthbound (Unless you are sensitive to flashing lights and bright colored imagery)
Playing Smash Bros before Earthbound:
"So when does Ness get PK Starstorm"
"So when does Lucas show up"
"Why doesn't the shield absorb magic?"
"WTF IS A PK CROSS???!?!"
@@CenturyBlade I tried looking up "PK Cross" and all I saw was PK Flash.. and it didn't even contain the word "cross" on the wiki page...

@@BaconNukefavorite thing?
Lucas and Roy being in smash but Mother 3 and Binding Blade never coming west riiip
I love and hate how accurate the Sword of Kings grinding bit is. Who tf decided to make it drop from an enemy that never spawns again after you clear that area
I got to level 90 and said fuck it I'm out
I was there for multiple days
@@Sayybleit took me four playthroughs before I got my first one 😔
@@bismix4that's some FF4 DS Pink Tail level drop rate
With a 1/128 drop rate.
And said enemy often is paired with an enemy that drops Super Bombs 1/4 times.
I got it without even knowing I was grinding for it. I just thought I’d found a good XP farm
Playing Mother 1 be like:
"You know, I could endure this bullshit battle...
OR I COULD USE THE 4TH DIMENSIONAL SLIP!"
PK-beam gamma “pathetic”
"Uhm achschually in most cases PK Beam y is a better option as running from battles will decrease your overall strength and make progressing harder" 🤓🤓🤓🤓☝️☝️☝️
@@heckincat1406 uhm achschually 16 PP
reason enough to never use it
You also forgot:
"Yes! Ness learned another level of PK Healing! Does this one cure Mushrooms?"
"No it doesn't."
"🙃"
That feel when Ness misses his pops at a critical moment.
I’ve had him miss six times in a row once… Absolutely brutal.
@@bismix4 Oh no, Casey Bat PTSD
I remember having that bat all the time as a kid not really realizing it was the bulk of the problem.
@@bismix4 Here's a way to make the beginning of the game much more tolerable:

The fact that Bis didn't even comment on the sequel tease that still has yet to be fulfilled in the west truly shows how much this man loved and wanted to ride that bike.
"Ah man, we let Pokey get away! Oh well, I'm sure that won't have any negative consequences."
Just play the fan translation
Bike-chan is his true best friend after all. The best thing in the game. Everyone loves Bike-chan.
I'm never gonna get over how well you portray surprise, confusion, and indignation at the nonsense that's found in the games you cover. So funny.
"You must be tired. Mothers know these things, have some Bisquick and go to bed."
"Mom... can you just cook it instead of handing me the box?"
"It's already been two seconds, and I don't like Porky."
World record.
The perpetual question of which mole is the third strongest haunts me to this day too.
I think they all 1v1'd each other one day, and each one won twice and lost twice
@@giantclaw138Oh my god, that’s actually hilarious to think about and totally goes along with the idiosyncrasies of this game.
Funny thing about the bike in the postgame; it produces a sound effect you only hear if you ride it in the swamp in Deep Darkness. Nowhere else. The bike is a big joke that way too many people don't understand.
“Ah shit, I left my Franklin Badge on Paula and she got kidnapped. Thankfully, nothing in the shopping mall will have any electrical attacks whatsoever, I’m sure of it.”
Oh noooooooo! 😱
2:58
So relatable. Farming for poos equipement just to accidentally powerlevel and trivializing the rest of the game
It's a universal law of video games that matter what the genre, console, or developer, there will always be that one point where you go "TIME TO ABUSE"
1:31 : Ness is feeling french, he uses his croissant on the enemy
“D’accord!”
"Am I still playing Earthbound?" Spot on. Hilarious video as always!
Look forward to a Mother 3 version if it's in the cards, or in the mix, if you will.
And also a mother 1 version.
"(Any Earthbound Boss) isn't even that scary. . . . My entire party has been wiped." This quote explains Earthbound perfectly
ALSO HAPPY BELATED BIRTHDAY BISSSSSSSSS
Thank you Mamo! 🙏
I bet you popped off HARD yesterday
The “Paula got kidnapped” part got me, and I can relate to as well. I remember training her so that she learns that next PSI magic…and then she got kidnapped.
Maybe the real cookies was the friends we made along the way
The goat playing one of the best games of all time?!? LET'S GO!
I personally like to watch people play mother 2 or 3 more than play it myself
@@GwainSagaFanChannelBut this is Mother 2
Fe6 still better though.
@@CBman11037 I know its mother 2/earthbound specifically in this video but I still wanted to say it about both games
@@GwainSagaFanChannel join the club
Everytime Trent popped Up i couldn't help but laugh , All the Grinding was spot on. Also Riding the Bike was definitely hype
Poo having only a single weapon that he can equip with a droprate of 1 in 128 is one of the most aggravating expieriences in any rpg ever
TBF he doesn't need the King set, it's just for completionists' state of mental trauma. *sighs in Jeff cookie challenge*
@@devinbuettgenbach2941*sighs in grinding the sharks to buy that house before Giant Step*
In all fairness though, you can do just fine by only ever using magic with Poo, it's not even like he's gonna outshine Ness in physical
1 in 128 is not even a one percent drop rate.
@nekomajinc335 and it's even lower when there's more than one enemy in the mix. Usually you fight a gold starman alongside other enemies, so fighting a gold one and a silver one makes it 1/256 drop
"DUNGEON MAN!" Honestly one of the best npcs. Despite the world slipping to Gigyas influence he actually achieved his dream.
"am i still playing earthbound?"
Man i had to clean my glasses and look at it again to see that im not fighting an abomination. Still got me
Jeff really was out there like “I cast gun” :D
When the world needed him the most, he returned with another banger video
Oh wow. Never thought bis will do something like Earthbound, but it's amazing
"Why are you hoarding Cookies? Go find Picky already!"
"It's part of the plan."
"WHAT PLAN!"
"To not be forced to hold a Sound Stone."
That waterfall got me brushing mt dew out of my nose
There is not enough people talking about the homesick bit. Ness seems to get homesick at genuinely the most inconvenient times known to man.
Calls mom just before dungeon. 5 minutes of grinding...starts to miss...wth??
"Oh wow I got like ten levelups from Magicant Ness is a beast!"
* Every normal enemy from that point on uses oneshot PK StarStorms at every turn and your new normal is constant mortal damage countdown until the last boss
"Managing my items in the monkey cave is so much fun"
...I can relate to that.
I really appreciate the specificity of the reactions you have on this channel. Online people only tend to talk broad strokes about games so it was great having a visceral reaction to stuff like the complete devastation of the bike situation.

Yea this was pretty much everything I was thinking and feeling when I first played the game 💀
One of the best overall experiences I’ve had in a video game for sure!
This Video Format is Goated, its the right mix of "if u know u know" humor and general funny.
Every time a new I Tried episode comes out and it’s a game I’ve never played, I play it. So far it’s only been 9 games.
My man didn't call home once. Ness' dad must be worried sick!
"Remember when Ness hit something" I see you fell for the Casey Bat as well
Even without it I swear I have a clip of missing six times in a row
@@bismix4
Did you, by any chance, equip a slingshot?
The Casey Bat is actually REALLY good.... IF you can get a sneak attack, because the auto-win system only tracks your parties basic damage stats, not your accuracy.
LETS FUCKING GOOOOOO NEW BISMIX UPLOOOOOAD!!!!!
Me and the boys waiting for the Mother 1 and Mother 3 skits:
1:35 "Ness, DON'T FEED HIM A CROISSANT WHAT THE FU-"
Best Line
I’m glad you got to play one of my favorite SNES games! I grabbed it on Wii U almost a decade ago and I loved it even though it had a lot of rough edges to it. It must’ve taken enormous restraint not to make a full 3 minute waterfall joke lol. Big fan of the effort to go all the way to a beach near a road for the Dusty Dunes desert joke. Well done BisMix!
Thanks TyGuy! The beach scene was tough because we had to wait 15 minutes to get a shot with no people lol
Only thing missing was a vibe session for the Saturn coffee trip lmao. Great video as always though, Bis! Love to see ya branching out!
I could fight this boss...
OR I COULD USE THE MULTI-BOTTLE ROCKET!

Pity the rolling counter was never picked up by other rpgs. It's genius.
"I GET TO RIDE MY BIKE WOOOOOOO!!"
I cant stop rewatching that part I love it so much
Whenever i need to wait at the waterfall, i'll watch this legendary video.
I remember i once used pray in an encounter in Belch's dungeon. Everyone started crying. 1 or 2 of my party members went down, but the enemies weren't strong enough to finish us all off. I couldn't finish them off because I couldn't land an attack, and i think they might have been able to call for reinforcements. I was stuck there for maybe an hour.
This feels like a Scott the woz video but just all of the gags. I love it.
Yeah... That sums it up.
But even with its frustrating flaws, this is a game that is dear to my heart and thank enough for changing my life around for the better.
Top five games for me
the real reward for beating earthbound is riding the bike again.
PK Bisquick is OP
Great video as always
Looking forward to "So I tried Mother 3"
It’s 100% going down
the inventory bits are so real. i hate earthbound's item system so much 😭
Happy birthday ! Nice to see an EarthBound video, I was waiting for that PK Teleport joke at 2:31.
BISMIX PLAYING ONE OF MY FAVORITE GAMES YAAAAY
The recent direct didn’t give me any earthbound but you did, so I’ll gladly take it
I should play through this game again. It really is such a funny little adventure, the battles are both good and challenging, and the music is so groovy.
Another banger vid, now to play earthbound and then rewatch this to really understand the jokes
At first I thought this was a lame modern review of the game. And then you proceeded to hit every nail on the head perfectly and take me back 20 years in time
Thank you! I’m glad you enjoyed it! 😄
@@bismix4 honestly, thank you! 😅
I have never played Earthbound and I fricken love this video.
Highly recommend checking the game out!
I was wondering when I got the Sword of Kings. So I looked it up, and I had already saved and defeated Stonehenge. So I never got to grind 😢
Also, my most Bismix reaction while playing Earthbound was, "WHO THOUGHT EXPLODING ENEMIES WERE A GOOD IDEA?!?!?! I WANNA KNOW!!!!!"
These videos are always a highlight to my day
True facts about needing Paula's freeze. I'm always like "Why couldn't they have taken Jeff?"
2:29
In monster hunter 6: You know, I could walk all the way back to camp with an egg. Or I could use a Farcaster alpha! (Basically a farcaster that is way better than the original, allowing you to go back to the beginning camp while carrying delivery items in your hands.)
Oh so you can avoid fighting an enemy at the museum if you're really fast? I'm sure that won't have any consequences in the ending.
Yaaas King, slay! Like 40,000 of those blokes in that place for that sword. I remember grinding for that.
