    Twitter translation: Happy new year!
    2024 marks the 30th anniversary of the release of MOTHER2.
    We are preparing various plans, so
    Let’s enjoy this year together.
    Nice to meet you!

    Imagine Earthbound in 2D HD or a trilogy remaster

    I hope this means something, but maybe he’s just excited about the 30th anniversary, that isn’t too weird

  4. MalicCarnage

    Earthbound 6 confirmed right here guys! 100% guaranteed!

    I’m anticipating more of the new Earthbound merchandise that recently dropped in the Hobonichi store.

    Probably a live performance along with a panel discussion and QA, which sounds interesting.

    Though it’s probably unlikely, it would be nice to see a Switch remake along the lines of the previous year’s Super Mario RPG.

    If it’s Itoi’s company they probably just have some new merch plans to celebrate. I wouldn’t expect any remakes or anything.

  8. bryanglican

    It’s just gonna be a new line of stationery or something like that, I can almost guarantee it.

  9. Please remake it in Super Mario RPG or Link’s Awakening’s style

  10. YamadaDesigns

    Itoi’s company must be one of the most pointless ones in existance. What do they even do?

  11. CantWashABaby

    “We’re getting a bunch of wildly expensive goods to sell online and at pop up shops in Ikebukuro. We’ll make exactly one Paula’s teddy bear, sell it for 100,000¥ and someone will fence it for twice that on Yahoo Auctions. Thank you for giving us money based on hope.”

    I would love to be wrong, but Itoi seems like he’s all about the merchandising nowadays. I sincerely doubt any remaster, port or sequel is being considered.

  12. blueblurspeedspin

    Earthbound redone like Link’s awakening would be insanely fun to play through.

    # Earthbound: Lucas’ Lament

    Now that I have your attention, this is what I think the Mother 3 remake will be called.

  14. ManagerThin8073

    Mother trilogy and Mother 4 5 6 on switch 2 confirmed

  15. Everyone here calling for a remake. That would be cool, but I want a new game in the series.

  16. spacehog1985

    Don’t do that. Don’t give me hope.

  17. Dream: A sequel
    Expectation: A HD remake
    Reality: A vinyl

  18. Rex_T360

    At this point, I think a full remake of Earthbound or even a completely new game is more likely than a basic Mother 3 translation ever being released officially.

    As a fan of Earthbound who hasn’t played the fan translation of Mother 3 yet, I’d love to see any of those happen, but it’s kind of funny that the most requested and probably easiest option for Nintendo of just putting an official translation of Mother 3 on NSO might be the least likely.

    since its hobonichi (itoi company) tweeting, expect just merch and similar things. as usual, the ip co-owned between nintendo and other party have them doing merch instead of nintendo, thats how it goes and why you usually see only nintendo 100% owned series in their stores.

  20. Slammybradberrys

    It’s gonna be Robot Chicken Reggie lighting another audience member in fire for asking about dead franchises again
