Nintendo Force features famous gaming brothers this month (in honor of M&L:Brothership)

I swear they have a Mother/EB reference in almost every issue

May have found a glorious opportunity, don't know if it's real.

I've wanted to try out a game from the mother series for a long time now, and I haven't saw a good opportunity, until now. I saw this on Walmart just now while randomly searching up for places to buy Mother 3, and I'm seriously wondering if this is real or not. The screenshots look good, the brand behind it looks reliable, and the price is a total steal. Do y'all think this is real, or is it too good to be true?

Anyone else ever catch this?

That the default character names in

EarthBound Zero and Earthbound are:

Ninten (Earthbound Zero NES)

Ness (EarthBound for Super Nintendo)

Ninten as in short for "Ninten"do

And Ness rearranged is SNES as in Super Nintendo Entertainment System

WHYYY????

My brothers and I got an emulator, okay? I start looking through the catalog, it doesn't have Earth Bound but it does have the prototype for the NES? I wanted to play the original (I posted general discussion because there is no "Other" category)

Summary please

I love my best friend and I wanted to learn about Earthbound for her. I read a summary, but it seems confusing to me and I feel like game 2 doesn't connect to game 3 at all. Can you guys just give me the main points please, and try not to mix in some unrelated stuff? I tried to watch a video too but it was like 30 minutes long and the guys voice was annoying. Anyway, thank you!! Hope to learn more because its one of her biggest obsessions

For earthbound it was ethan(ness) dana(paula) steve(jeff) chad(poo)

Wanting to start mother 3 soon. Will I need to use a guide?

I just finished mother 1 which I had to use the guide a lot for because I got lost on where to go so often. I had to use it a bit with earthbound as well. I was wondering if mother 3 is easy to get lost in too. Should I try to stay away from guides as much as possible?

[META] Can we please just insta-ban anyone who tries to post weird sexual shit on this sub?

"Would you smash Venus?"

"How many girls has Ness pulled?"

Like stfu. Nobody here wants to hear how badly you want to have sex with a collection of pixels and nobody over the age of 14 is wondering how many girls a 13-year-old dated. Shipping stuff is fine as long as it's non-sexual but please stop with this crap.

Should Mother 3 be rated "M"?

Hello everyone, I have the next question: a few weeks ago I was talking to my brother about Mother 3 and that it has not been released in the West to this day because of how controversial it is. In that conversation I told him that in my opinion this game should be rated "M" if it is released in the West and without any kind of censorship. So my question is, what do you think about that? Sorry my english, I'm from Chile.

Edit: Thank you all for your answers, I must admit that I was exaggerating with the classification and that my brother was right... thanks

"2 blondes, 1 friendship"

It's a quirky AU, where Flint dies by accident, and Lucas gets adopted by Porky. And their relationship grow from enemies to neutral to friendship. And yes, they play together. What's so bad in it?

Ness' fate in my dark AU "The Void Boy"

In this AU, Ness gets abducted and used as a lab rat for four years. Then he gets kicked out of the lab, because of his ruined physical and mental health, and after hearing the news that his mom died, embraces the void in his heart, hence the title, and becomes almighty, with no empathy or compassion to others. He causes chaos in the Onett square and teleports himself home and creates illusions that he's just a kid, surrounded by those who love him.
