I'm really looking forward to them!
Well, on with the fanthoughts.

If released on the Game Boy Advance, it would be refreshing to see the Mother series
remain in its sprite origin.
By using the extended capabilities of the Advance to create games at least
EarthBound's length, which I'm sure is possible, it's entirely likely that
Nintendo could create a game longer than EarthBound, which would be a
pleasant surprise, as EarthBound relied very little on graphics... it dedicated
much of its memory to plot and gameplay.
Just to see Mother 3 with increased gameplay -- even though its graphics might make
it the latter-day version of its pariah prequel, EarthBound -- would be simply wonderful.

I would PREFER Mother 3 to come out for GBA, rather than GameCube, because EarthBound would
be awesome to be portable! A re-release of EarthBound for Game Boy Advance
would be welcome to me, also. But if Mother 3 came out on GBA, they could
still have much improved graphics due to the fact that GBA supports 32-bit graphic
acceleration, like the PlayStation, twice the power of an SNES.
To me, the lethal combination for a blockbuster Mother 3 would be:
*A good plot WITH the original characters (not some old cowboy and his dumb dog)
*Same graphics, but improved 3-D art, etc. during battles
and
*The same funkiness that made us all love Mother 2.

Down with Gamecube
|

|

Thinking about what system I want Mother 3 to be released on took a lot of consideration.
Gamecube (Bad name) would be good for Mother 3 if it had 3D images and additional
information like cameos and stuff like that. Then again, they would probably be
so consumed by that and make a horrible plot like PSX RPGs. No offense to PSX owners.
Gameboy Advance would be really sweet, because it is an 'offspring' of the SNES
(Hopefully, it will have really good RPGs like the SNES), one of the best system
Nintendo has ever made. Then again, we won't see 3D graphics. But I'm not disappointed.
I enjoy seeing the sprite graphic because I love the look of it. That way, it'll make
people that are obsessed about graphic stay away from the game and make the true RPGers come forth and
play it. If Mother 3 has a funky background like Mother 2/EarthBound, then I love it!
In other words, I think Gameboy Advance is a great system to put Mother 3 on.
Maybe they should put in Mother 1/2 into one cartridge for Gameboy Advance? That
would be sweet also.
Down with Gamecube, up with Gameboy Advance! We need a N64 version of the Super
Gameboy, so we can play GBC and GBA games on it. Don't you think so?

Since I'm CursedBurger, you MAY expect me to say something unintelligible. But you'd be wrong.
Or would you?...
Well, my opinions are, if somebody cares, that sprite graphics ARE really cool, cuz if the
graphics are simple, it won't end up with stuff you can't see or bad angles and stuff. (Ex: I
think Breath of Fire 4 has really annoying graphics with all the turning and stuff.)
So, yeah. Whatever.

Mmm... GBA tastiness.

Mother 3 on the game boy advance? what are they thinking? i guess its not all bad. if the
game boy crowd can handle a good deep rpg, then it'll sell lots. i just hope that it will
be long like mother 2.
I'd think that it won't get enough praise if it would be made on the game boy rather than the game cube.

Mother 3 on GBA?! Well, I'd have to say I'd be very happy if Mother 3 came out on ANY format
and on ANY system! I just totally dig Flint, Ryukka and Krause, the cool hovercraft, the
crying robot-croc, the 2-headed kraken, DCMC... WOW! But we're here to talk about Game Boy
Advance, aren't we? ^_^ Well, I'd have to say that I'd much rather have them easilly cart over
Mother 2! Wee, that'd be fun. Maybe with some new and tricky things in it, too (like Super
Mario Bros. DX on GBC)! OKAY!
OKAY! Mother 3! ^o^ Hehah. Well, a 3D Mother DID sound pretty awesome, but (again) remember
that the M3 developing team DID say that they had extensive troubles in creating a nice 3D
engine, and that THAT was one of the main reasons they gave up on the game. Thus, 2D is our
only option for a Mother 3 on Game Boy Advance. (Besides, I don't even think the system can
handle 3D games like that.) So, as I said on the last topic (on GameCube porting), any way
things turn out, we will have to expect them to take their time, and the EarthBound community
will be told, once again, to wait. Do-harken, I must be hindered a pirate! ^_^

I have ALWAYS been a fan of the Mother series and whether it comes out on GBA or Game Cube, I
could seriously CARELESS! The bottom line is that all this time Nintendo has been planning a
sequel. It is NOT fair for them to cancel the game. even though Nintendo 64 is obviously
chicken fodder compared to Playstation 2, I have yet to see a decent rpg on the system. It is
really hard to say whether or not mother 3 would sell like 'pancakes' (especially since the
system is in its dying days), but I DO know that nintendo owes it to their patrons and people
who dished out close to three-hundred bucks a decent rpg. To top that off, is it fair to all
the mother patrons out there to just cancel the game (espcecially when nintendo themselves
threw hints out even in the 1995 earthbound that there WOULD be a sequel)? First nintendo
delays the game for well over three years and now they just decide to dump it? Whether or not
this baby sees the light of day, nintendo needs to get smart and realize that the next mother
game could be their big breakthrough. I've been a fan of the company for years and if they
want to be top of the industry, i'm confident that another 'mother' could help them get there.
If nintendo is going to release trashy flops like virtual boy, would it really hurt to just
complete a game that is already playable? I think not. Please email me, mother fans!
