<p align="center">Today’s update also including music from Mother 3. This music plays normally when you encounter the Porkey’s (better known as King Pig in Mother 3) private army, the Pigmasks. <!--more-->Sakurai doesn’t say much else on Porkey, but with the help of a few members some interesting information has been brought to light. Apparently Porkey was originally from the first Earthbound game under the name Pokey. His childish nature carried with him through time travel and led him to the creation of the chimeras which are riddled within the city. His statue can be seen all over the original map in the game as well as other references from his original appearance in Earthbound.</p>

first post?...
Anyway, I like the tune.
It's some good music and I can see it fitting the stage perfectly.
Haven't played Mother 3 though so wouldn't know how it compares to the original tune, but I like it nonetheless.

I'd have to say that this is my least favorite song on the dojo so far. Maybe I'd like it better if i played Mother 3 first and the music had nostalgia for it.

Edit:
@Misto, Is "Porkey" how fans translated it or is it just a mispelling. Should we use Porky since Sakurai (or Nate i guess) spelled it that way and we have no Official name, kind of like Stafy?

Earthbound is the game with ness, it is the english localization of Mother 2.

This music is from Mother 3 where Lucas was the star.

I am really confused by your grammar.

Edit: Okay so are you trying to say that you laugh at us and we are weird if we have never played Earthbound (which i haven't) when you never heard of Earthbound until melee, didn't know only one game is called Earthbound, and that you couldn't tell that music based on Porky's pig army isn't from Mother 2? Have you played Earthbound?

If the above isn't what you are saying then i apoligize but you are not speaking very clear for me.

This music sounds way to midi-ish. I hope the final version in the game will be orchestrated.

You made a topic about this, YAY!

Porky rocks!

The reason why I like Porky, even though I never played Mother 3 is because he's Pokey Minch from EarthBound!

Too bad they completely ripped the music from the MOTHER3i album. Hopefully this is evidence that they'll eventually do some kind of remix, I'll be disappointed if they keep the straight album rip in the final version of Brawl.

I had a hard time liking this song when I first heard it in Mother 3, but I eventually liked it and now that it's in Brawl I'm totally pumped to play Brawl and hear this song while battling!

isnt this also a reference to the army?

Actually that was a mistake on my part, I copied something from another article I was doing and I didn't realize it until after someone asked about Fox being in this article. Sorry guys. I've put up the other picture of New pork City like I meant to.

I hope this makes Claus more likely, because this is the music that plays when he appears. Or at least that's what I heard.

I think a 2nd Mother rep is very plausible. There should be two reps for everything at this point. If this game is as big as it is supposed to be there is no excuse not to.
