Skipping text in Mother 3 is like a sin.
Every single bit contains some sort of emotion.
Whether it's laughter, sadness, or whatever else characters in the game feel.
While I'm not usually the person to skip text because I feel I may lose something important information, I usually DO want to skip it. There was only one area in Mother 3 I wanted to skip the text for and that was only to get to the next part. (The Mr. Saturn thing. As awesome as they are, I was too excited to get to the next needle)
