How would you know if you haven't played the game? This is bordering on trolling, and eventually I'm going to have to treat it as such.
I saw a video on it called Disturbing Video Game music... all I know about Earthbound is the final boss and whatever the Smash games talk about it. Not everybody is going to be a Nintendo wizard of knowledge, you know.

Enough GoldenYu... anyways, have you seriously SEEN the game? Probably not, because you're you, aren't you, but from what I seen in the Virtual Console trailer, all you do is fight dogs and rats, giant piles of puke, and play as children going around to different neighborhoods. HOW is that empowering to someone playing a video game? Mario and Zelda EMPOWER you... this does not. It's too decidedly average. But of course, because you get butt-hurt over ANYTHING I say... I'll just stop here.

Play it yourself?

Well then you obviously shouldn't make claims you can't substantiate. It's fine if you don't know everything, just don't act like you do.

The Mother series is one of the most mature franchises Nintendo has. You only have to PLAY Eathbound for an hour or so to see that.

Also, and I'm asking a series question here. Wasn't Ness only considered for the Brawl drop by some because he was a starter in Melee and he was unlockable in Brawl? I thought people were worried because he hadn't be announced going into Brawl and he had been going into Melee.

Edit: and I forgot to say, also because Lucas had been announced before release, some thought as a replacement.

Try out any Sony Playstation 1/2/3/(4 soon) game, for one. God of War, Call of Duty, Grand Theft Auto, Uncharted, Final Fantasy, Sly Cooper, Ratchet and Crank...
I'v played both Sly Cooper and Ratchet and Clank, while neither exactly fall under the role of a kids game exactly they are much more light-hearted then Mother/EB and more close to being kids games then Mother/EB. lol

Nintendo.com Earthbound sales pitch said:
Bizarre aliens roam the Earth! Can four average kids save the world from certain destruction?
Intergalactic terror strikes the small town of Onett as a blazing extraterrestrial object crashes in the night! The Earth now faces imminent destruction by the universal evil threat, Giygas. A courageous boy named Ness and his three friends vow to save the planet from hideous destruction. Battle hundreds of off-the-wall monsters, roaming dinosaurs, and alien enemies. Explore exotic locations like Saturn Valley, Dusty Dunes Desert, and Deep Darkness. The ultimate test lies in the impending encounter with the all-powerful Giygas!
If "the earth now faces imminent destruction by the universal evil threat" means "all you do is fight dogs and rats, giant piles of puke, and play as children going around to different neighborhoods" to you, I think you might want to either do a little more research on Earthbound or just stop fighting a battle you're losing.

Don't even get me started on Mother 3...

Well, spoilers, since you clearly aren't going to play the game anyway, DD...

Lucas' mother dies during the first chapter of the game because she gets stabbed in the heart by a giant dinosaur thing's claw, his dad finds out, goes on a depressive rampage in a fit of rage, incapacitating a few passersby, and is thrown in jail, as his son watches, traumatized. Lucas' brother goes missing, and is found in a canyon later, thought to be dead. More depression ensues. Then there's a tyrannical dictator, Porky, who builds his own "utopian" society not that far off from being compared to the Nazi rule of Germany during WWII. And his greatest general that Lucas must face? His own brother, who was cybernetically brought back to life to be a killing machine. Lucas has to kill his own brother, or else he will be killed by him. And you know what? He chooses not to. Then Claus tries to kill him by shooting a gigantic bolt of lightning at Lucas, which gets reflected back at him due to Lucas' Franklin Badge. He killed himself. And then as Lucas is holding his dying brother, he dies in his arms, for God's sake. And then the world pretty much blows up.

You know, for kids.

Can we just petition to get Divine banned already there's no way this guy is for real
Wow... well, there goes freedom of speech in these forums. Seriously, why can't I have my own opinions? Seriously? Is that a crime? To have opinions different from yours? I only stated an onion, and because of my reputation for opinions not shared by everybody, everybody jumped on me, because they always do. For everything I say. Everything.

So anybody who plays Playstation games is a troll? I didn't know I was only allowed to play Nintendo games in these forums. Thanks for the knowledge.

I love how often the "I have freedom of speech" card is played when most of the time those people don't realize that there's no such thing as freedom of speech without punishment.

You wanna throw out slurs about sexual orientation? You're going to be treated like a homophobe. You wanna insult a game you know nothing about? You're going to be treated like an idiot.
I just want to say that 90% of you are suckers.
I'm fully aware of this.

Yet I can't stop.

It's so much fun.

Magnes. Please help me.

I can't get enough of the double D.

Dear god, when you didn't think he could get any worse, he's on of the YouTube fanboys who thinks violence, blood, and cursing makes an adult game.
Also, EarthBound is rated T, definitely cuz it's a kids game.

Just remember, every time you claim you have freedom of speech to defend something you say to people in public, they have their right to bear arms. ;)

You clearly didn't read. I said PKMN Trainer would get cut ONLY if the severe technical limitations of the 3DS force his removal. Don't blame me, blame the 3DS. Even then, I consider him mainly a lock, unless the 3DS is a *****.

Oh do pray tell what technical limitations might affect Pokemon Trainer and not, say... Zelda/Sheik? Or Samus/ZeroSuitSamus?

Lovely how you ignore that first segment entirely.

And my point is that you believe that a game is kiddy if it doesn't reach the same level of "maturity" as games like GTA and Call of Duty. You're either a hypocrite for bringing that up in a forum about a Nintendo game or a troll for going that far to invoke a reaction out of others using the whole "gun games master race earthbound dirty peasants" bit.

Its not because you're you.

You have no knowledge of what you talk about and strike down frnachises. Its fine if you say "I don't like the franchise that much" or something. Saying its a kids game bashes and lashes out at everyone who enjoys the game.

I never got into EB myself, but I've read and enjoyed the story. Its very beautiful and touching. And certainly not childish.

I already put out a sign that said "don't feed" but no one listened to me. :p

Some of us don't have the glorious option of ignoring. Why the rest of you aren't doing such is beyond me though.
You must all be masochists or something. :laugh:

How dare you judge a game you NEVER played. Mother is my favorite and seeing a guy who NEVER knows what he's talking about, dissing a game he's NEVER played and knows little to NOTHING about is just stupid. I played the game and you judged a trailer, WHO'S WORD IS MORE RELIABLE!

You are a troll, now leave.

Because you CAN'T have an opinion on something you know nothing about. Our opinions are better than yours because we know about EarthBound more than you do.

THAT'S IT, I'M DONE WITH EVERYBODY, I'M DONE!!!

You know what, I'm done. I'm done for this discussion for at least a week or two, MAYBE A MONTH EVEN, because quite frankly, I'm tired of everybody ganging up on me. I'm going to explore other areas of this site, but for right now, I'm just sick and tired of this witch hunt. I'm just sick and tired for being burned at the stake. I can't have opinions about anything, quite clearly, on this discussion, no matter what. Fine then. I'm leaving elsewhere in the forums, so my intellectual talents can be better served with other people who appreciate DIFFERENT OPINIONS, and RESPECT ME for who I am. It's also amazing how CalumG, Hotfeet4444, and Habanero can GET AWAY with doing EXACTLY what I do (apparently)...

You know, maybe I shouldn't have been so blunt in my controversial opinions, and maybe I shouldn't have been so confrontational to everybody. But it's too late. I'm leaving this discussion for a while, and I mean it. Have a celebration. Throw a party. I don't care.

Goodbye.

Please don't go onto the Wii U discussion. Not only is it my place of comfort and safety, if you think people wont respect you on here, you have no idea what will come to you on there.
