Mother 3 won't get localised because that'd go against it's anti-capitalist message.
The fact that it was produced, marketed, and sold by a private company in any capacity already makes it a capitalist product. Translating it to a different language is just exporting it.

Were those people coming for Mother 3, or Etika/Vinny?

I misspoke, but my point still stands.

There have been big JRPGs in the past that have done little to nothing for the popularity of the genre (Pokémon, Final Fantasy VII, Final Fantasy X to name a few), Persona 5 and Dragon Quest XI were big popular releases last year, but it remains to be seen if this will have an effect on the genre as a whole.
I mean, haven't we seen the effect already?

The most recent Direct was like half JRPG. Nintendo chose to announce Joker first for the Fighters Pass to generate hype. Fire Emblem has hit an all-time high in the last five years due to finally becoming popular in the West. Final Fantasy XV sold over eight million copies after FFXIII sold seven million. The Bravely games, the Dragon Quest renaissance, Tales, Valkyria, Xenoblade, Nier Automata, all the Legend of Heroes games, Octopath Traveler, ****ing Monster Hunter World, which became the best selling game in Capcom's long history in only a couple months. They're all selling and they're making more because of it.

I'm just not sure what "effect to be seen" you're waiting on here. We're in the middle of a JRPG renaissance. And this is coming from a guy that's not even all that into them. I'm just speaking on clear and obvious industry trends.

Never thought of it like that honestly! Heh, in a way, Porky resembles a younger Donald Trump quite well. :laugh:

I need to play Mother 3 again.

Also, I think the whole Lucas learning PSI by the Magspies through "****" is also a thing that hinders Mother 3's localisation. :ultlucas:

I don’t get why people are so desperate for a Mother 3 localization. Isn’t the fan translation near perfect and “professional”? Like, emulation isn’t all that legal but it’s not like you’ll ever be caught/punished. Plus, I don’t feel any moral ramifications for emulating a GBA game that doesn’t have any official way to be purchased so that the developers can be compensated. If the game ever does get re-released, just buy it then and it’s a win for everybody.
I think it's as simple as most people wanting to both enjoy it "legit" and support the hard work the original devs put into the game.

All love to the translators of course, but I'm doubtful that their work ended up being of monetary benefit to Nintendo, despite their well-placed wishes and intentions.

Care to check that again? Seems as if Vinny got more numbers when they got archived on the Full Sauce channel.

Part 1: 180K
Part 2: 114K
Part 3: 95K
Part 4: 89K
Part 5: 76K
Part 6: 77K
Part 7: 54K
Part 8: 51K
Part 9: 41K
Part 10: 48K
Part 11: 70K
Didn't know that 180k was more than 506k.

You never know. Apparently there are people who believe that Snake and Sonic in Brawl tainted the "purity" of Super Smash. People will believe and say some goofy things.
I am such a guy. I honestly... just didn't want Sonic in. But I've warmed up to 3rd party characters a little over time. Still, I would take them all out in exchange for more Nintendo-owned character any day of the week.

Oh yeah, just like every form of entertainment.
How silly of me.
*All forms of entertainment except those tainted by le evil SJWs
I don't think I am, considering how much of a reach Vinesauce as a whole have had on the internet.
...
If I am, then I guess things like 7 Grand Dad and corruptions aren't popular, then.
Literally what are you talking about
You've been completely missing the point of how the combination of both a pretty big name around the content creating game, their community and all the other variables with Mother 3 sent the message out more. And to prove my point further...
15k people watch a stream and suddenly that's enough to turn a niche game that most of its fans have already played anyways into a million seller. Sure.

We abridge Gundam Wing. I'm the head writer/director, sole producer/sound editor and I voice Wufei. We're six episodes in.

There's a nameless side character who was drawn with a Donkey Kong-esque mouth and we decided to have him voiced by nothing but DK64 clips, and it's been a running joke for two episodes. He's gonna briefly show up in ep.7 too but I've had difficulty fighting through this one. I keep changing the script.

Ok, hold the phone.

Did that woman just push some dude off a plane, then shoot him in the head in midair?

Now I'm incredibly curious as to what the context of this is in the original show.

You read my mind, that is what I was literally going to say to everyone.
I barely know any Japanese. Do you know Japanese?

This is honestly one of my favorite sets for Ultimate right now

Just the sheer disrespect emanating from the matches is a sight to behold
to think Bayonetta would actually be fun to watch in Smash Ultimate after her reign in Smash 4
Since I got pranked that means I'm a chad now, see you gamer virgins later
As a former member of the pranked club...and current member of the Hall of Pranked...welcome

Remember when you mistook T's Link for Toon Link? This is the guy, and he's basically my favorite player. Plays like a god when he has the advantage. And Japanese tourneys always have crazy good chharacter diversity.
Japanese tourneys are honestly better than US tourneys when it comes to diversity (they love using more of the high-low tier characters than top tiers), though it’s in reverse when it comes to hype (idk, something about some of the top tier characters like Peach/Daisy being hype worthy)...if only we can have both at the same time
**** OFF SHE'S MINE.
No...Lucina is yours
:ultcloud:, :ultlink: and :ultpit: have all worked as actual bodyguards.

I'd hazard a guess that :ultsamus: has had a few bodyguard gigs early in her career. Possibly :ultsnake: as well.

:ultmario: is the worst bodyguard, since he lets you get in danger and then rescues you.
Hell, :ultpit: is still a bodyguard for :ultpalutena:


They've got this.
Aw Yeah

In the past I could agree with this, except now the means in which I would acquire a rom of Mother 3 have been left in a smouldering crater.

I still think about you, Emuparadise.

Bird lives matter.
I accidently convinced everyone to release their inner bird powers.
I am a phoenix, but I'll probably never be able to visit the penguins in Antarctica.
