M3 Hacking Progress

[earthboundfan15]

If it wasn't for piracy i would get ROM of this game, patch it and play this, but I can't. :-(

[Barschdoor]

What's this shit?

If you wanna see real hackers at work and hacking into e-mail / myspace / facebook accounts,

I suggest you pay a visit to hackingservices (.) org

[brianimy]

@Barschdoor Erm... This hack is already done, idiot.

[UltiMario1337]

ROFLMFAO AT 4:10 "Flint has 1 nut(s)"

[cheesewheel]

HAHAHAHA

[UltiMario1337]

"Lighter's Aries Bracelet" lol

[Sasukeuchihahaha]

Lighters Aries Bracelet. Yeah... its a nice thing stuff like that was fixed. i love (not literal) you guys for translating Mother 3.

[54spiritedwill54]

Thanks for doing this, translating an entire RPG game must not be easy!

[bok1bok3]

What's the MOTHER 3 Secret? D:

[BanjoSwopooie]

Great games taste purple.

[John7Chris]

*faux Brit accent*

My dear friend, you are sorely mistaken. It is obvious that great games actually taste blue. If your tongue can't bring up the insignificant saliva required to taste the awesomeness of great games correctly, then surely you need a replacement! (:P)

[Marioparty10]

Blue Blue!

[khianidude]

I smell a Happy Happyist Reference?

[Marioparty10]

Not just any Happy Happyist reference. It's a blue one. :P

[Asbduhas]

AT 6:56 what is the name of that song!

[bmxzebra]

Run, my Dog! if you havent already found out. i think you can download it from starmen now under mother 3 downloads it says it has all the songs from this video but i havent tried

[Millhouse013]

DAKOTA?!

no, wait, I'm just spouting nonsense...

BOinG!

[Catherinwonderland]

Can't wait to play this! Seriously i'm sooo happy that people like you make that job :)

[flaksucks]

All hail Bob Dole, the unanimous god of the MOTHER3 universe.

[pinksorbet1]

o.o The people working on this deserve a cookie! I wub you guys x3

[JoeWuzHere]

they can have the giygas cookie

[cubeface21]

Good job, pleeeaaassse come out at least, at LEAST 2010.. please?

[pinksorbet1]

O_O 2010??

[cubeface21]

Yeah 2 years

[flaksucks]

Because 1 month's worth of hacking and 35-hour playthroughs on flash carts obviously would take a full year of work.

[JTNickelz]

All that's left is changing some Japanese words that you hear (yes, HEAR) in the game into english words. And then they have to test it on a few emulators. No way that will take two years unless they are slacking. Which I hope they're not, cuz I DON'T HAVE THAT KINDA PATIENCE! C'mon, Starmen, you can do it!

[Enigma14]

The song playing at the naming screen sounds like one of the songs in brawl.

Specifically when you meet the Ice Climbers in SSE.

[Darkokirby]

To the right at 0:48. is that venus?

[charizaro2]

Looks great so far guys! Finally, MOTHER fans everywhere will be able to experience this greatness.

[cmdood92]

............. its actually happening?

how do we play it? with visual boy advance?

[Crashbolt17]

yep

[therealzagaudio]

I CANT WAIT UNTILL THE M#EP IS DONE!

[StarmanPhantom]

Hey starmannet, do you know any sites that have the complete english patch? And how do you install it?

[GhostSonic]

It's not finished yet.

[StarmanPhantom]

To GhostSonic:

Do you know when?

[Spootman1]

This might sound nooby but how do you use the patch to translate the game?

[Crashbolt17]

u get a patching program and patch the patch to the rom. sounds complicated but its very easy

[Shadowdeath123]

how does this work?

[zapdragon2]

Great work guys, I cant wait to finaly play it. We have all waited so long.

[Onthenet9999]

What songs are playing in the video? I need to know :)

Definitely looking forward to the completion of this. I've played through the Japanese version several times and I'm willing to play several more times just to see what all the NPCs say and to get more out of the story.

[Friendtohelp]

i have to say this is a good job guys, you and the ppl that are doing jump superstars are excellent! :D

[PipoStan]

Silly animal text! ~POKEY STATUE

[CrazedSquirrel]

Thank you guys for doing this, translating an entire RPG game must not be easy!

[CalmMist]

Although I haven't played Earthbound before, this video has got me hooked now. ;p Good luck with your project and I hope you guys get all of the kinks out. Nin.'s silly for not translating this game. *giggle*

[OmegaPrimePhazon]

Oh, can I ask another question? Can I play this game on my DS?

[starmennet]

You'd need to get a flash cart/card, but yes, probably.

[OmegaPrimePhazon]

Okay. Do you know where to buy one?

[err1112]

WTF IS THAT AND HOW CON U GET A ROM FROM THE NET ONTO UR DS? (i obviously know NOTHING about that stuff except dowloading and playingroms on my PC)

[JoeWuzHere]

yes but not in english

[OmegaPrimePhazon]

No I'm talking about the Flash Card/Cart.

[Tehpillowstar]

@OmegaPrimePhazon

Umm... I think you if have a R4 chip for the DS you could download the translated ROM into the chip and it might work, but don't take my word for it, I've never tried to do it, and I'm not even sure if it'll work. I don't meddle with pirated stuff.

[locke103]

@Tehpillowstar i think that's mostly just for DS roms though. there are some carts for slot-2 hacks, but i've never gotten to mess around with them. i'm only partially certain that's whats needed for emulator usage on a DS.

[OmegaPrimePhazon]

I know this a n00by question, but when you guys are done Mother 3, is the sound going to desync?

[starmennet]

No.

[OmegaPrimePhazon]

Oh thank God.

[bebopsam1975]

You are all gods

[omnv]

where do you download the actual game...

[Buitronthecrazy]

you must find it by yourself, they can't give the rom for legal manners.

[Edgar1205]

I give you my honor for doing this.

Man your team and you worked SOO hard to did this and the lazy Nintendo didnt want even to translate this awesome game...

You deserve Pie!

[Dadevster2]

norly

[Lishy1]

Mother 3 was a big upgrade to what other mother games had :O

[xXRyokuXx]

You guys have done a lot of work, and I can't even fathom the patience it would take.

Medals are deserved.

[SuperSenshi]

YAY! Can't wait! ;)

[zeldafanii]

Impressive! I've done some programming myself but this looks ridiculous! Great work and we'll all try to be patient!

[rruelas2]

Great games do indeed taste purple. I agree with that, Bob Dole.

[seriouskano2]

thank you so much for doing this for us.

i really have to learn some japanese though.

[KeijiKG]

I tip my hat to the progress.

That's a LOT of reprogramming to do.

[KLONOAMAN]

I cant wait!

Keep up the good work!

[fawful1boom2boom]

How come I can't save on this ROM?

[Edoeren]

Keep up the diligence. As you can see, you have many anxious supporters.

[EdgartheAlien]

the word "flawlessly" made me smile. Keep it up Mr. Dole.

[meeps4tetris]

kumatora doesn't have a nut

[meeps4tetris]

lol at the animal's remarks

[cL4usuu]

Looking really amazing so far, i'm glad it's all coming together! Keep up the great work ! ^.^

[WolfoftheDM]

I'm going to cry sissy tears when this is done. XD Thanks for your hardwork!

[MugiwaraNoSlime]

I <3 you guys so much.

[SonnyBone]

I.... I think I might actually weep tears of joy when this is finally done.

I love Nintendo, but man they've dropped the ball with this far too many times.

Thanks to everyone involved in this project. It means the world to me.

[Stichkl]

This is so awesome.

One question, when DOES it crash now?

[Monodi91]

Love. That's amore.

[cecilrickets]

Hey, fantastic work. I really appreciate all the time and effort you've all put into this.

[ChikikyoKONAMI]

You guys are making good progress with the Mother 3 translation.

Keep up the good work!!

[Zweihander01]

Oh man, you guys are awesome. I know that the one assembly code course I was forced to take actually drove me to alcoholism, and that you guys are doing such a huge game...

[Bobomb99]

Looking great so far. I hope the rest of it goes easy for you.

[DinnerSonic]

I've watched this video about three times already. This translation is actually one of my most anticipated games, even if people have ruined the plot for me.

[thom0512]

Keep up the great work!

[mushroomscout89]

:3

keep at it, bright young stallions.

[Captionboyboy]

Awesome, I know there's alot of bugs to fix, but is the translating completely done?

[MegaTailzChao]

Great games taste very purple indeed.

[kfcjpo]

I can't wait for this! Great job so far guys!

[nick747474]

It looks like it's playable as it is. I could live with some flaws like the text thing. Great work.

[TheWisestWizards]

You guys are my heroes. I can't believe it's been 2 years already.. this wait is unbearable.

[Addicted2Mario]

awesome, looks like you're making good progress!! You guys are amazing, keep up the great work!

[super3dcow]

Omg the music in Mother 3 is epic! I'm totally donating like, $50 to you guys when it's finished, only because I don't want to donate and then it never get finished, although at this point I can't imagine it not getting finished. The amount of work you are putting in to this is incredible. Thank you soooo much for doing this for us fans!

[starmennet]

We're not taking donations, for a variety of reasons. It's not about money, anyway.

[super3dcow]

Oh ok. I can see that you probably wouldn't want a lawsuit for making money off Itoi's game. Thanks again for doing such a good job on the translation.

[ItsThatOneKid]

All the stuff you guys go through so people you'll never meet can play Mother 3, thanks guys I really am looking forward to this patch!

[NekoHideaki]

Wonderful job! I'm surprised at how much progress you've guys have done! I'll be super happy when the full translation comes out!

[OfficerJordan]

This is getting REALLY good. I look forward to it.

[shadowolflash]

Awesome! You guys are so dedicated. I cant believe you do this all for free!

[Chad48309]

You really should fix the blinking sprites during scrolling text. Honestly, it's not finished until its perfect. Look at Langrisser: took 7+ years to achieve perfection, but it was well worth it.

[vacamann]

me wantie! thanks for the update!

[Metakeyman]

simply amazing. I salute you.

[cheaseitsftw]

ALMOST DONE!!! keep it up guys!!!

[EmperorSparky]

Fantastic. This really looks great and near perfect. Good job, Tomato!

[Mushroomking1967]

Now I really wanna play this! You guys are amazing!

[Nintendose]

I already finished the game in Japanese, but this game is so good I would play it again in english!

[Dracora64]

Really hoping this comes out soon. Great job guys.

[wasp2020]

Just plain awesome, it's amazing how efficient this project has been.

[Hellonagol]

Wow! A lot has been done... Keep up the good work!

[Hellonagol]

"Amazing" Work...

[megahdeth]

sweet!!!!! i cant freakin wait !!

[tacomang]

Good progress, like updates every single day! :D

Keep up the fantastic work!

[SMcCall64]

Thanks for the update on the project!

[Demont]

When it's done will I just need to download the game Rom?

[Abu5ername]

Oh man I can't wait.

[DetectiveCharlie]

You guys are my heroes. :)

[StealthJet]

I am looking forward to this.

[Zebesian04]

Very glad to see it's coming along.
