  • t... I-- ... er.. I dont know what to say ...

  • Who was the person talking at theending? also what happened exactly when lucas pulled the final needle? And why is the person at the end blind?

  • Umm can someone explain why this is a good ending? Yes the boss fight was pretty good story wise(gameplay wise not so much due to you just blocking and healing) and the ending did have me up until Claus commits suicide. Really? You finally gain your mind back and you commit suicide? Then the world ends, but everyone lives? And no one cares that no one can see? I'm sorry, but I'm going to have to dislike this ending until someone can tell me why this is good and not in a "SHUT UP ITS GOOD" way.

  • @gman5852 I definitly agree with that! Altough I love this game for all the reasons the other do, like the tragic story, the humour, the breaking of the 4th wall, the symbolism, the variety of the pixel art, etc I still think that it could have been made much better plot-wise. It just feels incomplete! What about the WhiteShip? Hummingbird Egg? The doorknob? Porky's background (his time travels)? why we didn't get to see the Dragon after all that, or have a decent final showdown?

  • wow i watched the entire video. but... mr saturn kay-o?

  • What the hell? My stupid game went back to the main menu after "End?" Oh well at least I got to see it all. I'll just sub my name in for Ryan.

  • Did I just miss her, or is there no Kumatora in the "Cast"-Section of the credits?

  • 20:44 what happens if you say "No"?

  • @mariofan1ish He still pulls out the needle

  • gross sobbing

  • Heh, I fought this battle 20 times and I still tear up.

  • 6 people have no souls, this game is so sad :'(

  • @50absol Almost? I cried throughout this game and especially here at the end.

  • I just completed this game on HARD MODE. (I did complete it on the normal mode first) Just as heartbreaking the second time around.

  • whither u choose yes or no, he still pulls the needle...

  • what happened? did the world end?

  • ... OK, how do you lock the good ending?! :(

  • I will say, the very end seemed kind of....cheap. I kept thinking 'Y'all really want to thank me? Turn on the damn lights! Let me see you. Let me see what happened, 'cause last time I looked the oceans were literally on fire!'.

    Everything leading up to that was beautiful, though.

  • wow reading this game on wikapidia gives no justus. i kinda feel bad i called lucas a pussy on brawl for running off from the wario fight

  • There's only 1 Thing about this game that sucks so much, And that's that asshole porky.

  • No manly tears shed, nothing manly about how much i cried when i first beat this

  • "Claus turns out to be the enemy because Porky turns him into a Chimera after the accident, Lucas then needs to fight Claus but can't bring himself to fight his brother, Claus pummels Lucas, Hinawa talks to whatever parts of Claus that remain, Claus realizes what he became, kills himself to be with Hinawa IN FRONT OF LUCAS, and then the world ends and everyone dies. Or do they?" - tvtropes

    Idk why, even though it's extremely sad, the ending of this synopsis was kind of funny

  • =,>

  • Comment removed

  • Wow.. This game can be depressing how can a kid have the heart to play this?

  • @ThePuddingToter

    Fuck you're gay.

  • The background of the Masked Man's phase 2 looks like a vagina.

    Freud was right.

  • @CheezLordLol Oh come on people! Freud even said something like "Sometimes cigar is just a cigar". Don't ruin this beautiful scene with your stupid comments!

  • this always makes me cry when claus starts to barely do any damage to lucas. its just so...SAD!!!

  • ;(

  • "Claus remembered Lucas' smell. 'You need some deoderent.'"

  • 21:30 - 24:20 Am I the only person to write that being disappointed by that scene? It kind of spoils the dialogue with Claus part.

  • @adsbegone Not really. I think this scene actually comes in at the perfect moment. :P

  • That "Claus embraced Lucas. Lucas..... remembered Claus's smell" ALWAYS get me. ;------;

  • "To Be kind... just like YOU."

    :'(

  • Angry Fans sent letters! NOA refused! This made Angry Fans even more angry! Offense increased by 8!

  • I didn't cry manly tears. There are only two games that I have ever played that have made me genuinely cry: Mother 3 and Pokemon Mystery Dungeon Blue. (Hey! It's depressing to listen to Cubones come to terms with reality as Pikachu starting crying!) I bawled. I went to the most soundproof room I could find and cried my heart out when I finished this game.

  • Maybe just maybe they will release this on the nintendo eshop someday just maybe

  • Holy crap, I just realized something! Lucas and Claus are anagrams! Perhaps that was the theme Flint and Hinawa took when they named their twins.

    M-moving on... This ending is so sad... I mean, Claus literally killed himself. Granted, he was dead to begin with and resurrected as a cyborg, but even so... *sniffle* And then there's a freakin' cataclysm! Good thing it seems like everyone survived...

  • So very sad...such cartoonish art style and light hearted moments and then there is this. Its just...very sad. No one really wins here. Lucas loses his mother and twin, Porky ends up trapped forever in a ball unable to really grow up and stuck in a decrepit body

  • the game looks amazing

  • never have i been this emotionally tied to a videogames since Final Fantasy VII

  • This is really sad...

  • I was crying, why Claus? You took off the mask, Fired a lightning bolt, and you died. I want to hug Lucas. Poor Lucas. :(

  • 355th like.

  • this whole game is a sob festival

  • At the end, I was like "USE YOUR F***ING LIFE-UP ON CLAUS!, You dumb nut!"

  • Shadow of the colossus has nothing on this.

  • Why does Claus kill himself?

  • @StormZephyr hes a half dead robot who was brainwashed into ruining everything he loved and was going to kill lucas and his dad if his dead mom didnt snap him out of it.

  • @StormZephyr

    Maybe he thinks the fallowing things.

    1. He views himself as a monster and wants to rid himself for the crimes he commited

    2. He's in a lot of emotional and physical pain (due to being rebuilt like Porky's chimeras)

    3. He thinks that if he dies, Lucas will gain total control over the Dragon.

    4. He really wanted to be with his mom.

  • Five of Pokey's robots disliked this.

  • At the end, I was thinking: "Ya know, Lucas. You have Healing γ and Healing Ω, and a Cup of Lifenoodles in your inventory. Use it on your brother, dammit!"

  • the best,most touching game ever,you laugh,but you cry more,im crying right now...some things just have no easy way out....its more than a game...its a Legend...(plz keed this as a top comment)

    Mother 3 is the best

  • fuck the ppl who disliked this i almost cried!!!!!!!!!!!

  • @50absol Only reason I'd dislike it was for such an unhappy ending. Though it would have been a great game for me if I played it before I watched it all.

  • @50absol

    I did.

    I tried to not cry before the end... I failed miserably. Is that a good thing?

  • @50absol almost? I did and still do

  • Nothing more touching than a mother's love.

  • wawawawaWAAAAAAAAT!? I turned it off after i saw "END?" T_T

  • Really? someone disliked this?

  • @CamStarkey Pokey Disliked this 5 times

  • This is the best Game series ever. I wish with all my heart that Nintendo come to their senses and make more games for a series that deserves it more than any other, left in the back of the picture-frame for years, unknown to the vast majority, discarded as trash because of graphics by the immature, but we know. We know that we are in the right, and that we shall not ever give up, not until the day that Nintendo finally gives their ultimate masterpiece the respect that it deserves.

  • 8th best selling RPG series in Japan. My personal favorite series.

  • @guysafari Is that true? What are the other 7? I'll make them pay! D:<

  • having to stare into your brothers face after not seeing him or so long alone must've almost completely lucas.... I felt exactly like lucas would when he held his brother in his arms for his final breath...

  • OH NO THE PORKY CITY!!!

  • 36:05 always gets me, because it shows what it would have been like if things hadn't happened the way they did...

  • This is so sad.

  • i need to know how it ended

  • The First 2 Mother Games Didn't Really Make Me Feel Emotional,But This Made Me Feel Completely Emotional :P

  • @guitarandbassmaster1 Wow, I'd cry so hard with this ending if I had put my older brother's name on Claus, hahaha. Take this as a sign to show your brother some love! <:

  • Very few games are able to even tug on my heartstrings..but Mother is a series that always shall.

  • "The Lucas's shield vanished!"

  • The Masked Man looks like Luke Skywalker w/ his wannabe light saber and X-wing pilot helmet.

  • 18:00

    When I first played this I kept yelling at Claus:

    Use Lifeup!

    Use Lifeup!

    Use Lifeup, damnit! T_T

  • GOD DAMN IT I DIDNT KNOW THERE WERE WORDS AFTER THE END!

    WHAT A FUCKING IDIOT I AM!

  • @MrHomelessHank Don't feel bad, I didn't know, either. I played through the game a couple of times to see if I could do anything different to affect it, but I still didn't get all that text. I even held down the frame skip button for quite awhile, seeing if something happened after... perhaps just stupidity on my part? Or, missing ending parts? I don't know, but I know that what I had seen before confused me.

  • @BitchcakesMcDoogle Before the fan translation was finished I watched the ending on Youtube without thinking that I'd ever be able to play it English, the video I saw cut off at about 24:20, when I finally got to play it in English I just stopped playing before the wrap up thinking that was it, the game just decided to end on a note 30 times darker than Earthbound. I still don't know just what the fuck happened.

  • @MrHomelessHank And this type of thing is why we love the "Mother" series so much. THIS is the only RPG I will play. I will not play "Final Fantasy" or anything else RPG-like. It's just that good and thought provoking. More than a game.

    Maybe we'll figure it out one day. :) Until then, the "Mother" series is the shit.

  • @MrHomelessHank I figured out how to see the rest of the ending. A slap in the face, really. JUST WALK AROUND. It doesn't matter what direction, you'll hear footsteps once you start walking, then you'll start bumping into people. It's odd. I felt bad it was that easy because I already watched this ending. BLARG, I SAY, BLARG.

  • I Wish Clau Or however you say his name never died and Lucas was happy with him.

  • It's SO sad, They really know how to make someone cry.

  • Thumbs up if you cried manly tears.

  • @Pico0 ENOUGH WITH THE THUMBS UP CRAP! This scene is too sad for that! And for everyone else, stop talking about random things and talk about Claus death! Come on! Are you Mother Fans, or Black Ops Fans? Im a Mother Fan so lets all stay that way! I love you all Mother Fans!

  • @Pico0 *Plays Guiles theme (Sad Version)*

  • After playing through 3 times, I still cannot get past the music at 14:35 without crying.

  • I played Smash Bros Brawl before this. I remember saying how much of a coward Lucas was, how he should grow a pair and how it's said that he's being carried by other characters, and how Ness shouldn't have needed to take the bullet for him.

    But after playing this game? I felt like such an asshole given how much he went through.

  • So like did everyone die at the end and they were in after life or soemthing?

  • @wesleytocool No the agreed upon consensuses is that they didn't die there are many forums on the subject.

  • @GlamEye but how could they have survived that... that... cataclysm?

  • I think Lucas wished for Porky to never have attacked, but at the same time... Lucas could have his friends with him...

  • This made my heart hurt.

  • You cannot grasp the true form of... O wait, wrong boss!!

  • just asking...

    Mother 2 has anything to do with Mother 3? 0_0

  • @enirado No, it does not have anything to do with mother 2 besides Porky being there.

  • @ClassicHorrorDB And Dr. Andonuts

  • The masked man unmasked is mask? MASKCEPTION

  • No wonder Lucas was so sad in SSBB...

  • 18:00 +...could not stop crying...

  • These mother games are based around abortion? Wtf

  • @P0073Rs No they're not, giygas kind of is.

  • My name is Ryan too, so this looks just like my ending lol.

  • I heard the final battle between Lucas and Claus was much darker in the N64 version

  • @smuckfuzzer yeah, me too

  • @smuckfuzzer That'd be kinda hard to do since its already dark and depressing.

  • @DarkDrone256 Well the stuff about their mother's ghost talking to them during the battle wasnt in it. I think it was pretty much a deathmatch between the bros

  • Masked man= Darth Vadar

    Luke= Lucas

    Leia= Kumatora

    Han Solo= Duster

    Storm trooper= Pigmask

    Porky= Darth sidious

    Boney= Chewbacca

    Flint= Obi wan

  • POKEY IS A BASTARD

  • @CheeseDeluxe correction PORKY IS A FAT BASTARD

  • @CheeseDeluxe this a offense to all the bastards all over the world...apologize

  • @CheeseDeluxe HE MADE CLAUS BAD I AGREE

  • @pootispootispootis CLAUS IS SPY!!!

  • Teell meee ifff im hummaan!!! I played it to the end but I just felt a tiny bit sad like i said it moved me but not much I just reacted to it like any other ending of a game I didn't cry but i had goosebumps all over meee! After reading comments almost 80% of them include they cried but i didnt maybe because people were watching me? :l

  • @Ryuzekia its like that with me as well. ive gotten over crying at endings.

  • Tis moved me i finished the game yesterday

  • hey there names have he exactame letters!!! just relized!!! :D

  • i love ness and lucas evenly but lucas hs a more sad story :(

  • More like PK Tough Love... -.-

  • He dies... Gets turned into a robot.. Is alive... And... Dies again o.o

  • @supermantahoo He never actually got turned into a robot. "You aren't Porky's robot" is just a figure of speech.

  • Every time I watch this, I cry.

  • *sigh* if only flint called a search team for Mt. orilander 3 years BEFORE.... Claus wouldn't end up being controlled by PORKY...

  • I don't remember Ryan in the game...

  • unlike porky, claus' transition to the dark side was very dramatic and heartbreaking...

    F@CK YOU PORKY

  • I love how Earthbound/The Mother games make you feel like the greatest person in the world when you win.

  • i cried at the end when Claus died

  • 20:45 Zelda moment

  • @CommanderMcMillan I know what you're reffering, but... this has nothing to do with Zelda. Unlike Zelda, this game felt human, how the characters developed, it was realistic, no matter how much fantastic stuff it had...

  • Hear the distinct twang of the Franklin badge at 17:45

    Heart suddenly skips a beat.

    That moment.

    Just that one moment.

    Thats all to say on it. Just that one heartbreaking moment.

  • I lol'd hard

  • @Jelley0 how?

  • you have to feel sad for him first his mom dies now his brother it's hard to believe that he had to fight against his own twin brother then he sacrificed himself just to keep lucas alive he must've really loved his brother that has to be the saddest part out of the whole game it's a really cool game too bad it's only for japan

  • @Shadow56233

    I think he was dead when Porky found him. You keep seeing the Magypsies referencing that they couldn't feel evil nor good being passed on to the dragon. Something was going down. It leads me to believe thanks to the reconstruction of Claus that he couldn't remember right away. It makes it even more sad.

  • this game was so good i played it 15 hours straight when i first got it

  • 5 people sure are soul-less assholes

  • 41 minutes long?Wooow...that's long

  • Anyone know the battle background is the same as the evil mani mani background from mother 2?

  • @lardeater2441 thats pretty cool

  • Don't heal him or anything, Lucas. Just sit there and watch him die...

  • @EchoEnder It's safe to assume that at the point, Lucas was either out of PSI power or Claus was beyond saving physically

  • 23:43 It'd be funny if you saw Toon Link sailing in the ocean.

  • 20:00

  • skip to 18:00 to see Claus after the battle

  • Could someone explain this to me? I don't understand the bit with all the text and stepping sound effects.......

  • @Harnikawa Did you play/watch through the rest of the game? Those were characters from the game thanking you for playing basically. "Ryan" is the name of metroidrage presumably. It asks you your real name early in the game.

  • "The Masked Man used PK Love Ω" that part just gave away who the masked man was...

  • @alyankfreak they already revealed that it was cluas even before they got into the fight.

  • @1upguy I posted that before I beat Mother 3. Now it made me look stupid...

  • @alyankfreak no problem bro.

  • no matter what i do i cant win... ive made it to the 8th dialogue but then i die

  • lucas is the most legit video game character which is why hes my main in brawl (second to captain falcon ofcourse) and he powns especially as claus skin

  • They could totally make a mother 4. The 7 needles could have been some kind of fail safe for something, and shaped the world in a way where, across time and space, the protaganists meet each other for the last fight.

  • @Pacalakin There's already a Mother 4.

    And it's called Pokemon ! :)

  • @Lumitikal I don't know who you are. I don't know who you THINK you are. But you have made me mad. You have made me veeery mad. You have insulted my pride and my fandom, and it will not stand. I'm coming for you you little french bitch, and all the surrendering in the world wont help you.

  • @Pacalakin You really need to insult me ? God...

    Who I think I am ? Just a fan of Mr. Shigesato's work, just like you, apparently.

    And whether you like it or not, the mother/pokemon theory is not from my mind, it's a theory shared by some fans. (arguments : chimera's evolution, same company who make the game, ect...)

    I can understand you're passionnate, but you really need to calm down... I'm not even a troll or something, I just wanted to expose my opinion.

  • @Pacalakin ''You have insulted my pride and my fandom.''

    Oh lord my sides! Holy shit that was funny man!

  • Dam when this said spoliers I thought it was bull but dammm... and I'm not even done with the game yet

  • how is this in english?

  • If no one is watching me I could burst into tears right now..

  • holy crap it took 1 person to work on the story and the songs.

    Damn this is a game that was made by pure heart.

    Man in today's fast pace production I usually see about 25-100 people for one stupid category like IQR testers or something (If you played Scott Pilgrim the game you know what I'm talking about (in the credits)).

  • i only have one question who stabed hinawa did claus do it or porky?

  • @supermariobros1233 -.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-

    A FRICKEN DRAGO BIT HER.

    seriously, at least play through the first chapter before skipping to the end.

  • @drewdeth9 a drago did not bit here it was pierced threw her heart a drago would have ate her if that was the case so some one took it out and stabed her with it and i think its claus basically

  • @supermariobros1233

    That doesn't make sense, considering Clause became the masked man BECAUSE of his mother's death.

  • @Geminilion100 yes im trying to say is porky came made claus into masked man and claus also masked man killed hiwana thats my theroy

  • @supermariobros1233 Actually Hinawa was killed by the draco not Claus, he was killed as well but Porky took his body and reanimated him into the masked man.

  • @stevenatmeadow

    Wait, you think he died? I thought he was just torn apart, then corrupted by Porky.

  • @Geminilion100 Have you not played the game?

    He was still alive when Hinawa was killed, in fact she saved them from the draco than Claus goes to avenge his mother but he is killed in the process, than Porky takes his body and corrupts him, need to get your facts together man.

  • @stevenatmeadow

    Yes, I have played the game. By the way the game implied it, Claus was just knocked out and was severly injured. It never said that Claus died after his encounter with Mecha Drago. True Porky could do a lot of things, but i doubt very much that he could bring back the dead.
