MOTHER 3 Translation Development Glitches

[DaVince21]

00:35 Now THAT is Moonspeak.

[MrEmobook101]

4:15 i bet during your hacking that scared the sh*t out of you

[supermantahoo]

4:17 looks like flint just defeated gigyas...

[supermantahoo]

2:12 OMG WTF BBQ! BUZZ BUZZ, YOUR ALIVE!

[HiperJ10]

And this is what happens if Ness can't stop Giygas...

[Rellik165]

9:00 That's a lot of children...

I hope these glitches have been fixed.

[MrMinemonBound]

7:02 - Welcome to Tazmoon Village!

[snapy666]

I just wanted to say "Thank you" for that great translation :D

[MarioMarioBW]

9:05 Flint and Hanawa are so proud,there new born twins are already math wizards xD

[MrProfessorDrSmith]

3:10 Zalgo strikes Mother 3, there is no stopping him!

[stopeatingthepizza]

With two children at once...

And Lucas...

Lucas was adopted.

[KisaiSakurai]

6:45 ::time freezes:: Time, Dr. Lucas? ::sighs:: Is it REALLY that time again?

It seems as if you only just arrived. You've done a great deal in a small timespan. ::inhales:: You've done so well, in fact, that I've received some interesting offers for your services. Ordinarily, I wouldn't contemplate them, but... these are EXTRAordinary times...

7:02 ::everything gets psychadelic:: Rather than offer you the illusion of free choice, I will take the liberty of chooosing for yoouu...

[apocaly21]

4:00 it's giygas trying to speak with flint

[Superlol020]

04:16

It seems that Flint divided by zero and broke the game.

[Brad64LP]

6 people had this happen to them in real life.

[Wobuffet3]

welcome to moonside.

[darkzzii]

7:00 GIYGAS COMES BACK AND TAKES OVER!

[iluvmypuddycat]

The Mother 3 fan translation is better than a copy of an officially translated game I bought at a store.

[jujurevenge]

7.00 !edisnooM

[luckjes112]

Mole cricket made the world end! or, so it looks!

[NebsCallsTehYetiPpl]

lucas: aww great, the game i live in is all glitchy... i got my body scrambled, the world morphed, and now the battle text is high!

battle text:janfuawhfiunslvcjayuvbda jafhvna jhaulucascjuqiavhowahviofuwgv

lucas: i cant understand you! i dont speak a combination of drunk and glitch!

battle text:kghsijlghvjwhvnuiw hvuiwor hnwriu?

lucas:ahhhhhhh!!!! *runs from battle text

[NebsCallsTehYetiPpl]

3:10, nightmares....

[NebsCallsTehYetiPpl]

@ :00 did you do any map hacks? (i doudbt it) @ :50, probably due to the text hacking you were doing, the item menu wasn't able to load any text, making it glitch out.

[NebsCallsTehYetiPpl]

i really think you guys are the best ever for making such a wonderful translation that nintendo wouldn't get up and make. it must have sucked having these glitches happen while translating. how did they end up happening? they seem to strange for me to have ANY idea of what could be going on with the game, (I research glitches for games i like and after a days work, i can come up with a good theory

[NebsCallsTehYetiPpl]

that first glitch was caused from the mushrooms in chapter 7 XD

[GogotteandSig]

06:45

Lucas and co are addicted to those mushrooms now...

Eating them once is one thing, but the Block 0 glitch is what happens if you do it more...

[BladeTheFirst]

4:15 Giygas is approaching!!!

[Cloaytonem2]

GLIYTCHGAS SUDDENLY ATTACKED!

[Tehpillowstar]

Wow... those are not just glitches... they're super glitches...

[Frohstaruus]

Finish your unused section on the site already, I mean it's been forever.

Also the unused maps section has been removed for copyright.

[agentsh]

Zalgo comes at 3:12

[sp0909]

at the Beginning Proves that the Earth Moves for Flint norris.

[IsisStarlights]

4:16 I think Giygas invaded that background.

7:10 Moonside?!

[MrSaturn33]

I don't get it, is it still like this? I played 1.0 a while back and it was just fine.

[IsisStarlights]

@MrSaturn33 This was during the patch development.

[Friedslick6]

Mole Cricket met face-to-face-to-face-to-faceas­dkaskasd.

[AlexDeLargo]

4:16 still happens to me a lot. I play it on the VBA and it happens whenever I encounter the first Pork Tank and some Osohe enemies, it also freezes my game. 4:50 occurs sometimes too. I dont get it, I've tried patching 2 different roms and played on 3 different computers and always get the same result

[tails230]

4:16 Oh no! You cannot grasp Gyigas taking control of your Mother 3 game!!!

[RamBanjoDX]

Block 0 Glitch Reminds me of Moonside in Mother 2.

[davidhunt9]

i need help getting the game, i have the japaneese gba file but i dont know what to do next, send me a message

[dumbasspauldentonkin]

with two children at once...

And Lucas...

[Unclevertitle]

Such heartwarming poetry!

[MrChaosBeast]

did you just eat that chick at 4:46?

[PurpleYorshee]

09:41 - Fun fact, that text is actually what Ionia tells you when she tells you about the Needles.

[GlitchmasterStudios]

While playing the game for myself, I encountered a few menu glitches where it copied and rearanged some of the letters. But, other than that you guys did a nice job debugging this.

[smb40]

3:53

Flir?!

[beebnegron]

7:02

moonside!

[beebnegron]

04:15

giygas is attacking the game....

[Dragynn999]

I thought the same :D

[MEGAGUY21]

how in the world did all that happen

by just changing the text from Japanese to English, not saying that a easy task but like the graphic went moonside, game crashed, in all other weird stuff..most not contenting to text.

lol maybe the game don't like to be translated

[MenloMarseilles]

It's never *just* changing the text. For one thing, every letter in Japanese is the same width; to make the font look good they had to write a bunch of custom GBA code so that thin letters would take up less room. Then there's adding "the" in the right places in battle text when no such issue existed in the original language, increasing the maximum character name size so that people could have their proper names, and more. So many places to go wrong, and with just one little mistake... bang!

[poopskinTheLiar]

Or: Yog-Sothoth invades the Nowhere islands.

[ness7281992]

Where's the Cthulhu fish? Where's all the voodoo cults? And, for that matter, where the heck is my Dr. Pepper for keeping me awake at night so I can read the Mythos?

[StarGengar]

3:12 You cannot grasp the true form of the Mole cricket attack!

[VulpesAnonymous]

Reminds me of that "ZALGO COMES" stuff...

[mobilisq]

combine the crazy map drawing with the graphical components of the block 0 glitch and youre in for a wild acid trip

[Yoshinator]

Maxtrix babies, that's how they learned PSI

[seanileus]

I'll bet this was a painful stage, right?

[CrvyloOo5]

4:16 GIYGAS wants to fight!

[StarGengar]

7:03 WELC OME TO MO ONSI DE!

[BladeTheFirst]

well then Flint's screwed

[iStarfruit]

LOL crib numbers glitch

Imagine if that was still/actually in the game.

Way to ruin a moment. :O

[lishakara]

7:00

?edisnoom ot emoclew

[KaiRaidenX]

Giygas is taking revenge cause he was cut out of

[shroopliss]

7:47

Lucas talks to a supposedly pink haystack, but it had nothing interesting to talk about.

[chosentonessournotes]

After seeing this, I would truly have to say that Mother fans are THE MOST dedicated on the internet. By far.

[sp0nge1337]

not much to compare it to, no other set of fans has had to compete with it's creators

[katiekat9988]

@chosentonessournotes

Sorry I voted down your comment. I clicked it accidentally when I meant to click another video. I agree with you all the way. <:(

[chosentonessournotes]

@katiekat9988 That's quite alright kiddo. One downvote doesn't hurt!

[MotherBound1]

@chosentonessournotes You're damn right!

[Kazil6598]

4:22 OMG MOTHER GOT BROKEN

[DeDaDoDu]

Giygas is invading the game OMG!

[windowssucks101]

7:03 Moonside from Earthbound?

[salad9090]

i think u mean "m oo nside"

[OnikakushiXRENA]

7:04

Holy shit, is that Moonside?

[corneliab]

I thought that Youtube's 10 minute policy was done away with... >_>

One of my vids from January goes over the supposed time limit, and I seem to remember seeing an article or announcement stating that the limit was no longer in effect.

[KopperNeoman]

Little known fact, it's actually an 11 minute policy. Videos can't be 11 minutes or more. I don't know if it's still like that.

[SlicMatt411]

But there's still vids that r over an hour long (search 'Digimon Movie')

[TehMatoking]

Users who became Directors, Gurus etc. before the limit was put in effect can still submit as long videos as they want.

[EMike07]

Amazing how you got from... uh, that... to the finished product.

I wouldn't have been able to go through with it, it looks way too frustrating.

[TehMatoking]

Giygas didn't seem to accept your attempt at translating the game : 4:16

[PantaroParatroopa]

0:52 Flint can't grasp the form of the item menu... 2:06 ... almost everybody... 3:48 ... the text... 4:16 ...and the background. Also, 9:03 Lucas and Claus learn how to count!

[zaezae64]

hey i have aquestion. whenever i load a savestate on this it glitches up and eventualy freezes. do you think i patched it wrong or is it my emulator (im using visual boy advance)

[TehMatoking]

Save states can pretty much screw up your games. Did you use save tastes BEFORE patching the game?

[zaezae64]

no i didnt savesate before patching. should i have?

[TehMatoking]

No.

[votojak999]

7:00 WELCOME TO MOONSIDE!

[Cloaytonem2]

4:15 reminded me of Giygas

[DryYoshi]

Alot of numbers in the end!

[detonateasplode]

Man, seeing what you went through, just makes me even more thankfull. Mother 3 translation rules!

[Crash22203]

Hey starmannet

You should post another 10 minute video of Mother 3 glitches that you have encountered while you were translating it to English.

It's so interesting

[PKRockin7]

Yeah!

[1DJKoopa1]

lol, 4:16 scared the crap out of me, wasn't expecting that XD

[animefreak3345]

Woah, freaky...

[alphasimaed]

LOL GIYGAS AT 4:16

[Xkeeper0]

The limit is actually 10:59 ;) Just thought you guys should know.

[fed306]

cool

[OMGITSJAD]

7:03

Moonside?!

[iluvmypuddycat]

7:05  this is what happens when you eat purple mushrooms.

[iluvmypuddycat]

wow. its a wonder you finished it so fast.

[Claus939]

07:03

NEGATIVE!!!!!!!!

[dadocuadrado]

OMG 4:16 IS GIYGAS

[blackchaosshadow]

lol every glitch in this game is caused by giygas' anger toward nintendo for cutting him out of mother 3

[Crash22203]

I first found that out =P

Giygas IS in Mother 3!

[rapskallionxyz]

6:53 looks like frog joined the party.

[Crash22203]

Claus.... Lucas.... 123456789012345 1234567890123456 12345678901234567 123456789012345678 1234567890123456789 12345678901234567890 12345678901234567890 12345678901234567890 12345678901234567890 12345678901234567890 12345678901234567890 What is Flint and Hinawa trying to tell Lucas and Claus?!

[Ironman1o1]

Go into Math studies?

[PebblePeas]

THE END.

...

I expected a question mark! XD

[KirbyPhelpsPK]

08:13

BORANGE!!!

[thegiraffe94]

7:05 brings back moonside memories

[juleschicoine]

"If you stay here too long, you'll end up frying your brain. Yes, you will. No, you will...not. Yesno, you will won't." -Guy in Moonside

[Crash22203]

I remember that .

I really hate the part when you have to say yes or no =P

[greendayluver972]

wow that is some crazy crap right there...7:02 is the best

[sonicpie3000]

7:05

AAAAAAA

MOONSIDE

[spoildajv13]

4:20

So Giygas IS in Mother 3...

[Fawriel]

Whoa. I had no idea trying to translate some text could cause such havoc on completely unrelated areas of the game... Must've been even harder to finish this than one would think. So thanks even more!

[SwimmingBird941]

I actually still get the "Battle Text Glitch #2" glitch...do you know what causes it Mato? I have a flash cart, and after playing for 10 minutes or so while on my Gamecube player the game freezes up and makes that crazy harsh sound. I'd play it on the DS, but apparently it doesn't consistently save my game....and ironically, the Gamecube player always saves it, but has that glitch

[starmennet]

Must be your cart. I don't know much about flash carts but I know some people with certain carts have had problems like that. Check the m3 forums for help I guess.

[hackerhell900]

@starmennet

I actually get his problem on the ds. Though for me, it also happens on pokemon and other games when the cart is hit or moved out of place. So it was most likely a physical problem with me hitting it.

[playmoviesnow1]

aww man that must suk. I guess im lucky because that hasn't happened to me!

[meeps4tetris]

9:12

Lucas, welcome to the matrix

[HellSong212]

7:05 Welcome to Moonsideedisnoom ot emoclew!

[PSIJunkie]

Whoa, some crazy stuff went during the process.

[Napstrpsx]

I have a feeling these didn't seem so funny and heartrending at the time, heh.

[Crash22203]

WTF

2:44

The Iron Pencil is an octopus =P

I don't think a Pencil Eraser erases octopuses

[CaptainPoopface]

this was the best video ever.

[Crash22203]

Look at 4:15

It's like when Giygas dies in the end of Mother 2/EarthBound o.o

[OfficerJordan]

7:03

Welcome to Moonside.

[Alex44343]

07:03 looked like mother 3 on LSD.

[Linkzcap]

Cool!

[TrueSoreThumb]

BTW, I think the youtube limit is actually more like 10:59 :3

[SHYKOOPA]

so...emotional....I'm speechless....

[PankeymanProductions]

Wow, I never knew you guys had to deal with crap like this making the translation, that's just amazing.

[Thatcomputerperson]

100% Agreed.

[mariovssonic64]

of course they did. to edit a game you have to take it apart, and put it back together, but putting a game back together isnt as easy as it sounds.

[PankeymanProductions]

Well I don't know anything about programing to begin with so I would never understand what they did. But I'll bet it was pretty hard.

[KeijiDragon]

6:49 - 7:02

Did Lucas ate a Skip Sandwich?

[hokageninja9090]

lol when it said F  t got a nutbread it looked like "faggot" censored XD

[DRCAM122]

Was that Giygas coming back? O_o @ Battle text Glitch 2

[FunniestofFunny]

you should've released this and call it: one MOTHER of a problem :P

[poopskinTheLiar]

you gotta love glitches. they're one of the few things that can be confusing, frustrating and funny at the same time.

[IMMATOONLINK]

welcome to moonside.

[Crash22203]

[farfromsubtle]

This reinforces the incredibly challenging amount of work that was done on this translation.

[NikokingTheEpic]

At farfromsubtle

That is so true.

[Kolinichu]

4:15

GIYGAS IS BACK!

[cheesewheel]

F  t got the Nut Bread.

[LolTater]

Mole cricket will fuck your shit up.

[stepbystep29]

Funny and weird hacking you did

^^

[IWontGetOvertheDam]

Woah, some of these are pretty messed up.

[IWontGetOvertheDam]

Congratulations. You are the greatest person ever to exist in the history of mankind.

[SconnerStudios]

congrats on sucking :P

[Crashbroke23]

The glitch at 7:23 reminds me of moonside from Earthbound.
