  • Just got this game in the mail yesterday (: now if only the SNES will hurry up and get here...

  • Sweet video -- too bad that ugly, ignorant jerkoff Reidman infests the Related Videos section with his face.

  • this video makes me so happy :)

  • Just beat Earthbound FINALLY! This makes me internally happy, and I feel I could float on clouds motherfucker. This isn't a game. This is art.

  • For the record, I think people would purchase EarthBound for the Wii Virtual Console even if it cost 2000 credits. It's worth every penny!

  • My interest in EarthBound mostly came from the fact that it was an RPG set in modern times instead of Medieval times like most RPGs of its time. That, and also the trippy, far out-style music with a jazz/bebop undertone, inspired by such artists as The Beatles, Ric Ocasek of The Cars, The Beach Boys and many others. The humor injected into this game is priceless, guaranteeing laughter for hours. All in all, I recommend this game to gamers of all walks of life, not just the RPG fanatics. Game on!

  • If only this game could be brought to millions more to enjoy it like my generation did... Oh wait there is a way! But what? Legal stuff? What??? It's a fuckin game! Bring it out on the Wii and make tons of money har har har!!! Also very awesome video I'm gunna have to go play it on my crappy SNES lol

  • That resumed my experience with mother 2 pretty much well :P

  • Dude. c mon, earthbound is the absolute greatest game ever created and the music is amazing. if you dont like earthbound, please go hang yourself because you obviously have no good sense of an amazing gaming experience.

  • awesome!!!!!!

  • Unfitting music.

  • the music fits perfectly. are you saying that Earthbound doesn't rock? it's a totaly hardcore game. I think it matches perfectly

  • Whelp that was fucking awesome.

  • Mother 3 rocked, you probably just didn't bother getting past the whole Flint chapter. I prefer it over Mother 2 in all honesty.

  • MOTHER 3 and MOTHER 2, even with the same name and powers, are completly different.

    First, mother 2 is kinda more randomic, like look how ness begin his adventure: and meteor fall near your house and a fly tells you that you are a chosen boy. In mother 3, things are a bit more logical, ike the enemy actually did something to the hero (kiled his mother), and then the things start to roll. If you ask me, I think the mother 2 random style is much funnier them mother 3 logical style.

  • >Some of you might recognize Ness from Super Smash Bros. Melee because this is his orginal game.

    >recognize Ness from Super Smash Bros. Melee

    I just raged so unimaginably hard.

    That said, good compilation OP.

  • 3:02 Ness is frickin' nasty because he takes a hamburger out of the TRASH CAN

  • I know, it's hilarious. You should play the game!

  • earthbound, or mother, takes the cake as one of the best friggin rpg's of all times

  • Earthbound. One of the best games ever.

  • Change "One of the best games ever" And change it to:

    "The Best game ever"

    And that Statement is fixed.

  • No, friend. That would be Super Mario 64.

  • Comment removed

  • Whoa, whoa. Don't get your panties in a wad.

  • No, friend. That would be _____.

  • I want Mother 3 on shelves in american soil with english translation SO bad!!! bought this game when i was about 8 or so, didn't realize how rare and amazing it was till maybe five years ago hah. SO good!! got it at a local grocery store that rented and sold old games and such.

  • mother 3 was a dissapointment for me and others that i talked too. Its an ok game but you dont get the same feel as you did with mother 2

  • yeah, i managed to at least try the translated version of the ROM (i deleted it though lol don't really want legality issues..) but it didn't really keep my attention, it didn't even have the same sort of top down view. and the story just kind of drags on. all it relaly did was make me miss mother 2.

  • I LOVE EARTHBOUND

  • I was watching some show late the other night and some Blues Brothers wannabe group was doing their gig onstage and did the whole choreography to the Fabulous Five preformance scene. I wish I could remember what I was watching... I nearly died laughing.

  • playing Mother atm its very similar story wise to the sequel and just as crazy

  • Excellent.

  • This should have been the background video for Bouff on In The Groove.

  • Awesome

  • KOOL WHAT SONG IS IT?!?!?!?!

  • bouff by machinae supremacy

  • What other game can ya play and say, "Hey, I just ate something out of the garbage."

  • good question...maybe legend of zelda? ah no

  • there was a nes version wasn't it???

  • their was a prequel called mother on the famicon but the us version was scraped. mother 2 was came in the us as earthbound

  • Yes there was noobalicious.

  • Earthbound Zero

  • I really like this video, and i've seen it a billion times.

  • --oops. those were ,meant tp be replyes to other responses, sorry--

  • The best game ever.

    For me, and 30,0000 others.

  • EXCELLENT video Earthbound is my favorite

    game of all 5 stars

  • WOOT Trash Burgurs FTW! Earthbound SNES is the kind of game where you CAN eat food outta the garbage, you CAN legally beat up hippies, and CAN eat "magic cake" and get illusions. besides future installments, id like to see another game like this. its actually pretty challenging at first..

  • Oh yeah, I'm stuck in EB. I can't revive one of my party members....;-;

  • Ah, to revive a party member, take them to a hospital. :3 you'll need quite a bit of money though...

  • The doctor said that they never had a patient like that...D: And I figured it out. Thanks though.

  • no its not, pokemon is just anothe RPG, its not a spinoff. besides, pokemon is totally different than Earthbound. if anything, you might call earthbound a spinoff of final fantasy, but thats disgracing to earthbound and its not true.

  • Earthbound= really non-sensical goodness :D It was just a try to break rpg's out from the whole dungeons and dragons feel they were given back then. It is it's own thing

  • I don't understand your sentence? Are you trying to say that EarthBound is a spin off of pokémon, or that Pokémon is a spin off of EarthBound? Well, considering Pkmn came out on the gameboy in 1996 and EarthBound came out on the Super Famicom in 1995, and its prequel Mother came out even earlier in 1989 on the Famicom, EarthBound can't be a spinoff of pkmn.

  • Though it is true some of the developers in the MOTHER series went on to help produce Pokemon.

  • Pokemon was steamingly cold immoral shit out of a fighting cock's bloody asshole compared to the Mother series...

  • K., thanks.

  • its because APE who was behind mother and earthbound changed there name to Game freak so mother and pokemon are from the same company but theyr not related

  • Actually, one of the developers for Mother 2 went on to OWN the Pokemon Company/Creatures Inc.

    Another one of the developers for Mother 2 went on to become the current president of Nintendo of Japan.

  • While it is true pkmn have SOME similarities with EB(It's an RPG, the main protagonist is a young boy with a red cap in a modern setting, enemies have weakness to certain element like a rock-paper-scissor game, Mewtwo is Giegue's long-lost brother, you can recognize some music, etc...), they are different in many, MANY (get it, mani mani ? Huh? ah-ah-ah...) points, and are not to be considered as spinoff of one another.

  • Man i wish i had this game for the SNES... I've played a version on it (for the NES). This game totally rocks.

  • i've never played this game, although, is it maybe for the gameboy advance?

    i dun have that either, but gameboy adv. games can be played on the DS, and i got that one :D

    got wii, gc and the 64 and etc.

    ( im 15 so, not really old school )

    anyway, thats what i wanted to ask, since im away from home alot.. so boring times, and this looks fun.

    thx

  • technically it was released on the gba, but only in Japan

  • it was going to be on n64 but hit gba ensted but still it might come to wii vc

  • it was going to be on n64 but hit gba ensted but still it might come to wii vc

  • Sorry, the VC doesn't take GBA games, and I think your talking about Mother 3, EarthBound's sequel...

  • This is one of the best games I've ever played, I have the cartridge for SNES, but good luck finding it. Just download an emulator.

  • whta is this game about?

  • Download it and find out,it's pretty kewl,can pretty much guarantee you'll like it if you're into final fantasy.

  • o ok

  • Good to see there's someone else out there that appreciates an awesome game and an awesome band.

  • I want this game so badly. ;_; It had better come to Virtual Console. I may turn to emulation if it's not confirmed for VC soon after Brawl comes out.

  • just your opinion, sir. I like it.

  • You're crazy, Machinae Supremacy is awesome.

  • one of the more reasons i have some more of these songs. megascorcher would make a good music for a video.

  • It's well worth the playthrough. Took me a few days of solid playing (about 5 hours a day). The game itself holds a ton of surprises that most veteran gamers won't even expect. This is more than true for the enemy roster, and the storyline and events also keep the game flowing nicely. It didn't go big over on these shores, but it did go big in japan, and after playing it, I can honestly see why it did. One of the best TBCRPG (Turn Based Combat Roleplaying Games) I've ever gotten my hands on.

  • Because there will always be people like you -.-

    Plz PLz PLz get your facts right. Earthbound = mother 3? Lucas? Pk starstorm?

    Go get yourself some info before you start asking questions here. You know there is like Wikipedia and shit out there. Maybe that will help?

    Kids these days.

  • Yeah daan, your right, but you were a jackass in how you said it. sorry. so, out of spite...

    "Mother 3" is the japanese name of the sequel to the game featured in this video, Earthbound (or, in japan, Mother 2). You could consider it Earthbound 2.

  • Read the facts before posting, number one rule of the internet.

  • well sory i didnt know what earthbound was and all i wanted was answers not this crud about me being a jackass so screw off and what facts? i dont see any facts about earthbound,there is no reviews wiki is screwed up and google keeps leadin me to other places so number one rule if u dont understand the question dont reply

  • One of the best games I ever played.

  • thats funnny, Nes finds a hamburger in the trash

  • OH MY GOD!!!

    i missed this game soooooooooooo much.

    where can i download this game anyone please?

  • 0:36, is that espio from sonic?

  • "goldenmeteor (2 months ago)

    0:36, is that espio from sonic?"

    No, It's a Hippie.

    A New Age Retro Hippie to be exact.

    Although it would be funny if espio was created from a hostile hippie you can beat tons of in earthbound

  • @goldenmeteor

    No you silly person that is a genuine

    New Age Retro Hippie at 0:36.

    He's much more respected than ANY sonic character although he's only an ordinary enemy.

  • I miss this game. I should find my SNES and play it again sometime soon.

  • Can't wait for Earthbound 2 supremacy!

    Come on NoA, quit messin' with us!!

  • do you remember the reviews this game recieved in EGM oohhh what bad reviewsa by abad review crew it got something like two 7s

    and a 6 but i gave it a 10 and i hated EGM ever since that review

  • i recently beat this game on the emulator

    now im starting super metroid

  • I have never played this game and i've been searching flea markets for it every weekend!

    I finally find it for 90 fricken dollars! O_O Is it THAT good!?

    I just bought it off Ebay for 50 bucks... this damn games never gonna be on VC is it? -_-

  • use an emulator instead. that's free

  • Its actually coming for the VC

  • doesn't matter. Emulators are free. VC is not.

  • I don't even know exactly what an emulator is -_-

  • I have never played this game and i've been searching flea markets for it every weekend!

    I finally find it for 90 fricken dollars! O_O Is it THAT good!?

    I just bought it off Ebay for 50 bucks... this damn games never gonna be on VC is it? -_-

  • It should be coming soon. Also I hope you know how to change SNES cart batteries, because it's about time for the EB ones to be dying. It isn't hard at all though.

  • Smash bros brawl has demos for VC games now and the japanese site shows that earthbound is a demo as well which means they will have to put it on the VC!

  • damn, earthbound is one of the best games on the snes, that's for sure...

  • im ness when hes much older he turns into snake

  • hey i am ness

  • nuh uh you're solid snake you cant fool me >:O

  • This video make me want to play it again!

  • 私も♪( *´∀`*)

  • Give it time before you post, first usuemtions can be wrong.

  • Just plain ol' garbage in the trash can...

  • Now that's just offensive.

  • Wasn't meant to be - it's a line from Earthbound! The vids great imo.

  • lol awesome combination=P 5/5

  • AWESOME VIDEO

  • The combination of the music and visuals was pretty awkward, but damn, you somehow made it work; and you'd deserve a 5 star rating either way just for having the guts to pull this off.

    Good job.

    ( Lacks Giygas, though. =< )

  • he didn't show gigyas because he wanted gamers to experience this game for themselves and see gigyas for themselves

  • finding a hamburger in the trash...then taking it....? o.O

  • i love this game its my all time favorite!!

  • i still play this game once in a while. GREAT RPG!

  • best game ever!

  • I love this game!

  • same here man

  • Earthbound + Machinae Supremacy = Win

    Earthbound + Machinae Supremacy + GREAT TIMING = EPIC WIN!

  • I still play this over and over on SNES right now, lol.

  • This game had the perfect blend of challenge, humor, depth, everything that makes a great game! The characters were all so great. I actually felt for them and WANTED to help them out. Most games have characters that I can't even force myself to be interested in. And that final battle with Pokey & Giygas...LEGENDARY! Never have I seen a more powerful display of emotion than with that final battle, where Paula helps defeat Giygas simply with the power of prayer!

  • I beat it on an emulator and didn't know how to save yet..never turned off my computer and beat in in 2 weeks in summer xD

  • You were supposed to call Ness's Dad on the phone.

    ....wait. Wouldn't he have called you so often for playing too much?

  • this game was so long!!!!! it took me 3 weekends.

  • if they make a new episod for earthbound witch is now 2007 i hope they bring it to canada in the super stor for the ds and its 3d a little that would be awsome

  • they know people love the earthbound series maybe no one is good enough to make another one i am just being serious

  • they have a policy against rewarding there fans of there rpgs

  • Come to think of it, Nintendo doesn't publish any RPGs. They must have a policy against it.

  • Super Mario RPG, Paper Mario 1-2, Mario & Luigi 1-2, Mother 1-3, Fire Emblem 1-8(?). Nintendo bought Monolith Soft (makers of Xenosaga) this year.

    They've published: Dragon Warrior (NES), Final Fantasy (NES), Final Fantasy I+II (GBA), Final Fantasy IV-VI (GBA), Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles (GC) and Ring of Fates (DS), and Final Fantasy Tactics Advance (GBA). And Tales of Symphonia and Baten Kaitos in Europe.

    If they've got a policy against RPGs, they're really bad at following it.

  • Is the series popular in Japan (where RPGs are appreciated)?

  • I hate it when a great game such as Earthbound gets constantly overlooked, ignored, pushed aside, and rejected in favor of some other franchise! Why does Nintendo keep teasing us Earthbound fans with Japan-only Earthbound/Mother characters such as Lucas in Smash Bros. Brawl? When is a REAL Earthbound sequel going to appear?

  • I've played this game back when I was younger and OMG I am so nostalgic in play this game again. I wish they remade it for the DS.

    catchy video btw. I have no idea how people can make videos like this because I'm no good at computers.

  • There is a rumor which said that all three Earthbound/Mother games are coming to DS.

    A 3 in 1 game compalition!

    I wish that rumor is true, but I guess it´s just a rumor.

  • To Marx9996,

    I heard a long time ago that it was coming to Game Boy Advance! I never heard the DS rumor.

  • I see what you did thar with the countdown at the beginning. Clever. ;)

    (When she says "8", it shows the 8th sanctuary, "7" shows the 7th, etc, for anyone else who didn't notice the first time around)

    Very well done.

  • I really hope they put Earthbound on the VC. And congrats, this video is freakin' great! My opinion of game footage with music videos is normally pretty low, but you did an excellent job synching the action!

  • I still will say it, EarthBound is probably the best RPG ever made

  • Amen.

  • this game rocks!!

  • f-ing love this game

  • funny game :) ut music is very good masu rocks :)

  • this song came out on "in the groove"

  • Maybe this game will appear in the Virtual Console!

  • beat it when i was 10 ":D

  • this is not a game it is a passion it beats halo 3 hands down lol i miss this game

  • The band Machine Supremacy uses a SidStation.

    ... Speaking of which, I tried to look up the music but I couldn't find it!!!

  • Because it's Machinae Supremacy. :) There's an A in there after the n.

  • I miss this game...i still have it but my SNES died out years ago and never got another one since :-(

  • Its alot of work but i fin love thaat game i beat it by myself when i was 10 years old im a few years old now tho but its the number 1 game in the whole world ps. i couldent beat pokey for the longest time

  • On my fave game list this is 2nd place, Right behind Rockman. It did something no game had done in 3 years.

  • I loved that game.

  • i'd be so bold as to say that this is the greatest game ever made!

    Actually it would be more correct to say that SNES made the greatest games ever made.

  • HA! Earthbound has never been so METAL before, I love it.

  • THE SINGLE GREATEST GAME EVER MADE

  • say "Fuzzy Pickles!"

  • you compare this game to chrono trigger no contest earthbound wins hands down dont do that again

  • This was a well made game, I never got around to beating it, as a kid i lost this game after becoming a robot, when i became older i got the game as a ROM, but switched PC's, so the one with EB is sitting in the dark, I have no time to play with school in the way, i miss my childhood lol

  • is this game on the virtual console? and why isnt mother 3 in america, on the ds?

  • Nintendo is fucking retarded... this is easily the greatest game of all time... i seriously don't know of any other game that compares to this shit... seriously

  • for some reason i always think this game was on PC

  • OMG OMG OMG NEW AGE RETRO HIPPIES BRUSH THEIR TEETH AND THE SHINE MAKES NESS CRY UNCONTROLABLY. HUAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! Insignificant item is traded for magic truffle. BUT WHO WOULD DO A THING LIKE THAT?!

  • I downloaded EarthBound to my coupter; it is AWESOME! I REALLY hope Mother 3 comes to America!

  • nothing

    nothing

    nothing beats earthbound

  • earthbound pwns all

    does anyone know if there is a copy of Earthbound 2 in english?
