Total aside, but the amazing physical design of the original Mother box deserves a mention. That solid red box with the raised golden font and earth logo for the O is so visually striking, even today. I can imagine, if it were released in the West, how much it would have stood out and grabbed my attention amongst all the other Nintendo games at Babbages or Kay-Bee.

I'm gonna be honest, I have a long history with Earthbound as a series, and it all goes back to me being maybe 12 - 13 when brawl first came to the wii. I had no idea who Ness and Lucas were, but I decided to give them a try anyway. And that's when I ended up really liking them, but never got to play the games they were from. When I found out what emulators were I decided to play Mother 1 and Earthbound first. And well, I had a blast! The story was very quirky and humorous, but it definitely knew when to buckle down and get serious, and it gave me more insight to Ness as a character. When I moved onto Mother 3, thats when I was blown away by just how emotional of a game it was. Its got some very heavy real life issues in it that made me change the way I approached certain things. Overall, thanks to this, its become my favorite RPG series of all time, and jt taught me more about life than I thought.

Shigeru miyamoto only beating the game on debug mode haha that's crazy! I now know when I finally play it it will be so hard that even gaming legends couldn't do it without help of the developers haha. Fantastic video bro well bloody done!!!

This is my favourite nes game. Iā€™m still surprised Itoi and his team manage to make a game so grandiose on the nes. It may not be as loved as itā€™s sequels but mother 1 is something special.

This was the first in the series I played. It is my favorite in the series, and my favorite NES game. I moved to Japan three years ago, and then got married to the love of my life, a Japanese girl who does not speak english, and I would not be here if it wasn't for this game pushing me out of my comfort zone to learn Japanese. This game has literally changed the entire course of my life in ways the 10 year-old me huddled around a keyboard and old desktop monitor, playing the game for the first time, could never have imagined.

I played Earthbound when it first released. I rented it because of the big box. Instantly fell in love. Years later, when I learned that it was actually a sequel and a game existed on NES, I scrambled to find a way to play it. This series will always be special to me.

This was a really insightful documentary, thank you. I hope more people can see this video so they can know about how the Mother series really started and what impact it's had on the gaming industry.

Earthbound is the only game I can say I have an emotional connection too. Always reminds me of simpler times. I played it when it first released at the age of 11 with a childhood friend that is now gone. A perfect game for that adolescent age. Everything about this game sends me back to those times. Smiles and tears indeed

I always thought this game was extremely impressive for a NES game when I first played it on Wii U. Iā€™ve never played a NES game that has pulled me into its world as much as EarthBound Beginnings!

You made me cry at the beginning of this video, when you said you don't know how to describe the ways the Mother series makes you feel. I don't know how to describe the duality of bitter and sweet emotions either. I played Earthbound when I was 14, and I'm nearly 30 now. I was going through such a confusing time in my life, and I'll never forget that summer of 2006. I'm halfway through and this video is wonderful so far! Thank you.

WHY DOES THIS VIDEO ONLY HAVE 3K VIEWS. Seriously, the amount of effort and research the first 10 minutes alone must have taken is astounding. For one, you are the only person from what I can see who has ever bothered to explain what a copywriter ACTUALLY IS. Also, got to say I love the little tricks you did to make the video seem even more professional. Such as giving shadows to the gameplay window, which stopped the frame feeling flat, which tends to happen on these long retrospective videos. And then you even added a scrolling background, which again is a small thing but it just makes things so much easier to concentrate on, because you are seeing multiple types of movement, even when you are showing just basic gameplay. I know I am pointing out what you already know but I just wanted you to know I noticed it and its appreciated. I've watched a lot youtube docs with millions of views that dont even go through the effort you do. Welldone and I can only hope you get more views. novelezra used PRAY

The title "Mother" is perfect in so many ways; when you are scared or despairing, you call for mother to comfort you; and in the context of the story, who is it that gives you what you need to defeat the big bad? None other than the big bad's "mother", and it is their love for her that defeated them.
