Proof that the SNES era had amazing music.
-Castlevania and Super Metroid did amazing with the ambiance and horror elements in their music.
-Chrono Trigger and Starfox gave a sense of adventure and excitement in their tunes.
-Mario had simple but really amazing music. Same with his friend Yoshi.
-Final Fantasy emersed us in a world of fantasy and magic, with their renaissance music.
-Donkey Kong had the tribal and tropical themes of the jungles
And finally, Earthbound showed Adventure, Friendship and childhood in their music.
And how we need to grow up some day.

In my eyes, there is no piece of media better than Mother. This trilogy has great gameplay and mechanics (with the exception of the frustration inducing first game), amazing story and pacing, memorable characters (even if some of them do come off as flat), off the charts humor, and serious emotion from the incredible soundscores and storytelling that occasionally made me actually cry.

In Earthbound, a young boy and his friends are tasked with defending the planet, and possibly the galaxy, from being destroyed by the evil Giygas. They travel through many lands, and through time, to eventually dive deep into the womb of a Mother's child-bearing organs to defeat the evil being in utero. In theory, this should be too much for a young, baseball loving kid to take. But he has no choice. And so he has to move forward, despite the terrors brought by new lands and new faces.
But what keeps him going? Fundamentally, it is his friends, his Father, and his Mother. Without friends, he cannot be revived in time to recover from a mortal wound, or ever hope to defeat his enemies. Without his Father, he would have no one to record where he has been, and where he is going. And if he doesnt talk to his Mother once in a while, he will suffer further peril while standing up to his foes, distracted even in the face of mortal danger.
I'm 24 now, and my view of life is very different to how i saw it even a year ago. And i see it in the eyes of my friends too. They may barely comprehend it, but they help me take on life when i feel that i cant handle it. And my Father makes sure i know where I'm going, and how my life and career will move me forward. And though i don't get to see my Mother often, she sends me short messages online to keep up with how i am doing.
We are not literally travelling through time to defeat an evil tyrant found in the womb of an incomprehendable entity. But surely we all feel an impossible, terrifying task has been placed on our shoulders? Sometimes we may think we can move forward without our Father, Mother, or friends, but are we really able to take on the obstacles of life without them, or at least, without the spirit of them?
Life feels like it sucks right now. But i listen to this music, and i think of the people i love, and it fills me with a feeling that everything is going to be ok. And soon, it will turn into Determination.

With all of these Nintendo soundtracks being taken down across YouTube, I wanted to write to whoever uploaded this to say thank you for uploading this. I've been using this very video as study music since 2019 and it's brought me a lot of peace, all since my first year of secondary/high school. I'm nearly finished school, and am about to go into to the real world, so to speak, but this video has helped me throughout it. I owe the times I did well in a exam to this video, for multiple cases. If this is taken down, then I'm glad I left this comment thanking you, at least.

It's incredible: I've only finished EarthBound and i'm crazy to play Mother 1 and 3, and yet when i hear the songs from both games i haven't played, especially from Mother 3's tracks, i get this mixed sense of deja vu + nostalgia: Like i heard that before, and it fills something inside of me with hapiness that i can't quite describe, just... cry
