    earthbound sold like 2 copies in north america so nintendo didn't see the point in localizing Mother 3 when the GBA was already dead

      Wasn't the western release also plagued with being some deluxe bundles of the game a strategy guide and a third thing for like 200 bucks and there was no game only option.

        Mother 1/2 had music references and motifs in there too, did those run into any problems? I know one of The Beach Boys is notoriously litigious

          Those ones are much looser and they kinda got lucky on some of them. They can be considered homage while Mother 3 uses samples without permission. They can get away with it in Japan because of how their judicial system is, but in America, it'd get torn apart. Nintendo likely doesn't think it's worth it to pay all that money just to localize a nearly 20 year old game

        This. The music industry is a fricking copyright hellhole, and you don't even have to actually copy from another song to get sued AND LOSE.

    Earthbound was a flop in the West and Mother 3 was such a fricking nightmare to develop that they just wanted it done with. And what do you mean they don't give a frick? What do you want them to do with it? The story is done, the world ended

        Remember that "Pewdiepie vs. T-Series" thing that was all over the Internet some years ago? It was a race to be the #1 most subscribed channel on YouTube, and the reason why T-Series grew so large so quickly (and ended up winning) was because smartphones sold in India came pre-packaged with YouTube accounts subscribed to it (it's basically Indian VEVO). That was not just a measurement of YouTube subscription counts, that tally was the country of India being introduced to the Internet in real time

    Mother concluded, it's done. The games are fine as is and other than a localization, you can easily play it within a few seconds of an online search. No, Mother doesn't need a claymation remake or some HD remaster either.

    Who the frick cares what Nintendo does? For the last 16 years there's been a free English translation that doesn't have gay ass censorship or a shitty online service required to play
