Itoi also said Mother 4 is 'the lives of all the people who played the Mother games together, happening right now', or that Animal Crossing could be considered Mother 4. Itoi says many things, you don't need to take him literally.

True, but it's still wrong to assume Mother 2 is just a "reboot" of Mother 1, that's what I wanted to address. It's a sequel - you can play Mother 2 or 3 s stand alone games, but it all becomes better if you play Mother 2 knowing who Gyiyg is (other than "THE EVIL EMPEROR OF THE UNIVERSEEEE") or knowing who Porky is in Mother 3.

I like Earthbound more, but Mother 1 has a few really great standout moments. Like entering that submarine and finding EVE, the robot Ninten's grandfather built to protect him. And the whole ending sequence and last "boss" fight. For me, Earthbound > Mother > Mother 3
