The grey mudmen things reminded me of Starman, at least a bit. The barrier trio also have a weird mark on their chests that reminds of the ones on Starman's.
But yeah, it kind of made sense though since Starmen were at Gyiyg's service, not Porky's.

Lloyd can use flamethrowers and laserbeams, and the first thing he does after he joins Ninten is create an explosive that destroys a classroom, then he launches a giant rocket bomb that blows up more stuff, and after that he has this awesome moment where he saves Ninten from a hopeless battle by showing up with a tank to blow up a giant, unkillable death robot.

I don't remember what I named favourite thing or food my first play through. Probably something retarded like 'pooping' or the like for thing and 'Lumpia' for food. I was a weird 12 year old.
Every playthrough since, it's been BOOOM! for thing and 'food' for food. Notice that 'food' is not capitalised. It's because I hate that when it's in the middle of a sentence, it's written with an uppercase letter otherwise. With the lowercase, it fucks up the guy in Moonside who says he hates [favourite food] cuz he starts a sentence with it. I put in 'FOOD' once in allcaps but it looked like Ness' mom had Tourette's.

it is. I abused Eve's OP nature when I got her to grind my characters up to somewhere around level 40, which was very tedious and most likely unnecessary, but it was my first time playing through it and didn't want to take chances. I'll probably be more lenient whenever I play through it again.
I still love Mother 1/EarthBound Beginnings though. The atmosphere was never really replicated, not even by EarthBound. In the end, after playing all three, I feel each of the games are good for their own reasons, and can't really be compared. But that's just me.

I prefer the original localization. I like the town names more, and a lot of lines in Tomato's translation feel like they were ripped straight from EarthBound's official translation, like calling your dad for example. Maybe the japanese lines were identical? idk.

Even with other humans flat out trying to kill him at times, Ness never went that far. Yeah sure he unleashed Giygas on him, but he had to fight Giygas either way and Pokey was clearly driven mad by Giygas at the time. If after all of the bullshit Pokey did before Magicant made Ness still think he was redeemable, and Ness knows that the Mani Mani statue fucks over your mind hard, it's more likely to assume that Ness would beat Pokey up to get sense into him, but not kill him. He's a good kid. Plus Paula, Jeff, and Poo seemed pretty unfazed by Giygas after their fight, Ness probably felt the same. They've been though enough shit on their adventure to be hardened enough that Giygas didn't didn't completely traumatize them. You have to be really fucking hardcore to let your soul be put into a robot without even knowing if it's reversible.

That health is only 11+ away from the health growths that Teddy and Pippi have. That's not even mentioning the stat growths that some characters excel better in than most. Some of those stat growths that these characters excel in may not be a desirable stat like Wisdom. Ninten is the most balanced, Ana is weak in Fight, which affects her Offense, and Strength; but good in Wisdom and Force. Lloyd has the lowest Defense due to his shit speed, but excels even better than Ana in Wisdom.

Well, Wisdom increases the chance of hitting with status ailments with items like Flashdark; it also decreases the chance of getting affected by a status ailment.
Mt. Itoi has a few enemies that can instant-win the battle against you that use status ailments, none of which appear in the final major area in the game. So, Titanians, Gargoyles, OhMooks, and Mooks have a harder time making Lloyd go to sleep, paralyze, or stone. All in all, a useless stat.

well, its a stretch but here goes; kuma has ness's courage and his resilience, and has paula's PSI powers along with her own special PSI. so, the conclusion is that ness and paula had kumatora, then had to use one of jeffs time machines to send her to the only safe place when the world went to shit like leder described. and they just so happened to send her to the islands 13 years before the events of the game took place.

i feel like many people didnt get to fully experience Mother 3's rhythm combos due to playing on an emulator. the battles are much more 'fun' than the other two games with the combos intact imo.
mother 3 also had a much more serious and dramatic story, whilst simultaneously going overboard with 'quirkyness' at times... I'm torn on whether 2 or 3 is my favourite, I think its best to just say I love this fucking series so much

Does else anyone hold 3 as their favorite? I find most people here like the deeper lore and 'fill-in-the-blank' part of it that Mother 1 and 2 offer. Mother 3 has the mature undertones and an explosive finale, but they never hide it so it kinda removes some of that mystery uncovering bonus you get in discussions and playthroughs.
It's ok to have it as your favorite of course though. Story is very good and it's arguably the most emotional of the trio.

>> No.5031205

>>5031176
assuming it plays the same as my japanese cart, i'd say so. theres no input lag so you can actually tap along to the beat. there are hundred or so of different battle theme variations to throw you off slightly, making it fun to figure out the new pattern. this was obviously always meant to be a key feature of the game and its a shame that many missed out due to emulation killing it.

>>5031189
it was my favourite until i gave earthbound a real playthrough, now like i say i'm torn. the story is undoubtedly the best of the series though; it's like the early ghibli movies (nature and tradition vs technology and progression, for lack of a better summary) and all the characters feel like an important part of the community

I've played the game both on emulator and oiginal cart on my GBA micro, and while yes, on the original cart pulling the combos was easier and more consistent, I still could pull some 16-hit combos on the emulator quite a few times. But I don't think the combo system is really required to play through the game. Each additional hit only represents 1 HP, so it means you can add a total of 16 HP per character. Earlier in the game it might be useful to pull combos, I remember pulling a 16-hit one for the ghost boss and it helped beat him on the brink of death, but later in the game, enemies are so strong that it's not really a big difference if you take 16 extra HP points from them or not.
You can play through the game without using the combo system. Combos help but aren't really vital to beat the game.

Am I remembering wrong? I'm pretty sure that's how it was, the first strike would make a considerable amount (like a normal physical attack), but then the consequent hits would just be 1 HP at a time.

Okay cool, but there's a difference between casually sharing your own experiences and picking arguments over them (while getting assblasted over people not using the phone "like an idiot") even after being told the truth.
Or, by "it did when i played through" did you actually mean "i thought it did because of my playthrough"? Because that's not the same thing, the former implies you still thought you were right.
This is reminding me of "works on my machine"-posters.

i hope the rumored Giygas stage is just one boss but i love to see Porky in his debut design again.

what would Ninten be other than a Ness echo? I think now that echoes are a thing, there's no way they'd do regular clones anymore.

most likely an echo
since PK Beam is just a reskinned PK Fire in Smash (see: Starman), i think that's gonna be one the notable minor difference to who he's echoing from
other ideas is Brainshock being an echoed PK Flash, PSI Magnet being PowerShield, or he gets Villager's Slingshot aerials, 4D Slip for dodges, and the Boomerang item for his basic attacks.

Well there's evidence for Ninten at least, which I'm really psyched about.
The filenames for each update in the Smash Japan website have gone in numerical order over time (we are around number 140 now). There are 3 groups of times in which numbers have been skipped though. Several numbers were skipped at the beginning, likely because the website was being set up and getting flooded with tons of updates, recently because of the direct, and one time where there's this mysterious, unexplained gap after Ness. I don't want to get my hopes up too high but it is rather strange.
