Earthbound rated for the Virtual Console by ESRB
May 19th, 2008If this were thirteen years ago, you’d get a perfect idea of what this blog was for. However, thanks to the Virtual Console, I can give this game a chance to post about in the present.
EarthBound was a game for the Super Nintendo that went far outside the bounds of a normal RPG for its time. These radical changes include teenage kids fighting possessed cars and hippies, and not in the sense of “like a normal game but with kids as characters!!!11″. If only this game had been advertised and received better, it would have had its sequel, Mother 3, released in America.
If you have no idea what EarthBound is, or would like to get a better idea of it, head over to Starmen.Net’s page on it, which also has information on other games in the series, as well as a devoted community that continues to reel in fan art, and other contribution.
