There Will Never Be Another Earthbound
Nintendo never wanted to make Earthbound, but thankfully someone did. That doesn't mean it was easy though

The Zelda timeline splitting in Ocarina of Time has done a so much with the lore of the series, including giving us two alternate versions of Ganondorf both ending up different, yet still the same.

Wind Waker Randomizer Basic Tricks and Tips Tutorial/Guide
God I love this video so much. I’m so glad other people see what I have seen in Midna since I first played the game. She’s amazing. ❤
I know this video is over a year old but imma still comment this. Superswimming is not hard, manual super swim and unbuffered are what are hard because you can’t use the wind waker. It took me a week to get manual super swim and TWO MONTHS to get unbuffered
You're 100% right. I gave up on UMSS because I kept getting the worst blisters on my hands and I've only ever hit buffered in HD like 5x. It's no joke
Maybe dk jr grew up and dropped the jr?
Fair logic, but in the DKC games, they allude to Kranky Kong being the original DK and make it clear that the DK in country and all subsequent entries is Kranky's grandson.
My top 10 Zelda characters of all time: 🙏🛡️ #10 Navi #9 Ghirahim #8 Zant #7 Fi #6 Revali #5 Groose #4 Urbosa #3 Impa #2 Sheik #1 Midna
Solid list, but Navi is just too high imo
Why can't they just add a setting for it???????
I've been wondering the same exact thing
Phantoon is my favorite boss in the game. Such a cool concept… he’s also my all time favorite Metroid character… my headcannon is that he’s a chozodian creation who was in charge of Their transportation and when mother brain went rogue she took over phantoon (who may have originally been a benevolent being) at least he’s not as evil as the other villains… his super Metroid appearance always looked benevolent to me (unlike his other m cameo)… regardless he was under mother brains control and crashed the ship… killing the crew. He’s actually based after a chambered nautilus (a type of cephalopod with a hard shell) unlike a squid which is all exposed flesh.
I always interpreted Zelda vanishing after healing Midna as her transferring her triforce piece to Midna the only thing that is keeping her corporeal in the twilight shrouded castle. I see her vanishing as her becoming just like every hylian turned spirit and this makes her vulnerable enough that Ganondorf is able to pull her to the throne room as his trophy. Rather than just vanishing into nothingness and supposedly dying.
As lefty as myself, i've always found it interesting to find characters in gaming that are left-handed and Link was one of them. Unfortunately, BOTW and its sequel decided to change Link's handedness and while it didn't stop me from loving those games, i find that change disappointing. Link was one of the rare examples of left-handed heroes we saw in gaming It irritates me that most left-handed characters in games are depicted as either traitors or straight up evil like Goro Akechi from Persona 5 for example
The last part of your comment piqued my interest as I hadn't caught onto that trend! I do know that in certain religions, left handedness is a sign of corruption and in some societies using your left hand is taboo even to this day. I don't know of any of those connections in Japanese cultures or faiths, but I wouldn't be surprised if it played a role in those characters dexterousness!
@@RuztyNails33 I heard some part of Japan has culture of always eating with your right hand, but i'm not sure if it applies to all Japan. Yes, Left-handedness was believed to be corruption in medieval times and Latin it translates to Sinister. It also didn't help that during 19th century when there was serial killer named Jack the Ripper, who was believed to be left-handed, which led to the people theorizing that left-handed people were more likely to commit crimes and murders until that theory was proven wrong as Jack the Ripper was actually right-handed. I'm not sure if Goro Akechi's character was inspired by early beliefs of Jack the Ripper, but i wouldn't be surprised if it did.
I love all this stuff, thanks for your insights!
@@RuztyNails33 You are welcome :) Keep up with amazing videos 🙏👍🙂😎
@@RuztyNails33 I forgot to mention that i'm not saying all left-handed characters in gaming are evil as there are also good guy lefties like Link. However, it's often used trope that left handed character in the party turns out to be the villain Oddly enough in case of Final Fantasy 4 that two left handed characters(Kain and Golbez) in that game were subversion of the trope. They appear to betray the hero and become evil, but they were actually mind controlled and are actually good people in general.
I’m pretty sure that every single president of the USA there has been is left-handed.
I just checked Wikipedia and it's lists 7/45, so about 15%. That being said, 6 of them were post war, so following FDR 6/14 have been lefties. It's an incredibly limited sample, but it supports the theory that while we know at least 1/10 people are left handed it's probably closer to 25-35%. Thanks for sending me down this little rabbit hole!
i feel if the build for earthbound 64 was leaked i think a lot of old fans would come together and bring the hype back for the earthbound series (i mean there is a recreation thats been in development for a while but a break through to the actual game would make history imo)
I'm genuinely curious how much of it was actually done. Miyamoto, Itoi and Iwata said that it was almost there but they were essentially having problems with the last mile. It was probably ieft as a buggy unstable mess
In the desperate hour, Midna almost dies for you... but during the final stage when she fights Ganon alone, she ACTUALLY dies for you. It doesn't matter if she gets brought back post fight, in that moment she is actually killed after sending Link and Zelda to safety. That sacrifice doesn't go away.
Its tragic that we cant choose to make him left handed.... I would even buy an amiibo just for this because i am left handed
If they paywall left handedness I will puke
@@RuztyNails33 it's a corporation, I am not holding my breath on it being a free feature
Watching this as a left handed blonde dude... 👀
Thank you SO much for pointing out how when Nintendo designed OOT Link to be "handsome," it definitely made him less relatable to players. I have always noticed this, but you're the first other person I have seen bring this up! Also, as an Arab-American fan of Zelda, I've always had mixed feelings about the Gerudo race, but love Urbosa and Riju as characters and do agree that they are a step in the right direction for representation. Great video!
I'm glad you enjoyed it!
Man that was such a great video! I always knew the Mother series has had a tumultuous development history, but I didn't know it was this bad at times! So have you played Mother 1 and Earthbound? If so, how have you not been driven enough to play the fan translated Mother 3?!
I played Earthbound, but I haven't finished beginnings. In all honestly I rarely play games on my PC so I tend to emulate less than ever these days. I'd love to but I don't currently have the time to play it at my desk. Hence I want it on NSO or something! Anyways, I appreciate the kind words. Thanks!
@@RuztyNails33 You're welcome! Yeah I hardly ever emulate games as well! Actually the one time I beat a game through emulation was actually when I played Earthbound for the first time, but that was on my modded PSP! That's a great way to play Mother 3 (fan translation) if you have one and can mod it. Though for Mother 3 I actually bought an actual GBA cat which has the fan translation rom on it, and just played that on my GBA. I also own the original game from Japan, so I already own it officially and figured that squares things up in that regard!
Everything about this video is absolutely wrong. It's LITTERED with very bad conjecture, misinformation, very bad research, and forced bias with no credible sources. What an awful video, be ashamed of yourself.
Pretty much all of this video includes facts which I've heard across different sources through the years. Which parts don't seem credible to you?
I used several primary sources, mostly archived interviews with the people mentioned in the video speaking about their experiences. While there is certainly a bias I don't feel ashamed of that. My information is accurate and I'm proud of my work. I will say however that I do not appreciate the belligerent nature of your comment, but the engagement is always good. So thanks, but maybe consider being less hostile in the future :)
Awesome documentary! Only thing worth to mention at 1:16: beside SMB1 the other Shigesato Itoi's love was, ofc, for Dragon Quest. The real series that inspired him to make Mother.
Thanks! I had it written in that his initial pitch was for something along the lines of "dragon quest in a contemporary setting" but it felt a bit wordy in the script and I ended up cutting it out
What's EarthBound?
Yeah, for sure for sure
I agree
Your videos are really easy to binge, I'm surprised your not a bigger channel o.o
I appreciate it!
I didn't want them to make it either, it fucking sucks
Now that's a take. You have my respect and my fear.
By all accounts I recall Tomato, the guy who translated Mother 3, stating that an anonymous email he received that purported to be from someone inside Nintendo, that the fan translation all but guarenteed the game wasn't coming to the West. But on top of that, I think many people have stated that said translation is about as close to official as you're going to get and that it's very polished. You seriously might as well just download and play it, not really sure how one could say they're a fan of a series with all but 3 games and skip out the last one.
I've never understood why we need a Mother 3 localization. If you're reading this comment, you have the means and the method to play Mother 3 in English. You've had it for a very long time now. And you will continue to have it. Mission accomplished. It's time to move on to the next thing. It's been time for a very long time now. Why can't we simply leave well enough alone and be grateful for what we have? At what point do you realize you're simply swimming upstream to achieve... what, exactly? To find the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow you've had the entire time? It just doesn't make sense.
I hear ya, but I personally disagree. I'm not saying you're wrong. I think you're right, but I prefer to play games on a console because if I'm on my computer I'm working on something and I'm awful at modding hardware. Additionally I don't know that I'd call myself a fan of the series either. I played 2, enjoyed it, and I hear 3 is incredible. That's where I stand, and I'm okay with it. If Nintendo wants me to play 3, I'll gladly jump in, but I'm not going out of my way for the fan translation. That's not to speak on it's quality or anything, it's just my personal preference
@@RuztyNails33 Then you're your own obstacle to that, that's all I'm saying.
Certainly, but there is a large population unable, unwilling, or unable to play the fan translation whereas if it dropped on NSO tomorrow, they'd be more likely to jump in. It wouldnt be for the hardcore fans, it would be for the casual ones.
@@RuztyNails33 Unable to? Don't BS me. Who doesn't have a computer these days? And not even a -strong- computer. How do you even know about Mother 3 in the first place if you don't have an internet connection? If you're not willing to play what's right there in front of you, then I'm sorry, but it's your own problem. If you haven't played Mother 3 in English, then at this point, you just don't want to. And it's fine if you don't want to. But it's also kind of on you by now, not Nintendo.
Keep this series alive, people! And for those asking, Sans is STILL NOT NESS!
Louder for the folks in the back!
SNES UNDERBOUND?!
Hell yeah another Rusty upload!
God I'm so glad MOTHER 3 exists, even if its not translated officially. That game was a whole ass experience.
Just the 1st chapter made me notice they weren't messing around with this plot. It goes HARD
@@RuztyNails33 The problem is that Mother 3 has so much copyrighted music that Nintendo could get in trouble.
This editing is really good
I appreciate it dawg

Stop! Stop! You're bringing up my trauma from the war
You dumb. This is Sans
What do you call it when Ness runs? Nesquik I’m here all week folks
Now this is what I call peak comedy
Okay.
I didn't believe Shigesato Itoi's Number 1 Bass Fishing was actually real, so I googled it and wow. Just wow.
You know what they say, a bass in the bush...
I think that game or movie characters are made for people to want to BE them, to live a fantasy, not so much Identify with them. I'll never be perfect, handsome skilled in combat, or brave, but link lets me live that fantasy. thats my experience anyway.
I agree with you there, but I'd argue that having any traits that align with said character allow you to better envision yourself being them.
@@RuztyNails33 Thats true
I remember loving Skyward sword, but being really sad that he was right handed now. I am right handed, and one of my sibs, my bro, is left handed. There def need to be more left handed or ambidextrous games--or a mode where you can play right or left handed. Edit: For motion control games.
What! What about the last boss fight after you kill the final boss?
X infected Raven Beak? That's basically just a cutscene.
I never noticed Skyward Sword's Link was ambidextrous. Which is strange, I should have noticed that considering even though I am predominantly right handed, I am ambi-leaning and prefer holding stuff like bows in the left handed fashion. Interesting...
#DisbandSmashCommunity #SmashCommunityIsTrash
I've already said it, but this doesn't only affect smash and even if it did, whether you approve of the community or not, people should have the right to play games that they've purchased with legal tender however they please. It'd be like GM saying that you're not allowed to take your Corvette on a racetrack. Sure the folks who do may be a little nuts, but it's their right.
yeah yeah its a small thing and i honestly had no business obsessing over it as I did but little did I know I discovered one of my first types of guys that I like xD All jokes aside, even though Im right handed, my kid brain that it was so cool when one of my friends pointed out Link was left handed.
You could do without stealing the switch graphic from the nontendo podcast in your thumbnail
Lmao, Wood always talks about doing literally exactly that.
It has been confirmed link in twilight princess it is not canon for him to be right handed but in botw/totk and skyward sword he is right handed and there is a theory where only the right handed welders of the master sword can only hear the spirit of Fi so skyward sword link and totk/botw link are special in that regard
I hadn't heard that theory before! That's kinda neat, but those are also just the most recent home console entries. In an attempt to make lore sense out of it, I suppose it could work, but it could also be that Fi has only existed during the era of righties.
its clear Nintendo is embarrassed of the "smash community". They're implementing all these rules to try and shut it down because no company wants to be associated with such a detestable group of humans. truth hurts
I'm personally not a fan of that scene, but I feel like people should have the right to play a video game that they purchased, with legal tender, in whatever manner they like. Even if they're considered deplorable to many.
Three inescapable things in this world: death, taxes, and Nintendo fighting the Smash community
Louder for the folks in the back
Did you really say "on Nintendo 7th," and not expect me to notice?
Gee, just call me out, why don't you 😳
I didn't.
I think I got Pikmin in 2003. I wasn't interested in it at first due to its bad marketing in all honesty. I saw it at Gamestop (I don't remember if it was right before the name change of EB games.) and decided to pick it up for roughly 15$ on sale. I've been a big fan ever since, and got the second game around my birthday in 2004.
You're the poster child of the point I'm making! 15 bucks is sick!
@@RuztyNails33 I did get that for 15 dollars yeah, but the disc case was cracked and destroyed. I believe I still have it-
the triforce symbol is taken directly from the Hojo Samurai clan, established about 1200ad and called the Three Scale Emblem because it is supposed to represent 3 dragon scales given to the clans founder by a dragon kami
That's way cooler than every other explanation out there, and there are a TON of them
I really dislike that blurb about Bloom at the beginning of the video. The games are nothing similar, I’ve played Bloom every day since launch.
I played bloom at launch for 3 months, and it was incredibly bare bones imo. Bloom made me feel like I stopped progressing after 2 months and there wasn't anything left to do but grind for variants.
@@RuztyNails33 have you played it recently? It’s the second anniversary now, that’s 21 months of new stuff you haven’t seen
I probably could jump back in and enjoy it, but I just didn't feel it was worth draining my battery so harshly. If they haven't added anything more than Pikmin variants, I don't see the value in just doing expeditions and challenges. The game doesn't make me walk any more seeing as I already take about 15k steps a day and I really don't see the value in a porduct I felt it was too repetitive.
@@RuztyNails33 they’ve added a lot more than just new decors
I'm glad they did. That game deserved better, but I've moved on from it unfortunately.
Great video! Very professional quality! Hope you blow up soon
Thanks for watching, I appreciate it!
I love the hotdog ad but seriously who tf thought that was the best way to get people to download the game?? It just made me want a hotdog!
You're right, a weiner would be nice right now
So glad you're uploading again
Me too fam
Hot dog, huh? Now that’s what I call advertising
I'd love to meet the person who had the audacity to pitch that
It's crazy what happens when something isn't marketed well. This is giving off Earthbound "This game stinks" vibes
I may or may not be diving into that in an upcoming video 👀
