    I'm really hoping for it to appear on the wii VC, since I've lost my actual copy a while back, and I would love to replay it.

    I'm pretty sure that it's coming. At least according to the ESRB.

    This was my first RPG and I hated it. Still do, actually. If the official strategy guide that came with the game says I need to do multiple runs on a map to get through it, then I'm out. It was just too tedious.

    I'm in the mood for fuzzy pickles now.

    I truly hate most RPGs, but there's something about Earthbound... I just can't get enough.  We need to introduce this amazing game to all the Wii owners who never experienced this game before.

    That's unfortunate... I loved it.

    I remember the manual being thick as hell. That was so awesome.

    This is definitely one of my favourite games of all time, and that's exactly why I still have it and still play every now and then.

    I would highly suggest you finish this game. I remember the first time I finished it when I was younger, that ending made a major impression on me, it was surreal. It may not hold up to today's standards in terms of story endings but still, I remember being so bummed that the game ended at all, I just wanted it to keep going. We've been waiting WAY too long for mother 3, I just hope the translation will be done soon. I sill have the original cartridge and manual for this game and play it through every year or 2, I just can't get enough of it. I too, had it on my PSP emulator. That game taunts me.
