Mother 3 Translation RELEASED!

[War]

"After almost two years of hard slog, Starmen.net's Mother 3 fan translation patch has finally been completed, and will be released at the end of this week ... a whole month ahead of schedule! That's according to the latest blog entry on the project's site, in which team member Mato records that, "Testing's pretty much over now. Some bugs did turn up over the last few days, but they were all minor and quickly remedied. Some really hard-to-spot typos were also found and fixed."

Joyous news indeed, though the patch will require a few other things before it's of any use: namely a slot-2 flashcart, a GBA emulator, and -- cough -- an entirely unauthorized ROM copy of the Japanese game. While we don't condone piracy, a western localization of Mother 3 doesn't exactly look likely at this stage, and we do support such passionate projects. Hit up this FAQ to learn more, and don't forget to check out some beautiful, Anglicized Mother 3 screens."

Then I can get this game and see what the fuss is about

 

[RupeeClock]

Good thing I beat the game 2 years ago, it was in japanese so I won't remember very much.

i like the part where he says "was counting on some gbatemp people to help provide a detailed guide about flash carts/cards, but it looks like it’s not going to happen." i never saw a post asking for help. i would have gladly typed of a 20min guide to gba flash linkers, and flash kits.

We don't know yet. We will in a week.

 

[Shinji]

dsfanboy. . .source? XD

this is how I'll be playing it when it comes out (pics from the Mother 3 blog)

Maybe with a little less red, a little more black.


Side note: how can i get this to play on my PAL R4

haha!

 

[Ferrariman]

I will most likely buy a new 3-in-1 to try this, so I don't have to play it on a PC emulator. 0.5 inch pixels suck.

 

[Avalyn]

what can I say. OMG. now I'm sorry I sold my psp, which I was using for GBA emulation. need to get a slot-2 solution for my ds. any suggestions? been looking at the ez-flash 3 in 1. seems good?!

 

[Jax]

I just hope this isn't a grinding RPG...

 

[War]

Shinji, whaddaya mean? What's wrong with DSfanboy? I also posted a link to the blog, which says that it will be released in a week. (So they're not making this up)

I just hope this isn't a grinding RPG...

Too bad it is.

 

[LufianGuy]

I can't wait, my slot-2 device is still good for GBA.

 

[Deleted member 67270]

I'm still playing Secret of Evermore and Namco X Capcom. Now I gotta juggle 4 games when this and Star Ocean: First Departure comes out D: .

Too bad it is.

Yay!!
I like grinding RPGs...

And I'd kill for that faceplate for Micro (Mother 3)....It has great color combination..
Do you know maybe where could it be found and bought?

I think it's a limited edition Gameboy Micro.

 

[Toni Plutonij]

I know it's a limited edition....but maybe there are some faceplates to be found around.....I don't know.....It looks too good to me!!

I mean, it doesn't hurt to ask..

 

[Heran Bago]

I have been debating what to play this on. NDS? Wii VBA? Laptop VBA? PSP?

I've finally decided: I'm busting out the old GBA:SP and X-ROM 512.


*removed*

 

[silent sniper]

I WANT IT =D


but my EZ 3in1 broke

 

[JPH]

Yeah, definitely use the trusty ol' equipment, Heran Bago.

I'm really excited for this! I've been playing EarthBound since I was eight, ready for something new hehe.
