Recently I decided to start learning the C# programming language since I’m way behind the times and only program in C anymore. So to kick off my foray into the language, I started by doing some EarthBound hacking with it! What I’ve done is “reshuffle” lots of stuff in the game and introduced a lot of random changes too, with stats, actions, and more. A few days ago I showed...Read More »

There are sentry robots in the Monotoli Building in EarthBound, and usually there are some you can’t avoid getting into battle with. It turns out that if you use Skip Sandwiches and time things just right, you CAN get past them! The video above was done using some hackery to jump straight to that portion of the game without having to play through everything, that’s why Jeff isn’...Read More »

JRokujuushi recently sent this in: I recently started uploading my music and arrangements to YouTube, and one of the arrangements was a mix of the first part of the Giygas fight and the Natural Killer Cyborg fight. I thought the site visitors might enjoy it. Check it out here: I wasn’t sure how well they’d mesh, but it worked out surprisingly well ...Read More »

I often get e-mails from people who’ve e-mailed Nintendo asking about EarthBound/MOTHER stuff, so I figure it’s about time to post something about it Alexander e-mailed me the other day with this: Hi EarthBound Central! I just recently asked the Nintendo Support team if Mother or Earthbound was going to be released at VC, and I pointed out that no other company has been sued for usin...Read More »

For some reason, dying in EarthBound is sometimes glitchy, as we’ve seen in past posts. Here’s another glitch that can apparently happen somehow: Off the top of my head, here’s another dying glitch: Simultaneous defeat glitch If you’ve run into any weird stuff like this before, let me know! I love hearing about how people make games screw up without trying ...Read More »

A Swedish EarthBound fan by the name of Anders recently sent me a big ol’ PDF file containing scans of magazines that covered EarthBound and EarthBound-related stuff. Here’s what Anders says: The first two pages contain a (US import) review of Earthbound from the magazine Super POWER, #11 1995. [...] A two-reviewer system was used and, as can be seen in the two boxes left of the final ...Read More »

OKeijiDragon pointed out to me that a Laserdisc version of a Super Famicom preview collection is currently for sale on eBay here. (click for more info/pics) What’s interesting about this is that it has the MOTHER 2 preview video on it – I subbed it a while back: That was taken from a VHS version, but with the above Laserdisc version, it’d be possible to get a much cleaner-looki...Read More »

There’s a trick in MOTHER 2 (and probably EarthBound, but I haven’t tested it) that allows Ness to go through most of the game still in his pajamas! Here’s a Japanese video of it in action: (click to view video) Basically, the trick works like this: You’ll need to prepare two save files. One at the very start of the game where Ness is still in his pajamas and one at a poi...Read More »
