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 »

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 »

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 »

RyukaValis recently posted on the Starmen.Net forums a cheat code for MOTHER 3 that causes some interesting things to happen: If you enter 32004860 00:30 you’ll somehow make sprites randomly appear every time you enter a new area or go to Goods/Status/PSI, but the interesting thing is, you can find a LOT of unused sprites and items as well as dummy characters AND fully playable characters(who ha...Read More »

I stumbled upon this EarthBound video randomly the other day: I don’t know why, but I like little glitches like this in EarthBound. I don’t think I’ve ever had this sort of thing happen to me, but I wonder if it’s common in other parts of the game too, or even in MOTHER 3. Anyone else run into this kind of thing? ...Read More »

Raymond says: Good day, reader. I was playing Earthbound on my emulator, and I stumbled upon a little bug in Mr. Carpainter’s place. I accidentally pressed “Talk to” on a gift before I fought Mr. Carpainter, and the message box said, “There’s no response,” as if you were talking to one of the Happyists in the worship. Right after I fought Carpainter, I tried to ...Read More »

Miles sent this in the other day: Nothing too major or anything, but I came across a glitch I hadn’t heard anything about before. In Threed, after staying in the hotel, I walked out into the room where the bellboy offers the newspaper. Using the For Sale sign cause a customer to appear as usual. Upon the completion of the sale or choosing not to sell something, the customer vanished instead ...Read More »

There’s always a ton of new stuff to find in MOTHER 3 – in terms of size, it’s packed with almost 11 times as much data as EarthBound was. I think we’ll be discovering new stuff for years, if not decades to come. I recently came across some new stuff on some Japanese sites, so I’ll share it with English-speakers now! It’s nothing special, but after you beat the...Read More »

Checopoco sent in another picture of a MOTHER 1 tip that was probably from some Japanese magazine of some sort. It’s blurry as heck, but I can tell what it’s talking about: Basically, in Valentine/Ellay, there are gang members walking around, who, if you talk to them, will fight you. But they don’t disappear after you beat them, so you can keep talking to them over and over. The...Read More »

Recently, Checopoco sent me this: I had found a strenge piece of paper that came with my mother card,it looks like a cut from famitsu but I dont know what the heck is It turns out it’s a clipping from something, and includes a neat little bug/trick that I’ve never heard of. It’s a pretty fuzzy pic, but what I get out of it is this: Get Pippi in your party Give her Bread Turn it...Read More »
