Title: Mother 1+2 came in the mail today.

Heck yes.

Now I have Earthbound, Mother 1+2, AND Mother 3. The whole trilogy. It's awesomeness, by the way.

I'm going to just go ahead and buy an actual SNES cartridge of Earthbound here soon.

And Mother is great and all but it's just not nearly as cool as Earthbound. :'(

MOTHER 3 HOWEVER I HAVE NOT PLAYED AND I SHOULD IMPORT IT SOMETIME

Mother 3 may be the best of the series. It's absolutely perfect.

But I can't read Japanese, so I won't be able to read all the quirky little jokes and stuff that made Earthbound so great.

:(

Yeah, I know. :(

That's one disadvantage of importing quirky games. You don't get the humor.

Fortunately, though, Mother 3 is very well animated and has a lot of emotion in just the movements the characters make. You can tell what's going on without reading, but you still can't read the jokes.

I don't know if it's worth it, then.  :'(

If it's never released here (which is likely), then I may eventually import it, but right now it just doesn't seem worth it.

From what I've read about the storyline in Mother 3, it doesn't really matter if you can't read all the jokes, because it's much more dramatic than either of the other two. The translation patch is almost done, but I'm not sure how to apply that to the game.
