How much do you want to be Nintendo will just buy the translation and market it nationwide?  ::)

Regardless, I'm looking forward to it.

I don't particularly care for RPG's, and since I have no idea how to do ROM's, patches, etc. I can't really get it.
However, I'm sure this will happen:
1. Starman.net will release the patch to much fanfare and happiness
2. After doing nothing during their production, Nintendo will cry foul and whine and moan about pirating when they're to blame to begin with
3. Since most gamers have some kind of common sense, Nintendo will either be forced to release an english port or back off

They said they didn't care like four or five times during the translation, but I don't think they know people are using patched roms to play it, which could draw some trouble once it is realized.

You just don't mess with the Mother Series.

I've never played Earthbound before. Plus I'm not very smart with ROMs and all that.

And is it Mother or Earthbound? People call it both.
YEAH

It's MOTHER...or in Japan.
Mother 2 was brought over as Earthbound for the SNES, but did horrible in sales so Nintendo will never release another game over here again cuz it's all about money for them.

They could have at least done an online/Nintendo World store thing like they did with Electroplankton...

Still, I'm betting that they are either going to do one of these three things when the patch comes out.

1. Complain and threaten to sue, which will cause much e-drama but will blow over.
2. Buy/steal the translation and market it.
3. Do nothing.

I like the idea of buying the translation. Nintendo could simply place it on WiiWare and Market it as EarthBound 2. Genius.

But isn't that a lot of information to put in a Wii Channel?

It's a GBA game, it doesn't take up much.
