I'm a huge Mother fan 
, but I never played the NES Mother until now (I'm up to Magicant). I always figured NES RPGs would be too archaic for me to enjoy, but I'm having a great time. The dialogue is just as weird and silly as Earthbound and Mother 3. I love that there is an enemy that is literally just a farmer called Wally.
This is suprisingly good for a game that is literally older than me.
Holy shit I get to experience a Mother game for the first time again. 
I played a fan-translated rom called Earthbound Zero
I don't think it was translated very well because they stuck in a lot of unnecessary cursing and off-color jokes
An official translation is on the switch online
I'm just gonna see if I can find a
copy
Yeah I'm sure there's a rom of it somewhere. The official translation is called Earthbound Beginnings and was first released on the WiiU, so no doubt someone has ripped it.
