<div style='font: 9pt ; text-align: left; '>Me too, one of the most underrated RPGs I've ever played (next to Panzer Saga, but that's 'cause no one can get one). This, however, was a little too juvenile for my liking</div>

Underated by Nintendo, Earthbound still has a fairly large hardcore fanbase even 10 years after its release. www.starmen.net is probably the biggest fansite for it (normally updated 3-4 times a day).

<div style='font: 12pt ; text-align: left; '>The problem with Earthbound was the marketing of it. The way they marketed it a lot of people just kind of passed it over. Then a couple years later when emulators became extremely popular they were like, oh, WAIT minute! This game rocks! It was often ranked right at the very top of rom downloads on various sites.

I still am hoping that there will be another release of the game here in North America 1&2 hasn't been released because the Japanese somehow have the idea that North Americans don't want games that have adult themes in them and they don't know if they want to invest that much into a translation; I don't think many people here give a crap about adult themes in videogames besides the PTC and other angry bitch women groups like that. Just release the game here already! Earthbound 64 might very well make its way to the DS, and the official Earthbound 2 we'll know around Christmas time or January, since that's about the time it will be released in Japan.</div>

I really miss Earthbound, I hope NoA would hurry the hell up! Too bad Howard Lincoln isn't the president anymore, he would SO get a zip gun in the mail otherwise!

I play Earthbound at least once every year, usually more. Plus my signature here for like 3 years was Earthbound related =P

How can you possibly dream of saying that there is a bigger Earthbound fan than me?!

Well, actually there are, just go to this site www.starmen.net

On this board, no =)

Im well aware of starmen.net.

At the moment Im working on getting the Kings Sword for Poo for my save file from this quarter.

I could play the game end to end without stopping if my body was physically capabe of doing so.

And if you will refer to this thread:

viewtopic.php?p=88164&highlight=#88164

You clearly see that I rank Earthbound more times than you, and in two higher spots!!! I don't care if that list is in order or not. You didn't think of Earthbound first, too bad.

Some Earthbound fan you are...

It is not incredibly difficult to get, and I think the guide (that came with the game) is innacurate, it says 1/255, but I think it is more like 1/50 or 1/75.

I'll get it on my first Wii playthrough of the game, and if they actually do have online stat tracking, it will be there for all of you to see =)

I don't have any emulator saves, I play the game on SNES the way it was meant to be played =)

I carry a bat and I beat dogs, cops, and gang members with it.

AS long as you're only hitting Crooked Cops and Over Zealous Cops, that's fine. Otherwise, bad form!
