When they are readily available to subscribersm it will give tons more players an easy way to finally experience one of the most talked-about and highly praised Japanese role-playing games out there. It isn’t all bad though, as the EarthBound titles have been some of the most requested omissions of the Nintendo Switch Online service.
Many saw this as a tease of a possible new installment to the franchise or an official release of Mother 3. This announcement may come as a bit of a disappointment to many, as series creator, Shigesato Itoi gave a subtle hint earlier today about the reveal. Unlike on that console, the titles won’t be available for purchase alone through a Virtual Console store, but are exclusively playable through Nintendo Switch Online. Plus, anything that might boost up the demand for a Mother 3 port is a good thing.EarthBound and EarthBound Beginnings made their last official showings on Nintendo consoles with the previous generation’s Wii U. Now that it’s on Switch, there’s one more easy way to play it. The off-beat RPG about four kids braving the world and trekking through a comical, psychic power-infused journey has stood out over the years. I almost want to print this out, hole-punch it and stick it in a binder.ĮarthBound has Nintendo Switch Online subscribers excited for a reason, after all. There’s an appeal to it, a reminder of a time when large guides for deep RPGs were more common. There are fun little asides like the Onett Times sections, and little notes on different parts of the guide.
It’s got a lot of style and charm to it, befitting the game it’s walking players through.
It’s basically a handy guide to everything EarthBound, available in PDF form.Įven if you’re not currently playing the classic RPG, the guide is interesting enough as a tome of game knowledge. There are also guides and charts for weapons, food, condiments, Psi, and more. At 135 pages long, it tracks the whole adventure from Onett on through the final battle. The player’s guide is not just a manual for EarthBound, but a pretty comprehensive guide to the whole game.
