Default MB's Video Game Classics: Earthbound

Unfortunately this falls into the category of games I wish I had played but never got to. Seems like a great time though. Can't rate unfortunately but I know a lot of people love this game to death. Well deserves I'm sure.

I've wanted to play Earthbound for a while too. It looks fascinating and hilarious. One day I'll get one of those mini SNES's that have five million games on them.

Play some of it in an emulator once. Really unique in some ways, but the high encounter rate/repetitive battles ensure I'll never want to play it again :/

It was one of those games that I knew about when i was a kid, but never really anticipated what popularity it would get. I could probably find a copy of it somewhere but emulator would probably work fine as well.

didn't finish the game due to some hilarious frustration where I died to a boss because I forgot to call my mom 5/5
I have a similar story: back when I was playing Banjo Kazooie as a kid, I had gotten everything 100% up until the last 4 notes in click clock wood. My mom had told us to go play outside and before I could finish and save, my brother turned rhe game off.

The drug addict? An early sign.

Hey man, I said I'd never played the game, hence no votes from I.
