To avoid title confusion, fans called it "EarthBound Zero".
Years later, a prototype copy surfaced and a ROM was dumped. Nintendo localized it into English in the early 1990s as "Earth Bound", but never released it. Mother (Nintendo Famicom, 1989) / "EarthBound Beginnings" (Wii U, 2015) Outside of Japan, the naming gets a little weird, kind of like how Final Fantasy titles had weird changes back in the early days. There are basically three games in the Mother series: Mother, Mother 2, and Mother 3. What do you recommend?" I've made this page to answer that question and give some suggestions to eager newcomers to the series. For more detailed instructions, please check the readme.A question I often see is, "I've never played anything in the EarthBound/Mother series but want to get into it. It should be called “Earth Bound (USA) (Proto)”. When patching, apply to an unmodified copy of the prototype ROM. Pick this if you want to keep continuity with the official release of EarthBound.
MOTHER Restored (1+2 Edition): This version has the same character, item, and location names as the MOTHER1+2 fan translation. MOTHER Restored: This version makes the names of characters, items, and locations closely match the Japanese game. Graphics that were altered in localization have also been restored, including:
The main version also makes names of characters, locations, and items more accurate to what they were originally. This allowed the fan translation to be included in its entirety. Unlike previous attempts to replace EarthBound Beginnings’ dialogue, this patch repoints virtually all of the text in the game.
The game’s script has been completely replaced with the more accurate translation done by Tomato for MOTHER1+2, including dialogue, battle text, item and enemy descriptions, and other miscellaneous text. MOTHER Restored is a patch for EarthBound Beginnings that aims to make it as faithful as possible to the Japanese version of MOTHER while keeping its gameplay improvements.
