The last mainline release was Mother 3, which was released on Game Boy Advance in 2006. The interest in Itoi's comments is driven in part by the lack of new Earthbound games over the last few years. A little later, he posted a third tweet featuring a weather map. Itoi's cryptic tweet immediately sent Nintendo fan speculation into overdrive, with some sending shots of various Earthbound characters in the snow.Īpparently taking notice, Itoi followed by quipping that he was seeing a lot of foreign language responses to his tweet, and wondering if they were especially interested in the topic of snow. If Game Boy Advance games ever come to Nintendo Switch Online, then the day may come when Mother 3 finally leaves Japan.With a Nintendo Direct set to go live in just over two hours, a series of tweets from Earthbound creator Shigesato Itoi has fans speculating on a potential announcement for the beloved series during the upcoming stream.Įarlier today, Itoi quote-tweeted the official Nintendo Direct tweet with a comment that roughly translates to, "7am, huh? Amazing. The game has now been exposed to its biggest audience yet and they can finally experience Ness' adventure for themselves.
EarthBound is known for inspiring a number of different video game creators, even with its niche status. The addition of EarthBound and EarthBound Beginnings to Nintendo Switch Online is still a big deal, especially with EarthBound Beginnings being locked to the Wii U for so long. It's odd that the February 2022 Nintendo Direct didn't feature any other announcements regarding Nintendo Switch Online, especially as fans were expecting to learn more about upcoming N64 and Sega Genesis games. This is an especially useful feature for EarthBound Beginnings, as the game is notorious for being punishingly difficult. EarthBound and EarthBound Beginnings both have save states and the ability to rewind the game. EarthBound and EarthBound Beginnings will have the same quality-of-life features as the other NES and SNES games on Nintendo Switch Online.
