MOTHER 3

[Moridam]

Sweet jesus I can't believe it's almost done. Been waiting on this a long time, I just hope Nintendo doesn't decide to pull a last minute "Fuck you!" and throw out a surprise C&D. Gonna have to figure out if there's a decent GBA emulator for OSX, don't have one of those fancy flashcards for the DS nor money for one D:

I doubt Nintendo would, they have explicitly said they have no intention of translating Mother 3. All this would do is give a game they probably don't even profit from anymore to an audience they weren't going to give it to anyway.

all depends on the nintendofans also that would spam C&D letters to nintendo about this project.

Hopefully we have no whistle blowers =\

Well, it's pretty unlikely that Nintendo is unaware of the project at this point, hell the second hit for 'Mother 3' on google brings you to their page. It also seems just as unlikely that Nintendo is going to do anything about it at this point, given how long it's been going on... but it's still technically within the realm of possibility.

This will be MINE. I'm going to have to figure out exactly what I have to do to get it (I honestly have no idea, someone post a guide for morons plz) but this and Innocent Sin = MINE. I'll even buy the Japanese version online somewhere to say I have a legit copy. I saw the Youtube video of Lucas and Boney in the Robot Tunnel/talking to people. It looked amazing, I can't believe they did it themselves.

For the interested

Since more and more people are finishing the game (and playing through again) without any new bugs, the patch could be out a bit sooner than I had thought.

Latest update from the translation team:

Testing is Swamp Bicycle

2 days, 7 hours ago by Mato
Testing is very nearly done now. I have one chapter left to go through, and the other testers are finishing up, too. I actually didn’t plan on making an update until the testing was done, but people were getting pretty antsy and there were too many comments in the last update to keep up with anymore. Luckily, no new major bugs have been found, just a typo or two and a few rare battle text lines needing fixing. They were all very simple to fix, of course.
This past week was very slow-going for me with real-life work, but pretty much everyone has stepped up to the plate in one way or another to help out. The testers are awesome and trying things I probably wouldn’t have even thought of. byuu’s been kind enough to help put the final patching program together for Windows and Linux, all while very sick. sblur’s been working on the Mac version. Jeff’s been around to answer testers’ questions. Very awesome teamwork. Send all free food and booze to them http://mother3.fobby.net/wp-includes.../icon_wink.gif
Testing will probably end in the next day or two. I still want demi to look through a few key lines to make them sound better, I set him up with all the stuff he needs for that. It will probably take him an hour or two, if he can find the time. If all goes well, there’ll be two updates left, one when everything is done and one with the patch for download.
Details about stuff will come next time.

Oh shit this week!? Yes!

[Yuri-G]

Whoa, that soon? I may have to decide between this and the three or four Shin Megami Tensei games I have laying around half-finished/not even started.

[Meian]

Where did it say this week? He just said testing will be done by then and will do some other things with it after. I'd give it up to 1-2 weeks if all goes well just to be safe.

[Meian]

Glad I was wrong
