No thanks.

You never got a chance to make a 3D Mother game.

Sup Forums fucking hates mother due to the undertale connection, the pre-existing cancerous fanbase, and the perceived lol2random humor

just stick to making good planners

I heard you guys like/have my games.
Convince me to tell you what Death Stranding will be about.

From this moment on, whenever you eat candy you will feel the satisfaction of knowing you earned it.

convince me to convince you to tell me what Death Stranding will be about

Get your own thread Kojima there can only be one westaboo nip developer at the top and that will be me M4 will be so good no one will ever remember metal gear games were ever a thing.

>nu/v/ fucking hates mother
Fixed that for you.

You want to.

You must appear on Gaki no tsuaki again.

Make one because modern days RPGs are the fucking best.

He's retired

Please don't waste your time.

The Mother games are stupid.

Don't want to, 3 was a perfect way to wrap up the series, it needs no continuation

Get your old fishing games translated yellow nigger. I want to experience the comfy but I'm too stupid to read moon runes

>there are people who actually seriously think Mother 3 left room for a sequel
Don't you fags know he confirmed years ago that Animal Crossing is the continuation of the Mother series?

>Convince me to make MOTHER 4.
Too late

Was Mother 3 left to hang by NOA because of it's themes of socialism?

That's what I became convinced of, myself.

i don't remember where i saw this, but didn't he give the developers of mother 4 the thumbs up?

He said it in an interview as a joke. I forget the source but I read through all of his M3 interviews and remember this.
Though when you consider the implications of M3's ending, it's actually just vague enough to make this joke potentially canon.
>people still think Mother 3 is just commie shit
I swear you people sometimes

I saw the vid where he said that he was playing M2 with other devs.
It fits perfectly in the canon, the world was reborn as a perfect place and furries become real.

It's heavily critical of money, the only real solution we have to our modern society.

It pretends that people get along swimmingly in its absence.

>It fits perfectly in the canon, the world was reborn as a perfect place and furries become real.
That sentence made me chuckle.

Go back to Sup Forums, you fucking idiot.

Not an argument, not him by the way.

Not an argument, am him by the way.

He okayed a fanmade Mother 4 before it happened
Basically he confirmed he'd never do it, but he wouldn't mind playing someone else's Mother 4.
As far as canon is concerned, Mother is finished. Itoi allows all interpretations of the ending because the ending can literally lead to anything.
Spoilerific explanation: The world gets reset into a "perfect" state that all of the characters are happy to be in. What this entails is up to interpretation but Animal Crossing and Smash Bros are equally plausible sequels to Mother 3.
It took a lot more than money to make Tazmily a shithole.

How about a remake of the series in full 3D.

no thanks we already have undertale okay bai

If mother 3 was communist
>money would be addressed as soon as chapter 1
>the pigmask takeover would go by faster and have less emphasis on what they do to the people and environment because those aren't the centerpiece of this hypothetical narrative
>the player wouldn't be encouraged to use or collect money
>people who use money would be heavily demonized, unlike in the current game where they still show signs of humanity and empathy to an extent
>the DCMC would be bad guys
>the chimera lab would be replaced by something more related to capitalism
>the ending would explicitly state that the perfect world doesn't have a currency system
I won't deny the potential existence of light socialist themes at points, but it's not the centerpiece, and I don't think Itoi is trying especially hard to convince anyone money is the true evil here

One of the reasons Mother 3 works so good is that the Pigmask's are not just mooks that attack you at all times. You talk to them and work in that factory, they are just dudes doing their jobs (who have to hide their face due to time travel fucking them up)

They are brainwashed by porky as well

>spoiler
Well I mean there are time travelers with normal faces all over the place
Unless we're to believe Tazmily got THAT populated in the span of 3 years

>Unless we're to believe Tazmily got THAT populated in the span of 3 years
Wait I fucked up
even that wouldn't explain it because many of the new NPCs in Chapter 4+ are adults, so those have to be time travelers

Andonuts created a new time travel machine that doesnt cause any harm

Nah he didn't, you can time travel once or twice and not get too fucked. But travel as much as Porky and you get fucked.

Wait
I thought the spider mech was a time travel machine
How did Porky get to the cave of the past in Earthbound?
Or wait, when did he even get the spider mech?
Am I missing some steps here?

Then why turn ness into robot

It is.
He contacted the aliens in the present and got the machine then travelled to the past to met with gygas.
This is all implied because we never see it.

>How did Porky get to the cave of the past in Earthbound?
Stole a phase distorter

>Or wait, when did he even get the spider mech?
He got the original one from Giygas, plus he was starting to get fucked up so his skin turned gray.

Other one at some point during the 10,000 of Porky fucking about the timeline.

>Then why turn ness into robot
My guess is phase distorter MK1 fucked you up on it's first use, but the ones Porky would have used building the army where improved models so no need to robot yourself.

>Stole a phase distorter
Oh yeah I forgot about this, disregard this post

>Stole a phase distorter
From who?
Ness and co use presumably the only one available in the present.

Ness and Co used the second one, Porky stole the first one, you see it in a wreck in the cave.

Oh that makes sense

Iwata would've wanted it.

Finally a good reason.

but he wouldn't have

If Iwata had asked him directly he would have.

Well I mean yeah maybe but that would imply Iwata would want to in the first place
>another development hell
>poor sales figures
>knows full-well the series was wrapped up
>probably knew Itoi was done with vidya
Remember that Mother 3 took ~9 years to develop if you count the very early stages where it was gonna be on SNES, and the long period of development for the N64. If Mother 4 began development back in 2006 I actually have a hard time believing it'd be out by this point in time

The anticipation is part of it, its better than having nothing
But you are right that the series is done.
Id love for nintendo to make a spiritual sequel series (that isnt pokemon)

>Convince me to make MOTHER 4.
Pay me first

you gotta pay the troll toll if you wanna talk to eggroll

I believe HAL has the rights and could technically make new games for the series. However if they have any understanding of the series the most you could realistically ask for is a new continuity reusing some of the mechanics and set-pieces of the series, but I feel like that'd be a bit disrespectful to the series legacy in a way.
The most HAL should do with the rights to Mother is remakes, a translation, and ESP ability in Kirby.
With the comment Reggie had about Mother 3 and "dormant franchises" I unironically have money riding on something happening to the series by or at E3.

Yeah as much as I love M1 it would benefit greatly from a remake.

Just make a game like Mother. I see absolutely no reason to actually make another Mother game.

For what purpose?
