Stuff, there's probably better sites though but... I give you one that is translated from the offical site.

I fear it might not be released in the western world though. Oh well, i'm hopeful.

The game seems to be about animal hybrids, according to a friend of mine it was called "Mother 3: Chimera forest" during devolopment or something like that. ;

I'd prefer an official translation than one which might take a year or two to complete if the rom's that tough to modify.

I have a funny feeling it'll come over, if only because Earthbound has enough of a cult following here. Maybe not a huge release but they could break even off it at the worst.

Hmmm... I thought this was being developed for the Nintendo 64 all those years ago before it was scrapped? Looks fun none the less.

Nice to see the third installment being released. I think the Mother series' graphics style are more suited for a 2d game than for a 3d one(as would have been the case with the cancelled N64 edition) But, is it me or the game looks a bit more cartoonish/childish in mood than the previous two games? Not that this is a bad thing.

Finally! You know, I used to visit this site pretty often, and one day a while back I noticed a big countdown until Mother 3 at the top. Right now it looks like there are *checks site* 12 days left.

I have downloaded the Rom and i can say its look very very very good!
The soundtrack is catchy and stunning for a Gba game and
graphics are a update from the snes.

I hope the game will be translated in english soon...

I go play more right now

same here, just got it...

havent played it yet though, but I noticed something right away when naming the characters, it has an english alphabet there, so I would assume that would make translating it somewhat easier.

heres a trans of some of the beginning, found it on the starmen.net forum, I didnt do it myself:

Starting a new game:

Just like Earthbound, you start off by naming all your characters, favorite food, and your special ability. The characters appear as you name them, so it’s not a problem knowing who you’re naming. Just a note that this translation will use all the default names.

Here are the names in order:
Lucas
Klaus
Flint
Hinawa
Boney
Fluffy Omelets
Love

When you name you characters, to get the default name, select the option in the bottom left corner of the screen (or select the alphabet and name them yourself). The option in the bottom right will confirm (or hit start to move there). Then you get 3 options, text speed, window flavor, and end. The bottom one is end, and you can just hit that, because the default text speed is actually quite fast (and you can speed through it so it doesn’t matter too much anyway). Anyway, here we go:

[the opening cuts to black screens with text]
Welcome to MOTHER3 world

Nowhere Island

Tatsumairi village

Beyond Teri Forest

Hinawa’s father, Alec’s house
[end black-screen cut thingy]

Klaus:
-Lucaaaaas! How long are you gonna sleep?
-Wake up! Let’s play!
-C’mon, wake up!
-Drago brought it’s baby along!
-It’s so cute! Come on!

[When you try to leave the house]
Hinawa:
-Are you planning to go out and play in your pajamas?
-Go and get dressed.
[here is your first yes-no question. The first selection (on the left) is yes, and the second is now. Simple, eh?]
[no (いいえ] – Then stay here in your pajamas all day.

[say yes(はい and get dressed, then leave the house]
[Talk to the frog]
Frog:
-A story extends only as far as one’s memory.
-Remember and memories recall each other
-and become memories.
-If you don’t record your memories, you’ll end up forgetting them.
-so
-please tell this frog your memories up till now.
-This is what humans called “saving.”
-Okay,
-*ribbit* (it’s actually “pyon” which means hop, but I like ribbit better), would you like to save?
[after you save]
Frog:
-Be careful on your journey.
-Give my regards to the next frog you meet.

[When you find Klaus]
Klaus:
-Hahahahaha! Ah, I’m worn out.
-I’ve been playing fighting with Drago and the others all day.
-Join the fun, Lucas!
-Try “ramming” Drago here.
Alec:
-Klaus!
-Lucas doesn’t know “ramming” yet.
-Lucas!
-Imagine pressing a “B-button” (I don’t wanna take the time to make this sound good)
-Press this “B-button” for a while then let go.
-With that, you should be able to do a “dash.”
-If you aim at Drago, and “dash,”
-That’s called “ramming!”
-Klaus! Demonstrate for him once.
-Yes! That’s the way to do it!
-Next is Lucas! Give it a go!
-This won’t go well if you’re lookin’ so scared.
-Remember to not be so tense.
-Okay, loosten those shoulders. Relax, relax!

[ram Drago then talk to Klaus]
Klaus:
-Drago enjoys it more the harder you hit it.
Okera:
-Outta the way, outta the way! The great Okera coming though!! (okera actually means mole cricket, but I’m keeping Okera as it’s name)
-I heard play-fighting and couldn’t keep quiet!
-I’ll take anybody any time!
-If you get in my way, you won’t get off easy!

Fighting:
Fighting is easy because the options are aided by easy-to-understand pictures. The music note is fight, the box is item, the plus is guard, and the arrow is run (there is also an ability option which will be brought up later. Ok, on to the fight

[When the fight starts] Okera has appeared

[Okera’s attacks]
-Okera does a biting attack!
[when you win you just get experience points (it’s the number, not so hard)]

Okera:
-You guys are tougher than I thought.
-I’ll accept a challenge from you guys anytime.
-Next time we meet will be at the big stadium “Okera Hall!”
-I’m looking forward to it… Bro.
Hinawa:
-I just stepped on a mole cricket. I wonder if it’s okay.
-Dinner’s ready, everyone.
-Lucas, Klaus, I made your favorite fluffy omelets.
Klaus:
-Dinner, dinner! Fluffy omelets!
Hinawa:
-You too, dad.
Alec:
-Well then,
-Everybody, it’s time to learn how to “save.”
-Talk to the frog. ….. This is “saving.”
-It’s not hard work, so talk to the frog often.
-“Saving” is a good thing.
-“Saving” is also free.
-Well, it’s time for me to return to our story.
-Heeeey! Wait for meeeee!
-You left some fluffly omelets for me, right?!

[back at home]
Klaus:
-What kind of food do you like, mama?
-What? Fluffy omelets?
-So, it’s the same as us? We get along great!
Hinawa:
-We’ll be heading home once you’re done eating.
-We’ll have to go through the forest to get home,
-So we have to head out early.
Alec:
-The kids are able to come back here by themselves sometime, aren’t they?
-Lucas, you’re alright, ain’cha? Hahahahaha!
[Hinawa goes outside]

Flint,
Just like you said, since the kids came here they’ve been running about the hills and fields without tiring.
Klaus, like always, is full of energy, and a reckless child. Lucas is still a bit sheltered, but the two of them can’t seem to stop playing. My father seems sad parting with his grandsons as he hasn’t seen them in such a long time, but we’ve decide to get home today before the evening.
It’s been awhile since I’ve breathed the fresh mountain air. It feels so good. You’re always covered with the smell of sheep in Tatsumairi Village; It’d be nice if you could get some of this fresh air, too.
Next time we come here, we should leave the sheep with the neighbors and come together as a family. Klaus, Lucas, and I always thinking about you. When we get back tonight, I’ll make the best fluffy omelets I can for you.
Yours and you children’s,
Hinawa

[little cutscene]

Chapter 1
The Mournful Night

Thomas:
-Flint! Flint! Flint!
-Fire, fire, and more fire!
-Teri Forest is going up in blazes, and fast!
[take control of flint. Go to the door]
Thomas:
-Things will be disastrous if we don’t hurry, Flint!
-The forest, the woods, the trees! It’s forest-fire central!
-Jeez!
-Why did this happen in our peaceful little Tatsumairi Village?
-You’re door’s locked, Flint!
-Ack!
-The doorknob…!
-Why did it have to break off at a time like this?!
[flint comes out]
-Ah, Doorknob! I mean, Flint! This is now time for dilly-dallying!
-Teri Forest is up in flames!
-A time like this is just the time for a reckless, nice-guy type like yourself, wouldn’t you say?
-Please come, Flint…
-Pleeeese!
[Thomas has joined you]
-I’m right behind you.
-That’s fine, right?
-I like the rear position.

[talk to boney]
-(there’s something hidden in the doghouse).
[flint receives stick]
Thomas:
-Hey! Flint!
-That stick can be used as a weapon if anything happens.
-Make sure you “equip” it.
-If you just hold it it’s about as useful as a caramel.

menu screen: Now’s a good time to run through the menu screen. The box is of course, items, the bat being equip, the person being status, and zzz for sleep-mode. What we want is equip. The equip options go in this order: weapon, body, head, and other. What we do is equip the stick. Simple. Other explanations will be done when it becomes necessary (using items should be simple enough though).

[When you get to town, you must go north, but you can’t move on until you get a map. Talk to the man on the bench]
Mapson:
-If you’ve got business with the map-loving, map-totin’ Mapson, then it must be about maps, eh?
-Here ya go, help yourself.
[received map]
-We’re all worried about Lighter’s son, who’s in the forest.
-I marked that area with a circle.
[Got your map marked]
-Hurry up and check things out.
-Oops. I forgot to tell you how to look at the map.
-To look at the map you… What was it called?
-You know, you use your right index finger to get it to do what you want.
-In laymen’s terms, it’s called the R-button… Or something.

There was alot of love put into this game, evident in every aspect of my short time with it. There is a sound test available on the main menu, with over 200 songs from the game (this game has alot of good music, returning/remixed music, and catchy new tunes). Animations are superb (think Earthbound, but more fluidly animated), the same simple graphic style as earlier games, but more details, and more... everything! I can't wait to see this in english.

I've gotten Flint as a playable character right now, and an NPC buddy following him. I couldn't help myself, and searched out the RAM address for his stats, so...

2004194 - WRAM Address - Flint's HP

All the addresses nearby are his equipment, PSI, character sprite/ID, items, etc...

It takes all my willpower to not look at the spoilers spread about Starmen.net's forums...
I hope I don't crack and peek...

I know the feeling, everyone there (the REALLY rabid Mother fans) don't make it easy on visitors browsing about, everything is in spoiler tags, and every reaction is:
"OMG"
"You will cry when this happens *spoiler*"
"Greatest gaming moment ever!"
"You will never guess who makes an appearance in Chapter # XX!!!!"

I'll give it a few months, or a little past E3 to see if an official translation takes place. If not, then I'm stuck waiting for the inevitable flood of would-be fan translation groups, and I'll just spoile(r) my self rotten.

Well, you probably already have, but if not, you could do what I'm doing and tide yourself over by playing the original Mother. I loved Earthbound, but never got around to playing the original game of the series.

Earthbound Zero, I have yet to play. I just got done with Earthbound again last week, so playing the original IS a good idea. Since I played Earthbound first, I suppose I never gave it a shot because it seemed like a step back (not because of the system, I love the NES).


Also, a preliminary GSF Mother 3 set has been released, and it's quite gargantuan...

Um... if you're new to the board, then you should REALLY read the FAQ.

Rom requests are not allowed. Consider this a warning.
