Mother (25th Anniversary Edition) for Famicom/NES

Post by R9delta » November 7th, 2014, 9:03 am

Recently a new translation/romhack was done for Mother but since the patch for it requires you to have a rom for the Earth Bound (Zero) Prototype i've fixed it up to work on an original Mother cart...making it able to be used on the Retron 5. Here is the fixed patched:

Information about this new translation/hack:

"Mother: 25th Anniversary Edition aims to make Mother much more enjoyable for both Earthbound fans and those playing it for the first time.

All enemy graphics, NPC sprites and tiles are be redrawn from scratch to be more faithful to the clay models. The goofy enemies are goofier and the creepy enemies are creepier. A shiny new font and title screen was added, too!

The overworld has been tweaked to be much less bleak and repetitive, so it’s harder to get lost. There is more scenery, areas are more colorful and confusing areas like Duncan’s factory have been simplified. On the other hand, tiny areas like the graveyard and Crystal Cavern have been lengthened.

There are also a lot of changes under the hood. Enemies will yield slightly more exp and the encounter rate has been readjusted. The “Dangerous Foe” battle theme is used less often and party members will be met at a higher level. DragonDePlatino’s goal in creating this hack was to create a game easier than the original but still very challenging.

And last but not least, this hack uses Tomato’s official Mother 1 + 2 translation, adapted for the NES. Over 1400 lines of text have been altered to create connections with the rest of the series, improve clarity and shorten reading time. This hack will also feature much quicker battle text courtesy of vince94. Battles progress almost twice as quickly!"

I've noticed a lot of people have been downloading this file so just to make those aware who have been using this...it has now been updated to v1.11. There's been a lot of bug fixes so its definitely worth your time to redownload the patch. Your save data will still be intact as well and the link above is still the same.

Other stuff (If you do not have a cartridge of Mother):

Mother (25th Anniversary Edition) - Apply patch to Super Mario Bros + Duck Hunt instead:

Mother (25th Anniversary Edition) - Apply patch to Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 2: The Arcade Game instead:
