Not many players have noted its resonances with Shakespeare and Proust, beyond better-acknowledged references to The Beatles or Kurt Vonnegut. I’ve dedicated untold hours to the playful study of the 1994 SNES sequel, EarthBound. To say I’m biased is like saying people in big cities are fond of Strawberry Tofu. Anyone interested in video games, relational life-lines, and the vagaries of time and taste should do the same. Decades later, as EarthBound Beginnings, it officially released on the Wii U and Switch virtual consoles, and at the prompting of an old friend, two years after becoming a father myself, I finally played it.
MOTHER came out for the Famicom in 1989, two years after I was born.
