Earthbound/Mother creator Shigesato Itoi has long been in
development on a secret project. Mother-obsessed fans have been deciphering his website and words for
clues, but today Itoi dropped the bomb: in his own
(translated) words, "Mother 3 for Game Boy Advance is nearing release."
Unfortunately, that is all the news he will give, as he is "probably going to stay quiet about Mother 3 until
just before its release."
There are very many questions to be answered: is Ness returning? Why not make the game for Nintendo DS? And, most
importantly, will we see a US version of the game?
To all this, Itoi simply requests, "please forget about [the game] again for a short while." We wish everyone
(ourselves, included) good luck trying to forget this.
