Even in the case that it's fake, I'm thankful for that little glimmer of hope and the possibility that someone, somewhere (possibly someone at Nintendo) would be inspired in doing something with this.

You really think so? What makes you think that?

Just that Nintendo knows it needs big stuff for Wii U and GameInformer is credible and has revealed big stuff before.

C'mon, i don't believe this. NoA doesn't care about Earthbound anymore. Except for the Wii U VC release.

EarthBound is one of three games on the Wii U Virtual Console (the other two being Super Mario World and Super Metroid) to have a 5 stars out of 5 rating based on at least 12,000 ratings. Surely Nintendo couldn't easily ignore something like that, now could they?

I think this may be possibly be real.

Hopefully this is why, because otherwise I just don't see the point in even making that community. This is probably fake, but I want it to be true. Good God, I want it to be true...that guy from the Robot Chicken shorts is the only hope I have.

There is nothing here...except for the stuff I just typed...

Just the fact that the Mother/EarthBound series is getting a good chunk of attention even today is something that couldn't possibly be called "nothing".

It would be amazing, but I'm not getting my hopes up without any official confirmation.

I need a proper gif to point out how ridiculous this is (right now anyway).

Let's start with one huge problem: GameInformer reveals this game in an issue two months from now...in this very description!

I'm pretty sure it wasn't Game Informer who intended to put that up. It seems to have been Amazon.

Which again begs the question of how Amazon knew this content beforehand if GI didn't intend to "reveal" it?

Second problem: why does it not appear in an Amazon search? Third problem: It's fake

This guy points out that the supposed site with the info is zinio.com and posts a link to an actual listing: http://www.reddit.com/user/LULZ180

Fourth problem: It's on the internet where many gullible people spend their time

Anything is possible. Not everything is probable.

It is rather comforting.

I mean, just the fact that this news headline, real or not, is out there now and has been big enough to have been acknowledged by hundreds of people is an accomplishment in of itself.
