Do you think Nintendo will eventually release at least some of the Japan only releases of Earthbound (Mother 1 and 3) and Starfy (1-4) games in the US? What about the possibility of a re-release of Mother 2 (SNES Earthbound)?

We will be lucky if Mother 2 even comes to the VC in NA!

As for Stafy... maybe.

Not very likely. If they haven't done it by now, then most likely they won't do it ever

Earthbound I hope so.... Stafi, I really hope Nintendo doesnt do what it did to destroy that character anymore! I loved the originals on GBA, but the DS Starfy localized game made me sick it was so obnoxious.

They said if Starfy does good in the US, they'll try to bring the rest of the series over. I think it's very possible.

I really can't wait to play the other Starfy games. I wonder if I should import the older games in the series? Maybe I should?

I wouldn't be surprised if the Starfy games came here. As for the Mother trilogy, not a chance.

No. Nintendo can be very stubborn, such as with HD technology...

like what Digiki said, yes because "ever" is a really long time. But I'm assuming you mean in the next 5-30 years, so here's my opinion; For Starfy, the localized DS game would have to sell well before Nintendo will think about localizing the series. As for the Mother series, probably not. However, I imagine that if Nintendo made a Mother 4, it would be localized after the almost insane backlash of fans against the whole "Mother 3 Isn't Coming to The West" thing.

...But there will never be a Mother 4 because Itoi said he is "done with the series", and if Nintendo made it without him it just wouldn't be the same, plus there's no way any of the cultural references would be in it.

Mother: Maybe 1000000000000 years from now.
Starfy: Probably.
