Seriously, am I the only one?

I can't wait for Smash Bros for 3DS.

I hate that Earthbound is the only one that was officially released outside Japan

It's far from being a popular series, so the answer should be obvious.

I do in fact know of an intellectually insulting human being who hates it, but that's not the best sign, is it? No, that's not an insult to you, even though not explaining your reasons why is questionable.

I don't entirely blame a person if they hate it, mainly if they're not into old school RPG battles or the game's sense of humor.

Why would you think that you were the only one? It's fine if you don't like it, there isn't one game out there that everybody likes.

Hate is such a strong word. I don't like the series and I think it's quite overrated

Yes, just you. Everybody else on Earth loves it, which explains why it has 20 sequels, all released worldwide, and has sold hundreds of millions of copies.

So Anakin kneels before Monster Mash and pledges his loyalty to the graveyard smash.

You forgot about the merchandise.

I get how people can hate the combat.

But I don't really get how you can hate the game. It's such humorous little adventure.

Looking forward to: No More Heroes: Travis Strikes Again

This is a trap of Gyigas.
He grows stronger with your hate.

No. There are other heartless monsters out there like you.

Seriously though, EarthBound is a great game (Mother 3 is better) but I can see why some folks hate/dislike it. If you're a huge RPG fan like me, you'll love it, but otherwise, you're better off sticking to something you know you'll enjoy.

Off-topic, but I've noticed some folks dis-like the fandom. I do as well. They constantly ask for new games/releases of old games when the series is obviously dead to Nintendo. But I guess I'm a hypocrite because I do that sometimes.

The only SNES RPG from around that time I really hate is the Lord of the Rings one because I paid £80 to import it (Same as Chrono Trigger or Final Fantasy III which were totally worth it).

I didn't like Drakkhen but I got it used dirt cheap so I disliked it much less.

This summs up my feelings as well.

Ouch. I rented it so I think I only paid a buck to find out it's bad.
