Replaying Mother 3 but not sure I can connect with the setting. A bunch of fascist pig thugs ruled by a narcissistic manchild take over a society which is too spiritually poisoned by love of money to offer any meaningful resistance. I mean nothing like that could ever happen in real life

Small comfort knowing that was a world where praying actually works and it still led to there.

"it was too late in the GBA's lifecycle" is a Japanese phrase that translates roughly to "Nintendo of America didn't want to handle the joke about one of the okama stereotype characters raping lucas in chapter 4"

I wonder how the guy is doing who one day waltzed into my twitter replies to say that he somehow interpreted mother 3's story as somehow being about fighting COMMUNIST pigs

How are things in your world? Things here look like they're going to be all right. You sure you're OK?

Cybershell, please take care of your world.

And that's why Nintendo of America refused to release it.

Can't forget that said manchild wants to end the world out of sheer petty spite and boredom

Of course you can! Why else do you think your character in an Animal Crossing game doesn't remember anything about the time before?

If I had a nickel for every time I compared current events to Porky’s villain speech, I’d have two nickels. Which isn’t a lot but it’s kind of weird that it happened twice
