Well, I finished Mother last night. It was very short, but I'm okay with that. It was totally worth it, and maybe in the future I'll do it without the easy patch. It's kind of nice to have Earthbound's back story, and FINALLY hear the source of Ness and Lucas' victory theme in Brawl...though I wish it had stayed the Earth's Melody for Ness, at least, and maybe the Mother 3 Love theme (or a variant of it) for Lucas. Meta Knight has a different victory theme from the other Kirby characters, so I know they can do different themes for characters from the same franchise. But I digress.
So now...playing Earthbound again, since I imagine I may appreciate it on a new level. But this time, I might mix it up a little. I might try some of Starmen.net's challenges in the game, such as getting all the rare (or 1/128) item drops, buying the house west of Onett before proceeding to Twoson, getting the T-Rex bat before Jeff leaves Winters, either get or avoid all the photo man locations (when possible)...stuff like that. At least some of these challenges play into each other.
After this I'm sure I'll play Mother 3 again, since my boyfriend should soon be getting the handbook.
