  • Mother 1 + 2 (MOTHER 1 + 2 Mazā Wan-Tsū) is a console role-playing game developed by Ape Inc., Nintendo Tokyo R&D Products and HAL Laboratory and published by Nintendo for the Game Boy Advance on June 20, 2003. It is a compilation of the first two installments of the Mother series, MOTHER and MOTHER 2: GIYGAS STRIKES BACK! (the former being known outside Japan as EarthBound Beginnings and the latter as EarthBound). The game was meant to promote the upcoming Mother 3 (also for the Game Boy Advance as the rebirth of the franchise, and it has currently been released only in Japan). As it features two different games, its developer credits vary, but between both Mother and Mother 2, Shigesato Itoi acted as the designer and director, and music was composed by Keiichi Suzuki and Hirokazu Tanaka. Mother tells the story of Ninten, a 12-year-old boy who journeys around the world using his psychic powers to collect eight melodies in order to save the planet from an evil race of mind-controlling aliens. Mother 2 tells the story of Ness, a young boy who journeys around the world also using psychic powers to collect eight melodies in order to save the future from an alien of pure evil, intending to sentence all of reality to the horror of eternal darkness. Tomato has released a hack for the Mother portion of the game to be fully translated, removing all censorship, retaining the original text, and including an optional "Easy Ring" that doubles the experience and prize money earned from battles. According to him, the latter addition was done to provide fans with an easier way to get into the game by reducing its infamously high level of difficulty and the amount of grinding required to overcome it, the latter of which Tomato described as making Mother feel more like a chore. Meanwhile the EarthBound portion of the game simply has the menu commands and names translated. Following Mother's official international release as EarthBound Beginnings, however, he has stated on Twitter that "I absolutely prefer that people play and support the official release and not my silly little hobby project." This action goes in line with the main condition of the Unofficial Mother 3 Fan Translation, which is intended to be shut down by its staff should Mother 3 receive an official international release.
