Spring is finally here, and to celebrate, Starmen.Net welcomes you to the Mother 3 17th Anniversary Funfest!
April will mark 17 years since Nintendo released the third installment to our favorite series, and so of course we must celebrate this important anniversary. Some of the festivities include the typical fan submission categories (AudioViz, CompArt, HandArt, and Writing), as well as a community playthrough of Mother 3 across nineteen GPPs!
What’s a GPP, you ask? It stands for Game Play Point, a term harkening back to the early days of the EarthBound Funktastic Gameplay Summer! It's time to Get Back in the Game! While we encourage you to play the game for yourself along the way, we've brought in some of Starmen.Net's greatest streaming heroes to play through each portion of the game over the course of the Funfest! All streams will be hosted on the official Starmen.Net Twitch channel, and you can find a schedule in this forum thread.
For any questions or to learn more, check out the Mother 3 17th Anniversary Funfest board!
Outside of Japan, there has always been a dearth of EarthBound/Mother related merchandise. Sure, there are the rare old promo items, but in terms of stuff that you could get without being a journalist or games store employee?
