Episode 95 : Earthbound (SNES)

We try to cover a full-length 16-bit RPG as we take a look at Earthbound! A sequel to Mother, a game not released in the US, when Mother 2 arrived in the states with a new name change and a questionable advertising strategy, it did not get received well... however, it has developed a dedicated cult following over the years, and so we took our time and played this fully to determine if this cult hit is deserving of its reputation as an underappreciated hit.

We also answer some listener questions on Burgertime, the upcoming TG-16 mini console, and... Enya?

Want to skip to Ness and his friends? Start at the 8:15 mark!
