What is MOTHER3?
A game I'm playing.
A gut wrenching epic tale of family tragedy, bravery, humor, greed, love and sorrow.
And I'm only about 1/3rd through.
Written and directed by a famous Japanese novelist named Itoi.

It's for the Game boy advance. (or your favorite emulator)
Nintendo has no plans to translate or release the game outside of America.
so, some talented fans, translators and rom hackers did it for them.(
