Fan-made Mother HD intro will mess you up
YouTuber rickonami, who made the HD Mega Man 2 video from earlier this month, has worked his CG magic once again to recreate the intro to Mother for the Famicom, a.k.a. EarthBound Zero. The original opening wasn't much to look at, so he spiced it up ever so slightly. Just remember to stop the video after about a minute unless you are prepared to gaze into the pit of despair. A couple of weeks back, rickonami also whipped up a spiffy tribute video for the original Double Dragon, which I've posted after the jump. I had forgotten how many platforms that game wormed its way onto. MOTHER " EARTHBOUND " INTRO REDUX - HD [YouTube]

Legacy Comments (will be imported soon)Impressive! I did a similar video a few years ago, but without the Giegue/Giygas interruption, although if I may nitpick since Mother 1 is my fav. J-RPG, the Devil Machine version of Giegue/Giygas would not have a place in Mother 1. :P It would have been more accurate if it showed Giegue as he appears in Mother 1 instead of Giygas, but it's a cool animation regardless. I would prefer if it was just the intro sans iygas (considering as Giygas's distortion was actually on EarthBound too) Also, gotta point out, kinda lame, but I see how Giygas would be easier to do than the sprite version of Giegue. 10:00 PM on 05.24.2013 Too cute!
