I thought the kid in this game was named Ninten and was a different kid than in the sequel? Also, what is the faded image on the front and back of the cover "faded" in the red? Are those real life kids? |

I never really played either game but unreleased games intrigue me so I decided to make a cover based on that. The information on the back was from a variety of sites when I was researching the game. I was under the impression that Nintendo decided to change the name of the main character from Ninten (obviously for Nintendo) to Nes (Nintendo Entertainment System) so it would relate better to the western audience. .... both characters at least look like the same kid? I'm not sure though ??? The image on the front is a scan from a magazine from a 1989 magazine article previewing Mother. I just recolored the image to make it fit with the "only red & gold" theme. They are real life kids from a commercial Ninitendo of Japan ran advertising Mother. The commercial is up on youtube http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9onnnzq5UF4 |

Did you read any of the previous posts ... two posts higher it says you can download them on my box.net profile in my signature ::) 2. This cover is for the translated version of Mother so Earthbound is more fitting considering that is what the franchise is called in America. If I do decided to make a Mother cover it would be in japanese w/ my Famicom template. |
