| Have You Ever Played (Earthbound) ROM or SNES Cartridge? |

Most people know this is a vary expensive game to own a cartridge of, how many of you actually played it or better yet played it with it's cartridge, some of you might still have it sealed in that case you probably are just keeping it for the money exchange and don't give a damn about the game itself, I have a SNES mini and have it officially on that as a Nintendo released ROM not a bootleg, or the cartridge itself but it still goes for a pretty penny just to own a Super Nintendo classic. anyway just wondered if anybody has tried to play it? Currently I just started it and it's like Pokémon, vary vary similar in difficulty, and so far it's been a fun game I love Earthbound it's a fun little RPG with same difficulty and style as Pokémon, you go at your own pace, no forced boss fights in the beginning unlike FF7 for the PlayStation console. (edit) sorry to sound harsh for sealed earthbound owners but? why have a game if you're not ever going to play it right? and you can admit I am jealous of you :-\ |

My roommate in college had a box full of old Super Nintendo games and Earthbound was one of them. I later played it again on the SNES classic. Both play the exact same from my recollection. It's funny that you mention Pokémon since part of Earthbound development team went on to work on the Pokémon games as Creatures Inc. I feel like there's only a light similarity between the two though. Mostly about a kid leaving town on his own. |

I've played both and also the official eshop release. Ironically I'm not a massive fan of the game either, but was obviously curious to see what all the hype was. |

At this point, if you own a sealed copy of pretty much and NES, SNES, or Sega game you are much better off playing the titles through other avenues - especially something with a price tag like Earthbound. |
