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

I played through it once on Wii U and once on the actual cartridge when I got it a few years later. I've been wanting to play it again but I remember Mother 3 being the far superior game, so if I revisit the series, I'll probably give Mother 3 priority. I started playing EarthBound Beginnings, but never really got into it aside from the music.

I played it all the way through when it came to 3DS and mostly remember its gameplay being a blatant carbon copy of Dragon Quest, but not nearly as well balanced. It's really the kind of game you play for the weird dialog more than anything else, but I've played worse 16 bit RPGs.

EarthBound is one of my favourite games of all time, and though I can accept this is mostly due to the rose coloured tint of nostalgia, I still have an honest appreciation for the game and it's wacky humour. My copy is CiB but I didn't purchase it as a collector's piece. My mother bought it for me when I was in sixth grade and of all my childhood SNES games, it was the only one I kept the box for due to the novelty of the giant box. (As a side note, there is no such thing as a "sealed" copy of EarthBound. Unopened is the best you can get, if you can prove it. The box was never sealed in shrink wrap like standard sized SNES boxes)

I’m a huge Earthbound fan as well. I used to rent it fairly often before I bought a copy, it’s hard without the guide.  I purchased it in 1998-ish when a local store had a huge pile of them on clearance for like $30 I think. I used to play it once a year for a long time, but with kids and a fairly demanding job, I haven’t been able to in a while.  Still one of my all time favorites.

I never have, as it came out when I wasn't into gaming anymore. Sounds like I may need to pick it up on the wii-u store before it's too late.
