Redmond, WA - Nintendo has announced plans to produce all three games of the MOTHER series in English for the DS and Wii systems--in 3D. The move is seen as a response to the series' rabid fanbase, primarily members of Starmen.net who have coordinated various telephone, letter, and e-mail campaigns to try to persuade Nintendo to give the games more exposure in the US.
In a statement, Reggie Fils-aime, President of Nintendo of America, said, "Oh yes, we love the MOTHER games and we've actually been eager to play 3D versions of them in English for some time, but due to copyright and censorship issues and the small size of the fanbase, it just isn't feasible. However, we've got tons of money and we can do whatever we want, so we're having our top programmer whip up a batch of prototypes for us to play on the DS and Wii systems. They won't be released outside of headquarters, but we'll probably put up a few screenshots to show the MOTHER fans what a good time we're having."
In addition to the remakes, there will also be a sequel, MOTHER 4, which will also be an internal release. Reggie continued:
"Our plan is to have a contest, and the winner of this contest will be allowed to visit Nintendo HQ and watch us play the sequel and the other games. No, they won't get to play, of course, but afterward they'll be able to blog about it to all their friends. Should be good times."
