Could it be… a trilogy pack!?
After years of waiting, the SNES underdog classicEarthBoundisfinally coming to the Wii U eShopin America and Europe.EarthBoundis the second game in theMothertrilogy, though the other two have never officially made the journey out West. Perhaps if we’re lucky, Nintendo will present us with localized versions of the remaining installments as well.
Are we about to get lucky? Amysterious listinghas appeared on Amazon UK forEarthBoundon Wii U. You might be thinking, it’s probably something dumb like a download card for the game’s eventual digital release, but with a tentative price tag of £44.99, it looks more like a boxed retail release to me.
Waitaminute… that can’t be right! Nintendo wouldn’t charge so much for a single 20-year-old game, especially one that’s appearing digitally at a much lesser price. What if — and I’m just spitballing here — this is a collection that includes all threeMothergames? If that’s true, the celebrations would be thunderous.
This is all speculation for now, and this listing could turn out to be an error. But do remember that theboxed version ofNew Super Luigi Uwas leaked in exactly the same manner. Make of that what you will.
