[quote name='Scorch']One of the Earthbound kids (Jeff, I think) is in Super Smash Bros Brawl, fueling rumors of EB on the VC and a localization of Mother 3.

Jeff has always been in SSB as a trophy... But Lucas, star of Mother 3, is on the main cast, seemingly replacing Ness. That would be what's fueling the hopes of Mother 3 coming to America, especially since that's what happened with SSB:M and the Fire Emblem series.
