[quote name='Trollsmeesh']I was actually a little surprised anyone would question why someone would buy this guide even if they aren't a 'devoted' fan. Personally, I like the mother series, at least what I have played, but would not describe myself as a 'devoted' fan. Do I like it enough to buy a guide set out by Nintendo? Nope. I am buying this guide because I highly respect and admire what these people are trying to do.
With that being said, I would probably buy a god damned dora the explorer guide if it was made well enough by fans that spent time translating the game and then making a quality guide.
I know I have said it quite a few times, but my respect for these guys is huge. People should want to support such determination.[/quote]
Maybe "devoted" went beyond my intended scope of the statement, but the quoted post pretty much stated he was a "very vocal disliker" of Earthbound. I was just wondering why someone would buy a project based on something one would dislike.
[quote name='Doomstink']I'm a collector and this is a product related to Earthbound. It's a no brainer purchase to add to a collection. I'm really glad I bought the guide because it is seriously an amazing piece of work. If these guys put out their own version of the Earthbound guide, or a guide for Mother 1, I'd buy those too.[/quote]
Fair enough. Now play more than Onett in Earthbound!
