Mother 3 is the third game in the EarthBound series, taking place an unknown amount of time after EarthBound. Originally developed as a late SNES title, the project was shifted to the Nintendo 64 and even later the Nintendo 64DD, where it received the tentative title of Mother 64 in Japan and EarthBound 64 overseas. However, the project was cancelled in late 2000. The game was eventually announced for release in Japan on the Game Boy Advance in 2003, after the release of Mother 1+2, and, despite popular demand, was never released officially in any other region, presently being the only game in the series to lack an official international release.

Story

Mother 3 is primarily set in and around Tazmily Village, in the Nowhere Islands.
