Het Amerikaanse ratingsbureau ESRB heeft via haar site laten weten dat de klassieker Earthbound zal verschijn in de Amerikaanse Virtual Console van de Wii. Earthbound verscheen in 1994 voor de SNES en werd ontwikkeld door Hal Laboratory en verscheen enkel in Japan en Amerika. Hopelijk zal het spel ook in de Europese Virtual Console verschijnen!
EarthBound to druga część sagi zatytułowanej w Japonii Mother, cieszącej się tam ogromną popularnością. W kręgu anglojęzycznym właśnie tylko ten SNESowy tytuł ujrzał światło dziennie - Mother 3 wydany na GBA pozostał jedynie w sferze fanowskich tłumaczeń. Niewielu z nas pewnie miało okazję spróbować tego klasyka, uznawanego za jednego z lepszych przedstawiecieli swojego gatunku. Dzięki stronie ESRB już wiemy, że będzie okazja nadrobić zaległości.

Filed under: Fan stuff, Homebrew, Video Celebrating Mother 3's release in Japan three years ago today, Starmen.net co-founder and fan-translation project lead Tomato posted an update on the unofficial localization's outlook.

HAL Laboratory started off making games for the MSX system and the Commodore VIC-20. During the early 1980s, some of their games since the 1986 Famicom Disk System game Gall Force (based on the anime series of the same name) have been released also on Nintendo systems.
In many of its games during the early to mid-'90s it used the name HALKEN (derived from their literal Japanese name "HAL KENkyūjo") as well as HAL Laboratory. Some of its early titles were also released as HAL America, a North American subsidiary of the company.
The current president of Nintendo, Satoru Iwata, was a former president of HAL. Other important figures include Masahiro Sakurai, who created the Kirby character and the Super Smash Bros. franchise, and now leads his own company, Sora Ltd.
