HAPPY EARTHBOUND DAY! On this day 30 years ago MOTHER 2 debuted in North America as "EarthBound" with a now-legendary localization written predominantly by Marcus Lindblom. It didn't make a big splash at it's debut, but sometimes small ripples become epic waves that reshape the world for the better.
