$10.00 is hard to swallow for a NES game though, especially for one I will likely never really play. How many suckers are gonna support these outrageous prices!?Īlthough I'm almost tempted to buy it just out of curiosity. The player's guide is also optimized for easy viewing on the Wii U GamePad. Additionally, It was announced that the original player's guide will be available for viewing online, on the EarthBound website. UPDATE: Today's Nintendo Direct Mini has confirmed that EarthBound will indeed be available today, July 18, on the Wii U eShop for $9.99. The K-A rating was replaced with the E (Everyone) rating, but it has now received a T (Teen) rating. When it was originally released in North America on the SNES, it was given a K-A (Kids to Adults) rating. For example, Dungeons & Dragons: Chronicles of Mystara was originally listed as a June 18 release, but its release is now TBA.ĮarthBound has also received a new rating from the ESRB. These listing are, unfortunately, not completely reliable. However, an official announcement has yet to be made. The classic Super Nintendo RPG is currently listed on Nintendo of America’s website, as well as the European eShop with a release date of July 18.

I hope that’s ok.EarthBound may be showing up on the Wii U eShop today, July 18. So here we are in the wait leading up to the January 12th Nintendo Switch livestream and one after the other rumor is making the rounds, often leaving us to doubt their legitimacy and if we should write about it and ruin the surprise? With social media nowadays it seems you’ll find out one way or another anyway, and news is news, so sometimes in our excitement we will cover these rumors. Since up until last year Nintendo has been really good at keeping huge projects cloaked in secret, always leading to fantastic surprises during their reveals at E3 and at Nintendo-hosted online presentations the rest of the year. Fingers crossed an English-language port of the RPG game isn’t too far off.Įnd-Note: As much as I like rumors & speculation, personally I think all the recent Nintendo Switch rumors & leaks outed by twitterers Laura Kate Dale & Emily Rogers completely ruined the latest Nintendo Digital Online Events. It’s fun to note that back on December 17th, 2015, Mother 3 was released for the Japanese Virtual Console on the Wii U, so Nintendo’s definitely not opposed to showing the series some love and attention.
