On the other hand, many people tell the other side of the base to be glad another EarthBound/MOTHER game is being released overseas, and that they thought the first game was always going to be localized first due to being already translated. While the game has always been polarizing in the Mother fandom, and people are excited since it means high hopes for Mother 3, Nintendo's decision to release this game in America before Mother 3 has gotten them quite a bit of flack from people who aren't fans of Beginnings, and to a lesser extent, people wanting a Video Game Remake compilation that updated Beginnings' battle mechanics to that of later entries of the series.It has no relevance to the plot whatsoever, there is no previous mention of it being full of monkeys, and is never talked about ever again. Big-Lipped Alligator Moment: The ruins in Yucca Desert that are inhabited by monkeys that tell lies to Ninten and his party.Awesome Music: Plenty, but see The Power of Rock for more.Another one for Giygas, considering how willing he is to call off the attack once he's reminded of how much his adopted Mother loved him, some interpret it as Giygas being forced to spearhead the invasion against Earth by his species (possibly in retaliation for the aggressor behind it being his adopted father), and that Giygas's cold and aggressive demeanor in-game is him trying to convince himself that he doesn't care for humans or the people who raised him.It's ultimately not that hard to feel bad for Giygas despite him being hellbent on getting revenge especially when you know what his ultimate fate is. Similarly, is Giygas really a heartless monster destined to destroy the universe like EarthBound claims he is, or is he just as much a victim of circumstance as most people are in this story? It's clear being betrayed by one of his surrogate parents really messed him up later on in life even before he became Giygas proper and even when he tries to invade the Earth, being reminded of his surrogate Mother and the love he still has for her makes him call off the invasion.If the roles were reversed, with aliens taking human knowledge that could damage their race and the universe, humans might do the same, plotting invasion to right the wrong done. Giygas could be interpreted as a Hero of Another Story, as we do only see the Mother series from the human perspective, which could serve as a form of unreliable narration. Is Giygas an Knight Templar or a Well-Intentioned Extremist? This ties in with the above, due to how ambiguous the situation is surrounding George and Giygas' relationship.
