Celebrating Mother 3’s release in Japan three years ago nowadays, Starmen.net co-founder and fan-translation project lead Tomato posted an update on the unofficial localization’s outlook. With ten months of work already behind them, the team predicts that the completed English patch (GBA ROM required) still needs about seven months of hacking, script edits, and examining.

While that may sound like a faraway duration, keep in intellect that some fan-driven translations can take years before they’re finished, and that’s whether they even form it

past the first months of work before dissolving. Besides, it’s not like Nintendo of America is rushing to translate the RPG.

To help you deal with the wait, Tomato has posted ten minutes worth of video showing the team’s progress, all of which you can watch above! So shut, and yet so far absent!
