Last weeks poll-
I asked everyone what they thought was the best weapon
in the game, and here are the results:
MULTI BOTTLE ROCKETS: 80%
GUTSY BAT: 20%
Now here are some of the responses I recieved about
the weapons:
From: Nikmcpimp- (This one was pretty interesting, I
dunno why, it just was!)
-I'd have to say that the gutsy bat is the best, due
to the fact that I never found it, even after fighting
kraken over and over again. It's the mystery that
makes it so cool.
Oh well, thats the only email I still have.
This weeks vote:
-Whos the toughest enemy in the game? Why?
My vote would go to the CAREFREE BOMB. You have to
fight him with only 1 person, and usually he also has
2 or 3 allies with him. And almost everytime I face
him, he either kills me or takes most of my life away,
or he kills the Flying Man. Also, he has no weaknesses
to really exploit.
REMEMBER TO VOTE!!!!!!!!!!!
Now heres a different type of vote, its not a vote,
its a survey. Mirelli68 siggested this to me. The
question is-
"If you could live in any EB town (or country, such as
Dalaam or Winters or Summers) what would it be and
why?"
Please remember to send in a story to this, it would
help alot and would be very interesting to read.
Thanks to Mirelli68 for coming up with this.
MY FONDEST EARTHBOUND MEMORY
-By Matingly22
I remember my fondest memories of Earthbound like it
just happened yesterday. Well, I actually have 2
different memories I am so fond of. I'll tell you the
first one 1st.
This first time I ever played Earthbound was a
late October, in the year of 1995. I had heard alot
about the game, and I remembered those scratch n sniff
articles VERY well from Video Game Magazines!! And I
was at my friends house, and I noticed he had the
game. I asked him if I could borrow it (My friend is
kind of dimwitted, many times he has let me borrow
games and forgot that the game was his!! Thats how I
got Earthbound, he just forgot about the game and the
strategy guide he gave me.) I took it home and I had
dinner, and then I decided to sit down and try the
game. When the part where you put the characters names
came up, I had this funny feeling about it, because I
really enjoyed just naming the people and all the
other things, and I really liked that person who said
"Okista!" or something like that after I finished
naming someone! The beginning of the game, where you
go to the meteorite I thought was SO cool, how you did
all that stuff, and how this game was set in normal
times, not in those midevil times most games are in. I
was hooked by the game after that night. The next day
in school I called home sick so I could go home and
play it. I remember how I thought Frank, the leader of
the Sharks was the toughest enemy in the world, ahhhh,
that was a great time!!! That was one of my fondest
times since I have ever played video games. I was
never so intriguied with any game after that, although
Chrono Trigger and Super Mario 64 came pretty damn
close!!!!
Ok, heres my other really fond memory of
Earthbound. This was actually before I beat the game,
because on my original file I could never beat Giygas
until about half a year after I got to the end. This
story is pretty funny, too. One day I went to my
cousin Joe and Jodie's house, and I brought Earthbound
there. I was staying there for like 5 days. This was
during a very, very hot week in July of 1996 where the
weather was over 95 degrees all week. My cousin Joe,
he always thought Earthbound was stupid because of
those scratch n sniff ads in the magazines during the
summer of 1995 (he barfed after smelling Master
Belch!!!) But when he was watching me play, he asked
me if he could have a file, and I gave him one, and he
used GAME GENIE the first time he played, (what a
wimp!) But once he played it, the heart and fun of the
game took him over as well, he couldn't stop playing
the game at ALL, and then his sister Jodie wanted a
file, so I gave her one. They both didn't stop
fighting for the next 5 days over playing time. By the
2nd day I was there, they were both up to Scaraba
already and this was the 1st time they ever
played!!!!!! I was so pissed at them because all I
could do those 5 days was help them out while playing,
but the way I saw Earthbound take them over was just
so amazing to me. On the 3rd night I was there my
cousin played from 7:30 in Deep Darkness 'til 2:30 at
night just getting up to the final boss!!!!!! Then the
next day he started a new file without game genie and
he played from 8:30AM until like 3:00PM!!!!! Then me
and Joe went in his pool and Jodie played for like 6
hours. By the time I finally went home Joe completed 2
files even though he never beat either one of them,
and Jodie only got to finish 1 file because Joe hogged
the game up most of the time.
Those are 2 of my favorite times ever for
Earthbound playing. They were both so great. Also,
some of yous may know Jodie as CUTNSHORT, remember she
was annoying a couple of us in the Saturn Valley chat
room and i punted her!!
This concludes my story, if any of yous have a
fond story of Earthbound, please share it with me and
I will print it on the next newsletter.
Also, remember that meetings are always on Saturdays
