"There are two types of people in this world. Those of us who have played Earthbound, and the most unlucky people on Earth."

While I don't completely agree with that statement, I am being somewhat a participant on the Year of EarthBound. It began on September 13, and shall continue well into 2015. We're celebrating EarthBound and the MOTHER series.

To participate, you need to follow Year of EB's user, via the link above. Then you can start posting to the EarthBound and Super Smash Bros. communities about EarthBound. Be sure to tag them #YearOfEB!

EarthBound should be on the 3DS's virtual console service. I don't have a 3DS at this time, but if I did, I would probably get it if I could do so for free, having the Wii U Version already.
