Fans have been working on an unofficial remake of JRPG classic Mother for over 18 years now, and a number of iterations later, the latest version is finally eyeing up a release next year, and it already looks way better than the Wii U port Nintendo gave us a decade ago.
Although it was first released in Japan in 1989, fans overseas didn't get an English translation of Mother 1 until 2015, when a localized version was released on the Wii U Virtual Console as EarthBound Beginnings. However, many years before this – in January 2007, to be exact – one fan who went by Tomato began working on an unofficial version.
