Over the last two years, we’ve received thousands of messages of praise, critique and some amazing fan art. That feedback has kept us going. As a way to say thank you to early supporters, we created the invite list.

Today we’re announcing the invite list for Mother 4 is now full.

What if I’m on the invite list?

Early supporters will receive the game before any one else. We’ll send out an email with your own download link. We’ll have some behind the scenes stuff, messages from the team and other goodies.

How can I confirm I’m on the list?

EDIT: If you have the “please confirm email” then click the link and you’ll be automatically confirmed. You’ll then see this screen:

Then you’re confirmed to be on the list. If you didn’t receive this email then you didn’t complete the process (set up to prevent SPAM). Which is okay! Keep reading.

What if I’m not on the Invite list?

If you didn’t make it on the list, that’s okay. Mother 4 will still be completely free. You simply won’t receive an email and will have to wait until we release the game publicly.

Why is the limit +55,000 people?

We initially set the limit at 15,000—half of what the Mother 3 translation petition received in 2003. But it seems the Earthbound community has grown substantially, because we overshot that quicker than we anticipated. By the time we had checked the list, we had surpassed the 50,000 mark.

From all of us working on Mother 4: thank you.
