Nintendo Innuendo #1: EarthBound/MOTHER 2
New series! Nintendo Innuendo is a Dark Aspects spinoff, fully focusing on the risqué & suggestive jokes or themes developers sneak into their family-friendly games. In this first episode on the Super Nintendo classic EarthBound, I cover everything I wasn't able to to in my Dark Aspects videos on the game. More nudity and references to stripping? Uncensored use of the word "sexy"? Join me as I compare the English version to its original Japanese counterpart, revealing all the crude humor lost between versions.
