COMPARISON: EarthBound Beginnings vs Mother Encore | Sprites Comparison Old vs Remake

[@josephpapisan9491]

I kinda like the shading and tone on many of the original enemies better, makes them seem more menacing. The NPC sprites, however, are undisputed upgrades. 👌

[@DucPr0]

Its the black outlines the OG used that causes their shading to look super dramatic compared to the newer colored outlines. I can certainly understand tho, black shadows look out of place with the new backgrounds

[@McNibbler]

The new sprites are very Mother 3 which looks good but it’s a really different style. I think I got a soft spot for the OG battle sprites but honestly it’s just a testament for how good the original sprites were

[@Davkun156]

Wow Ninten's dad looks like a good and a healthy father!

[@tyler_liwan5]

A trend you will notice is that OW sprites have 3 colors in their design for the OG and battle sprites have 3-4. This is because the NES could only contain up to 4 colors in a single sprite, transparent included. The redesigns are nice.

[@RinkuSonic41]

The black used in the sprites is the background black

[@tyler_liwan5]

@@RinkuSonic41 I’m aware, thank you.

[@Crypticyokai]

I LOVE Pippi in this game I hope shes more important to the plot

[@EdgeLie]

She looks like she's going to kill me in the new sprite!

[@Crypticyokai]

@@EdgeLie she probably will. She knows what you did.

I love how they bring back the unused bosses

[@amoura39]

Wow... this video is beautiful. I don't remember why I'm subscribed to this account or how long ago I've been hoping this would come to fruition assuming I followed it for this project but... I'm happy today that I did. This music is beautiful too. I love it.

[@ZergRushJohnny]

The enemies look pretty great, but I do wish the NPCs kept some of the Peanuts aesthetic, just higher fidelity

[@MoodyBlues2077]

I'm hoping with my entire being that they actually finish this, the demo is so great!

Smoking is killing!

I didn't know Ninten's mom has a name

[@nostalgicgaming2000]

Yes. The only one who doesn't have a name is Ness's mom.

[@voltron77]

@@nostalgicgaming2000Nah, her name is Rachel.

[@donaldkay5537]

Am I getting a Mandela effect or did I hear that Paula's dad's name is Nicole? 😭

[@SuperNormalMan]

I had no idea the crow originally had a cigarette.

[@MarabouPatriot]

I think the cig was removed in releases outside japan

[@Gameplayer1500X]

2:16 the hyena looks like he as shrek ears

[@krakentoast]

Idk how to describe it but the new sprites look to "smooth" and kinda "untextured" to me

[@ians_parks]

I think it's trying to appear similar to Mother 3 stylistically

[@KirbyBoy702]

Wait, there was a pillow enemy in Earthbound Beginnings?

[@АллаПрокофьева-ц2ч]

Pippi/boss fight(Encore) is better

[@EricN64]

The pippie boss was only in encore

[@EricN64]

Just like the pillow, as both battles are cut from the final game, unless we are talking the sprites themselves, then yes, I agree with you

[@RufusFinnick]

Esperaré a que salga el mother encore terminado para jugarlo porque mother 1 envejeció mal xd

[@Alex-gg9ht]

Mother 1 is so bad lmao, it sucks by modern day standards

[@allisonfernandacardona9134]

Noo no diga eso

[@RufusFinnick]

Es que el juego y lo que ofrece no es malo, solo que está demasiado limitado por la consola donde salió en su época, tiene un soundtrack de pta madre y es algo tedioso de completar, no como earthbound que lo mejora en varios aspectos a pesar de sentirse tmb medio lento.

[@punchthecake82]

i kinda like original alligator sprite better

[@Thewolfguys.cartoons2000]

Same, it even looks very impressive for nes/Famicom standards.

[@RandomPerson-65c816]

Same with Tiger

[@zakuxz9818]

I kinda prefer the originals

[@leonardodelimaferreira8509]

You could add to that with the 25th anniversary edition

[@gegor41311]

2:37 the tiger definitely looks better in the original, what's up with that

[@ians_parks]

Encore is more so trying to match the Mother 3 art style.

[@SuperSenshi]

I'm sad that the penguins didn't appear

[@Barveth]

Cool guy: 😎

[@buster5661]

I see you have some bugs

[@MrSaturn.]

No offense, but some of the things i actually think look better in the original

[@gianlucacolangelo6578]

Like what?

[@dodo-bot]

Fair enough, I personally like how the run away dog looks like in the original game but everything else is far more superior

[@alfredo2404]

I think the Encore enemies look "rounder" and "softer" in comparison to the originals.

[@CircusBabyLover-t3l]

Full Version of Mother Encore is Never releasing!

[@vinpar5557]

I thought Ninten and Ness were the same kids?

[@ians_parks]

Different characters. Conceptually similar.

[@funnyvalentine6670]

Nah, Ninten would be in his 20s-30s during Mother 2/Earthbound

[@dodo-bot]

No
