MOTHER 1 : Battle With a Dangerous Foe | SOUNDTRACK - EXTENDED

[@elcuy3544]

Ninten's arrangement of this song is more intense than Ness's, which implies that Ninten is much more scared of his enemies than Ness.

[@mrborif4245]

I've never played mother 1 so I might be wrong here, but ness just seems like a very courageous kid. Ness took all of his foes head on even through unsurmountable odds. When he was asked at the end of the game if he would transfer his consciousness into a robot to save the world even though it might kill him he did it with no hesitation. Ninten is just a kid compared to ness, it dosent exactly mean ninten is super scared of his foes, just that he is far more serious and weary then ness is about things

[@megatennepster3833]

I mean have you played mother 1? I dont blame ninten!

[@omegahaxors9-11]

Earthbound feels like a power fantasy, with the main character being super-powered and ready for everything thrown at them. Ninten on the other hand... He fares as well as a kid his age would in the situations he's put into; which is to say, not very well.

[@youngkappakhan]

no it doesn't, it just means the composer changed it in the second game idiot

[@Mari_Izu]

Or that the composer wanted the first battle music your hear sounding threatening.

[@bluersonic9528]

This is just the Sanctuary Guardian theme, but instead of it being strange, it's... _Actually kind of threatening._

[@primeoctober]

why does everyone call this the sanctuary guardian theme when this came before sanctuary guardian? if anything, everyone should be calling sanctuary guardian "battle with a dangerous foe"

[@WaterBug64]

@PrimeOctober it is because usually people hear sacristy guardian before hearing this song. This causes them to reference it. It is just a matter of popularity, rather than release date

I definitely like Earthbound's rendition better, but this actually sounds like boss music. I can't wait to get my physical copy of this game (it's the official translation burned onto an NES cartridge)!

[@archusrtm6325]

Not a boss theme

[@cashbanooca1071]

@@archusrtm6325 I meant in the context of Earthbound with the sanctuary guardians. Although, reading this comment again, I do see how it really only made sense in my head.

[@eternalthrylos6006]

Imagine securing a username like THAT congrats man

[@CLTurtle]

I think both renditions have their own charms, and fit with their game's overall nature. The one in Earthbound Beginnings sounds rather scary and ominous, which is fitting due to playing in a "Battle With a Dangerous Foe" and Earthbound Beginning's more serious story. The one in Earthbound (SNES) sounds more calm, steady, almost as if telling players to think carefully with their actions and approach the fight thoughtfully, which is fitting as its used for the Sanctuary Guardians. In addition, the song has a bit of weirdness to it (what with its occasional random sound effect being thrown in), which fits the Guardians' wacky designs, and the game's more quirky feel.

[@diamondyoshi6649]

i love how Earthbound's ost is like 99% remixes of Mother 1 songs.

The “What How?” Meme comes from an Earthbound song called Sanctuary Guardian due to how weird it is (good song highly recommended) this game, is called Earthbound Beginnings in the west and came before earthbound. Why does this matter? Sanctuary Guardian is a slowed version of this song.
