June 20th - June 27th
This is the EarthBound fanbase's efforts to get Nintendo of America's attention so that they will recognize the franchise's popularity in order for them to bring the GBA port Mother 1+2 and the future Mother 3 to North America.
This is one of the most effective ways of getting Nintendo's attention and there have been results of acts such as this that have been positive such as the Zelda Bonus disc. Only an estimated 500 people called Nintendo asking them to port it over to North America, and it worked. I know for a fact that this is one of the best ways of getting Nintendo's attention.
We as EarthBound and RPG fans must act together as group and in a professional matter towards Nintendo to garner the respect and attention that we need to to take this community effort seriously. The impact to Nintendo will send a clear message that we truly want Mother 1+2 and 3 for our GBA's.
Several sites have already listed this as news and are supporitng the effort such as Nintendojo, Slashdot and RPG classics have both supported our efforts. This isnt a petition, but a reminder to fans of this franchise that if you want the game, you have to do your part and tell Nintendo you want it.
SPREAD THE WORD!!

The timing is due to the release of the game in Japan. This is voicing your own opinion to Nintendo and not just a "name" signing some online jumblygoo with an Internet nick. This is legitimate and I know for a fact from a voice in Nintendo that this is one of the most effective ways to get their attention on games like this.
Who doesnt want to see one of the best RPG's on GBA!
Anyways its working and Nintendo is responding to the fans calling in.
