The best damn game I've ever played. Just watch ChuggaConroy play it because it's really good. No, actually. Play it yourself!

EarthBound Zero isn't as advanced as EarthBound, but it's still good.

When a person becomes overly obsessed about a game/series that not too many people cared about, until it was brought back from another popular series, either through reference, re-ports, or in-game demo(s). (Gaming is not the only restriction to this disease, as it can work for shows, or musical artists as well, should the definition fit this situation.) This produces an "unrealistic" fanbase that would not have existed in the first place, had the game/character never appeared as a selectable choice in the first place. (Taking gaming as an example.)
Another example/series includes Phoenix Wright. The game was originally released for the Game Boy Advance back in 2001. It was never translated or cared about too much in the United States, until it was re-released in 2005 for the Nintendo DS. Only then did people start wearing blue, formal attire to gaming conventions shouting "OBJECTION!" every time.
Recently, even "Osu!" has been receiving this illness.

Look at the definitions written for 'EarthBound' and tell me how they're NOT experiencing EarthBound Syndrome. The poor souls.

"earthbound" significa alguien que esta atado o enlazado a este mundo (o a la tierra). Un enajenado atado a/confinado en la tierra (atrapado sin salida, condenado a vivir donde siente que no pertenece).

A term people often use to slander "quirky" indie turn-based RPG games that have similarities in terms of gameplay or themes that tackle mental health issues such as depression. Often used for indie games that are inspired or has the same vibe with the "Earthbound/MOTHER" series, hence the sentence.
Person A: Dude you should play OMORI, this game is so depressing.
Person B: Ah yes, the quirky earthbound inspired indie rpg.
Person A: bruh who cares about that! It's a great game anyway!

literally how people describe actual awesome indie rpgs nowadays (bonus points if they havent even played the game themselves)
(Insert game)? Ah hell nah another quirky earthbound inspired indie rpg
Are you kidding me? Have YOU even played the game at all? Sure it may contain earthbound aesthetics/inspos but don’t go around hating because of “oh wow another earthbound game”. Just go play it. There’s literally a millions of those out there.
Nah I’d rather play YIIK thank you very much
