Characters of Mother 3 - Concept and Creation

Concept and Creation

The characters' designs of Mother 3 were created by Hiroshi Sato, Shinobu Nagata, and Kuninori Ueno. Most characters featured are exclusive to it, appearing in no other games in the series. Several characters were taken from EarthBound, including Porky Minch, Dr. Andonuts, and Mr. Saturns. Most of the characters that were featured in the Game Boy Advance version were originally created for the cancelled Nintendo 64 version. Unlike the previous two titles in the series which featured most of the playable characters as children, Mother 3 only stars two playable children, while the other characters are either adults or animals.
