There’s a one character that seemed like your favorite during our survey, you can download a bunch of the scans I made for this site in one place now, the MOTHER 2 vinyl is being repressed, and Hobonichi made a MOTHER 2 protractor!

Out of 784 votes, which character won the Mother Forever Survey 2022? Seems like the community’s most common favorite character is… with 100 votes total: Kumatora!
And right behind her by just 3 votes (97 total) was Lucas! Third place with 82 votes was Ness, fourth place with 81 votes was Duster, and in fifth with 46 votes was Claus and the Masked Man. The rest of the results should hopefully be ready to announce in our Almost Monthly News next month!

Speaking of next month, we’ll also be posting a couple more interviews there on our YouTube channel before we’re going to take a break from them for a bit! I hope you enjoyed hearing from so many different Motherlike Indie developers over the summer. Thank you to all of them for letting us know how the MOTHER series affected them and their work. Next up are interviews with MOTHER Fan Game creators, including one that site writer Echoes posted on our website recently with MOTHER 4 fangame composer Irikachana. More are coming in video form during October!

Next, I uploaded my whole collection of MOTHER 64 scans for anyone to download as one package! These used to be spread out all over the site, but now you can easily get them all from one spot. Eventually, we plan to update this package with scans that aren’t just mine too so anyone can find every known scan in one place.

Did you manage to get a MOTHER 2 vinyl yet too? If not, then check out the new represses you can preorder now from Ship to Store PhonoCo. in a psychedelic orange or blue and from Light In The Attic in Apple Kid red! Do note that these new ones do not come with an obi strip, though.

And new MOTHER-themed Hobonichi Techo and Techo covers released on September 1st with a new bonus item that comes with this 2023 series: a protractor that features Jeff and the Bubble Monkey!
