“A few months back, we released the translation tools for Mother 3 so that other translators could translate the game into their native language,” site founder Tomato said in a post. “The tools could also allow fans to create script hacks or the like… and almost immediately after the tools were uploaded, CrabbyRhys began a quest to polish and rewrite the English script!”

You can find more screenshots of the rewrite—which is currently a work-in-progress—over at Earthbound Central. Editor CrabbyRhys says he is also open to feedback from fellow fans regarding the wording of certain things in the English script.
