Mother 1 & 2 on GBA is one of those RPGs that just sticks with you—not just because of the weird enemies (like sentient stop signs and piles of vomit) but because it’s got this weirdly cozy vibe. You start off as Ness, just a kid with a baseball bat, and suddenly you’re telepathically chatting with aliens and fighting off possessed taxis. The writing’s hilarious in a dry, offbeat way, and the music? Absolute earworms.

It’s not all goofs, though—there’s something genuinely touching about how the story handles friendship and growing up. The combat’s simple turn-based stuff, but the psychic powers add a fun twist. Just don’t expect flashy graphics; it’s all about the charm. If you’ve ever wanted an RPG that feels like a mix of Twilight Zone and a Saturday morning cartoon, this is it.
