Earthbound is a very popular game on the SNES but it did not become popular until roughly 20 years after it was released. Earthbound is also known as Mother 2 in japan and has become a cult classic world wide. If you want to purchase a legit copy of the game expect to pay around $1000, Earthbound is currently one of the most expensive games to buy for the super nintendo.
