Tribute to the EarthBound Player's Guide (Part 2) 

6:28 if you filled your inventory before you get the sound stone, buzz buzz will give it to Tracy and you can leave it with her for the entire game, and I'm pretty sure it will still record your melodies even if you don't have it. So more or less the players guide is wrong here too.

Hell yeah, a part two! To give the Player's Guide some credit on the "*If* you have a Sound Stone" thing, it is possible to fill your inventory with junk (cookies from Spiteful Crows, namely) before Buzz Buzz gives you the Sound Stone in the Minch household, probably one of the most obscure dialogues in the game. He sends it to Tracy to hold onto in that case. Although it still loses points for saying "*a* Sound Stone," since there's still only one in the game.

You forgot to mention in the "Tessie Sighted!" section it says Winters was founded in 1889 the same year Nintendo was founded! I found the gold miner image funny because he reminded me of live action Mario (even had it as my pfp on Discord for a while)

I'm a sophisticated drug dealer, I have a beautiful drug emporium

You remind me of the RU-vid cybershell. I love earthbound and I love your videos

Another error is that the guide states you need the "Broken Parabolic" to get the Gaia Beam when it's the Broken Antenna. It also calls the Gaia Beam the "Baddest Gaia Beam".

"pain the neck" lol oh noo

Great vid - just to nitpick your nitpick, you actually *can* avoid obtaining the Sound Stone by cramming your inventory with cookies before encountering Buzz Buzz at the beginning of the game. (I believe he gives it to your sis instead for storage.)

MonkeyNess saying "Bodacious Babe" is cursed

I wish there were still guides written like this

I just got into your content a little while ago after I beat EB. Love to see you upload

yo its my favorite piece of literature!

MonkeyNess' videos are never bad :)

6:53 Oh my God 😱! June 16 is my birthday 🎂! My birthday 🎁 was on a Monday too 😯! What an incredible coincidence 😲! Amazing 🤩!

I would honestly love to own a copy of the player’s guide. Probably a repro though, as I ain’t paying 200 dollars

Fly honey official artwork. That's all. What else can I say? Actually I was expecting it to look so gross but it even looks tasty, if it were not for the giant fly on the jar's etiquette.

5:50 The guide isn't referring to PSI Rockin' as PSI Power, it's saying "If you use a strong PSI power", *a* strong PSI power, so this could just as much be about PSI Freeze.

It may be intentional to be funny about bad and false information next to real stuff in a magazine

Less go part 2

5:53 I think they meant they wanted you to use a strong PSI, I think they're not calling PK Rockin' "PK Power" since the wording.

Neat~

I

I love your videos, you do great work! Now I'm not trying to be a jerk, but... 3:03 it's the Mesozoic era, (mes-o-zo-ic) not the Mosaic.

This guide, while kind of outdated, it's a nice time capsule of the 90s if I'm being honest.

"Threed will still be covered in darkness until you beat the Trillionage Sprout." Minor error here. Threed is restored to daylight once you beat Belch. You can skip Trillionage Sprout and come back to fight it later if you want.

Great video, but a little mistake at 8:45. One-armed bandit is old fashioned slang for a slot machine, not literally calling them bandits, but very much implying they're still trying to scam you.

Actually it IS possible to not be holding a sound stone, just have a full inventory at the time of buzz buzz's death and it will be given to Ness's sister instead

You can heal sunstroke with alpha.

5:10 threed actually lights up after beating belch. The trillionage sprout has nothing to do with it

I'm surprised that you're surprised at a strategy guide giving you ideas like refilling your PP with magic butterflies by going in and out of the room. That's the kind of stuff strategy guides do...

Bubble Monkey is a dangerous escaped convict. If seen, return him to the Onett Police Station

Really wasn’t expecting the New York Rangers to catch a stray in the EarthBound players guide…..

The error that I always remember since I was a kid is on page 53 where the Slimy Little Pile is called a Slimy Little Pig. No idea how that one got in there. Maybe a typo, followed by a bad spell check correction?

I mean there's one Mr Saturn living in the Blue Blue Village and the old man at the cave who sells you shit tells you of Saturn Valley

4:18 wait a broken parabolic?! In the game its the broken antena and... WHAT?! A baddest gaia beam?! huh??????

It's already been a whole month since you uploaded this part. We actually will be seeing more of it, right?

Psi healing alpha is all you need for sunstroke :x

The tone reminds me of A Series of Unfortunate Events.

2:45 you sound like cybershell here for some reason lol

i love ur videos so much.... ive been waiting for this patiently

4:12 what bothers me so much about this diagram is the final entry. The Broken "Parabolic" and "Baddest Gaia Beam" do not exist, it should say "Antenna" and "Gaia Beam". It bothers me so much not just because it's wrong ("Baddest Gaia Beam" is excusable), but because I just can't understand how they mistakenly wrote "Parabolic" instead of "Antenna". How did that even happen and how did no one catch that? 5:10 As someone who leaves Trillionage Sprout until getting Poo every single time, it's actually Belch's defeat that changes Threed to it's "saved" state. Trillionage Sprout does nothing except give you the 3rd Melody. 7:47 Actually Alpha is good enough. You can save some PP with that, which considering how much everyone else gets Sunstroke, will save you a fair bit in the long run.

i can’t wait for the next episode! 😁

According to a web search I just did it says Japan has some schools that have class even in early summer and vacation doesn’t Start till July 20th for them so I guess this guide might just be going off of that rather than usa’s school vacation time

Huh, weird... I never thought of the Mr. Saturn are supposed to be like mysterious creatures in the Mother/Earthbound universe.

1:19 I think that’s just a general carnival reference with the “Lions, Tigers, and Bears” thing.
