I think MOTHER Encore forgot this feature...

I hope it's in when the game is finished, naming everyone Giegue including your favorite food was hilarious to me.

I DO NOT OWN ANY EARTHBOUND ZERO, EARTHBOUND AND MOTHER 3 CONTENT! All belong to Nintendo and Shigesato Itoi.

Be sure to check out MOTHER's official merchandise website!

The one kid named Giegue: Finally i can name the characters after me!

[raveast]

Have you ever told them to fix that? It's important to not make the player confused.

[ninten]

I eat giegue for breakfast, lunch, and dinner

[flippant_foe]

MOTHER: Encore uses Giegue’s MOTHER 2 US Localization name aka “Giygas”

[shaitet]

Maybe they used Giygas instead of Giegue?

[XT_official]

But it's just a demo. Maybe don't worry about it, It may be repaired in the future.

[VinnytotheK]

Idk if Giegue counts as "already taken", I think you mean that you can't name a character a name that's already used by the game.

[RadshyguyRadish]

i never knew that was a thing in mother 1. crazy

[azurecorviknight]

Update: "Somebody has that name, if you really wanna use it, make sure they're all capital letters!"

[linkXness]

I assume its because they just didnt know. Its not a very well known fact

[mrcloudark]

"And use only capital letters" Then why the fuck would you give us small ones.

[tracer]

Imagine a kid actually being named Giegue and playing Earthbound Beginnings only to realize you can’t actually name anyone after yourself cuz the name’s already been taken by the final boss
It’d probably make defeating Giegue a lot more satisfying though

[EarthBoundFanlol]

Me: Names everyone the cannon names on main file
Me: NAMES EVERYONE AFTER VOCALOIDS ON MY ALT FILE-

[fjdpaco]

no, this is what I wanted from the remake.

[blueyoshi]

Well, you could call yourself Sans in the Undertale demo.

[jordy]

This would be so cool as an easter egg though... like what Undertale does when you give the human one of the bosses' names

[DeterminedBlade]

“Try again, and use only capital letters”


So why are there lowercase?

[codenamexelda]

They didn't forget the feature, They just added a better one.

[cultofmrozinski]

Sell their fingers. This is unacceptable.

[churupinha]

i mean its not like giygas shows up or is ever mentioned in this demo soooo
