History Funny / MOTHER

[[AC:VideoGame/{{Mother 4}}]]
* There's a [[FreezeFrameBonus brief moment]] in [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-qtQWUF6-Co the official gameplay trailer]] when Travis comes across a dumpster while he's dragging a fallen ally behind him- and then glances at the load weighing him down as if contemplating the obvious.

* ''The Barrier Trio strikes one final Barrier Pose! -- It was [[CrowningMomentofAwesome spectacular]].''

* In Ellay, a woman offers to buy Ninten a drink. Accepting results in [[spoiler: [[RealityEnsues Ninten and friends getting arrested for underage drinking.]]]]

* The dungeon of five giant moles who ''all'' tell you they're the third strongest.

* Giygas. To some, [[NightmareFuel he's horrifying]]. To others, he's so over the top and cliche (or just plain strange to the point of SurrealHumor) that [[NightmareRetardant he loses all scariness factor]] and [[NarmCharm becomes one of, if not the funniest part of the game.]]

* At the end of Chapter 2, Kumatora accidentally triggers a trapdoor that sends herself, Duster and Wess plummeting down a pit.

* A particularly amusing moment in the otherwise bleak endgame: [[spoiler:Dr. Andonuts rolling Porky around in the Absolutely Safe Capsule.]]
* Another funny one happens at the very end, just before [[spoiler: the world is destroyed for good]]. As [[spoiler: the Nowhere Islands are ravaged by cataclysms]], the Pigmask's Airship attempts to escape while the Pigmask's theme plays...and is struck down by a falling meteor, with [[LettingTheAirOutOfTheBand the music distorting and stopping]].

* In Ellay, a woman offers to buy Ninten a drink. Accepting results in [[spoiler:Ninten and friends getting arrested for underage drinking.]]

* "[[DiedStandingUp He's passed out.]]"
** [[FridgeHorror "Don't come back here. You'll kick up the mold spores."]]

* The Pigmask Guard asleep on duty at the start of Chapter 7.
* Roaming the highways in Chapter 7 ...on an animate coffee table.
** An animate coffee table shaped like a Mr. Saturn that whinnies like a horse.
* ''The Barrier Trio strikes one final Barrier Pose! --- It was [[CrowningMomentofAwesome spectacular]].''

* The most depressed video game enemy in history, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bPaLaKygHBo the Negative Man]]. A ZeroEffortBoss, Negative Man does almost nothing but moan and cry that he's going to lose. He actually can attack, but he does it so rarely that many players never see him attack at all. And even then, the attack is pathetically weak. It's funny in a BlackComedy kind of way.
* In Chapter 3, Wess, accidentally nudging the remote to Salsa's shock collar and Salsa straight-up ''lunging'' at it, stamping the pavement with it.
* The page quote for DirtyOldMan.
-->'''Mike:''' I can't keep burdening Lisa forever, but I do have a Happy Box and nice-bodied girls like Nan and Linda to keep me company, so I'm pretty happy in my own way. Nyahahahaha!\\
'''Linda:''' I'm sorry, Mike, but that's called sexual harassment these days.\\
'''Mike:''' ...This is a hard world we live in now. How disappointing.

-->"Don't look, now! [[SuspiciouslySpecificDenial I'm not going to stick my butt out or anything like that, though.]]"
* [[TalkingWithSigns "Your fly's open! XYZ!"]] Cue Lucas' [[LuminescentBlush reaction]], then...
** "You're much manlier now!"
** Potentially gets even funnier when you take into account that this sign appears near the very end of the game. [[FridgeLogic Exactly how long has Lucas' fly been open?]]
** Later in the next challenge: "Your fly's not open! Don't worry about it!"

* Chapter 8. The [[spoiler:Empire Porky]] Building. The ''toilet dungeon.''
** And of course the Men's Room Sign enemy. Who inexplicably knows PK Starstorm.

* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gMGtIcn024k&feature=related Kumatora is rather... ''insistent'' that Lucas and Boney take a shower.]]
* This bit in Chapter 2, when Kumatora accidentally triggers a trapdoor that sends herself, Duster and Wess plummeting down a pit.
-->'''Wess''': PRINCESSSSSSSSS!!!\\
'''Kumatora''': My bad.
* At one point in Osohe Castle in Chapter 2, Duster is required to drop a heavy ball from a statue onto a cracked spot on the floor. Dashing into the statue from the opposite side will allow Duster to continue as normal. Dashing into it from the side of the cracked floor, on the other hand, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AX8eiRa-wXU&t=14s causes Duster to get smooshed]], resulting in a GameOver.

--> (''Cue LuminescentBlush from entire group'') "What is this feeling?!"

* Any time you use an oxygen machine when you're underwater. Just so you know, the "oxygen machines" look like mermen with huge feminine lips. And they give you oxygen by kissing you. The whole party blushes in an embarrassed way when you're done.
* Talking to Nana, the girl by the beach. Before talking to her, she warns Lucas that everyone hates her for talking too much, and when you ignore her warnings, she goes of on a long talk about music and destiny, after which it cuts to black and back to the screen, where Lucas and Boney are dizzy from listening to her.
* The Pigmask Guard asleep on duty at the start of Chapter 7.
* "Okay... one... two... THREE! ''(Everyone runs away)'' ...Is when we run, got it? ''(Looks behind her)'' Oh. Damn. They're fast." ''(Runs away.)''
* [[ContinuityNod The Mischievous Mole felt]] [[VideoGame/EarthBound homesick]]!
* ''The [[RunningGag Rope Snake]].'' When you give an insignificant item that you use three times in the game emotions, HilarityEnsues.
* Also, the scene in Chapter 4 where [[TeamPet Boney]] dresses up like a kid to get into the nightclub.
---> "Shake! ...Oh, sorry about that. I just get that instinct when I look at you..."
** Also great is when the bouncers reject Lucas and Boney, they walk away sad and dejected, only to immediately walk back with Boney in his PaperThinDisguise.

* Don't forget the [[RunningGag doorknob]]!
* The present boxes that don't offer anything of value, not even a ChestMonster, can be a treat.
--> "Lucas opened the present." ''(Music plays)'' "You heard a mambo/reggae/waltz rhythm. Ah." \\
"Lucas opened the present." ''(Fireworks go off)'' "There were fireworks inside. Ah." \\
"Lucas opened the present." ''(The present box [[ToiletHumour farts]])'' "An indescribable smell lingers in the air."
* Every single sign ever.
--> '''Preserve our beautiful scenery! [[HypocriticalHumor Please refrain from posting signs.]]
* "[[DiedStandingUp He's passed out.]]"
** [[FridgeHorror "Don't come back here. You'll kick up the mold spores."]]
* "No problem here... problem here."
* "Thank you for taking the time to read this sign. This sign loves you."
* When you find out the real difference between the green and regular trains: [[spoiler:The green one gives you the the joy of riding a green-colored train. The other doesn't.]]
* ''The Barrier Trio strikes one final Barrier Pose! --- It was [[CrowningMomentofAwesome spectacular]].''
* When the group leaves Saturn Valley via Rope Snake holding onto a bird cage. Boney has to hold onto Lucas' shorts, causing his bare butt to be on display.
* There's something hilarious about how Duster, who has a paralyzed leg, attacks by ''kicking.''
* If you go around and read the graves near the beginning of the game, there will be grave puns. Don't laugh too hard, however, because this takes place in a [[LamePun "grave"]] situation.
* After you defeat the Forlorn Junk Man, a Pigmask arrives and hurriedly tells you to get in his Pork Bean. Once everyone is inside, he says that if anyone needs to use the bathroom, they just have to hold it in for now, which makes [[ToiletHumor Boney whine in response.]]

* Moonside. [[AcidTripDimension All of it]].

* During the "LetsPlay/TwitchPlaysEarthBound", Dad called once in a while (every 2 hours) to see if we were going to take a rest. What the chat ending up saying after a while of that was: "DAAAAAAD" and "dad pls" Some people even made up little conversations for Dad and Ness.

* In a masochistic CrossesTheLineTwice sort of way, getting killed by one of the [[WhenTreesAttack exploding tree]] enemies, particularly if you did [[DoubleKnockoutwisely save one for last but didn't mash A fast enough to fast-forward the battle text]].

* In a masochistic CrossesTheLineTwice sort of way, getting killed by one of the [[WhenTreesAttack exploding tree]] enemies, particularly if you did wisely save one for last [[DoubleKnockout but didn't mash A fast enough]].

* Anything with the [[RidiculouslyCuteCritter Mr. Saturns]], really. Zoom!
