crazy to think that the Mother games are the first Nintendo OSTs we're ever getting on vinyl
but then again, maybe it does make sense
There's this, which came out when the Famicom launched in Japan (repressed recently), but yeah. Kinda crazy its the Mario theme and Mother 1 and 2. Hopefully Nintendo is watching this Western interest...

I think I just blue myself.If we could just get the Silent Hill series put to vinyl that would be great. Please.
Just FYI the recent repress of the Super Mario 7" is a counterfeit and afaik Nintendo hasn't been involved with that one, so all credit for bringing legit Nintendo OSTs on vinyl to the West should currently be given to Ship To Shore Phono Co.
Quite a few VGM titles (including a few from Nintendo I believe) were released back in the 80s on various Japanese labels. Most of them are pretty hard to find, though - especially in the West.
Fuuck. Mother 2 pre order is $40. Ship to Store's twitter says it's because licencing was high, and shipping will be low to balance it. Still. That's gonna hurt tomorrow.
Any idea when the preorder goes live? I have a meeting today and don't want to miss it!
Both MOTHER + MOTHER 2 goes live at 1PM EST
The same time as BIT.TRIP. SighBoth MOTHER + MOTHER 2 goes live at 1PM EST
NOTE: THIS PRODUCT WILL ONLY SHIP TO NORTH AMERICA AND EUROPE.
Racists.
Most likely licensing restrictions by Nintendo
Got my vinyl of The Order 1886 yesterday. Plan on taking it with me to Seattle and getting it autographed by the composer Jason Graves.
Mother 2 preorder is up
Seems to be hanging up at checkout.
Same here. Can't complete my order.
Well these aren't limited, so everything should be good.

500 copies on Translucent Red

Don't see anything like that for Mother 2, though, so maybe it isn't?
Mine went through no problem on mobile site. But, yeah, colored options seem sold out for Mother 1 unless that's just their store being buggy.
Folks who ordered the Mother 2 soundtrack, if you go to your Storenvy page, and go to purchases, does it say "item no longer available" for anyone else?

I had to resist buying Mother 2. I got all the way to the end of checkout and closed the tab. I really don't need to drop $46 on this.
Posted the same thing earlier ITT. Even a compilation of the collaborations of Akira Yamaoka with Elizabeth McGlynn would make so happy.If we could just get the Silent Hill series put to vinyl that would be great. Please.
Konami probably has the final say on thisPosted the same thing earlier ITT. Even a compilation of the collaborations of Akira Yamaoka with Elizabeth McGlynn would make so happy.
I'm fluctuating between unfathomable sadness and INCOHERENT RAGE over the shipping restrictions.
Guess I'll have to buy it late, 2nd hand, and for twice the price on eBay ;-;
Haven't played the Mother games yet (I know, I know) but couldn't pass up the Mother 2 vinyl. Big fan of the OST and the artists who influenced it. Passed on Mother 1 as it's not an OST.
Anyone know if iam8bit will combine shipping? Planning to pick up all 3 Rare soundtracks next paycheck
And knowing me and my lack of discipline probably the Bit Trip and Super Hexagon ones after
