This beautiful design encapsulates the feeling of new beginnings in the MOTHER series, which over time would branch into games that captured the hearts of a diverse audience across generations. The pocket in the cover interior is printed with images of two main characters, Ninten and Ana, and pixelated text reading “Since 1989.” The two bookmark strings are brown to complete the cover’s warm color scheme. The cover interior, “butterfly stopper” pen holders, and bookmarks’ charms are all red.
The design stood out compared to standard game boxes of its day, and its appeal has only grown over the years.
The design matches the groundbreakingly simple original cover of the game, with a large golden logo over a red background. This is the first Hobonichi Techo cover to ever feature a design from the first game in the MOTHER trilogy.
This techo cover is based on the Shigesato Itoi’s 1989 game for the Famicom, MOTHER.
