WHAMAGEDDON 2024

You cannot grasp the true form of George Michael's attack!

It's December. We've given up on trying to keep him locked away, he is inevitable. It's up to us now, and I pray that we're ready. It's the fifth annual Starmen.Net WHAMAGEDDON!

If this is your first time, please take a moment to review the rules. If this is your second, third, or fourth time, please review the rules anyway, you don't want to be the person who eliminates themselves on a weird technicality.

Nintendo Switch Profile Icons 2024!

EarthBound news??? In 2024??? It's more likely than you think...

All of us were tipped off to some exciting news today, shared by starmen.net discord user Sup the Robo, who linked us to this GoNintendo article showcasing twenty EarthBound icons now available to select for your Nintendo Switch profile! These icons were originally made available earlier this year and had a limited release, but thankfully for us, it seems the big N has finally granted us some gamer clemency and re-launched the icon pack until December 8th, 2024! Each icon costs 10 Nintendo Platinum points, so hurry up and cash those in before the window is up!

Take a look below at a screenshot of the "Missions & Rewards" section on the Nintendo Online section. You can also click the image to get a higher quality version.

Starting from the top right and reading right-to-left, Nintendo is letting you choose the following characters/items:

Mr. Saturn
Ness
Paula
Jeff
Poo
Pokey
Exit Mouse
Bubble Monkey
Ness on his bike
Unopened Present Box
Master Belch
Starman Junior
Frank Fly
Kraken
Mani Mani Statue
Ramblin' Evil Mushroom
Marauder Octobot
Runaway Dog
Dungeon Man (Brick Road)
Phase Distorter

Not bad choices! Let us know which ones you'd pick for your icon, and let's hope this is a sign that Nintendo hasn't completely forgotten about the franchise!

EarthBound Saga Ch. 5 - Released at Last!

An event over thirty years in the making...

A long time ago, two siblings set out to adapt the powerful story of EarthBound into a feature length film. When the first four chapters were unleashed onto the world, the fans had to know... when will Chapter 5 arrive?! Maybe you were lucky enough to catch an early cut at Camp Fangamer, PAX, or MAGFest... but it never escaped the walls of the theaters it was shown it.

Until now.

EarthBound Saga Chapter 5 Poster

www.EBSaga.com

Directed by Jazzy Benson of EarthBound U.S.A. fame, and starring the illustrious Robbie Benson of the Super Soul Bros, EarthBound Saga 5 is more than just a fan film, it's a work of art. Pop some popcorn, grab your favorite beverage, recap the first four chapters, and then settle in for a hilarious, terrifying, and messy good time!

An Apology from Starmen.Net and GPP 16 - Cave of the Past w/ vid!

Everyone, we must offer our sincerest apologies.

We have been allowing PorcBanc™ to use your creative output to power their Pays Distorter in exchange for sponsoring the EarthBound Funktastic Gameplay Summer. This has resulted in a link between Our World and Eagleland, which has been pretty neat! Unfortunately, the longer the Pays Distorter keeps the connection open, the more creative energy it requires to keep it stable.

Well, uh, long story short... we just couldn't keep up! The The PorcoTrade™ Technology Team has warned us that Our World is now experiencing a hostile merger, and that's going to be really bad for pretty much all matter in the universe. There's no way that we could have known that the amount of energy needed was unsustainable, and we never would have knowingly accepting the sponsorship if we knew it would result in the destruction of all things.

The good news is that the PorcoTrade™ Technology Team have told us that they're doing their best to prevent the merger, and that we should go ahead and finish up the game while we still can. I'm going to be hosting GPP 16 - Cave of the Past, and taking us to the end of the game, so be sure to tune in tonight on the Starman Club Twitch Channel at 6:00pm PT / 9:00pm ET!

The streams may be coming to an end, but you've still got until the end of August to get your submissions in for fabulous prizes! Check the EBFGPS2024 forum for more information!

We're so sorry about potentially bringing about the end of world, but we've definitely learned our lesson and it probably won't happen again.

EBFGPS 2024 - GPP 15 - Magicant w/ BubblyOasis!

The eight melodies have been gathered, and the EarthBound Funktastic Gameplay Summer moves inexorably towards its conclusion! BubblyOasis is diving deep within Mario's mind palace for GPP 15 - Magicant! Load those dice, watch out for bombs, and get ready to smash some statues! Well, the psychic representation of a statue that was a physical representation of evil, anyway! Tonight on the Starman Club Twitch Channel at 5:00pm PT / 8:00pm ET!

With only two Gameplay Points left, there's still time to get submissions in to show your love for EarthBound, the EFGPS, or just take a shot at some fabulous prizes!

PorcoTrade™ apologizes for the inconvenience caused by the poor connectivity in the Lost Underworld. They have assured us that all CrypticCurrency transactions are being honored, and nothing can possibly go wrong. Keep producing creative Content! Feed the machine! Increase engagement in the GPP 15 forum thread!

EBFGPS 2024 - GPP 13 - Stonehenge w/ Nightshade!

The Shadow Waves of Radio PSI have spread to the EarthBound Funktastic Gameplay Summer! Nightshade is stepping out of the DJ booth and into the streamer chair for GPP 13 - Stonehenge! It's time to bash some Starmen, fire off some bottle rockets, and chase that Sword of Kings! Tonight on the Starman Club Twitch Channel at 6:00pm PT / 9:00pm ET!

It's the home stretch, there are only four Gameplay Points between you and the end of the game! Even if you haven't started yet, it's never to late to get back in the game, play some EarthBound, and have a good Summer hanging out with your buds!

EBFGPS 2024 - GPP 12 - Deep Darkness w/ Kody NOKOLO!

It's time to hit that high and do the Megaton Walk, even if we can't stay deserted for long! We've got to make our way through the Deep Darkness to meet the Tendas, who will hopefully be able to show us where to go. If they can get over their shyness, that is...

You too can make like a (manly) fish and catch the stream tonight at 5:00pm PT / 8:00pm ET on the Starman Club Twitch Channel!

Plus, the fabulous folks at PorcBanc™ want to remind you that this incredible investment opportunity is quickly coming to a close! If you want to get in on the fun (and the funds), head over to PorcoTrade™ for a deal that'll make you squeal!
