While digital marketplaces have made it easier than ever to access old video games, the reality is, there are many games that are not available legally to gamers. Take Mother 3, for example. The Earthbound sequel released exclusively in Japan on Nintendo's Game Boy Advance back in 2006. Despite frequent requests from fans, it has never been offered in any form in North America. Unofficial fan translations have made their way online over the years, but a Nintendo Switch release still remains the goal for some. Mother 3 is once again trending on Twitter, as gamers voiced their hopes that a release will one day come.

Some think it's for the best, however.
