i called them by what  i feel like. usually if im conversing with english speakers (sometimes the name "mother" by itself can confuse people and i dont always feel like explaining the origin of the name), then i use the whole earthbound zero thing but if not then i'll use "mother". if you're going by the proper names then it should actually be "mother, mother 2 and mother 3" or "earthbound zero, earthbound, earthbound 2". i personally just go by earthbound zero, earthbound and mother 3.

i just use the demiforce dumped rom since they got it from an english prototype of the game. i'm not so hyped about the fangame since what i've seen, it didn't feel earthbound-y for me but that's just me c:
