* [[Polished Port]]: The MOTHER 1+ part of ''[[Compilation Rerelease|MOTHER 1+2]]'' is much more accurate of a port (and even received some updates) than the lower-quality MOTHER 2 side of it was. Despite this, it was MOTHER 2 that was the focus of the game's commercials. |

* [[Scrappy Mechanic]]: The battle system may be the sole reason why this game is less popular than its sequels outside of Japan, as it's just a bad [[Dragon Quest]] clone in terms of gameplay. (Remember that the reason Itoi decided to make a video game in the first place is because he played [[Dragon Quest]], so the similarity is inevitable.) |

* [[Sequel Displacement]]: Despite being the first Mother game, it's the most obscure. Notice how [[Earthbound|Ness]], [[Mother 3|Lucas]], and various references to their games are in the [[Super Smash Bros]] series, but all this game gets is some music (most of which are used in all three games, or at least [[Earthbound]]) and a few stickers in Brawl. |

* [[That One Boss]]: The game has only a handful of bosses, but the Dragon in Magicant stands out for his powerful normal attacks and devastating PSI. Even with a PSI-Block from Ana, it's still a very challenging fight. |
