MOTHER 3: Fan Translation, Control, and Preservation
This exhibit explores the lifecycle and digital preservation challenges of the MOTHER 3 fan translation project.
It includes three key artifacts: the original Japanese ROM, the 2008 cease-and-desist letter from Nintendo, and the README documentation produced by the fan community.
Through these materials, the exhibit investigates issues of authorship, community ethics, intellectual property, and the fragile nature of preserving digital-born texts.
