Well Mother 1 was tricky if you lacked the good equipment and some levels, but Nes RPGs aren’t exactly known for being very friendly. Mother 2 was easy as cake (Especially with Multi-Bottle Rocket spam from Jeff) and Mother 3 is only hard if you play it on the hidden Hard mode which might have been put in there by the translation team (I forget Log in to see images!)

It can be a pain in the bum to get those rear view of some enemies though to complete the bestiary. At least until you can have Duster flip them around mid combat Log in to see images!
