Though the storyline of the game is, for the most part, the same as the Game Boy Advance release, several things were changed from the planned Nintendo 64 game. For one, ''EarthBound 64'' was intended to be placed some ten years after ''EarthBound'', in 200X, rather than the unstated amount of time the final game occurs after its prequel. [citation needed] The length of the game's story, in time, also was altered, with ''EarthBound 64'' having 12 chapters spread over the course of ten years, each with their own main character, unlike the final game, which only has eight chapters spread over the course of three years. (During the switch from the 64DD add-on to the N64 console, the 12-chapter system was reduced to only 9 chapters.) The overall tone of the story was intended to be darker than the final product was. Particularly the final boss was intended to include no dialogue and to be more of a terrifying experience.
