Difference between revisions of "Empire Porky Building"

The Lobby floor of the Empire Porky Building contains a [[hot spring]] and a [[Mole Cricket]] shop. An elevator that travels between all of the floors is located on this floor, but it is broken upon the first visit. After [[Lucas]] hears [[Leder]]'s speech, the elevator is somewhat repaired, only allowing access to the 24th floor.

The 24th floor of the Empire Porky Building contains a small lobby and a stage. A crowd of [[DCMC]] fans including the [[Fierce Pork Trooper|Pork Trooper]] can be found in the lobby. When Lucas's party enters the concert hall, DCMC welcomes them, and [[Duster]] temporarily becomes the lead character. He then performs onstage with the DCMC. The power supply in the room then shuts off, stopping the concert and upsetting the fans. [[Porky]] then calls Lucas's party to the 100th floor.

Upon climbing the stairs, Lucas's party finds the [[chauffeur]] who drove them to New Pork City in his [[limousine]]. He explains that in order to meet Porky, Lucas must compete in a few games against [[Master Mini-Porky]] to prove he is worthy to meet him. The first game is Super Whack-a-Mole, a simple whack-a-mole game. If the player hits the man instead of a mole, they lose. To progress, Lucas must hit a total of 9 moles, allowing Master Mini-Porky to win by a single mole, otherwise he is deemed too frightening to meet Porky.

After finally arriving at the true 100th floor, Porky taunts Lucas's party again, and they find the floor to be a trap. The Natural Killer Cyborg then attacks the party. After it is defeated, Lucas's party enters a long hallway, in which the title screen music from {{vg|Mother}} plays. The next room contains a small body of water with a boat shaped like a house in it. Along the body of water are various objects from [[EarthBound]], such as the [[sesame seed|sesame seeds]], [[Tessie (EarthBound)|Tessie]], and an [[ATM]], while a variation on [[Pollyanna]] plays as the background music. Upon reaching the door at the end, Lucas finds Porky. He then asks him to be his friend, but no matter his answer, he then explodes. A horde of [[Mecha-Porky{{!}}Porky robots]] then fall from the ceiling. After defeating them, more drop down. The [[DCMC]] then destroys them, and the villagers of [[Tazmily Village]] all gather around. The real Porky welcomes all of them, and tells Lucas it is a race to the final needle. An elevator in the floor then drops down Lucas's party, and [[Flint]] with them.

*The Empire Porky Building's name comes from [[wikipedia:Empire State Building|the Empire State Building]] on New York City. The city of which the Empire Porky Building is in is likewise based on New York City.

*A total of four unused objects intended for the 100th floor remained in the final version of the game. All of them did in fact appear on the 100th floor, however, they used the graphics originally used in EarthBound, while the unused versions were redrawn in Mother 3's style.

*[http://earthboundcentral.com/m3script/690.html Unused] [http://earthboundcentral.com/m3script/694.html text] [http://earthboundcentral.com/m3script/696.html implies] there were other floors planned in addition to the ones in the game.
