This is from an interview which was originally posted on July 22, but the information is still relevant…
“I was happy to find out that was possible. But games demand many more lines of dialogue despite the fact that the main characters don’t talk, so I couldn’t keep making them. That’s why I felt deep down after making three of them, ‘Well, that was a neat experience.’…Yes, that’s right (no more plans for Earthbound games).” – Shigesato Itoi, Earthbound designer
