The purpose of this blog is to get you to play Earthbound. Well some of you are like "But I trashed my SNES 30 years ago" so get an emulator and an Earthbound ROM. The first time I saw Ness in Super Smash Bros., I thought "Wow what a dumb looking character his game must suck". Well I was wrong all I can say is wow. At first the game is slow like all RPG's but then the game gets very deep and fun. There are endless places to explore and even more enemies to fight. The enemies have hilarious names like violent roach and master belch. Eventually you meet 3 other kids to assist you on your journey (2 of them just happen to have psychic powers just like Ness. In the game you fight a wide array of bosses ranging from a gangster with a knife to a gold statue that makes illusions. Every thing from Earthbound that's in brawl is here (like a village full of mister Saturns)Earthbound is one of the longest games I've ever played, I've put 24 hours in it and I'm only a little bit more that half-way through.This game is incredibly deep, has tons of play time and has everything every good RPG has I really recommend you play this it one of my favorite games now. I liked this game so much i found an English version of the sequel Mother 3 after searching for 5 minutes XD
Like it says in my profile, i found out that my dad had an Earthbound cartridge up in his box of SNES stuff in the attic, and have been playing the epicness within it. It can be a tough game for newer gamers because it seems like games are getting easier these days o.o
Great game! I've been waiting for it to come to the Virtual Console for years. Nintendo's attorneys are blocking the release due to fears of lawsuits for samples used in the music.
