Ness is the spunky young lad you lead across scorching deserts battling offensive piles of puke lead by a ragtag team of aliens bent on world domination. Yes, that is Ness. Many may recognize him from his role in Super Smash Bros. and Super Smash Bros. Melee as the baseball bat wielding, psychic youngster. However, Ness was around long before his N64 debut on the Nintendo battlefields. And for all those who are thinking of the SNES classic "Earthbound", well...he was around well before then too. "Earthbound Zero", a NES game starring "Ninten" was arguably the first appearance of Ness. Sure, it wasn't the Ness we all know and love, but you do an image search for Ninten from Earthbound Zero and then you tell me that WASN'T the exact make and look for the Ness we all know, then you can prepar

(That last sentence didn't sound quite as intimidating as once thought. In fact, ewwww......) Back on the topic at hand, Ness is a teenage from Onett who embarks on a journey to all 8 "Your Sanctuary" locations in the hopes of taking down the all-powerful Giygas. What may sound like a typical, ho-hum, cliche RPG story is well....twisted. Along the way, there are no knights in shining armor, there are no dastardly and wicked villains that bring about a sense of hatred and the enemies and bosses along the way aren't the ones you will recall from any Final Fantasy game. In the place of these RPG-mainstay positions is a debt-ridden band on tour, a cult devoted to the color "blue" and an assortment of enemies ranging from a ruler-wielding hippie to a clumsy robot that relies on eating sandwiches for energy. Yes, this is DEFINENTLY NOT the type of RPG you are accustomed to. And it's because of this that Earthbound has a cult of followers and why Ness has had at least an inkling of success in the Summer Contest. Ness represents the crazy, wild game of Earthbound and while he has zero character development and can only express himself with a smile, that's quite enough to give him SOME success in the Summer Contest.
