Earthbound, my favorite!

This is the greatest, in my humble opinion...

This is for Super Nintendo, Released in 1996, RPG. I started playing this when I first got Super Nintendo. I rented it at blockbuster repeatedly. I eventually bought the game and still love it 5 years later.

The reason I love this game are, The very cool music. I also love the Plot, Storyline, Characters and crazy Enemies.Enemies such as New Retro Age hippie, The All evil Giygas, Whirling Robo and many other far out characters!

I will Put up some screenshots for you to examine! They are on my screenshots page!

Plot- A young boy, Ness is awaken by a loud CCRRAAASSHHH!! He sets out to investigate the crash... It turns out it was a meteorite. Once there ness is confronted by a small bug (buzz buzz) sent from the future to warn him of a great evil Contaminating the earth, Giygas. He has no idea what he is up against...

Well by the way i desrcibed it above. You may be able to guess what it is about, but i will explain some more. Ness meets 3 other kids, Paula, Jeff, and Poo These are the people who will help him defeat the almighty Giygas.

Nintendo of america, and APE. These are the creators of this Wonderful game!

I'm just gonna list the Companys no specific names...

Well I am Lazy and Don't want to type them all but... NOA and APE are the main developers!

Tips and Cheats
I don't really believe in cheating but hey, for those who do here you go!

Another Way to Defeat Gygas!
Before you go into the Phase Distorter 2, remember to sell all but the essential items and replace them with "Horn of Life"s. THIS IS VERY IMPORTANT TO YOUR SURVIVAL! On the first screen, Gygas is there with Pokey in a machine. Now concentrate all fire on Pokey. Use Lifeup B on those that are getting hurt. Now when Pokey stops the fight he turns off the machine and says how spooky it looks inside Gygas. Then you go head to head with Gygas himself. Using Bash & Shoot (And of course Lifeup B) fight him until Pokey stops the fight and makes Gygas stronger. Now you can use PRAY, which wears out after 9 uses. From then on, use the "Horn of Life"s. After you run out of everybody but you and the girl it seems like a hope is lost and all you have left is spirit! Now use PRAY again until Gygas is defeated!

Rock Candy Trick
You need rock candy and a lot of sugar packets for this trick to work. Put them all in one person's inventory. Now, get into a battle. Have that person use the rock candy in battle. They will sprinkle sugar on the rock candy and it will increase that person's stats. But the trick is, when you do it in battle with the sugar packet, the packet gets consumed, but the rock candy remains! Continue to do this and you can make all your characters invincible!

Here are a few usefull tips not cheats... really...

Easy Level Gains
To get a very easy level up, go to the Scaraba Desert. Walk around until you see a little red bug which is the Criminal Caterpillar. Try walking all the way to the bottom, straight back up, and looking to the right of the gate. It is very weak and will run from you so all you have to do is chase it around till you enter a fight. You will automatically win and you should receive around 28K exp. points! Keep finding and fighting him untill you get to the level you want. If you get weak, go to the hotel and sleep to regain your health.

Easy Money
There are several ways in this game to earn some quick cash. One way is to raise chickens. First, buy them for $12 and keep them. Wait till they turn into chickens and then sell them With the "For sale sign" for $110! Two places where you can get free eggs are Happy Happy Village and a monkey in Tarah Rama's Cave.Also buy them in Twoson for 12$. Another way to get money is to buy Broken Cannons for Jeff in Scarabia and then go Twoson. Keep sleeping in Paula's house until Jeff turns them all into Spectrum Beams, and then sell them for a nice profit. While you're waiting in Twoson, go to the man sitting in the hotel and talk to him until he gives you 50 bucks.
