'''''Mother''''' (マザー, ''Mazā''), often called '''''EarthBound Zero''''' by fans, is a classic RPG and the first game in the [[EarthBound (universe)|''Mother''/''EarthBound'' series]].  It set the quirky, off-beat tone and concepts for which it and its sequels, [[EarthBound (game)|EarthBound]] and [[Mother 3]], are well-known.  It follows the adventures of a boy named Ninten, who is superficially similar to [[Ness]], as he seeks to investigate a series of paranormal activities across rural America caused by the antagonistic alien conqueror Giygas (named "Giegue" in the unreleased English prototype version).
 
==In the [[Super Smash Bros. (universe)|''Super Smash Bros.'' series]]==
*Numerous tracks from ''Mother'' appear between the three games:
**The two music pieces featured on the [[Eagleland: Onett|Onett]] stage, known as "Mother" and "Mother 2" in this capacity, originated in ''Mother'' as "Bein' Friends" and "Pollyanna" respectively.
**More songs from ''Mother'' were introduced in [[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]], these being "Snowman" and "Humouresque of a Little Dog".  Another song, ''Eight Melodies'', was originally planned to appear but was cut from the final game.
**In ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl'', Ness and Lucas's [[Fanfare|victory fanfare]] is a sped-up snippet of the opening theme of ''Mother''.
*A [[Starman (EarthBound)|Starmen]], one of the main enemies in ''Mother'' appears in ''Super Smash Bros. Melee'' as a [[trophy]].
*The [[Franklin Badge]] from ''Mother'' appears in ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl'' as an [[item]] and a trophy.  In addition, the main characters of ''Mother'', Ninten, Lloyd, Ana, and Teddy appear in ''Brawl'' as [[stickers]].
*The [[special move]]s [[PK Fire]], [[PK Freeze]], [[PK Thunder]] and [[PSI Magnet]], first appeared in ''Mother''.
