| '''''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).

| |
| *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''.
