His favorite food is Salsbury steak and his favorite thing is Rockin' (hence the name of his special move in EarthBound, PK Rockin'). He possesses strong psychic powers called Psychokinesis (hence the abbreviation PK) that he had possessed his whole life, and in the year 199X, utilizes his abilities to defeat a vengeful alien known as Giygas (although Giygas's motivation for revenge is only known from playing ''[[Mother|MOTHER]]''). He is the successor of [[Ninten]], the star of the original MOTHER (often called "EarthBound Zero"), the game in the [[EarthBound (universe)|''Mother'' series]] before ''[[EarthBound]]'' and the first out of the trilogy. Some say Ninten and Ness are identical, however, the games take place in different settings. | ||

His natural curiosity leads him to investigate the crash site, where he meets his neighbor [[Porky]] and an alien named Buzz Buzz. Buzz Buzz tells him that he is the boy who will save the world, and sends him on a mission to collect eight melodies that tie together the Earth's power and become friends with two other girls and one boy. He eventually meets the talented girl Paula, the boy scientist [[Jeff Andonuts]] and the eastern prince [[Poo]], who form a dream team to rid the world of Giygas' alien threat. By recording and collecting the eight melodies using his Sound Stone, Ness draws the energy of the earth into himself and achieves the strength needed for the four of them to prevail. Five years after [[EarthBound]]'s release, Ness would make a surprise appearance in [[Super Smash Bros.]] and continue to be playable in the series, carrying his legacy. | ||

Paula and Poo's moves [[PK Fire]], [[PK Thunder]], and [[PK Starstorm]] would be borrowed by Ness for combat in the Super Smash Bros. series. | |||
