*[[File:NessIcon(SSB4-U).png|50px|right|link=Ness (SSB4)]]'''{{SSB4|Ness}}''' (3DS: [[Unlockable character|Unlockable]]; Wii U: [[Starter character|Starter]]): a small-town boy from ''{{s|wikibound|EarthBound}}'' who saves his world from an alien invasion. He returns as an unlockable character in the 3DS version, but is once again a starter in the Wii U version. His appearance and proportions are closer to his original game; he has a thinner body and his clothing has much brighter colors. Some of his new alternate costumes also hold references to key characters from ''EarthBound''. His extra 10 grab-release frames were removed, making him no longer subject to grab-release follow-ups. Overall, most of his moves are buffed, whether they are faster or stronger, making him more viable than in the past three games. Interestingly, some of his custom moves are taken from Lucas's special moveset. Ness is one of the few veterans to be given new voice clips.{{clr}}

*[[File:LucasIcon(SSB4-U).png|50px|right|link=Lucas (SSB4)]]'''{{SSB4|Lucas}}''' ([[DLC]]): the timid protagonist of ''{{s|wikibound|Mother 3}}'' who fends off [[Porky]]'s {{s|wikibound|Pigmask Army}}. He returns as a [[Downloadable content|downloadable character]] that was made available for purchase on June 14th, 2015, the same day {{s|wikibound|EarthBound Beginnings}} was released on the Wii U Virtual Console. Like Ness, he now has brighter-colored clothing,  body proportions that match his debut title, and a constant smile. Also like Ness, some of his new alternate costumes make references to other important characters from ''Mother 3''. Similar to Ness, his extra 10 grab-release frames were removed, and despite being slightly nerfed in the transition from ''Brawl'' to ''SSB4'', he has indirect buffs from the nerfs of other characters that countered him before, which makes him play relatively better against the rest of the cast than in ''Brawl''.{{clr}}
