EarthBound (SNES)

EarthBound

Platform: SNES Year: 1994 Developer: Ape Inc. Buy: Amazon

EarthBound is a role-playing game developed by Ape Inc. and published by Nintendo. It is the sequel to the Japanese-exclusive game Mother. Although it performed well in Japan, the American release received lukewarm reception and poor sales, often attributed to its simple graphics and unique gameplay. The game follows Ness and his friends as they embark on a journey to defeat the interdimensional being Giygas.
