Ninten weighs 42 kg, is 152 cm tall, and has blood type A.<ref name=SomeNintenInfo/> He has short, black hair, although he usually wears a red cap with a blue brim, likely due to his interest in baseball, making his hair unable to be seen in-game; in his clay model, he is also shown to have visible forelocks. He wears a striped t-shirt, with the colors blue and yellow; however, the t-shirt of his Japanese sprite was originally colored blue with one black stripe. He also wears blue shorts, blue shoes with white edges, and a pair of red socks, which together make a portion of his legs visible. Pink blushes can also be seen on his cheeks on his papier-mâché model, being a typical feature of several ''Mother'' characters.

Ninten is often compared with [[Ness]], whom appears to be based on Ninten. Because of this, some people consider them to be the same person and Ninten is often overshadowed by him, as ''[[EarthBound]]'' and Ness are overall much more known. Ness's resemblance to Ninten was left as ambiguous by [[Shigesato Itoi]] intentionally as he intended for players to decide if they're the same character or different<ref>[http://yomuka.wordpress.com/2009/04/30/famitsu-06191992/ Weekly Famitsu – June 19, 1992]</ref> while also recommending for players who played the first game to think of them as the same. In the fan community, Ninten is usually depicted with a bandana around his neck and with more variety in the coloring of his shirt, in order to distinguish him from Ness, which is due to his appearance in a Japanese commercial for ''Mother''[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yQUN7QAnMp0] where these features were added.

When entering the [[Choucream Zoo]], Ninten will encounter many hostile animals and walk in a snake-like pattern before reaching the [[Choucream Zoo#Superintendent's Office|Superintendent's Office]] in the eastern portion of the zoo. Here, he will engage a battle with [[Starman Jr.]] after examining a capsule-like object on the building's top floor. When it has been defeated, the odd sound that is revealed to be the reason for the animals' strange behavior disappears, turning the zoo into its original state again. Within one of the zoo's fences resides a monkey, who sings the third melody when a sign attached to the fence is read.

Even though no reward will be given from the mayor for the deed, a cave to the east of the zoo will become accessible. Inside of the cave, Ninten will come across a strange rock-like object, that telepathically will ask him a vague riddle-like question. When he finds a corresponding answer in his great-grandfather's diary, and then says it out loud, he will be transported to the mysterious land of {{ebb|Magicant}}. Upon entering a [[Queen Mary's Castle|castle]] in the northern portion of Magicant, Ninten will meet the the governing figure of the land, [[Queen Mary]]. She requests him to retrieve the eight notes of a song, which she herself has forgotten, and then return to sing it for her. Ninten then exits Magicant through an [[Magicant Underground|underground maze]], and is sent to another rock-like object located inside of a cave.

After exiting the cave, he discovers that he has been teleported to the outskirts of [[Merrysville]]. Inside of the town's [[Twinkle Elementary School|elementary school]], Ninten meets a boy hiding in a trash can on the school's roof. He refuses to come out of the bin, fearing that the other students will continue to pick on him, but eventually gathers enough courage to leave the bin, and then introduces himself as [[Lloyd]], followed by him saying that he would like to fly a [[Bottle Rocket]]. In a [[Sweet's Little Factory|factory]] to the south, Ninten manages to find a Bottle Rocket, being located in a trash can, which he picks up. When shown to Lloyd, he becomes excited for finally having a Bottle Rocket in his possession, and thereafter leads Ninten to the school's lab, and does after a failed experiment, involving the Bottle Rocket, join Ninten on his journey.
