'''''EarthBound Beginnings'''''(Japanese: '''{{tt|マザー|Mazā}}''' '''''Mother''''', stylized as '''MOTHER'''), is a 1989 roleplaying video game originally released on the [[Nintendo Entertainment System|Famicom]]. It was developed by [[Ape Inc.]] and was published by [[Nintendo]], and is the first game in the [[Mother (series)|''EarthBound'' trilogy]]. Originally created by Japanese copywriter [[Shigesato Itoi]], ''EarthBound Beginnings'' follows the travels of four children — [[Ninten]], [[Lloyd]], [[Ana]], and [[Teddy]] — and their attempts to stop an intergalatic alien's invasion of Earth. Gameplay takes place within an overworld consisting of Americana themes and tropes, where random encounters trigger turn-based battles with menu interfaces.

''Mother'' was released to positive reception and commercial success in Japan, although some noted its difficulty. In 1990, Nintendo of America commenced and completed localization of the game under the name ''Earth Bound''. However, the release of the [[Super Nintendo Entertainment System]] and other difficulties resulted in the game not being released for the NES. Prototype cartridges of the localized version were discovered and uploaded to the Internet in 1998. ''Mother'' would later be succeeded by ''[[Mother 2]]'' and ''[[Mother 3]]'', of which only ''Mother 2'' would be released internationally as ''[[EarthBound]]''. ''Mother'' was later part of the Game Boy Advance compilation ''[[Mother 1+2]]'', and would finally be released in North America on the Wii U Virtual Console as ''EarthBound Beginnings'', following the original prototype version.
