Fourside is a location in EarthBound, and an unlockable stage Super Smash Bros. Melee.

In EarthBound

Fourside is the fourth town Ness and his friends visit. Being a large city, it features many things to do. There is a dinosaur museum here, a cafe, along with a theater and a very large department store. The Monotoli Building is also located here.

There is an illusion of Fourside created by the Mani-Mani Statue called Moonside. It is accessible through a door in the cafe, and mimics typical night life in the city, featuring many bright lights. People speak in a very backwards manner there, with "yes" and "no"'s meanings being swapped, and overall is very abstract.

When Ness, Jeff and Paula have defeated the five Guardian Diggers in the Gold Mine, and then go to Fourside, they are given a diamond by George Montague on the way there. When they arrive in the city, they find the Runaway Five again. The band has once again been put in debt. To pay off this debt, Ness gives the diamond he was given earlier to the owner of the theater, which once again frees the band. Later, the trio explores the department store. During their visit there however, the lights go out. Paula is kidnapped by a suspicious being during the phenomenon, and the creature then calls on Ness. Ness and Jeff go to the top of the store, and find the creature, revealed to be a Dept. Store Spook. A battle is engaged with it, and after it has been defeated, it briefly mentions someone named Monotoli, before disappearing, without any traces of Paula. When Ness and Jeff exit the store, they find a familiar face. The duo then enters the Monotoli Building, but still don't find Paula. They then enter Jackie's Cafe, but find that Mr. Monotoli doesn't come there. When they exit, they meet Everdred, whom they met earlier in Twoson, and he is badly injured. A crowd is gathered around him and he tells Ness about how he stole an item from Mr. Carpainter. He decided to sell it in the city, but got tricked by Mr. Monotoli. However, he then tells Ness Mr. Monotoli is being controlled by the Mani-Mani Statue. His last request is for Ness to check behind the counter in the cafe. However, when he does that, he and Jeff are sent to Moonside. At various points of the city, there are persons who sends the duo to the Monotoli Building. However, a man blocks the path, who will only let Ness and Jeff go past him if they bring someone whose eyebrows are connected and has a gold tooth. Ness and Jeff then meet a person, who teleports them to a building. Here, they meet an invisible man, who goes with them when they're teleported from the building. He follows them around, and when they meet the man blocking the path, he sees the invisible man as the person with connected eyebrows and a gold tooth. They leave, and the duo face the Mani-Mani statue. They defeat it, and then Ness and Jeff are returned to Fourside. However, they are in an unknown room. They exit it, and go back to the cafe. The Apple Kid then calls Ness, and sends his latest invention to him.
