;Classic Mode
:''Hailing from Onett, a small town in [[Eagleland]], this young boy's ordinary looks hide his psychic powers. Ness fought against the evil Giygas in [[EarthBound]], and in Smash Bros. he unleashes some of the same [[PSI]] moves. Watch out for PK Thunder, a guided attack that can also launch Ness like a rocket!
;All-Star Mode
:''Ness may have psychic powers, but that doesn't mean he shies away from getting physical. His side smash packs a real punch if you hit enemies with the end of his bat, and it can even deflect projectiles! His up and down smashes also have a lot of range—Ness can land his strikes with ease!
===Super Smash Bros. for Wii U===
;Final Smash
:''In EarthBound, this PSI ability belonged to Poo, the Crown Prince of Dalaam and one of Ness's friends. Ness must have learned it especially for Smash Bros.! The attack makes a shower of meteors fall onto the stage, damaging any foe it hits. While the attack's in progress, Ness is invincible and can adjust the meteors' trajectory.
===Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS and Wii U===
Ness reappears as the sole representative of the Mother Franchise. His moveset is largely unchanged, but with considerable buffs, making him a much stronger character. His overall appearance has changed as well, wearing brighter colors and his overall head being more proportional to his body, as well as losing the rosy cheek accents that were there previously. He retains [[PK Starstorm]] as his Final Smash, and gains [[PK Freeze]] as a custom special move.

==Trivia==
*The clay models for Ness and Paula for the US release of EarthBound are different from the original Japanese Mother 2 models.
*Ness's resemblance to [[Ninten]] was left as ambiguous by [[Shigesato Itoi]] intentionally.<ref>[http://yomuka.wordpress.com/2009/04/30/famitsu-06191992/ Weekly Famitsu – June 19, 1992]</ref>
