==Physical appearance== | |||
Ninten weighs 42kg, is 152cm tall and has blood type A.<ref>[[:File:SomeNintenInfo.jpg|Part of Ninten's Mother Encyclopedia Entry]]</ref> He has short, black hair, although he usually wears a red cap with a blue brim, likely due to his interest to 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 makes a portion of his legs visible. Red blushes can also be seen on his cheek on his clay model, being a typical property of several Mother characters. | |||
Ninten is often compared with [[Ness]], whom appears to be a rough clone of him. Because of this, Ninten often gets overshadowed by him, as [[EarthBound]] and Ness are overall much more known. 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 all is due to a Japanese Mother commercial where these features were added. | |||
Even though Ninten and Ness share many similarities, they have several differing qualities, mainly being visible due to their official clay models. The brim of Ninten's cap is pointed to the left of his head, whereas Ness's points to the right, although Ness's brim is directed aback in his american clay model for unknown reasons, being slightly pointed to the left. Ninten's forelocks have a more spiky look, while Ness's are more rounded, although his american model has been altered to be more spiky-looking. While Ninten has red socks and blue shoes, Ness does instead wear white socks and red shoes. Ness does additionally also carry around a backpack, whereas Ninten doesn't. | |||

He was a normal boy living in the town of [[Podunk]] until a mysterious doll and several lamps started attacking him and his family. After that, Ninten learned PSI and started out on a journey across America to learn the [[Eight Melodies]] in order to defeat Giegue. Along the way he met [[Ana]], a PSI wielding girl who later becomes his girlfriend, [[Lloyd]], a boy who attacks using guns and [[Bottle Rockets]], and [[Teddy]], the leader of the [[Bla-Bla Gang]]. Eventually, Ninten ultimately faces off with [[Giygas|Giegue]], and sends him off to space [[EarthBound|for another 10 years]]. | |||
