Earthbound truly is a wonderful game about a kid who climbed up a cliff the day after a meteor, went back home and got a letter from a poor fat boy who went missing, who then proceeded to live a normal and uneventful life.
He was given a cosmic destiny and responded by eating a couple sandwiches, going to his secret spot and using his immense psychic powers to rewrite reality so that none of it ever happened. Except Porky being gone. Judging by how the cops treated Ness, they probably lured him into a house where they -molested- arrested him.
4 children named A, A, A, and A saved the world by eating a sandwich, climbing a cliff, standing in a corner next to a void, not having a problem, and saying '69'
+Joe Johnson Really? Be cause me and my step-brother would have sseN come home and have his mother make his favorite food, water. And then out his pet ("water"), skip foward to the end of the game where he is saving the world with his best friends, wAter,Water and wAtEr.
@@rinor3303 I first encountered Giygas at 11 years old or so. I stayed up playing EB past my bedtime. I lost horribly several times. The nightmares were real. All the regret! It was a virtually sleepless night. I never expected that... Even as an adult... There are horror games far less scary and demented than that.

I like to interpret this story as a boy named A finding the meteor, being told about Giygas, and given a destiny to save the world. ...but instead of setting off on his journey to find the three chosen and defeat him, he instead took a journey to the top of the tallest cliff in Onett, where he began screaming at the heavens. Screaming, incoherently, until his lungs nearly gave out. And then the heavens answered, screaming in turn, and giving him immense spiritual power, which A then used, to rewrite reality so Giygas never existed.
So let me get this straight. This is a story about a boy who had to save the world one fateful day when his annoying neighbor was knocking on his door and bugged him to check out a meteorite. They meet a star who got bodied by a fly who got bodied by Pokey's mom and tells A about a prophesy about an apple with the ability to decide the future and to shatter the nightmare rock returning piece to the world. So he sets off to pull some money out of his bank account, get some sandwiches, and runs to his secret corner where he played with some numbers, went to bed, and his neighbor's little brother comes around giving A a letter about playing tag...
la epica aventura de A, un chico que su mascota se llama A, su comida preferida es A y su cosa favorita es A. Junto a una chica llamada A, un niño inteligente llamado A y el principe A detuvieron a Giygas de destruir el futuro en 1969.
Misc. Info: The cause for the debug menu to appear is the same reason as why the tent glitch happens, which some have mentioned already. Checking out-of-bounds areas may lead to the game reading from unintended areas.
Breaking news! A boy wakes up in the middle of the night to find a meteor. He immediately runs over to a bakery and buys a loaf of bread. He uses the carbs from the bread to climb up a seemingly impossible hill. He looks out into the water, and suddenly two members of the Minch family go missing, and the sharks are suddenly disassembled. More tonight at 6.
My finger is about to fall off… I've been spamming the L button for an hour and only got one result… my dad telling me to take a break. How do you do this
nobody ever talks about this game's ending. it's so weird to me. like it fits the game perfectly, kinda keeping up with it's endeeringly quirky cinematic vibe, while beeing a bit earie. but like this cliffhanger is NEVER mentioned again in mother 3. did ness just like die inbetween mother 2 and 3?
All 3 have really big cliffhangers, but Mother 3 at least answers what happened to Porky. Ness just kinda does his own thing I guess after the events of his game, much like Ninten did. Even Mother 1 had a bigger cliffhanger than the sequel.
porky vanishes (he's setting up the weird time machine shit in mother 3) and ness just lives out the rest of his life normally (as normal as he can live it because the dude could fight off the entire US army with his mind), maybe wondering where pokey went
More like local boy and his three friends talk to a bee then defeat a random alien then the boy buys sandwiches eats them goes up a mountain then gets a letter about playing tag from his friend
Also, when I tested this glitch out in Onett several years ago I was told by I think mooooh and nitrodon that getting on the cliff without a skip sandwich is definitely TAS only. Pirohiko joined the chat that night, but couldn't help as much. The main problem is that it's a horizontal wall, instead of diagonal or sloping. I think I wedged in without the sandwich, but getting through requires much more speed. One other thing. Does this trick really require two controllers? I'm heading to work soon so I can't read the articles in full, but I did notice one of them mention 2P inputs.
Yeah, the glitch requires a 2P controller. After getting the empty dialog box, a button on the 2P controller needs to be pressed or released in order to open the debug menu. I think a button on the 2P controller needs to be held down while checking the corner in order to get the empty box as well.
Callumbuddy Both controllers are needed because a specific combination of buttons needs to be held on the 1P controller to bring up the debug menu. These buttons are Down-Right-ABY. Check the SDA Knowledge Base for the exact steps: kb.speeddemosarchive.com/Earthbound/Tricks_and_Glitches#Onett
A boy who checked a mountain for a Meteor, defeated a Starman, and travelled to Onett for a *_s k i p_* sandwich and back. Then later recieved a letter from Porky, The End.

Ness leaves Porky's home, eats a Skip sandwich, decides to climb a random cliff, falls unconscious after strange voices talk to his head, wakes up, and Picky gives him a letter from his apparently missing brother. The end...?
he checked the menu randomly to manipulate the formula the game uses for encounters. by randomly checking, he makes it son nothing gets in his way during the run. and yes, the 'HSISHSISHDH' thing is the debug mode.

Mr. Otherguy You forgot that part, where he went in the woods and examined the end of the world for like 1000 times.
and who can forget the hero of the story, the legendary skip sandwich, which aided the boy´s journey?
