Ness in Super Nail Bros.

The screen shown when Ness finishes single-histrion mode: a Mr. Saturn, an Octobot, Frankystein Mark Ii, UFOs, and Delinquent Five members all appear in the background.

Ness was considered a surprise add-on to the roster in Super Smash Bros.. Many overseas players didn't expect such an obscure character to appear in the game, which reflects that he's an unlockable graphic symbol. Strangely, none of Ness'southward Special moves are canon to EarthBound; PSI Magnet, PK Fire and PK Thunder were originally used past his partner Paula in the game. This in Super Boom Bros. Melee was explained in Paula'southward trophy description that she may have taught him these techniques.

Ness is ranked tenth in the Boom World Forums competitive tier list for Super Smash Bros, being known for double jump canceling which allows him to use aerials very shut to terrain.

Interestingly, while in that location is no EarthBound-themed phase in Super Smash Bros., Ness is fought in the Kirby-themed Dream Land phase when he appears as a challenger.

Clarification

"Ness was a seemingly-average kid from Onett, but in truth, he was destined for much more. When a strange meteorite landed nigh his hometown, the little boy with psychic powers gear up out to relieve the world. Picayune has been said of Ness's character, and much remains subconscious."

Combos, tricks, and tactics

• Ness's double jump cancel allows him to perform a double jump canceled down air attack shield break, double jump canceled forward air assail chains, and double leap canceled spikes on the edge. Though double jump canceling is very effective and powerful in its own correct, it shouldn't be solely relied on strategically.

Ness in Super Smash Bros. Melee.

In Super Blast Bros. Melee, Ness is a default grapheme, and is currently ranked xx-third in the Melee Back Room'south competitive tier list. He tin make use of all of his Special Moves from the previous game and, equally all other Smash veterans, gains a fourth one: PK Flash, which is assigned as his Standard Special movement. PK Flash is Ness'south get-go "true" special assault, as his other two offensive moves were not used past him in EarthBound. PK Fire was changed to Ness's Side Special move. His home stages in the game are Onett and Fourside.

Unlike Captain Falcon, who also fabricated the transition from unlockable to default character with petty difference, Ness'due south fighting ability was vastly decreased at a competitive level, much to the dismay of his fans. Though Ness retains his double-bound cancel technique, the decreased amount of hitstun likewise as his recovery beingness (insufficiently) worse than much of the bandage, as well as being an hands-comboed character himself, makes him a far less viable character than in Super Nail Bros.

Announced at E3 2001, Ness was originally going to be replaced by Lucas from EarthBound 64, but because the game was canceled, it was decided Ness retain his advent for Super Smash Bros. Melee.
