==In ''[[Super Smash Bros.]]''==
[[Ness]], the main protagonist of ''EarthBound'', is an unlockable character in ''Super Smash Bros.''  [[Paula]], [[Jeff]], [[Poo]], the [[Eagleland: Onett#Hazards|Runaway Five]] and a [[Mr. Saturn]] make a brief appearance in Ness's [[1P Game]] "congratulations" graphic.
 
==In ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]''==
=== Characters ===
Ness returns as a [[starter character]] in ''Melee''.
 
=== Items ===
[[Mr. Saturn]] is an item which can be picked up and thrown at opponents, dealing very low damage and knockback, though it's effective at breaking [[shield]]s.
 
=== Stages ===
[[Onett]], the first town from the game, becomes a starter stage complete with the meteor in the background and a "Runaway Five" bus. Curiously, the music is not from ''EarthBound'', but from ''[[Mother]]''. The metropolis of [[Fourside]] is unlockable after playing 100 VS. matches.  It contains skyscrapers, a UFO and even Porky Minch's helicopter.  Its music is a soft rock version of the Fourside theme. This track, along with Ness' victory theme from ''SSB64'' and ''Melee'', are the only tracks from ''EarthBound'' itself in the entire ''Smash Bros.'' Series.

==In ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]''==
=== Masterpieces ===
''EarthBound'' is one of the [[Masterpieces]], but it is only available in the Japanese version of the game, where it is known by its Japanese name of ''Mother 2''.
 
=== Characters ===
Ness returns as an [[unlockable character]].
 
=== Stages ===
Onett returns as a [[Melee Stage]] and is almost identical, except for a smaller warning alarm and a lack of the meteor in the background.
 
=== Assist Trophy ===
Jeff Andonuts is now an [[Assist Trophy]].  He fires Multi Bottle Rockets at opponents in several waves of five, the number of waves being random per summoning.
 
=== Items ===
Mr. Saturn returns as an item, identical in function to his role in Melee.  The [[Franklin Badge]], a lightning-repelling badge which Ness receives in Happy Happy Village, also becomes an item.
 
=== Bosses ===
[[Porky Minch]] is a boss in the [[Subspace Emissary]], although his design is taken from ''[[Mother 3]]'s'' Bed Mecha.
 
=== Trophies ===
EarthBound trophies include:
*[[Ness (SSBB)]]
*[[PK Starstorm]] (Ness)
*[[Jeff]]
*[[Porky]]
*[[Mr. Saturn]]
*[[Franklin Badge]]
