Yes, in a way. The Western 'Earthbound' game was 'Mother 2' in Japan, making the original 'Mother' game 'Earthbound 0'.
EarthBound is the American title for MOTHER 2, which is the only game in the series that came to the states. MOTHER (NES) and MOTHER 3 (Game Boy Advanced) are the other two games in the series. MOTHER 2/EarthBound was for the SNES, but is now incredibly difficult to find due to legal issues.
Ness and Lucas only met in Super Smash Bros. Brawl. Ness is in Earthbound/Mother 2 and Lucus is in Mother 3.
1) Lucas is not from EarthBound, but from it's sequel, MOTHER 3. 2) No, he does not, though he is sometimes shipped with the character Kumatora.
No, it hasn't been released yet.
Ness is from the game Mother 2 on the SNES, which was called Earthbound when released in the US. Lucas comes from Mother 3.
Earthbound is on Nintendo's Super Nintendo Entertainment System. It is also on the Gameboy Advance as a compilation of Earthbound and the previous game Mother(Japan only). The Gameboy Advance game titled Mother 1+2 was only released in Japan and has all Japanese text. (Go for the SNES version.)
Lucas is from Earthbound. The main character in Earthbound is Ness
Itoi (the creator) said hes gonna quit with the mother(EarthBound) series. so probably no.
Well ness is from earthbound and mother 3
Of course not. Lucas and Ness are completely different protagonists from the Mother/Earthbound series, and have absolutely no relations. Ness only appears in Earthbound (Mother 2), while Lucas appears only in Mother 3 (or Earthbound 2). In Mother 3, Lucas already has a brother (a twin brother) of his own, known as Claus.Since Mother 3 was never released out of Japan, it definitely expresses the confusion when both characters appeared in Super Smash Bros. Brawl.If you don't believe me, go to http://mother3.fobby.net/and play the Mother 3 Fan Translation yourself. You'll need a GameBoy Advance emulator first.
probably lucas or ness from earthbound or mother 1,2,and 3.
