Your adventures take you through modern cities, prehistoric villages, cold winter climates, a desert wasteland, monkey caves, swamps, dinosaur museums, and even a yellow submarine. Along the way are underlining themes of corrupt politicians, post-traumatic stress, corporate greed, depression, capitalism, police violence, terrorist attacks, homosexuality, religious cults, and xenophobia. While visiting eight Sanctuaries, Ness partners with three other kids: a psychic girl (Paula), an eccentric inventor (Jeff), and the prince of the kingdom of Dalaam (Poo).

A bee from the future instructs Ness to collect melodies in a Sound Stone to preemptively stop Giygas from destroying the planet. There he learns that Giygas has enveloped the world in hatred, and consequently turned animals, humans, and inanimate objects into dangerousВ creatures. ThereвЂ™s a princess you must rescueВ - not once, but twiceВ - whoвЂ™s really just aВ child prodigy, and thereвЂ™s an arch nemesis who turns out to be your next-door neighbour.В The game pits you in the shoes of a young boy named Ness as he investigates a nearby meteorite crash. This often funny, always poignant coming of age tale, deeply embedded in suburban mores, centers around four kids, off to save the planet by collecting melodies while en route to defeating the evil alien force known as Giygas.Д®arthboundВ didnвЂ™t reinvent the wheel, but it sure had fun twisting the usual JRPG tropes. ItвЂ™s anarchy versus conformity, only conformity doesnвЂ™t stand a chance. The SNES is arguably home to some of the best Japanese role-playing games ever made, but even among such revered company, EarthboundВ (known as Mother 2В in Japan) stands out as a brilliant satire about growing up and our fears of conformity. The Game Boy gave rise to one of the biggest franchises in history, while also upgrading itself to become the Game Boy ColorВ - as revolutionary as color television itself, as handhelds would never be the same again.

Some of the most influential games would appear on the Nintendo 64В - some regularly voted as the best of all timeВ - but while the Nintendo 64 was making history with some stellar titles, an older console was making history of its own during this era. Named after its central processing unit, the Nintendo 64 would bring three dimensions to previously two-dimensional franchises.
