Earthbound is my favorite game of all time. There aren't too many that come close. But I feel like if I'm going to go in on a game, it may as well be one that I love. It's a charming game that's very ahead of its time in a lot of ways, which may be why it wasn't a huge success, and is instead relegated to "Cult Hit". It's nowhere near my first RPG, and in fact, I only briefly played it as a younger man, borrowing it from a friend. It took a few years for me to land my first copy of the game and play it for myself, but I was hooked from the first time I stepped into the shoes of Ness, the protagonist of the game.
