Admittedly the mechanics of the game aren't too innovative, but personally I think everything else makes up for it. But to each their own I suppose.

Cool things that may not be innovative but definitely are quirky enough to make Earthbound worthwhile apart from other RPGs:

-Calling your Dad from either your house phone or a payphone to save.

-ATM machines

-Heat stroke

-The awesome running teleport PSI thing

-Random camera man

-Poo's Mimic/Mirror technique

-The Music!!

-The scratch and sniff cards that came with the Player's Guide that came with most new copies of the game

-The huge box that the game came in

-Jeff building things from junk

-Apple Kid and Orange Kid

I can't think of any more right now, but I'm sure people have their own favorite quirks.

I don't like many turn-based-RPGs, but I still want to play EB.

Yeah, that's ridiculous. You'd think they'd release it; with the success of SSBM I'm sure more people would recognize Ness now. There's nothing in the game that would alienate American audiences either, indeed, a lot of the game takes place in cities very much like America, so it's even weirder that they haven't released it here. BLAST YOU NOA!

Yeah, SSBM brought Fire Emblem a bigger audience, why not EB.
(LOL, maybe we'll see a new game for the Ice Climbers or Mr.Game & Watch)

Four weeks. Twenty papers. That's two dollars, plus tip.

The success of Advance Wars probably convinced Nintendo to bring the game over, but I'm sure that more than a few people became curious after playing SSBM(like me).

Mother 3 was originally slated for a N64DD launch, and there was even a demo for it at Spaceworld, but like many other N64DD games it was cancelled.

Everybody should do a favor to themselves and buy Earthbound. Not a rom you dirty pirates, BUY IT. Try to find the foot long box it was first released in.

XDXDXDXDXD i still got my box! XD

and yes, for heavens sake buy the game =p
