Why aren't we using Ness' image from Super Smash Bros. Brawl to replace his Super Smash Bros. Melee picture? 76.64.1.184 (talk) 04:56, 7 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

The most updated image is not always the best image to use. His Brawl art is at a boring angle, and his backpack or bat are not in the picture. The Melee art is better in this regard. _Blake ^{(Talk·Edits)} 14:04, 7 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Don't delete it. There is absolutely no reason to do so. 50.124.252.62 (talk) 02:42, 15 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Deletion?

This page should be deleted.

i mean, if you make a page for Ness, then you may as well make a page for Coco the Coco Pops Monkey! --I'm a goofy goober, YEAH!, Your a goofy goober, YEAH! (talk) 12:10, 10 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I don't think so, but Afd is there for it. Gabriel Yuji (talk) 17:41, 10 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Is Ness a telekinetic?

I need to ask this obvious question before adding a category. He telekinetically moves himself in smash bros which makes him better at telekinesis than a Jedi. Than theres the block he moves in teh flashback to Ness as a baby. CensoredScribe (talk) 23:18, 19 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Potential merge

I've been cleaning this up for a few hours now and after poking through the sourcing, I'm realizing that there isn't much here that isn't already covered by the Ness section of EarthBound. Anything important about his creation or about how fans feel about him can fit into the game's article, and the other parts like being #4X on a listicle and how his name is similar to NES is simply trivia. I have a bunch of sources that haven't been added, so I'll keep going through them, but thoughts on a merge to EarthBound#Ness? czar ♔ 20:10, 16 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Is there still work being done on this article? There are additional sections for "EarthBound" and "Super Smash Bros." that look like they should replace the older text, but the article hasn't been edited (constructively) since November 16. --ThomasO1989 (talk) 20:40, 7 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I paused pending response to the above czar ⨹ 21:37, 7 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]

In the absence of opposition, I'm boldly going ahead with this redirect as sufficiently covered in the target section czar ⨹ 02:15, 9 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]
