    I know another similarity: the "X" appears at the plot's date: Earthbound takes place in 199X, and undertale takes place in 201X.

      @@affordablex4914 The X means the year you are playing in, if you played during 2017 and it says 201X and since frisk is you and frisk can be your age, your gender your whatever, it means that you fell in the mountain during 2017 if you played during 2017, or atleast that's what I think.

      Giygas will constatly move in the background with a creepy face and a creepy theme, you can't really compreend what he is, and since Earthbound is rated K-A, being a kid and getting on the final boss will make you have nightmares... specially his "death" being so creepy and awesome at same time

    Edit: For anyone who read this incorrectly, I was referring to Frisk using a Stick at the beginning of the game and the relation of the fact that Lucas also uses a stick as his main weapon. Not very related I know, I wrote this 3 years ago :|

    I don't know if somebody already said it, but you know Sans' signature dialogue with the beautiful day outside? That is very similar to something a policeman said very early in the game. I think it starts similar with both mentioning the beautiful day outside. What I do remember more clearly is that it ends like this: "...at times like this, kids like you, should be playing Nintendo games."

      @PsiPaula4 6 років тому +5

      No offense but the Mettaton being a reference to the Frankystein Mark II point is weak because there are many games that have robots in them. Mettaton is also humanoid and doesn't look anything like Frankystein Mark II, which most resembles a tank or something.
      Mt. Ebott is more likely a Mt. Itoi reference imo rather than to "Onett" considering Mt. Itoi is a reference to the creator of the Mother series, Shigesato Itoi, and Ebott is ttobe backwards which sounds like Toby as in Toby Fox, and Mt. Itoi is also a mountain.
