He and [[Ana]] are also the only party members that can utilize [[PSI]], although Ninten is only capable of using defensive PSI moves. His main weapons are [[Baseball bat]]s, being the only items in the game that are unique to him, and which is also a trait that is succeeded by [[Ness]] in ''[[EarthBound]]''. His personality has been expanded and elaborated on in several guides and books, though the degree of canonicity in these are debatable. | ||
In ''Encyclopedia Mother'', he is depicted as an energetic and adventurous boy, being compared with [[wikipedia:Indiana Jones|Indiana Jones]]. His dog, [[Mick]], is very close to him, especially during his years as an infant. He is very popular in school, and has been chosen as "Mr. Leader" by his fellow classmates. He also displays a strong interest in baseball, being a "team regular" in the boys' baseball team, and thus plays baseball routinely. Being kept a secret from his mother, he enjoys playing the electric guitar that his father has gotten for him, especially when being accompanied by Mick. His [[favorite food]] is Prime rib, which his mother serves for dinner once a week.<ref>[[:File:PrimeRibRef.jpg|Excerpt from Ninten's Encyclopedia Mother Entry]]</ref> Despite this, the E3 2015 trailer for ''EarthBound Beginnings'' entered Steak as Ninten's favorite food, which is also Ness's favorite food. Ninten also loves penguins, even owning a penguin toy, which is one of his most cherished possessions.<ref name=kenisu/> | In ''Encyclopedia Mother'', he is depicted as an energetic and adventurous boy, being compared with [[wikipedia:Indiana Jones|Indiana Jones]].
