Ninten weighs 42 kg, is 152 cm tall, and has blood type A.<ref name=SomeNintenInfo/> He has short, black hair, although he usually wears a red cap with a blue brim, likely due to his interest in baseball, making his hair unable to be seen in-game; in his clay model, he is also shown to have visible forelocks. He wears a striped t-shirt, with the colors blue and yellow; however, the t-shirt of his Japanese sprite was originally colored blue with one black stripe. He also wears blue shorts, blue shoes with white edges, and a pair of red socks, which together make a portion of his legs visible. Red blushes can also be seen on his cheek on his clay model, being a typical feature of several ''Mother'' characters.

Ninten is often compared with [[Ness]], whom appears to be based on Ninten. Because of this, some people consider them to be the same person and Ninten is often overshadowed by him, as ''[[EarthBound]]'' and Ness are overall much more known. Ness's resemblance to Ninten was left as ambiguous by [[Shigesato Itoi]] intentionally as he intended for players to decide if they're the same character or different<ref>[http://yomuka.wordpress.com/2009/04/30/famitsu-06191992/ Weekly Famitsu – June 19, 1992]</ref> while also recommending for players who played the first game to think of them as the same. In the fan community, Ninten is usually depicted with a bandana around his neck and with more variety in the coloring of his shirt, in order to distinguish him from Ness, which is due to his appearance in a Japanese commercial for ''Mother''[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yQUN7QAnMpO] where these features were added.
