This is the section of EBC to learn all about EBC. How it got started, eventful updates, and other little tid bits of info.
Earthbound Central, was completed and released to the world on May 18th, 1999. I had tried to do an EB site previously, It was called "Tom Aitken's Earthbound World", but I had two sites aready running and had no time to work on a third, plus the site was not up to par, so I canned it. After Zelda64 came out my Zelda64 site came to an almost screeching halt... I decided to do another site, and I set out to make one of the most comprehensive and exciting Earthbound sites out there. Thanks to Earthbound.net(Now Starmen.net) I got some great exposure, and we're still going strong to this day.

We've had many different features, sections, and changes here on EBC in our 4 years, the some of the key ones are:

  • The EB64 petition: yup we had an EB64 petition, which reached it's pitifully low signature count of 100.
  • The Mother on GBC petition: We tried that too, and again failed misirably at it.
  • Message boards: Never EVER a success here at EBC.
  • A newsletter: One was sent out, if you have it, it's a collectors item.
  • Ness's House: Part of the EBzero section, it was a little online adventure throught the first part of EBzero: Ness's House. This won't come back, as this tiny adventure could be completed in about 30 seconds.
  • Sum*41 Section: What was I thinking... A short lived section with no real point.
  • EBC: The History: The most unique section of any EB site, on no other site can you take a trip down memory lane, and see the older layouts the site has used.
  • The GameShifter: A "section" of EBC that could be it's own site... It is a webcomic starring Tom Aitken(Me), Ness, Samus Aran, and Jason(Blaster Master)... This just another reason to visit EBC 3 times a week!
  • Almost Yearly Layout Changes: EBC has never used a layout or color sceme for more than a year(10 months is the longest), so basically we've had almost yearly layout and color sceme changes every year, and once, twice in a year!
  • Coming Up On 4 Years: Of Earthbound Coverage! EBC has been around since May 18th, 1999. That date in 2003 will be our 4th birthday! We have over 14000 hits... And are one of the longest lasting Earthbound sites...

    EBC is now 4 years old!!! (May 18th, 1999 - May 18th, 2003)

    Here is a list of awards EBC has won:
