Yo-yos are one of the weapons of choice in EarthBound (known in Japan as Mother), one of Nintendo's first game franchises that reached classic status. In the game's third release, the 2006 Mother 3, Pokey, one of the game's antagonists, has a special room in which he keeps his favorite things, which includes a Friends yo-yo. This is the inspiration for the EarthBound Friends Yo-Yo: a world in which Pokey and Ness could be friends and play together!
The EarthBound Friends Yo-Yo features the two characters on its one side in 8-bit graphic illustrations, just as they would appear in the game. On the other side, it features the Mother logo. The yo-yo 58.7 x 34.1 mm (12.3 x 1.3") big, it weighs 51.5 g (1.8 oz) and it has been based on the YoYoFactory Loop 720 model, has been designed under the supervision of Shu Takada, the six-time yo-yo world champion. In other words, whatever your yo-yo level skill, this one helps you do really amazing tricks!
