I think the appeal to Earthbound is how gamey it is, and how it plays off of that. I mean, Itoi takes advantage of the medium and your expectations (ex: "you-know-who prayed", the final final ending of Mother 3).
It's definitely got charm to spare, but I think some of the silly gameplay moments is what makes it special. I'd still watch it, though.
