Fun with video game characters: What if Adam replaced Dr. Light? - The Five-Minute Forums

Megaman, there are six robots attacking in various places. Their names end with the word Man. You should select an Empire by using the direction pad.

You have selected Gutsman's Empire. Please note that there are hinged platforms. You will also find Metools. These small robots are capable of guarding using their hats. Please remember that Gutsman is vulnerable to explosions.

Moral of the story: Adam is really easy (and fun) to pick on.

Ah, here he is. Everybody, this is GreenFire1. I've been hanging out at GameFAQs lately and I found out he was a 5M.net fan, so I suggested that he sign up here.

For those who don't know, Adam is the computer from Metroid Fusion (he and Samus had a cameo in Five-Minute "The Forgotten," where I too made fun of his speech patterns). Mega Man is Mega Man, of course.

He did speak in colors. Zeke's version had him in bold, but that's a limitation of the Fiver format, no doubt. I'm sure there's some pattern to his color-coding, but I'm not going to bother finding out what it is.

Incidentally, the game implies that Adam speaks. You know, with audio. Samus yells at him in a cutscene, after all, which suggests that the cutscenes are vocal. I believe Samus also comments on how he "sounds." So how does he speak in colors?

...blame the game designers? They don't think things have to make sense. Which they don't, because we play the games anyways.

Yay, another Mega Man fan. Brings the grand total here up to about five.

Ah, so you're MaverickZer0. I should warn you that your name came up in one of my conversations with Zeke in the context of how disturbing your N/E 'ship fandom is. By the way, I'm signed up to Five (is that the verb?) pretty good portions of the EXE anime. So another warning for you - while N/E jokes would be really easy to make, I'm not going to make them because they're just so easy to make. Especially in the anime, where Enzan and Raika have a steeper going-soft curves than in the games. Just a headsup for you.

I love how everyone thinks I am nuts about N/E. I'm only so-so about it. I have different ones that I think make much more sense. If I fived any of it, I wouldn't make any of those jokes either (except in one episode of Axess which is really just begging for it) for the same reasons.
And some others. Anyone who's flipped through a few entries back on my LJ to the last story I put up there will get it. (I don't recommend doing it, though. I've been going through some stuff lately and I don't want anyone to slog through that all.) It's on FF.net, though. In the .EXE section. I'll leave you to guess which one's mine if you do look, it just contains some messed-up junk, falls into humor, and is a really unlikely pairing, and I only have I think three stories up.

I can discuss this if you like, but if so we should probably take it to PM since I have a disturbing mind and I don't want to hurt the fragile brain of anyone who doesn't want to see.

Note: Internets is basically limited, which is why I'm restricting myself from several sites, which is why my LJ hasn't been updated recently. I'll be sporadically here/away in any case. And totally gone Monday.

For any outsiders reading this, the line quoted above was in the Japanese version of Battle Network 6, but was changed to "Stay alert, Hikari" in the English version. Personally, I think it's not a big deal. Chaud really mellowed out in this one -- he was actually acting like one of the ACDC gang. It wasn't necessary to spell it out.

Let's not go nuts -- you're signed up to try one and see how it goes. But yes, "five" is the verb.
