I wish Zero's translation of Other M was canon. Because it seems much more upbeat, even though it lacks a lot of answers.

I like this new avatar so damn much it's scary. It's bound to stay for a long time...

Find a way to alter the subtitle files for Other M, and we'll talk. I have basic knowledge of Brawl hacking, but I have yet to actually get serious about investigating the howabouts of messing with Other M (mostly just waiting 'til I finish the reMovie). At best, it would require using cheats and a replacement subtitle file with a modded Wii or on the Dolphin; at worst, it would require changing actual game files and injecting them into an image of the game, which would also require a modded Wii. I've seen it done with other games, so I know it's possible, but I just haven't gone into "full investigative mode" yet.

About Adam shooting her, Though it looks stupid and "abusive" what I get out of it is this:

If he hadn't shot her, she wouldn't have been weakened. The situation went like this.

:zss: Let me go in! I'm the only one who has a shot against the Metroids.

:adam: I wish I could battle Ridley. But I can't. Unlike you, I'm not Galactic Savior.

Lets say he DIDN"T shoot her. The situation would go like this.

:adam: Sector Zero has a self distruct protocal. if the sector (blah blah I basically am giong to kill myslef in there for you [spoiler]BECAUSE I LOVE YOU. What who said that?[/spoiler]

:cool: What? Bitch please!!! You are not!!! I can handle the metroids! I'm the only one who can!! *shoots ADAM*

:adam: Blarrghhhhh
The reason Adam shot her is because she is much stronger than him and could easily over power him with the sudden "oh yeah im gonna go in and kill myself for you" and go in instead. Adam knew she would be upset and could do something irrational at the thought of wanting to keep the few people she has close in to her alive in her life.

:cool: If something like that happened again, I would hold fast to that glimmer of hope and try for redemption. Thats who I am.

Adam knows that if he "knows her best" and he even heard it during the Ian thing. So if he shot her, she would be injured and suitless. Therefore unfit to kill the Metroids. And therfore Adam can make his move and protect her and kill the Metroids.

King Broly, >_<X half of the stuff you say lacks a TON of answers and seems to be pulled from so far up your ass they make everyone go "What???" I mean that in the nicest way possible because to me its like...We say something and you're like "YOu know what I think with that....I think Samus is like Superman and fails as a human."

It's mainly the lack of context that could give me a Superman-type lifestyle for Samus. You know, if I took everything as it being what it's supposed to be, with no rhyme or reason. Hell, I could say that Samus is in a state of psychological shock after Super, which allowed MB to control Samus' actions and memories in order for us to question her relationship with Adam. Of course, that'd be too fun to tell.

Personally, I'm kinda coming back to the idea that Other M's going to have to be re-imagined because the story as is stands is too bloated with nonsense and has an overall lack of clarity. You really can't answer everything and justify it because something always causes a roadblock for something else story-wise.

EDIT:
Quick question. What would be the worst case scenario if this arc tied itself into a neat, little bow, other than no more Metroids? It'd have to be Adam being evil, right?

Didn't take long for mind control and Evil Adam to rear their ugly heads again...

Nicely written Zero by the way, sums up what I think in a much better way :thumbsup:

Well...those are 2 possibilities, but entirely separate outcomes. I'll just leave it with a question:

Who is the Other M in Metroid: Other M?

Because that person is the head of the corrupt group.

Would you believe that that was just me thinking off the cuff?

Okay then, what am I thinking? And how long do you think I've been there for? And how long have you been there for?

Ya know, KB, I'm inclined to ask you when your birthday is, because you gave me a great idea for a birthday present crafted specifically for you, but I don't really care when your birthday is. So don't tell me when it is. So help me, if you tell me when your birthday is, I will rain pain down upon you. Instead, I'm just going to get around to making it whenever I get around to it, release it to the world, dedicate it to you, and call it a birthday present. You will like, you will have no say in whether you like it or not, you will be forced to like it, you will accept it as a birthday present, and that day will forevermore be your new birthday. Oh, and it will be glorious. ...If I ever get around to making it.

My birthday wish is for you to keep me out of your projects, because I'm a really shy person. Besides, my birthday has long since passed for this year.

And I'm not joking about this.

No. Not even. We could meet a new character, who leads this group, and focus on their plans falling apart around them.

Adam doesn't even have to be involved, except as a computer.

How would that be a worst case scenario?

Any current idea of yours is worse than the worst case scenario. I was trying to get as far away from that as possible.

You act as if I was going to talk about what I've never put out there as a possibility. I could if you REALLY wanted me to.

Or I could take your idea and say the villain is actually a Chozo questing for vengeance under the disguise of a human identity, who will inevitably ask for Samus to be its' McNugget Queen. Mmm...McNuggets.
