-= MARIO =- (Donkey Kong)
- Colonel: Snake, you know who that is?
- Snake: You're kidding, right? It's Mario.
- Colonel: Mario made his first appearance in 1981, and since then, he's become a worldwide phenomenon. There's probably not a single person who doesn't know Mario. He's that famous.
- Snake: Good thing I survived long enough to meet him on the field of battle, huh?
- Colonel: This is a once-in-a-lifetime chance, Snake. Now get out there and show him what you're made of. No regrets.
- Snake: Got it.

-= LUIGI =- (Mario Bros.)
- Snake: That guy with the moustache...
- Colonel: Ha. You mean the "King of Second Bananas"?
- Snake: Hey, that's Luigi! Show him a little respect!
- Colonel: Look at that pale skin. He's been living in his brother's shadow for too long.
- Snake: That's a low blow, Colonel!
- Colonel: Ah, face it, Snake! Once a kid brother, always a kid brother!
- Snake: Colonel, what's gotten into you?!
- Colonel: La li lu le lo! La li lu le lo! La li lu le lo!
- Snake: Colonel, snap out of it! Colonel! Coooooooloneeeeeel!

-= MR. L =- (Super Paper Mario)
- Snake: That's weird. Luigi looks...and acts...different.
- Naomi: That's because he turned into Mr. L.
- Snake: "Mr. L"...That's a pretty corny name.
- Naomi: He's a "henchman" persona that was forcibly imprinted into Luigi's mind to make him serve Count Bleck.
- Snake: Henchman persona...so that's why he seems confident. And this was "forcibly imprinted"? How?
- Naomi: By Nastasia's hypnosis, apparently. As Count Bleck's right hand partner, she's very proficient at brainwashing anyone into doing their bidding.
- Snake: Seems with the power of hypnosis, you can make anyone act in any way, even turning someone into a whole different person.
- Naomi: Indeed...

-= PEACH =- (Super Mario Bros.)
- Snake: Mei Ling, tell me what you know about Peach.
- Mei Ling: Princess Peach is the beloved ruler of the Mushroom Kingdom. She's been kidnapped numerous times by Bowser.
- Snake: Sounds pretty serious..."
- Mei Ling: Yes, but every time it happens, Mario ends up saving her. Sure, he may not look like your ideal "knight in shining armor." A little on the short side, I'd say...But still, don't you think it's romantic? I mean, to have a guy who's always there for you?
- Snake: If he was smart, he'd tell her to stop getting kidnapped.
- Mei Ling: ...You don't get a lot of dates, do you, Snake?

-= BOWSER =- (Super Mario Bros.)
- Colonel: Careful, Snake! That's the great and terrible Bowser!
- Snake: Bowser? Looks like a cheap movie monster.
- Colonel: Hardly. Bowser leads an entire army of monsters. But I'd worry more about his claws and fire if I were you.
- Snake: Doesn't look that tough to me. Seems kind of slow, actually.
- Colonel: Well, he is the king of Koopas. It's only natural he'd be slow. But that's only because he's the heaviest fighter here--by far. He's a powerhouse of destruction. Careful he doesn't flatten you.

-= ROSALINA =- (Super Mario Galaxy)
- Snake: Mei Ling, there's a woman here floating with a star by her side.
- Mei Ling: That's Rosalina, the watcher of the Comet Observatory. And that star next to her is a Luma.
- Snake: A Luma?
- Mei Ling: It's a star child, basically. When they come of age, they will fly out to become stars, planets, even galaxies.
- Snake: And Rosalina is their matron, I assume.
- Mei Ling: That's right. Ever since she founded the Comet Observatory, she been a devoted caretaker who travels vast distances and takes countless numbers of Lumas under her wing. But every now and then, she becomes homesick and always makes it a top priority to visit her home world every 100 years.
- Snake: Every...100 years? But she doesn't look like...
- Mei Ling: Snake! That's not a nice thing to say about a lady!
- Snake: ...

-= BOWSER JR. =- (Super Mario Sunshine)
- Campbell: The father's sins are visited upon the child, it seems.
- Snake: Tell me about it.
- Campbell: Oh, sorry. I was referring to Bowser Jr. there.
- Snake: You mean the Koopa here with the bib and paintbrush?
- Campbell: Right. He's the baby son of Bowser himself. He's quite crafty, as evidenced when he framed Mario for fouling Isle Delfino with sludge-like graffiti. He can still do that with the paintbrush here. So watch your step.
- Snake: Hey Colonel...what you were saying earlier...
- Campbell: Yes, Snake?
- Snake: You think I'll ever get over my father's sins?
- Campbell: Hmm...sorry, Snake. The answer to that is beyond me. You'll have to find that out yourself.

-= TOAD =- (Super Mario Bros.)
- Naomi: I see you're fighting Toad.
- Snake: Toad? I don't see a...oh. You mean this mushroom guy.
- Naomi: Toads are the most populous species of the Mushroom Kingdom, but also the most easily frightened. This particular Toad is a personal retainer for Princess Peach. He's quite a fast runner and a great thrower. Also, you should watch out for his spores.
- Snake: He scatters spores, too?
- Naomi: I'm afraid so. As you should know, mushroom spores cling to hosts and seep toxins into the bloodstream, resulting in--
- Snake: Simple version, please.
- Naomi: Okay...Toad's spores might make you sick.
- Snake: Good. That's what I wanted to know.

-= WALUIGI =- (Mario Tennis)
- Snake: Rose, who's the skinny guy?
- Rose: That's Waluigi, Wario's partner and possible brother. He spends a lot of time devising pranks and exercising for sports. No matter what, he'll do what it takes to come out on top.
- Snake: Wario knows the oldest tricks of the book, but Waluigi published it, huh?
- Rose: That's right. He can set Sparky Stickers on the ground as traps, or even bat a Liar Ball at you.
- Snake: Liar Ball?
- Rose: Sometimes it's a baseball, but other times it's a Whiskered Eggplant. Just touching that will make you lose your lunch.
- Snake: Eugh. Sounds pretty nasty.

-= PAPER MARIO =- (Paper Mario)
- Snake: Strange...Mario's flat like a cartoon character...
- Mei Ling: Oh, that's a different Mario. Everyone calls him "Paper Mario".
- Snake: Paper...?
- Mei Ling: Kind of a pop-up book version, if you would. Paper Mario uses his 2-D form for skills we couldn't comprehend.
- Snake: Like...folding himself?
- Mei Ling: Yep. He can become a plane, scrunch up like an accordion, and even roll up like a tube. He's also pretty good with the hammer. I'd steer clear of his Quake Hammer if I were you.
- Snake: Huh. No FOXHOUND or Dead Cell member can compare with this Mario.
- Mei Ling: Really? Are you jealous?
- Snake: Hm? No, of course not. I prefer being 3-D.

-= GENO =- (Super Mario RPG)
- Snake: What kind of robot is this supposed to be?
- Otacon: What, Geno? Oh, he's not a robot. He's a star using a jointed doll as an earthly body.
- Snake: A...star?
- Otacon: One from the Star Road, to be specific. He descended to the terra firma after Smithy broke the Road apart to collect its shards. That doll, from which Geno got that nickname, seems to have gun-like properties. He can shoot bearings from it, or even his own fists.
- Snake: Interesting...
- Otacon: Oh yes--if he hits the Y button just right when he uses his Geno Whirl move...
- Snake: Otacon...what are you talking about?
- Otacon: Huh? Oh. Wrong thing. Sorry.

-= DONKEY KONG =- (Donkey Kong)
- Snake: Otacon, there's a gorilla wearing a tie here. He's huge.
- Otacon: That's Donkey Kong. As you can tell, he's got strength to spare. He may be king of the jungle, but he lives in a house just like you or me. And he seems pretty smart--well, for an ape, anyway. The Donkey Kong who fought that epic battle with Mario was this guy's grandfather.
- Snake: That was a long time ago. What about this Donkey Kong? Does he get along with Mario?
- Otacon: Nope, they're still at it. Seems like they're always competing in something--kart racing, sports, you name it.
- Snake: A chip off the old block...

-= DIDDY KONG =- (Donkey Kong Country)
- Snake: Otacon, there's a monkey here wearing a Nintendo hat.
- Otacon: That's Diddy Kong. He's Donkey Kong's partner. Not only is he lightweight, he can use a wide range of weapons as well. He can fly using those barrel jets on his back, and he can shoot nuts with his Peanut Popgun.
- Snake: Peanuts? As in the ones in the little shells? Are you serious?
- Otacon: Wait, here's the best part. You see them lying on the ground after he shoots? If you pick up some of those peanuts, they'll restore your health a little.
- Snake: Hmm. Edible ammunition, huh...Times sure have changed.

-= YOSHI =- (Super Mario World)
- Snake: Otacon! What's this lizard thing?
- Otacon: That's a Yoshi. It's a dinosaur from Yoshi's Island. Watch out for its long, chameleon-like tongue. If it gets you, you'll be swallowed whole.
- Snake: It lays eggs and throws them, right? ...Then it must be female.
- Otacon: ...Actually, it's a "he." At least, that's what it says.
- Snake: It talks!?
- Otacon: Yes! It talks! Well, kind of...
- Snake: Now you've got me curious. ...How about I capture one so we can see what they taste like?
- Otacon: Uhh, Snake...

-= STORK =- (Yoshi's Island)
- Snake: What's this baby doing out here unsupervised?
- Naomi: Oh, that little one's under the care of that Stork over there.
- Snake: Stork? You mean that big white bird with the basket in its beak?
- Naomi: That's right. The bird that delivers babies to their parents. This Stork watches over Baby Mario, Baby Peach, Baby DK, Baby Wario, and Baby Luigi. You'll also need to remember that these five are superstars, even at this age. Don't take it easy just because they're juvenile.
- Snake: Wait a minute. What do you mean "Storks deliver babies"?
- Naomi: Hm, don't tell me nobody's ever told you that story.
- Snake: I don't buy it at all. Research has shown that--
- Naomi: Snake, don't worry about that.

-= WARIO =- (Super Mario Land 2: The Six Golden Coins)
- Snake: This guy kind of gives me the creeps.
- Colonel: That's Wario, Snake. Wario first appeared as Mario's rival, but he really made his name in the WarioWare games. Watch out for Wario's bite. It's not just damage you take from it.
- Snake: What do you mean, Colonel?
- Colonel: Wario loves garlic. He eats whole cloves of it day and night. So try not to get caught in his mouth. Once that smell gets on you, it'll stick to you for quite a while.
- Snake: ...That's a scary thought.
- Colonel: He also attacks by farting. He can fart to fly around, too.
- Snake: By farting...Are you kidding me?!
- Colonel: Sadly, no. I am not kidding. If his belly starts to bulge, watch out.

-= LINK =- (Legend of Zelda)
- Snake: Otacon, who's the guy with the sword?
- Otacon: That's Link. He's the hero of Hyrule. That blade in his hand is called the Master Sword, also known as the "Blade of Evil's Bane." He also has a whole arsenal of items at his disposal--bombs and arrows, a shield, a boomerang, and a Clawshot. He's a force to be reckoned with.
- Snake: Gear is only useful when it's used at the right time and place. Just lugging a ton of it around doesn't do you any good.
- Otacon: ...I, uh... I wouldn't be talking if I were you, Snake.
- Snake: What's that supposed to mean?
- Otacon: You tell me, Mr. Utility Belt.
- Snake: ...

-= WOLF LINK =- (Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess)
- Snake: Link's gone, and now this wolf is in his place...
- Naomi: You didn't see it? Link transformed into Wolf Link. It's a form he first took upon entering the Twilight Realm, a sign of the hero's coming.
- Snake: So what you mean is...Link is a werewolf?
- Naomi: Technically speaking, yes. You know...I should study this transformation...
- Snake: What?
- Naomi: Well, lycanthropic transformation involves many complex factors. Such include change of genetic and skeletal structures, not to mention why his tunic vanishes, and...
- Snake: Naomi.
- Naomi: Yes?
- Snake: I can't believe I'm saying this, but...it's just magic.
- Naomi: Okay...?

-= ZELDA =- (Legend of Zelda)
- Colonel: Snake, I see you're fighting Zelda.
- Snake: Yeah, I guess. Doesn't feel right fighting someone in a dress, though...
- Colonel: Don't underestimate her just because she's a woman. Zelda's attacks are backed by powerful magic. Her hand-to-hand combat may look weak, but her magic makes it cut to the bone.
- Snake: So this rose has thorns...Interesting...
- Colonel: ...This is no time for pickup lines, Snake.
- Snake: Don't worry. I know from experience that it's the quiet ones you have to watch out for.

-= SHEIK =- (Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time)
- Snake: What's going on here? What happened to Zelda?!
- Mei Ling: Snake, Princess Zelda transformed into Sheik. I can understand the clothes, but to change her skin and eye color? That must take some powerful magic.
- Snake: ...Magic...?
- Mei Ling: Come on, Snake! Don't get all grumpy and start talking about how unscientific it is. Science is basically just another form of magic that makes our lives easier.
- Snake: I never thought I'd hear that coming from you, Mei Ling.
- Mei Ling: Don't you think talking to someone halfway around the world is a kind of magic? Or flying across entire continents?
- Snake: No. I think this is completely different.

-= GANONDORF =- (Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time)
- Snake: This guy is giving off a murderous vibe! Even getting close to him makes my skin crawl...
- Otacon: Snake! Ganondorf is dangerous! His ambition is to rule the world, and he's got the power to do it. It's no wonder they call him "King of Evil."
- Snake: Do modern weapons even work against him? Do I even have a chance?
- Otacon: Take a look around you. There are plenty of people fighting with swords or even their bare hands. At least you've got firepower! Count yourself lucky! It's not like you to whine, Snake.
- Snake: I was just asking, sheesh. Well, it's back to the mission for me.

-= TOON LINK =- (Legend of Zelda: Wind Waker)
- Snake: Mei Ling, who is this kid with the cat eyes...?
- Mei Ling: Oh, they call him Toon Link. Doesn't he look familiar?
- Snake: Yeah, he looks just like Link.
- Mei Ling: But you know there've been several people who've gone by that name, right? They all have certain things in common--green clothes, a sword, a shield... But they all came from different lands and lived in different eras. And yet the spirit of the hero of the Triforce is timeless. It's an essence that transcends history.
- Snake: I think I can relate to that.
- Mei Ling: Huh? What do you mean?
- Snake: There's been more than one "Snake," too, you know...

-= TETRA =- (Legend of Zelda: Wind Waker)
- Otacon: Oh, fighting Tetra, huh? She's the captain of a pirate ship on the Great Sea.
- Snake: A captain? But she's barely even 18, by the looks of her.
- Otacon: Interesting you should say that, because Ocelot was the major of his own unit when he was 18.
- Snake: Touche. But let's get back to Tetra.
- Otacon: Right. Well, Tetra's pretty good with bombs, but she can also mug you.
- Snake: Mug? You mean...?
- Otacon: Yup. If you're holding an item, she'll take that from you. I'd be careful using grenades around her.
- Snake: Or she'll be chucking them at me. Sounds like a pain.

-= TOON ZELDA =- (Legend of Zelda: Wind Waker)
- Rose: Hey, did Tetra just transform?
- Snake: Yeah, into Toon Zelda, or something.
- Rose: Interesting...So the legacy of the Hylian princess has endured time itself. Well, dainty as she seems, Toon Zelda's no pushover. Her Triforce of Wisdom enables the use of light energy in various spells, and she's a skilled archer.
- Snake: By firing magic arrows, it seems. I've noticed their homing capabilities.
- Rose: I wonder, though...Now that she's a princess, shouldn't she be acting more...well, regal?
- Snake: I don't know. She may be in another wrapper, but this Zelda's still the same spunky Tetra. You'd know, right?
- Rose: I guess so.

-= TINGLE =- (Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask)
- Snake: Rose, what's up with this freak in the bodysuit?
- Rose: You must be fighting Tingle...To put it simply, Tingle is a middle-aged man who thinks he's a fairy. Because of that, he constantly builds funds to travel to the fairies' paradise.
- Snake: Wait. I heard somewhere he collects Rupees to keep from kicking the bucket.
- Rose: Err...that, too. Still, you gotta hand it to him. He's a great businessman, making and selling quality goods and maps. He'd float out into dangerous territories just to make a profit.
- Snake: So, has anyone figured out the secret behind his "Koolah-limpy" spell, or whatever?
- Rose: I'm afraid not...

-= PIKACHU =- (Pokémon Red/Blue)
- Mei Ling: Ooh! How cuute!
- Snake: What? The yellow thing?
- Mei Ling: That's Pikachu. It's a Pokémon. They're popular all over the world, you know. And it may look cute, but be careful. It can store up large amounts of electricity in those adorable little cheeks. It'll try to pepper you with electric shocks.
- Snake: Couldn't be much worse than Ocelot's old torture device...
- Mei Ling: Oh, and, Snake?
- Snake: What?
- Mei Ling: I was wondering, could you maybe try and catch Pikachu for me? Pleeeeease?
- Snake: Give me a break! What do I look like, a Pokémon Trainer?
- Mei Ling: Fine... Sorry I asked.

-= JIGGLYPUFF =- (Pokémon Red/Blue)
- Snake: Aw, there's a big eyeball walking around here...
- Colonel: That's just Jigglypuff.
- Snake: Jigglypuff? That some kind of marshmallow?
- Colonel: Jigglypuff is a balloon-shaped Pokémon. It may be light and puffy and full of air, but its Rest ability is devastating.
- Snake: Rest...? What's so devastating about it resting?
- Colonel: The instant it falls asleep, there's a huge buildup of energy in its center of gravity. If it hits you, it's lights out for sure.
- Snake: So it puts a lot of energy into sleeping? Sounds pretty irresponsible if you ask me.
- Colonel: Takes all kinds, Snake. Especially here in 'Scuffle."

-= MEWTWO =- (Pokémon Red/Blue)
- Snake: This Pokémon doesn't seem too friendly...
- Naomi: That's Mewtwo, an advanced clone of Mew. He was designed solely to be the strongest Pokémon ever.
- Snake: I can tell. His psychic powers are beyond anything I've seen. I wonder if I can even last this fight.
- Naomi: Well, with all that power, Mewtwo is lonelier than you can imagine.
- Snake: Is that so?
- Naomi: Yes. Ever since he destroyed the lab that created him, he's fled into solitude with a large void in his heart. I bet that even now, his artificial soul longs for someone who can understand him and enrich him with a sense of humanity.
- Snake: Hm. I can relate.

-= PKMN TRAINER =- (Pokémon Red/Blue)
- Snake: Pokémon Trainer... That's the kid giving orders behind a Pokémon, right?
- Colonel: Right, and this Pokémon Trainer is controlling Squirtle, Ivysaur, Charizard, and Pichu. They represent water, grass, fire, and lightning, and they're all powerful.
- Snake: So the Pokémon fight while the Trainer sits back and watches. Sounds like a good deal if you ask me.
- Colonel: It's not like that, Snake. Those Pokémon wouldn't know what to do if the Pokémon Trainer wasn't there giving orders. In every battle, there's a soldier doing the fighting, and a commander telling him what to do. By working together as a team, they accomplish much more than either could on their own. So let's do this together, partner.
- Snake: ...Yeah...Whatever you say, Colonel.

-= LUCARIO =- (Pokémon Diamond/Pearl)
- Mei Ling: You're fighting Lucario, aren't you, Snake?
- Snake: Mei Ling, what's that purple fire coming out of his hands?
- Mei Ling: That's his "Aura."
- Snake: Aura?
- Mei Ling: I guess you could call it his life force. Lucario can use his own Aura and turn it into power. Every time Lucario's damage increases, his Aura gains strength, making his attacks more powerful. So don't think you've got him beat just because his health is down.
- Snake: The cornered rat will bite the cat...Sounds like trouble.
- Mei Ling: Hey! When did you become so good with proverbs?!
- Snake: You must have rubbed off on me.
- Mei Ling: Well, come back safely, and I'll teach you all the Chinese proverbs you can handle.

-= KELLYN =- (Pokémon Ranger: Shadows of Almia)
- Snake: Otacon, a Pokémon Ranger's a person who befriends Pokémon with a Capture Styler, right?
- Otacon: Right. Kellyn here uses his Styler for...sort of the same purpose. He's also backed up by a Partner Pokémon.
- Snake: Kellyn only has one of those, I guess?
- Otacon: Nope. He's got five, actually--Chimchar, Pachirisu, Snover, Croagunk, and Mime Jr. He'll call them to and from his "Partner Farm". They use fire, electric, ice, poison, and psychic powers, respectively. The Capture Styler is used to imprint the Ranger's feelings of friendship onto Pokémon. So it goes without saying that a good Ranger is one who really cares for living things.
- Snake: A Ranger needs spirit over skill, it seems.

-= DARKRAI =- (Pokémon Diamond/Pearl)
- Campbell: Watch out, Snake! That's Darkrai you're facing!
- Snake: Darkrai? You mean this shady-looking Pokémon?
- Campbell: Darkrai is a Dark-type Pokémon that specializes in inflicting nightmares on its victims. It's also known to create a Dark Void, which acts like a black hole to another realm.
- Snake: Sure looks like something that nightmares are made of.
- Campbell: Hm. Are you sure you're the one who's really scared, Snake? Darkrai tends to be reclusive, and only deals nightmares in self-defense. It naturally means no harm.
- Snake: So I've cornered this fox and spooked it. No wonder it's so dangerous.

-= KIRBY =- (Kirby's Dreamland)
- Otacon: Snake! Watch out!
- Snake: For what? That pink marshmallow?
- Otacon: That's Kirby, also known as "Kirby from Dream Land." He's from another planet--in other words, an extraterrestrial. He's got a powerful stomach that lets him swallow and digest anything. And he also has a Copy Ability that allows him to mimic opponents, steal their moves, and use those moves against them. On top of that, he has the power to fly around the stage, so once he's got you in his sights, there's no place to run.
- Snake: ...Huh? Yeah, got it. I'll keep an eye out.

-= META KNIGHT =- (Kirby's Adventure)
- Snake: Mei Ling, there's a mysterious masked man flying around here with a sword...
- Mei Ling: That's Meta Knight. He's a knight from Dream Land. They say his sword swings can break the sound barrier. Whatever you do, don't get caught in one of his furious barrage attacks. He also commands the Halberd, a flying battleship.
- Snake: Mm, I've seen it. The bow looks like his mask. What kind of weirdo puts his face on the bow of a ship, anyway?
- Mei Ling: Umm, maybe he's a little narcissistic. Kind of like someone else I know.
- Snake: Really... And who would that be?
- Mei Ling: Use your imagination...

-= KING DEDEDE =- (Kirby's Dreamland)
- Snake: Look at the size of that hammer...
- Colonel: That's King Dedede you're fighting, Snake.
- Snake: Dedede? You mean it's not a penguin, Colonel?
- Colonel: He's the King of Dream Land. Well, so he says, anyway.
- Snake: Are you sure he's not a penguin?
- Colonel: One full swing from that hammer can level an entire building. It may look like just a big wooden mallet, but it's actually outfitted with special mechanical systems like turbo jets and precision bearings to boost its effectiveness.
- Snake: I don't think I could even lift that thing. And he's swinging it around like it was nothing...
- Colonel: But he also leaves himself wide open. Just make sure you avoid the swing, Snake.

-= SAMUS =- (Metroid)
- Snake: Hey, Otacon. I got a woman here in a Power Suit...
- Otacon: Huh? How'd you know she was a woman? Yeah, that'd be Samus Aran, the most renowned bounty hunter in the galaxy. Her Arm Cannon packs quite a wallop. If you get hit with a charged shot from that thing, you can kiss your butt good-bye.
- Snake: Sounds like my kind of woman...
- Otacon: Yeah, well, just don't get too close, Snake. Samus is deadly. After Space Pirates killed her parents, she was raised by the Chozo and trained in the fighting arts. She's been places and seen things that people like you and me can't even begin to imagine.
- Snake: But underneath that cold, metal exterior beats the heart of a woman...

-= ZERO SUIT SAMUS =- (Metroid: Zero Mission)
- Snake: Mei Ling, Samus took her clothes off!
- Mei Ling: That's just her in the Zero Suit, Snake.
- Snake: Without that bulky Power Suit, she's gotten a lot more agile...You know, I bet if I took off all this heavy gear, I could catch her...
- Mei Ling: Um, yeah, you wish. Even without the Power Suit, all that training she did with the Chozo has made her a super athlete. I don't think a normal human could ever keep up. Just look at her.
- Snake: ...Her loss.

-= RIDLEY =- (Metroid)
- Snake: What's this big dragon thing?
- Campbell: That's Ridley you're fighting. He's the commander of the Space Pirates. There's been a long and dark history of hate between him and Samus.
- Snake: What do you mean?
- Campbell: To put it bluntly, Ridley is personally responsible for the deaths of Samus's parents. Ever since that day he led the attack on her home colony, her blood boils every time she sees him.
- Snake: A vengeful grudge...That's one of the worst sins you can steep into.
- Campbell: It's one of those things soldiers can't escape from, I'm afraid.

-= FOX =- (Star Fox)
- Snake: Colonel! That fox is fast!
- Colonel: You're fighting Fox, eh, Snake? His full name is Fox McCloud. He's the leader of the commando-for-hire unit Star Fox. They're mostly active in a galaxy known as the Lylat System. Fox and his comrades pilot all-terrain fighter crafts called Arwings. His skills in combat can turn the tide of any battle. ...You seem to have a thing with foxes, don't you, Snake?
- Snake: Don't remind me. First FOXHOUND and now this guy... I'm sick of foxes.
- Colonel: You and foxes have a long history together. You ought to be proud.

-= FALCO =- (Star Fox)
- Snake: This is Snake...
- Slippy: Copy, Snake! This is Slippy!
- Snake: Whaa--! Who is this? What are you, some kind of frog?!
- Slippy: Easy there, buddy! Just thought I'd hop on the wireless and give you a holler. Don't get mad!
- Snake: Hacked right into my channel, huh...
- Slippy: But I'm not here to mess nothin' up. Don't worry.
- Snake: ...
- Slippy: Just so ya know, Falco uses a Blaster and Reflector that I designed, just like Fox does. But Falco will kick his Reflector and send it flyin' around. Just showin' off, if you ask me.
- Snake: No reason a weapon can't have more than one use. In fact, I'd say its versatility shows how well you designed it.
- Slippy: Hey, maybe so! I feel all fuzzy now! Thanks, Snake!
- Snake: Maybe next time we meet, you can design me a weapon...

-= WOLF =- (Star Fox 64)
- Snake: Colonel, there's a guy in here who looks like a wolf...
- Colonel: You mean the fighter named Wolf.
- Snake: Wolf." Real imaginative name...
- Colonel: He's the leader of a ragtag team called "Star Wolf." They're the longtime rivals of Star Fox.
- Snake: Kind of strange for a wolf to have friends, isn't it?
- Colonel: Well, I don't think he works well with others. I suppose they're more like hangers-on than actual comrades. But he's a remarkable pilot. And his ship, the "Wolfen," is no slouch either.
- Snake: But this is hand-to-hand combat, Colonel. He's out of his element.
- Colonel: Careful, Snake. Those claws of his aren't just for show.

-= KRYSTAL =- (Star Fox Adventures)
- Snake: ...
- Rose: Snake, are you gawking at Krystal?
- Snake: Huh? Err, no. Of course not. She's not my type.
- Rose: Okay...Well, anyway, Krystal is the sole survivor of the tribe of Cerina. She was saved in Sauria by Fox, and she's been with their team ever since.
- Snake: Sounds like a romantic ending.
- Rose: Don't be silly, Snake. Their relationship had its ups and downs, too. But onto her battle style, she uses a Krazoa Staff much like a lance. It also lets her use various long-range and short-range spells, so mind your position.

-= NESS =- (EarthBound)
- Colonel: That kid... Isn't that Ness?
- Snake: Ness?
- Colonel: He may look like a mere boy, but don't let that fool you. He has PSI abilities that defy all scientific explanation.
- Snake: Just like Psycho Mantis...
- Colonel: Exactly. He can use teleportation, levitation, pyrokinesis, and psychokinesis.
- Snake: Yeah, but the question is, can he read minds?
- Colonel: Not to my knowledge, no.
- Snake: Good. Then I won't have to worry about him predicting my every move.
- Colonel: Even if he had telepathic powers, I don't think he'd use them to mess with you like that. I hear he's a good kid.

-= LUCAS =- (Mother 3)
- Mei Ling: I see you're fighting Lucas, Snake.
- Snake: Lucas?
- Mei Ling: That boy has PSI powers, which he can use for different kinds of attacks. But the poor little guy's had such a hard life. His mother was killed when he was young, and he was separated from his brother. After that, he faced all kinds of senseless hardships, and he slowly grew stronger.
- Snake: Senseless hardships--yeah, I had a lot of those too. The question is how you translate those hardships into a better future.
- Mei Ling: ...Mmm. Well, I hope things turn out okay for him.

-= CLAUS =- (Mother 3)
- Snake: This redhead looks a lot like Lucas.
- Campbell: Hmm, you must be fighting his twin brother, Claus. Claus went to avenge their mother's death, but wound up being severely injured. The Pigmask Army took advantage of this and sealed his heart, using his lethal PSI skills--namly PK Love to pull the Seven Needles.
- Snake: Like a puppet on a string...but they actually did all that with a child...?!
- Campbell: Exactly. He didn't have a clue what he was doing. All he could do was obey Porky without question or second thoughts.
- Snake: Sounds more worse than Gray Fox's fate...

-= NINTEN =- (Mother)
- Naomi: That boy...he must be Ninten.
- Snake: Ninten? That's a weird name, if you ask me.
- Naomi: He's the great-grandson of researchers George and Maria, who is gifted with PSI abilities. They were studying an alien visitor named Giegue, who would later attack them and much later try to conquer the planet. Ninten rose up to the crisis and joined with new friends to face this threat.
- Snake: Stopping an alien invasion...That sounds too risky for a 12-year-old.
- Naomi: It is. But along the way, Ninten learned a melody from Maria, which he used to stop Giegue. It's interesting, actually...how learning about your ancestors can really help you in your future. And that a simple melody of love can bring the light of hope and make evils wither.
- Snake: It's too bad that love and hope alone can't solve all of the world's problems today. But learning about your past really does help in the future.
- Naomi: Right, Snake. I won't stop learning, either.

-= MARTH =- (Fire Emblem)
- Mei Ling: Snake, have you ever heard the saying "Politics make strange bedfellows"?
- Snake: Don't tell me that's a Chinese proverb.
- Mei Ling: Err, no...It means that when the going gets tough, you may need unexpected partnerships in order to succeed. Marth was a prince whose kingdom was usurped. He didn't even have an army to fight with him. But as he battled his way forward, he found new allies, and in the end, he was able to restore the war-torn land of Altea.
- Snake: So, he built his army from the ranks of his defeated enemies...
- Mei Ling: Marth did his share of fighting, too. Even when he had an army, he was always alongside his men in the thick of battle. Then he was betrayed by one of his most trusted allies. I can't even imagine how that feels...
- Snake: ...I can.

-= IKE =- (Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance)
- Snake: This swordsman's gonna be tough to beat.
- Colonel: Fighting Ike, eh, Snake? Ike is the leader of the Greil Mercenaries. He may look too refined to be a fighter... but he has one heck of a sword arm.
- Snake: Yeah, he's swinging that two-handed sword around with only one hand. I don't even want to get near him.
- Colonel: That's the holy blade of Ragnell. It's an extremely powerful sword. But don't forget, Snake, you're armed to the teeth yourself. To your opponents, you might just be their worst nightmare. The distance between you and your enemy is a crucial element in battle. Using that distance can give you an advantage against some enemies.
- Snake: Yeah, I've got the same feeling...

-= LYN =- (Fire Emblem GBA)
- Otacon: Looks like you're fighting Lyndis, Snake.
- Snake: Yeah. I can't expect an easy fight here, though.
- Otacon: You can say that again. Lyn is a skilled swordswoman from the Sacaen Plains. With that Mani Katti, she can slice the air itself. I'd be careful getting near her.
- Snake: You don't need to lecture me on the obvious like some police officer, Otacon.
- Otacon: C'mon now, remember what Sniper Wolf told you? Women are usually better soldiers than men. And Lyn, by herself, has beat plenty of men in her battles.
- Snake: Alright, fine! Sheesh, cut me some slack.

-= CAPT. FALCON =- (F-Zero)
- Snake: Hey! That's Captain Falcon, isn't it!
- Otacon: Good eye, Snake! He's F-Zero pilot number 07!
- Snake: You know, seeing Captain Falcon here reminds me... We should do that thing we've always wanted to try...
- Otacon: Ohhhh yeah! That thing! Good idea! OK, ready? Go!
- Snake: Falcon Puuuunch!
- Otacon: Falcon Kiiiiiiick!

-= OLIMAR =- (Pikmin)
- Mei Ling: Snake, have you heard of the ancient Chinese story, "The Vain Ocean of Wealth and Splendor" from the Zhen Zhong Ji?
- Snake: I've been waiting for the movie.
- Mei Ling: Basically, it's meant to express the impermanence of all things. You know, like even when Captain Olimar has lots of Pikmin with him, they could all be gone the next moment. Those poor little guys--they carry, they fight, they multiply...and they get eaten. Olimar might have lots of company one minute and be all alone the next. It's so sad.
- Snake: But he can pluck out more Pikmin anytime he wants, right?
- Mei Ling: Well, yeah, I suppose so.
- Snake: No one truly fights alone. Not even me.
- Mei Ling: ...You're absolutely right, Snake. Good luck! I'm rooting for you!

-= PROF. LAYTON =- (Professor Layton and the Curious Village)
- Snake: Naomi, isn't that Professor Layton?
- Naomi: Good eye, Snake! Professor Layton is a famous archaeologist and puzzle enthusiant. His keen intuition has gotten him mistaken for a detective on many occasions.
- Snake: But he does so anyway, because helping others is what a gentleman does, huh?
- Naomi: In any case, through learning, Layton does more than study artifacts and solve puzzles. He's exceptionally skilled with the blade. Keep your guard up. Otherwise, this battle will be over before you can say "puzzle solved"!

-= AGENT J =- (Elite Beat Agents)
- Otacon: Snake, I see you ran into Agent J.
- Snake: Nobody told me the CIA was onto us!
- Otacon: Oh, he's not CIA. He's an Elite Beat Agent, from a completely different agency.
- Snake: Elite Beat--? Are you making this up?
- Otacon: No, not at all! Elite Beat Agents answer cries of help around the world. Through the power of song and dance, they build up rhythm, which is translated into hardened willpower for the client.
- Snake: So these agents are basically advanced cheerleaders. Interesting.
- Otacon: But, as you can guess, dancing can be a dangerous weapon. J's not gonna be a pushover.
- Snake: Maybe after this, he can perform for all of us at the Nomad.

-= ICE CLIMBERS =- (Ice Climber)
- Snake: So those two are the Ice Climbers, huh?
- Mei Ling: Snake, have you ever heard of a "blood bond"?
- Snake: Sure.
- Mei Ling: It refers to a bond between two people that's so strong they'd die for each other. The Ice Climbers have conquered frozen glaciers and dangerous mountaintops together. I think they've formed a bond that we can't even fathom.
- Snake: I dunno. Seems to me they'd get in each other's way fighting to see who gets to the top first.
- Mei Ling: Snake, in China they say, "Though brothers may quarrel at home, outside they defend each other from slight".
- Snake: Is that really a Chinese proverb?
- Mei Ling: Even though they may get in each other's way occasionally, they'll pull together in times of need. They're an inseparable team, Snake. Don't underestimate them!

-= PIT =- (Kid Icarus)
- Snake: Otacon, there's a kid with wings out here. Is he a mutant? Or is he just into costumes?
- Otacon: That's Pit, Snake. Pit is an angel from Angel Land. He's the captain of Palutena's Army.
- Snake: Angels. Give me a break!
- Otacon: I dunno, maybe he's from a different species. But those wings on his back and those mysterious weapons he has are the real deal. He may look young, but he's a veteran warrior. Watch yourself. He used to be a weakling, but countless trials over the years have toughened him up.
- Snake: And by trials, you mean, "Game Overs"?
- Otacon: Yeah, you should know all about that.

-= LITTLE MAC =- (Punch-Out!!)
- Snake: Rose, you've been in New York for some time, right?
- Rose: Sure. Why?
- Snake: Maybe you know some things about Little Mac.
- Rose: Well, Little Mac is a...rather small boxer in the WVBA. He challenged his way through much larger opponents, eventually winning his way to the championship belt.
- Snake: Much like David and Goliath, huh?
- Rose: In any case, be careful getting near if his SP is high, or else you'll get clobbered by a Three-Star Punch!

-= MR. GAME & WATCH =- (Game & Watch Gallery)
- Snake: Otacon, there's a guy walking around in here...and he's only got two dimensions!
- Otacon: That's Mr. Game & Watch. He comes from a world where everything is flat. Game & Watch was a series of portable games released by Nintendo in 1980. They were powered by large-scale integrated circuits and only had mono-chrome LCD displays, so characters kind of looked like the numbers on a calculator. The guy you're looking at now, Mr. Game & Watch, was a character who appeared in these games.
- Snake: This is making my head hurt.
- Otacon: Well, um... He's... I mean... Look, just start fighting him, and I'm sure everything will make sense.
- Snake: ...

-= R.O.B. =- (Gyromite)
- Otacon: So, Snake, you're fighting Robot?
- Snake: Yeah, it's a robot. Although, couldn't they have come up with a better name?"
- Otacon: Actually, in the U.S. they called him 'R.O.B.' Robot, R.O.B.--take your pick."
- Snake: Fine. R.O.B. it is, then.
- Otacon: In North America, R.O.B.'s body was grey, like the NES. But in Japan, he had a white body and red arms, the colors of the Japanese Famicom.
- Snake: You sure know your geeky tech stuff, Otacon.
- Otacon: Well, you know...

-= MII =- (Mii Channel)
- Naomi: Is that a Mii you're facing?
- Snake: A Mii?
- Naomi: Miis are customizable avatars for the Nintendo Wii and the DSi. Facial features, shirt color, height, weight, accessories...any combination can produce many possibilities. There are even some players who design Miis to look like various characters. So, this might mean...
- Snake: That there's a Mii somewhere that looks like me?
- Naomi: Possibly.
- Snake: Like that would happen.

-= SNAKE =- (Metal Gear)
- Snake: Colonel, it's me! I'm fighting myself!
- Colonel: Snake, what's going on out there?! Could it be...? Has the "Les Enfants Terribles" project really come this far?
- Snake: It's more than that. He's got my moves, my gear...It's like looking in a mirror.
- Colonel: Do you think they collected data on you and created another Snake...?
- Snake: He's got the same build, too. Creepy. But his Sneaking Suit is a different color. And his tactics are slightly different.
- Colonel: Interesting. So even if you're evenly matched in power, your fighting styles will make a big difference. You've faced tougher odds in the past, Snake. Don't let this impostor beat you!

-= SONIC =- (SONIC THE HEDGEHOG)
- Snake: ...
- Otacon: Snake, what is it?
- Snake: Something about that hedgehog rubs me the wrong way...
- Otacon: ...? Oh, you mean Sonic The Hedgehog? But everyone loves Sonic. He's a big star. Do you have any idea how excited people are that he's here in Scuffle?
- Snake: Yeah, I know, but there's something about him I just don't like.
- Otacon: But...why? You must have some kind of reason.
- Snake: ...Nope, just don't like him.

-= CHOCOBO =- (Final Fantasy II)
- Snake: There's something endearing about this bird...
- Campbell: I see you're fighting Chocobo. That treasure hunter's got more tricks up his wings than you'd think. He uses different skills through "Job Change."
- Snake: Job Change?
- Campbell: Basically, it lets Chocobo switch from one fighting style to another. His Jobs include Natural, Knight, Black Mage, and White Mage. Each one of them involves different strengths and techniques.
- Snake: So in short, Chocobo can turn into four different warriors?
- Campbell: Right. Training with different Jobs is no different than learning how to use different weapons or fighting styles. A versatile soldier is hard to achieve, but it's worth it.

-= SORA =- (Kingdom Hearts)
- Snake: Rose, what kind of key is that? The one that boy is holding?
- Rose: Well, that boy is Sora...so that key has to be the Keyblade. It's a legendary weapon that can open and close any lock--namely locks of the worlds' hearts.
- Snake: Is that so?
- Rose: Yeah, and it allows Sora to use various magic spells, like Blizzard and Aero. Plus, he's a pretty good jumper, and he can even glide.
- Snake: I see. Go back to the part about how the Keyblade can open any lock.
- Rose: I know what you're thinking, Snake, and it won't work. The Keyblade has a sentience that will only answer to Sora. Sorry, you'll have to stick to PAN cards.
- Snake: ...

-= NEKU =- (The World Ends With You)
- Joshua: Well, hey there, Snake.
- Snake: Huh...?
- Joshua: You can call me Joshua. Anyway, I couldn't help but notice that you're fighting my buddy, Neku Sakuraba.
- Snake: Neku...You must mean this kid here with the headphones.
- Joshua: Yeah, not the most social folk out there, is he? Hee hee...Anyway, like in the Reapers' Game, Neku uses various psychs drawn from pins. I swear I've seen him packing psychs like Pyrokinesis, Fire Barrier, and Cure Drink. He might be a challenge.
- Snake: How do you know what's going on here?
- Joshua: Well, I hope my advice helped you, Snake.
- Snake: Barely. And why are you giving me tips if that's your friend, anyway?
- Joshua: Let's just say he could use the workout. You know, so he can repay a favor he owes. Sometime soon...Hee hee hee...
- Snake: ...?

-= NiGHTS =- (NiGHTS Into Dreams...)
- Naomi: Hmm...It looks like you're fighting NiGHTS.
- Snake: NiGHTS? You mean this jester-looking thing?
- Naomi: NiGHTS is a First-Level Nightmaren. It defected because it disliked being restrained and ordered by Wizeman.
- Snake: "It"? Are you saying NiGHTS is genderless?
- Naomi: What, do you expect Nightmarens to have genders? In any case, NiGHTS is a great flier, so it's most dangerous in the air. Fortunately, this makes it pretty light.
- Snake: How could someone not be a he or she?
- Naomi: Well...that's kind of hard to answer, considering it comes from a plane different from ours.
- Snake: ...
