Name that Game, round 3!

6. No searching TVTropes for the quotes!

Let's rock and roll!

2. Science Team believes the Metroids can be trained. After several cycles of trying, I believe Science Team has vapor for brains.
   
3. A true gentlemen leaves no puzzle unsolved.
   
4. Farewell, my shadow, you who stand at the end of the path I chose not to follow. I wanted my own world, so I don't regret my choice. I would make the same choice all over again. I will continue to choose this path!
   
5. There's also a chance, if all goes well, that I might be able to get you back to the place that you came from.
   
6. Faker? I think you're the fake around here. You're comparing yourself to me? Ha. You're not even good enough to be my fake.
   I'll make you eat those words!
   
7. The Great Mizuti never lies nor tricks. Maybe only sometimes. Rarely. Once in a blue moon.
   
8. The wind fish in name only, for it is neither.
   
9. Master, that synthetic life-form... There is a 99% chance that it was the pirate described by the captain. I can't help but admire the tenacity it has displayed in staying alive and functional all these years.
   
10. Lightning brings the cactus pain.
    Now it all begins again.
    
11. I am Blockhead! I guard this place so that all shall pass! Er, wait... I mean, none shall pass!
    
12. Agents are... GO!
    
13. Never give up. Trust your instincts!
    
14. Did you just do what I think you did!? God damnit girl, I just spilt my joe all over the keyboard!
    
15. I'll be waiting for you-- every day, in front of Hachiko... till you come back.
