Dumbass.

Sakamoto is the equivalent of the American surname "Smith" in Japan. It's quite common.

But the whole point is too much fail that he won't even bother. He's probably too smart to even notice that. (and I didn't even bother clicking the link earlier :mad:)

Because this thread fails immensely.

"OH HAY SOMEONE FROM THE CREDITS OF SUPER METROID SHARES THE SAME LAST NAME AS SUE"

Seriously, who the hell cares (other than you, but of course, I'm talking about human beings), I mean, go to Japan and you can probably find at least a thousand people with the surname Sakamoto.

Hey GearStrike, your name sounds so familiar!! Gear must come from the game title Metal Gear Solid and Strike from counter Strike! You must like those two games, don't you?!!!

Heh, actually I do play those, but that's not where my name came from.

I played Guilty Gear: Dust Strikers, and that's kinda where my name came from, but yeah...I guess it came from those too.

Isn't Cave Story similar to/inspired by Metroid in certain aspects? It might not be too far-fetched to think Pixel picked the name "Sakamoto," however common it is, as a bit of a tribute to the game.

...Or that Pixel's mind subconsciously picked up the name after completing the game (and subsequently watching the credits) multiple times.

Perhaps the very fact that the name "Sakamoto" is so common is the reason why Pixel subconsciously singled out that name amongst all the others.

Or it was just a coincidence and this thread is an Epic Fail. Seriously, is that so impossible?

Cave Story was inspired by metroid as well as other games from Pixel's childhood.
