Talk:Bass

"though it's possible that Bass was unaware that King was under the employ of Wily" It's not possible, it's definitely true. In-game dialog goes something like this:

King: "Get out of here, the place is doing to blow!" Bass: "One question first. Who built you?" King: "...what would you do if I said it was Dr. Wily?" Bass: "Wh... WHAT!?"

Identification Number?
As far as I knew, Bass's identification number was unknown. What game says that it's SWN-001?
 * None. It's shown in sourcebooks and manuals. The manual from Rockman & Forte (Japanese) calls him "Special Wily Number". --Quick 02:00, 20 September 2008 (UTC)

JPG images
What's the problem with the JPG images? Those aren't graphics like sprites or mugshots, and the quality isn't low. --Quick 20:59, October 11, 2009 (UTC)

Poem
A poem about Bass from the Rockman Online Blog entry on Bass:

He casts dark black.

He casts brilliant golden light.

Is he the darkness? Is he the golden dawn?

Even in the deepest darkness, which conceals light …

does not conceal malice towards the pure motive of aspiring for power.

And though he stands to oppose the blue hero…

the two are side by side on the path they walk.

Forte comes.

Bass's Objective
According to this article, one of Bass' main objectives is "killing Mega Man". This is not true. According to Udon's Robot Master Field guide, Bass' sole objective is becoming the world's strongest robot, and Bass only attempts to kill Mega Man when it is necessary. Then again, should the RMFG be considered official? 99.111.25.182 23:55, February 26, 2013 (UTC)
 * First, defeat =/= kill. Second, I understand what you mean that the article implies that it is his primary goal to beat Mega Man, which in realty is secondary and a consequence of his primary goal (to become the strongest). Therefore, since Mega Man always trumps all other robots, it does make sense for Bass to correlate defeating Mega Man as becoming the most powerful. So in my opinion the article was fine mentioning "defeating MM" as his goal. I will leave it as it is and see what others think. If nobody objects then I will leave it.

Bass's Origin
Does Bass have any more backstories?

I always wondered why Bass and Treble and weren't named Metal and Heavy. Since Protoman is named Blues in Japanese, and Megaman and Roll are of course Rock and Roll, I figure that Heavy Metal would be the next step up. "Bass" and "Forte" are still musical references, but "Heavy Metal" sounds so much cooler. LavaringX (talk) 23:43, April 13, 2020 (UTC)
