* The various [[Video Game]] consoles have moe anthropomorphisms as well—360-tan, Wii-tan, [[PlayStationPlay Station 3]]-tan, N64-tan, DS-tan, etc.
* [[Mega Man (video game)|Roll]] in the [[Halo|Covenant Hunter Suit]] from ''[[Mushroom Kingdom Fusion]]''.

*** Forget the fuel tank, Look at the [http://thuzadin.deviantart.com/gallery/?offset=24#/d1e7mrm Feminized MARV] and the position of the on-board refinery
* Lots of people have done this for GLaDOS, the [[Companion Cube]], and the turrets from ''[[Portal (series)|Portal]]''—like [http://odaleex.deviantart.com/art/PORTAL-characters-76268954 this.] There is even a "GLaDOS-tan" directly based on [[Vocaloid|Miku]], an extreme contrast to [[AIA.I. Is a Crapshoot|her personality]], [http://kazu01.deviantart.com/art/GLaDOS-76361905 here.] Want more [[Anthropomorphic Personification|Anthro]], less [[Moe]]? [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W3kKKrXbzRs&feature=related Axel787 ] and [http://makani.deviantart.com/gallery/?q=GLaDOS#/d1kmujy Ma ][http://makani.deviantart.com/gallery/?q=GLaDOS#/d3eqyjr kani ] have just the remedy you need!
