** [[Subverted Trope|Subverted]] with the Ancient Minister and his R.O.B. Squad. While they do side with the Subspace Army initially, it becomes clear as the plot is revealed that {{spoiler|they are being forced into doing so. The villains (Ganondorf, Bowser, and Wario) under the guidance of Tabuu, have essentially enslaved them, and the Ancient Minister joins the heroes as R.O.B. for the rest of the game, essentially making him and his kind Tragic [[Anti-Villain|Anti Villains]].}}
* In ''[[Metal Walker]]'', this happens in the backstory. In contrast to the peaceful Professor Eriko, Professor Xenon wanted to use Cores for military purposes. Cue an explosion and a ruined landscape.
*''Lab of the Dead:'' While the military is not universally evil (indeed, the player sympathizes with a soldier who committed suicide, since the world is overrun with zombies), the general he is with blames science for the world’s problems, even though it was in fact the military that had caused it. A scientist helped design the virus, but she was the first one to realize there was something seriously wrong with what they were making. But the military simply did not do the right thing. And the whole world suffered for it.
