I AM ERROR 

Its actually due to poor translation that his name is ERROR, his real name is actually Errol which makes a little more sense but the piss-poor translations of the NES days turned that last L into an R, thus the enigmatic ERROR...

What the fuck does I AM ERROR mean?

I Am Error 

I Am Error

A semi-popular phrase from the second Zelda game - Zelda II: The Adventure of Link. Typically useless, but has one small line besides his trademark that is actually a hint.

Was named as a joke, as there is another NPC in the game named Bagu that looks the same. Bagu was supposed to be "Bug."

I talked to the purple guy, but all he said was "I AM ERROR."
