Plus, since when do the Shadows on the Midnight Channel have conversations with the viewer, as opposed to talking like a normal TV show? That, and his shadow pretty much daring you to kill him seemed fairly out of character given what shadows tended to do beforehand.
Well Mitsuo's midnight channel shadow pretty much talked to the players but I see your point, Namatame's was basically egging the team on which I believe was the whole point of it. The game never really tried making him out to be the killer and the choice with Namatame wasn't to decide he was the killer, but simply to see if everyone would give in to deception and place all the blame on him, killing Namatame in blind rage without trying to see the truth.
I always had suspicions about Adachi, simple because he was giving us too much to go on but it was after I noticed he started leading me towards certain thoughts like telling Yosuke about Namatame hitting on Saki or in the hospital. What really made me feel off was after Naoto's dungeon, when he comes in hammered. Usually it's Dojima drinking because these incidents aren't getting any closer to getting solved but this time it was Adachi drinking after the "missing people" started happening again.
If by the time you find Namatame, you aren't at least suspecting Adachi of something then you're not all that genre-savy with mysteries. Though I suppose if you don't suspect him and think he can't be capable of murder, all the following scenes are all the more intense. I do like in the anime where they point out Mitsuo never being rescued by Namatame despite being on the midnight channel, pointing towards someone else putting him in.
