NES Works #080: Metal Gear?!
Added 2021-08-04 12:00:05 +0000 UTCThere's the long con, and then there's waiting half a year between NES Works episode just so I could make that joke at the beginning.
Anyway, I've covered the original MSX version of Metal Gear in Metroidvania Works, but as you can see from the length of this episode, there's still plenty to say about this conversion—not only what it changes and where it stumbles, but also about the nature of new (?) publisher Ultra Games.

“Oh but you came here to see a Metal Gear video”. Jeremy, you’re sense of humor is the low key secret sauce for these videos. In addition to the in-depth knowledge and analysis, it really stirs the drink. Can’t wait for Single Dragon.
