"You walk around the world to recruit troops from other PSP users you meet in the real world." So Streetpass 5 years before the 3DS.

[@svenbtb]

Why is everyone in the comments saying this? The PSP wasn't able to do that. Especially given the quote from Kojima, it sounds pretty specific to you playing with others, and then "connecting" in that way would add their character to your world. He said nothing at all that indicated a Streetpass-like feature. The PSP didn't automatically connect to other systems in the way that Streetpass did.

[@maou5025]

[@ToshisGarden]

​@@KimarnicI wouldn't say it's "awful". It's the best-playing game in the series as far as controls, its gameplay and many elements of its design are very customizeable to your liking, and it's a great game to play when you just want to pop something in and just kill a few hours relaxing. You could do FAAAAAR worse. I think a better term here is "not for you". ^^

I can't believe that Platinum Games developed MGRR in 9 months, it must have been pure hell, that's probably why they were very reluctant with Kojima when he mentioned MGRR2

@@mokat yeah but every plot point is completed in mgs2 by the end. In mgs5 you see Eli escape with Sahelanthropus in the game and then... nothing. Game doesn't follow it up it just leaves it like that, so it kinda is unfinished.

[@mokat]

@@Slavic_Snake that's fair. have you heard the phantom pain theory? it's the theory that the game's story was intentionally left unfinished to give players the feeling of something being missing I myself kinda agree but also think it's a bit copium

It'll be nice to see MGS Rising, cause I'd really like to see how'd the gameplay was going to be, and how the story would've looked like for Raiden's transformation from human to cyborg.

Great content DYKG!

[@MrMegaManFan]

I can't even watch a video about unreleased Metal Gear games now without hearing Mr. Hayter in my head.

[@abdelali9279]

The projects I really wanted to see through were the Cobra Unit's WWII game and the remakew of Metal Gear 1 & 2, especially after the ending of The Phantom Pain, encountering Venom Snake as it appeared in the final cinematic of that game but now as the final boss of MG1 would've been amazing

[@safebox36]

The funny thing about the card game is MGS did eventually get an official one coming later this year (along with a few unofficial ones that are worth checking out). Edit: never mind, you covered it later in the vid

17:16 - Zanzibar was the setting of Metal Gear 2. The original game was set in the fortress of Outer Heaven.

[@marciohenrique6465]

For me, the most interesting ideas were the Sorrow Sandbox Game, The Minna’s Metal Gear, although I have no clue how It would’ve worked and The Coop Boss Fights Game, which would be amazing, because it would make those boss fights feel and play different than solo and also, would be the first real coop experience in the series, that would certainly atract new players to franchise.

Great vid overall but just wanted to mention at 15:58, you guys say MG NES was developed by the same company that was going to make the Amiga port, Banana Development. This isn't correct, the NES version was handled internally at Konami by a different team. This was confirmed in interviews with Kojima. Charles didn't work on the NES version.

[@toanuva6178]

7:04 I have the suspicion, even though this would've been before 5 came out, that this was where the idea of MGS Survive stemmed from.

[@megaene]

That "Minna Metal Gear" idea sounds awesome! A Metal Gear/Animal Crossing chimera that relies heavily on social life and connectivity, what's not to love? Although I don't think it'd been successful in the mid 2000s, today it'd be possible to pull off such idea successfully. Too bad Konami is allergic to cool ideas.

[@meganpayette5996]

That type of game COULD work as a mobile title.

[@screamingfalcon71]

They're allergic to things that will ACTUALLY make money. Metal Gear Survive is proof of that.

[@spartan117ak]

im sorry but stopping to explain the invasion of Normandy using Saving Private Ryan has to be the most ridiculous thing I've heard.

[@Kdkjdjewerdnxa]

A huge amount of American children are literally illiterate, they’re more likely to have seen a movie or played a roblox d-day map than have basic knowledge of ww2.

[@DJIVision]

According to surveys, most Americans can't even find Iraq or Afghanistan on a map. So when I was writing this video, I figured it was probably necessary to provide context for Normandy for the (probably high) percentage of viewers unfamiliar with WW2. Still got the problem of "well what if those people haven't even heard of Saving Private Ryan," but at that point I'm at a loss how to provide context in ~5 seconds. Can't have the video suddenly become a WW2 history lesson.

[@raafmaat]

nah, he was just talking about normandy, and then just saying like: " you know, like where saving private ryan takes place!"

[@BigGahmBoss]

Just cuz it's common knowledge to you, doesn't mean everyone knows it. And the further from the event we get, the less relevant it becomes. That's just the nature of time

I liked the idea of the sorrow game, i hope Konami use that idea

[@goranisacson2502]

I wonder if the Platinum team ignored Kojima's ideas because they were burnt out after that 9 month dev cycle, or if they had to go through Konami's management and basically couldn't talk to him directly... or if they just didn't want to bother with him after they felt they handled the first one "on their own" so to speak. Maybe if they had a year, we could have had a much smoother weapon-change system ala DMC, rather than the MGS system that slowed things down... At any rate, I wish we could have seen the CObra Unit game, I feel like that could have been the most interesting story, but at the same time Metal Gear feels like it got so stuck in the past and kept going back to Big Boss instead of going on to the future, maybe this hypothetical game would become interesting to fans of the Cobra Unit, but not really interesting to anyone else.

[@screamingfalcon71]

Wait, wasn't the setting of the first Metal Gear in Galuade/Outer Heaven and Metal Gear 2: Solid Snake was in Zanzibarland?

[@NeverKetamine]

Galuade was Ghost Babel.

[@screamingfalcon71]

@@NeverKetamine Tell me you never played MGS:GB without telling me you never played MGS:GB. The whole game takes place in the same place as Metal Gear. You can even find the remains of the original Metal Gear battle tank during the events of the game.

[@NeverKetamine]

@screamingfalcon71 I don't know what to tell you, it's a very easy fact and distinction to Google. GB takes place in an alternate timeline, one in which MG1 happened in a different time and location and with completely different events. The mainline Metal Gear series doesn't have any appearance of Galuade in it, it's a location exclusive to Ghost Babel. There's a 4th wall breaking reference to Ghost Babel that mentions Galuade in MGS4 if you look at the description of the FiveSeven but that's the only reference in the mainline series. What were you saying about having not played GB? Seems like I'm the only one that really paid attention to the details here.

[@screamingfalcon71]

@NeverKetamine And you're missing the whole point of them mentioning the wrong location. The first game took place in the mercenary fortress Outer Heaven (in an alternate timeline, it was repurposed into Galuade, making it the same place with a new name) and not Zanzibarland, which was the location from the second game.

[@NeverKetamine]

@screamingfalcon71 Nope, you're missing it entirely. If it's the wrong location then there's no point to it besides a simple mistake on their part. Galuade and Outer Heaven aren't the same place, they're two different locations albeit with pretty much the same narrative purpose in two different unrelated universes. It's like how Solid Snake from the AC!D games is a completely different person to the mainline Solid Snake. Same name and fill a similar role, but they're completely seperate. No idea why you're pulling up Zanzibarland, I never mentioned it myself. This conversation is quite disjointed because it's just you not understanding what I'm saying, and because of that I have no use for it. Do some googling and calm down, maybe reread what I've said a couple times until you get it.

[@SamButler22]

[@keijijohnson9754]

If they still wanted to make a Metal Gear Rising 2, which I doubt will ever happen at all anymore unfortunately, they should've had it be what Metal Gear SOLID Rising was going to be. That's where Kojima screwed up there: not pitching his original vision for it as a prequel to the game we got now

I've played that one before, it wasn't so bad. Unless there was another MGS planned for the N-gage which was canceled.

[@GomerJ]

There's not any reason MGS4 can't be on other platforms other than for whatever reason Konami hasn't cashed in on that..yet. I know the excuse is that it was built around the PS3's analog buttons but my only experience playing through the game was on my PS5 during the window where it was streamable on PS Now and I had no problems without the analog button presses.

[@zombieslvbacon]

8 minute unstoppable ad why?!

[@mrpinguimninja]

Kojima seems like the kind of person who will have the broadest and least specific idea, then ask someone to develop it, and if they don't, it's their fault for not being able to realize his vision

[@PainCausingSamurai]

"Metal Gear: Sorrow" does have a nice ring to it.

[@asnierkishcowboy]

Man we need another Metal Gear Rising. A game featuring the Boss during WW2 wouldve been so awesome.Only question is, if Kojima dared to me sneak into a concentration camp. Gameplaywise this woulve made an interessting rescue mission. "Your objective is to find and save Ariel Rotman, the greatest researcher of the Wehrmachts special development division the "Waffenkammer!". To our knowledge he is located in a prison facility called "Buchenwald". No one knows whats going on inside." Man..this is too insane to pull off.

[@mspirits9911]

As for the tcg cards, it seems they ended releasing it once for Japan only. It was 2003-2004 and I was studying in Japan at the time. Visited a book and hobby store where one floor is dedicated for all kinds of popular anime stuffs and one corner they have hundreds of tcg from all the popular anime at the time, one that made me realize the trend of that time, if you are popular, you must have a tcg. Anyway, I saw metal gear solid tcg, but being me a poor student and not into tcg at that time, I skipped it and bought a single booster of Final Fantasy Tactics Advance TCG instead. If only I have the knowledge how rare this could be....

[@D0Gdidthemath]

16:14 I'm confused, the text you show here explains that they made the DOS version based on the Famicom/NES version, and not that they made the NES version based on the MSX version. but then you say that they made the NES version?

[@LiquidSevens]

It's a mistake. Ernst only worked on the DOS port, the NES port was made in-house at Konami. But it's true that the DOS version was created from scratch & based on the NES version.

[@ComaAlpha]

I built two or three Pokemon decks that I was rather proud of and couldn't find a single person to play against. Everyone and their mama had Magic decks though. I guess I wasn't cool enough.

[@whateverwhatever4026]

That's why Kojima is God. We'd all love a WW2 Boss/Cobra Unit game and and Frank Yeager/Cyborg Ninja game and we've all been saying it for years and years. Probably why Kojima likes those ideas. He already knows we'd want them....

[@megaene]

I remember the teaser for Rising back in the day, and I loved it. I still loved Revengeance, but I always regretted not being able to see those events in Raiden's life. Some dialogues in mgs4 implies the core events (rescuing Sunny from the Patriots, getting his jaw destroyed, being saved and roboticized by Madnar from mg1) still happened, but it's not the same as going through them.

[@Kimarnic]

[@squidjam]

"We could have had this but Metal Gear"... Context is key to journalistic endeavors, right? Because, back in the day this was released to be competing against the Gameboy (DMG and pocket), the Sega game gear, and the Atari Lynx. (And this is only in the West, can't remember what was the case then with the Wonderswan and the Neogeo Pocket). Ghost Babel came out for the color and it works just fine, meanwhile a Gameboy color port of Resident Evil exists but was canceled.

I had it when it came out. Not good, even then. Super disappointing Christmas gift choice on my part.

Being sociable and making connections with people IRL became CQC them and strap a balloon on. You can tell what a good guy Hideo is just from things like that, and how execs really stifle his creativity for dollars.

Why does Kojima ignored Twins Snakes remake?
