Errors/Corrections: - The Metal Gear 1 port available in the Japanese Only Twin Snakes Premium Edition was the NES Port, not the MSX original. I had my facts wrong - oops. - This game is on PC through GOG! I totally forgot. And yes, it's the MSX version.
It's not quite the MSX version though, it's basically a port of the Java phone version which doesn't play quite as smooth as the MSX original, although at least the radio transmissions are intact. If there is a translated version of the japanese MSX version that would be the optimal one to play.
I can kinda see why the bomb suit would be used to combat strong winds, since it’s big and weighs you down and would probably make you harder to be pushed around
Makes sense that the metal gear is 100 floors below ground when you remember what happened when MSF had a Metal Gear and only took normal methods to hide it. Crazy prepared is still prepared.

@Kelik The Edgelord Not as easy to the average person. Setting up emulators, making sure they work with the PC, troubleshooting controls, it's a massive hassle. Much more convenient to have a current gen Collection with each game available on it so that way thousands of people can experience the games without issues.
I played the original cartridge on an MSX2 earlier this year. There are a number of differences between it and the later ports from 2004 onward: 1. Rations don't automatically heal you when you when you take lethal damage. Like the NES version, you have to manually select them. The auto-heal mechanic was introduced in Metal Gear 2: Solid Snake. 2. The game outputs in 240p resolution, instead of 480i in MGS3: Subsistence or 720p (or 1080p? I'm not sure) in MGS3 HD. This leads to the clearest image of any version. 3. The translation has only 56% of the original dialogue due to cartridge limitations. All crucial dialogue is included, but certain weapon and item descriptions are not. Unlike the original Japanese version and the NES version, the European version doesn't tell you which items you've picked up or that you can't carry anymore for the same reason. 4. The translation is actually worse than the NES translation, though not as meme-worthy ("I feel asleep!"). The NES translation feels like it was written by a native English speaker but wasn't proofread. The MSX2 translation clearly wasn't written by someone who spoke English as their first language. 5. To save and load the game, you must connect a tape drive to the MSX2 and save to or load from the tape. It saves audio though, so I used an audio recorder instead. Alternatively, if you have the Konami Game Master 2 cheat cartridge, you can save to and load state from a floppy disk. I have the cheat cartridge but my MSX2 doesn't have a floppy drive. 6. To load the game, you have to start it, watch the intro and skip through Big Boss' initial dialogue. You can them load your save. 7. The European manual is significantly cut down from the Japanese original. It doesn't have character profiles, a diagram and description of the TX-55 or a space to write down codec frequencies. It tells you how to save but not how to load. 8. Codec frequencies are not saved, you have to write them down. 9. Bosses do not flash or make a sound when hit. 10. There is slowdown when using the mine detector and there are mines on the screen, presumably due to the amount of sprites onscreen. 11. There is no scoring screen at the end. Therefore, there is no penalty whatsoever for playing lethally. The scoring screen was introduced in Metal Gear Solid. 12. There is a way to disable the last electrified floor. If you save the game on that screen, it's no longer electrified. I discovered this accidentally. 13. Guards are more erratic. Sometimes they immediately turn to the next part of their route instead of waiting. I assume this is deliberate. You have to be more on your guard. 14. Hit detection isn't as good, so it's harder to kill guards. 15. As you might expect, there is no easy mode. 16. There are cheats in the game. You can use some to bypass the softlock that occurs if you kill too many prisoners before the tank or the TX-55 metal gear. 17. There is no boss rush mode or digital instructions. The menu screen contains one option: Press Space to start.
Trav im glad you are doing more videos of other games! I’d love to see you play the RE franchise and i think it’ll help you since there isnt a lot of good RE content on youtube
just beat this game for the first time in my life I plan on finally playing through the majority of the games so I just had to play them in release order! I love playing retro games especially when they're apart of a long lasting franchise. The growth is always so entertaining to see. This game would have been brutal without the internet lol
The MSX2 not being able to do Capcom's Commando was clearly a bluff that Kojima has told to his boss. The NES has a pretty decent port of Commando and, if the NES can, the MSX2 also can with more colors. The game is just a shmup in disguise, simpler than Aleste and Aleste 2 that are available for the system. And Kojima himself stated many times that he was fed up that the majority of games were mindless shooters and wanted to try some new formula.
@@ThatTravGuy Not really true. It's just another of those things that keep being repeated without questioning, and a lot of people mistake the MSX1 with the MSX2. Commando is a vertical scroller, so the MSX2 could have done this easily. Displaced Gamers has a very good unbiased review of the MSX platform. It's worth checking.
I think that the metal gear being a series that starts off simple with a little twist at the end is awesome. I love when big complex stories start off small and seem straight foward and then as you keep delving deeper and deeper it turns in to this huge epic complex beast. Im so happy that I didn't start with just going straight to MGS on ps1 like everyone else. I had to start with the originals and Im happy I did Playing this series from such small beginnings Thinking this is a cool special agent army game and then reaching the conclusion to the story with MGS4 was such a great and emotional experience that I would love to live through for the first time again. I don't think I will ever get to experience a story that start off from the 8bit era and ends on PS3. Getting sad just thinking about it. 😂
Metal gear 2 solid snake is definitely the one where the series developed its signature story driven element. The first game to me feels more like a military themed version of the first zelda on NES. Which is by no means a bad thing especially for the time!
When I visited my father in Dominican Republic he gave me his MSX2 and played the Spanish Metal Gear and later got the ENG version years after I got the NES in 88 in the US. I even got the Commodore 64 Metal Gear.
Snake after outer heaven goes boom: "This is Snake, I've successfully completed the mission!" HQ: "Good job Snake! Did you rescue all the hostages?" Snake "..." HQ: "Did you?"
16:42 The NES version came with a map that had doors and things labeled, so you knew what card you needed to use when you got to a door. So imo, it's totally ok to use a map for Metal Gear 1.
The Metal Gear 1 in The Twin Snakes bonus disc isn't actually the MSX version, it's the Famicom version, which is basically the NES version in Japanese.
My actual first Metal Gear 1 experience WAS that phone port, I have no idea how I got it, prolly a .jar on a totally legit website, but yeah finished the game during class and everything! Can't wait for the nes port talk, I dunno, its so crusty but i cant help but love it a bit? same with Snakes Revenge, maybe i just like trash who knows. Great video and stuff!
05:39 i'm pretty sure that this is not a swastika. It's a japanese symbol that means something that i forgot😂. I definitely seen it in one of the episodes of anime "Great teacher Onizuka".
I absolutely loved the exploration focus from the first two MSX games, however I felt like it got a little bit stale in the second half of the first game
I played the Special Disc that comes with Japanese twin snakes and that version is just a Japanese version of the NES Version which is so bizzare since that NES port is considered non-canon lol
HEY now that i have your attention BPM got an uptake awhile ago with more characters you should do another review like you did with the doom eternal dlcs
So i, along with 9 million other kids, played the SHIT out of OG nes metal gear back in the day and it was glorious. It was a colossal mess, but we didn’t know any better. So yeah I think if you were accustomed to 8 bit nes games then yeah, you’d have played it and liked it.
im so stressed, i feel down, i have so many things to do, so little time, im working while watching this and this part 13:07 made me laugh for a good 10 seconds i don't know why, i think it's because i know the whole mgs story or something i dont care but i laughed! suddenly i felt great i can't explain a ssimple thing like that made my day, - sorry for the long comment haha - god thanks man,
5:38 swastikas are waaaaaaaay older than Nazi Germany. They are very common on all eastern Asian countries. They are a symbol of peace and good luck and all other kinds of good things (each country has it own meaning, but in none is a bad thing).
The “they fly now” joke is kinda ironic considering that the actor from Rise of Skywalker (Oscar Isaac) is currently cast as Snake for the upcoming MGS movie
Look, I know MGSV had problems, but when you eventually get to it, please be fair. I recommend FuturaSound’s videos about it. There is SO much depth baked into everything in Phantom Pain, yet everyone insists on saying it’s all filler when that’s blatantly untrue.
All that time doing boring stealth missions in Africa and Afghan, trying to make something out of your Dogs, and riding the chopper over and over again... just to die to a fucking rookie...
I cannot wait to see Trav attempting to explain a puzzle where you have to hatch an owl from an egg to trick a guard into thinking it's nighttime so he will turn off a laser fence. Neutralizing puddles of acid with rations that contain chocolate bars and luring, ahem, *the deadly poisonous Zanzibar hamster* out of a vent with a ration containing cheese are icing on the cake.
Not really. The only game that's been retconned out of the timeline was Portable Ops. Small details connecting every game's lore have been retconned in just about every game, but they're not as massive as removing entire games from Canon
"Punished Madnar" is the best throwaway joke I have ever heard
The first Metal Gear’s story compared to the rest of the series is the literal equivalent to those lore vs lore memes.
Remember, Snake considered the hostages "saved" when he found them. Whatever happened next, Outer Heaven explosion or otherwise, is someone else's problem.
A true hero.
...That's a plot point in 2 was it not?
@@tsyumamatsuthehavenofguard32 You might be right.
@@tsyumamatsuthehavenofguard32 lets just say that the resistance forces werent too pleased with Outer Heaven being blown up with their own members inside and in close proximity...
Not to mention that you just leave them where they are, whether it be in a room surrounded by soldiers, toxic gas, electrical panels, or deep water.

Remember when this was a simple story with one real twist, and then the ps1 happened?
Good times.
No. Not even the ps1 yet and the game that came after this one was already heavier on the lore.
Still simplistic compared to the rest tho
You’re forgetting Metal Gear 2.
Nostalgia goggles leads one to be very short-sighted...
...I wish Kojima would confirm if he will go to movies or something more for games
Metal Gear 2 is better and came before the PS1
Trav covering Metal Gear. I've been waiting for this day for so long...
Me too !!
"Kept you waiting huh"
I can kinda see why the bomb suit would be used to combat strong winds, since it’s big and weighs you down and would probably make you harder to be pushed around
What a coincedence that this happened to be uploaded on the day that I searched for a metal gear msx review
It's funny how MGS3 references the Great Escape, which in turn was what inspired Metal Gear 1.
I think I laughed more than I should of when you pronounced Kojima "Kojumbo".
Fun, informative review dude. You nailed it!
I was a child in the 80s so Metal Gear 1 and 2 was a fantastic experience for me as an adult when i got Subsistence.
Thats badass dude
Makes sense that the metal gear is 100 floors below ground when you remember what happened when MSF had a Metal Gear and only took normal methods to hide it. Crazy prepared is still prepared.

Wish they'd release this series on modern systems, having to go back as far as 7th gen machines to play them at latest is pretty yikes
Me in the year 2050 playing MGS4 on a PS3 because they still haven’t ported it to anything else.
You can play Metal Gear and Metal Gear 2 on Xbox Series X and nearly every other Metal Gear game (including Peace Walker) except MGS1 and 4
Have you tried Xbox? You can play a lot of games from the original Xbox on the Xbox One, which is not the first Xbox, and is like the 3rd or 4th Xbox
They absolutely need to port the games, Konami are a bunch of idiots though.

i fricking love watching your videos. Your a huge inspiration for my channel. keep up the good work.

Excited for the Merry Gear Episode
for trav guy merch, you should add the Trav Slayer too

Alright your a man of culture. Im subbing
Trav have you played a game called splatter house that came out in 2010 it's badass hope you review it one day
Wish someone would take a crack at a modern game these mechanics.
3:43 Its as complex as actual Metal Gear lore lol!
2:47 the name Madnar was originated from Metal Gear 2 even on the MSX version
I like how you made the location outer heaven
I absolutely loved the exploration focus from the first two MSX games, however I felt like it got a little bit stale in the second half of the first game

Actually it makes sense when you understand that Kojima barely had anything to do with Twin Snakes either.
you have locked yourself into something, now you must cover Metal Gear Rising: Revengance
Because of my ungodly mix of American accents (New York, Californian, Midwest) the way I say “MSX” sounds like “Emma Sex”
HEY now that i have your attention BPM got an uptake awhile ago with more characters you should do another review like you did with the doom eternal dlcs
Oh, so you did eventually find where Outer Heaven is located?
Can't wait for you to try the two phantom pain games (prequel then the actual phantom pain) and MGS survival (maybe)
So i, along with 9 million other kids, played the SHIT out of OG nes metal gear back in the day and it was glorious. It was a colossal mess, but we didn’t know any better.
So yeah I think if you were accustomed to 8 bit nes games then yeah, you’d have played it and liked it.
Is it bad that I want a remake of this game?
What about the metal gear release on gog, is that the original MSX release or just another port of the mobile version
I'm rather looking forward to this analysis, aren't you?

nowadays, we have the MSX games on steam and other digital storefronts.
