    Many reviewers will heavily criticize this game for not delivering but I still found it to be very enjoyable.
    I apologize for the grinding and card switching, tried to minimize it as much as I could.
    There is also a very small 22 second pause @ 09:40, I am sorry but was temporarily distracted in an unavoidable situation.
    Otherwise, this longplay came out great and I hope you all enjoy it. -

    Ironically, despite all the grief that Snake's Revenge gets, I'm surprised to know that Hideo Kojima himself doesn't actually hate it. Sure, he said that it's not how he envisioned a Metal Gear sequel, and that it partially inspired him to make a true sequel, but he respects it for what it is, even though it was made without his involvement.

    While I feel that this fell short of the original Metal Gear (MSX2), it could be nearly as good with a few changes:
    1. Removal of sidescrolling sections - I can see what they were trying to do here, but they're designed poorly for the most part. It was the first time that sidescrolling stealth had been tried and it shows. Replace them with a single transition room. Alternatively improve them.
    2. Re-balance bosses - First boss should do less damage, as should fake John Turner. Tank should give a warning before it starts to move. Checkpoint just before all bosses.
    3. Searchlights at the beginning do not appear where you enter the screen. Removal of flying guards in first few screens.
    4. Make the platforming sections (where you move between floating platforms) easier. Instant death isn't fun.
    5. Cable car guards give more warning for when they look out the window.
    6. Doors open automatically if you have the correct card (no need to go into menu to select card). Also a problem in Metal Gear 1.
    7. Replace section where you cause multiple alerts by blowing up walls with section where you blow up one wall and cause a continuous alert you must fight through (similar to Metal Gear 1).
    It would be great if a hack that remedied these issues was made.

    I remember playing through MG1 and loving it since the concept was so different from games such as Contra or Commando, then realizing there are no other games like it, no military style rpg'ish games, but then Snake's Revenge came out! I was so excited I couldn't believe it and as I played through it, it felt superior in every way, more weapons and equipment, the people you talked to actually had faces, user friendly radio, a ton more of locations, the music did not dissapoint and MG was actually in the game!! so why all the "non-canon", negative comments is beyond me, I played solid snake 2 on msx a while back ago and found it was a good story but I enjoyed playing this one a bit more.

    I find it funny that as much as people shit on Snake's Revenge I can't help but notice similarities between this game and Kojima's. A returning character from the first game, female spy contact, Big Boss survives and comes back as the antagonist and other little nitpicks. Since Kojima states that this game inspired him to make his own sequel I wonder that some of the major plot elements seem to be lifted beat for beat.

    Just beat this. What a kool game. Sure, it has its problems, like instant deaths, unnecessary keycard hassling, ridiculously small item / weapon pickups etc, but overall I did still like it. Somehow I feel like the game is pretty surreal for an 8-bit game, it has an actual story and you're constantly picking up new gear that needs to be used in relevant situations. It's something totally opposite to the normal action games of the era, where you just shoot shoot shoot everything in sight and that's it.
    Also, the end sequence was rad as fuck. Suddenly, Metal Gear 2 is operational, the countdown begins and you're shitting your pants while trying to find the death machine as fast as possible. Finally, you reach the launch room, and start firing missiles through the narrow passage while the clock is mercilessly ticking away. What a perfect, frantic climax to the slowly built-up story.
    Not to mention the music, which is simply awesometastic. #8bitftw

    As a child I considered Snake's Revenge to be a worthy successor to the original Metal Gear game! In fact, I thought that Snake's Revenge was a superior game in every way! Why fans of the series tend to treat Snake's Revenge like a vastly inferior game that should never be mentioned is anyone's guess.
    Both the first and the second Metal Gear games were excellent in my opinion! But Snake's Revenge surpass the original by taking it to a whole new level adding more soundtracks, more variety in its environments, longer gameplay length, more collectible items, more enemies, more explosions, etc. Snake's Revenge overall is a much better game then the original hands down.

    • @amerk6601
      @amerk6601 10 лет назад +6

      Definitely this. As a kid, I had no idea about all the variations of games that existed, or that we were given what was ultimately not a true sequel to the first MG game, or that MG1 was a far inferior mess compared to the original released on the MSX (had never heard of MSX or Famicom at that time).
      What I did know was that MG1 and Snake's Revenge had something very few games had at that time, and that was an in depth story (which was pretty deep for the console it was made on during that era). And as much as I really enjoyed putting in the hours to MG1, I always felt that Snake's Revenge was a far superior sequel and did so much more.
      Fast forward several years to the first MGS game, and the first time I realized that the NA versions of MG1 and Snake's Revenge were either inferior or not cannon. We missed out, I'll agree with that, as it would have been nice to have the more powerful version of MG1 and Solid Snake, but I still enjoy Snake's Revenge for what it has to offer.
      Then again, I've always been fond of the black sheep of games: Castlevania II, Zelda II, SMB II, and of course, Snake's Revenge, mainly because these games tried so hard to be different.

      +Mr. Youngzen69: Most of the hatred of Snake's Revenge comes from angry nerds that didn't get to play Metal Gear 2: Solid Snake until much later, either through emulation or through the official release of the game outside of Japan bundled with Metal Gear Solid 3: Subsistence, not to mention that Hideo Kojima had nothing to do with it.
      If I was a Konami executive, I would have lobbied for an updated remake of SR for the Game Boy Advance during the early 2000s. The updated version would have had more familiar MG elements like ducking, crawling, figuring out difficult puzzles, a revised and more refined storyline, radar, more and better radio assistance, and absolutely no side-scrolling areas. As a bonus, the game would also have had an "Original Mode," which would simply have been the original 1990 game untouched for the purists out there. I would also ask for Kojima-san's blessing, if not ask him to be a producer of the game as well.

      I think most realize by now that Snake's Revenge was not the official sequel, but it doesn't make it any less entertaining. It's still one of my all time favorite NES games, one of the first where I got to watch a prinary character die as part of the story, and still way better than the abominal NES version of Metal Gear we all got. In my book, that makes Snake's Revenge a decent success.

    I think the amount of hatred and lies that Snake's Revenge gets because Hideo Kojima had nothing to do with it is criminal. While I know that it's non-canon, hard as fuck, and some things about the game could have been done better, I still like it. I do like the fact that you get to change locations a lot throughout this game compared to being stuck on isolated fortresses in the canon MG games made up to MGS2. I would dare say I had an easier time playing this than I ever had playing NES MG1.

    • @LUCKO2022
      @LUCKO2022 9 лет назад +6

      I agree. Hell Kojima himself has said on numerous occasions that it was a good game and that it was faithful to the Metal Gear concept. Yet, people still shit on this game because it's not done by Kojima, of course the only good Metal Gear games are done by Kojima so Portable Ops is out as well because Kojima was busy with MGS 4 at the time. It pisses me the fuck off.
      I have had this game since it was new, just like the NES Metal Gear. These 2 games made me a Metal Gear fan to begin with.
      It doesn't deserve the hate that it gets. Snake's Revenge is way better than Metal Gear on the NES or even the MSX2 version in my opinion.

    • @Loader2K1
      @Loader2K1 9 лет назад +2

      I'm actually shocked to hear that somebody out there thinks Snake's Revenge is better than even the original MSX version of Metal Gear. Most MG fans would call that sacrilege, but to each his/her own.
      If it were up to me, SR would have gotten an updated re-release on the Game Boy Advance and/or DS in the 2000s.

      Good because I am not like every MG fan. Most of the fanbase never even came along until MGS at earliest. I can at least say I was following it much,much earlier. I am also not prudish either. Snake's Revenge despite some of it's faults IS better than the original Metal Gear. The AI is far superior for starers, the gameplay is more balanced in my opinion as well. But again this is opinion.
      Do I think Snake's Revenge can hold a candle to the real sequel, fuck no not even close. I am surprised that never got released here for some odd reason despite Metal Gear and Snake's Revenge doing quite well in sales back in those days. It would have been a no brainer but hey what can you do.

    • @Loader2K1
      @Loader2K1 9 лет назад +1

      +CF-105 Games: I have to admit that I didn't really become a fan of the Metal Gear franchise myself until Metal Gear Solid was released on the PlayStation back in 1998. I played the original MG1 on NES when I was very young, but I didn't understand the game back then. It didn't help that I played it around some asshole kids who wouldn't help me with the game at the time, but that's another story. At the time, I thought playing as a soldier man with no weapons whatsoever save your fists while being in a jungle with little to no help was a dumb idea. However, MGS1 came out and changed all that for me. After enjoying the fuck out of MGS1, I decided to give NES MG1 a second chance and Snake's Revenge a chance. As far as SR is concerned, I seriously don't get where all the lies come from. "Snake's Revenge wasn't even made by Konami!" "All you do in the game is run 'n gun!" Completely false.
      One reason I can think of MG2: Solid Snake not getting a release outside of Japan (at least in the early to mid-'90s) was possibly because the game itself was very adult-oriented, and it was made at a time when the video game industry was still considered a market for grade-school children. Another possibility is that maybe Konami thought that even though NES MG1 and SR were more profitable in North America, they weren't overnight successes like some of their other series at the time, like Contra, Castlevania, and their licensed Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles games. I think MG2: SS is on higher plane of existence than SR myself, but I don't think SR is that terrible of a game.

      But Snake's Revenge is made by Konami. Ultra Games was a division of Konami created to get around the 5 game per year rule Nintendo had set up.
      Data East did it with Ocean, Acclaim did it with LJN.
      It was common practice in those days.

    Well, the ending was disappointing, but it's still one of my favorite games from back on the NES. Even now I'm surprised at the amount of detail that went into this game. The music, the effects, graphics, story, and gameplay are at the high end of the 8-bit spectrum, and really pushed the NES to its limits.

    This is the game that made Hideo Kojima make a sequel if remember correctly as originally it was just gonna be the 1987 Msx Metal Gear . Until Konami made this death trap to the series behind kojima's back. Glad this happened cause in a way if Snake's revenge wasnt made then chances are we Wouldn't have the Metal Gear Solid series we know and love today so guess we should be thanking this game for giving the creator motivation of metal Gear 2 :solid snake and ongoing metal Gear Solid 5 tpp.

      I consider Metal Gear 2 Solid Snake his best work, mainly due to revolutionary idea of "sound that makes guards go, hmmm what was that?" Since that was not in video game stealth games before this one, sure in Castle Wolfenstein they could go full alert mode if they heard gunshot. But not the case of "suspicion type of checking stuff out" just added new level of tensions to stealth genre.
