Even in its original MSX form, the first Metal Gear was still underwhelming compared to its sequels. It was basically Zelda 1 in a military setting and the stealth was rudimentary at best. The NES version was a downgraded version of a game that was already pretty average to begin with.

Metal Gear 2: Solid Snake was when the series started showing signs of being great.

I actually dislike wearing T-shirts. For about the last ten years, I wear mostly buttoned-up shirts (I'm hipster garbage, I know). BUT! My friend was lovely enough to screen print me a Metal Gear MSX shirt that I'll wear occasionally. And it's borderline retro, but a shirt of the entire Street Fighter III: Third Strike cast too. They always gets plenty of complements. But then again, I work at a place filled with weirdos that get the shirts.

Does a complete english version exist anywhere for the original Metal Gear? I've read that the NES version negatively changes a lot of the game and I wanted to get the "real" experience.
