Wii Software \ Metal Gear Solid for Wii FTW?

From playing Zelda, it's quite easy to switch between close combat and combat with ranged weapons and using the Wiimote to aim is fun and easy (unless there's tonnes of sunlight coming in through the window; that screws it all up). The main gripe I had with MGS games was that it was really hard to aim with the analog stick and I'd often have to just spam a machine gun or something to kill somebody, and when I used tranquilisers, I'd often miss and I might gain the attention of the guard who would then run up and kill me or something.

With Snake already on the Wii in SSBB, do you think a true Metal Gear Solid game would ever make its way to the Wii? Maybe MGS Portable Ops could be ported to the Wii due to so many MGS fans not having a PSP.

What options would Kojima Productions have for an MGS game? Since Snake apparently has to die in MGS4, that could mean the end of the Metal Gear Solid series, but not the end of the Metal Gear series.

Hey wait... what about remakes of Metal Gear 1 and 2?

I would love to see Metal Gear on the Wii. I remember playing it on the PSone. Great game.

I would not rule a Metal Gear Solid game out for Wii. But it will either be a remake like Winnie said (similar to MGS: The Twin Snakes on GC) or be a new game, but not a continuation of the Playstation series.

Metal Gear Solid: Portable Ops on Wii anybody? I'm a big MGS fan, but I can't afford a PSP, especially after buying a Wii. A lot of MGS fans will get Wiis to play as Snake in SSBB I'm assuming, so the game would sell well...

The Wii won't have any problem running the Subsistence engine. It's more powerful than the PS2 already, isn't it?

Just found this, don't know if its already been posted.


"This next one is about GamePro Magazine's interview with Hideo Kojima. Actually, we've already covered this before but we feel like we didn't give enough emphasis on the little but crucial parts of the interview. Kojima is the creator of Metal Gear Solid and the latest installment of the series is slated for the PS3.

Now, in case some of you are not aware, Kojima has been pondering on making an MGS for the Wii. He mentioned that he will give it some serious thought once the MGS 4 has been released. These are his exact words:

"Wii! Yes, I want to do it. I'm saying this everyday. But first, I have to face this giant that is called Metal Gear Solid 4, so until I'm finished with that, I can't do anything. We're not the ones who are saying we want HD. I'm not interested, myself, about HD at all."

I don't know if it's just me but this sounds good news to all Wii fans. We don't have to discuss about the Wiimote at this point because we all know how that works in a game anyway. But I believe that there last statement there is quite important. With HD and even 4D out of the way, we can almost smell some MGS action coming to Wii. Do you agree?"

Great link dark_fool! I would definitely hope for some MGS on the Wii, there are positive signs that it will happen, with Kojima lending Solid Snake to be in Super Smash Bros Brawl.

I really hope it is an original title, and makes full use of the Wii controls. I know they can do it!

playing a gamecube game on the wii doesnt add any of the standard wii stuff (motion controls) it just plays like a normal gamecube game

And I had no problem with it! MGS4 and MGS3 tie for my favourite in the series and are some of my favourite games. I think that the freshness of the plot in each game keeps the balance between gameplay and exposition.

For any other game I would say that the cutscenes are too long, but I feel they are as long as necessary to explain such a multilayered plot. At no point did I feel that any of the cutscenes in MGS4 were added just as an afterthought, though I have felt that way for many other games (Gears of War, Far Cry, Crysis, Splinter Cell, Tomb Raider series for example) with weaker plots. In those games I was mashing every button I could to try to skip another generic guy-gets-shot/big-baddie-appears scene.

Well, that's a good point you make. I always skip FMV scenes, wherever possible.

I always skip after I've seen it (maybe I'm redoing a level or replaying the game or something), so I appreciate the ability to skip a cutscene, and get incredibly wroth when I can't do it.
