Anyone else want one of the best Gameboy Color games released on the E-Shop?

No.

Not until they release Metal Gear on NES first, which Japan already has.

This ^

Also Japan has the MSX2 version I'm pretty sure, not the NES one. We already have the fully translated MSX version on MGS3: Subsistence and the two releases of the MGS HD Collection, along with the true MG2: Solid Snake. The NES version would be... ack.

I'd tranquilize a man in the back of the head just to get this game on the eShop.

The NES game isn't that bad. Though the MSX is better, the NES version is all they can release in America.

It's Metal Gear II on the NES that's bad.

They're both bad. No point in wanting an incredibly inferior version of a game on the eShop.

I would like to have the GBC Metal Gear Solid game on the eShop. Been meaning to get it off eBay for a while now, but the price is going up.

This game is taking forever to be released! When it does come out it will surpass even Link's Awakening as the best VC game onthe 3ds.

PS
NES Metal Gear sucks like Pacman for the Atari 2600.

It isn't. I honestly perfer it more than the recent releases going on now, Ghost Babel may be better, but I can still like the NES version more. It's the same thing with Final fantasy II FC.

There was an official English MSX (European) version, but since few people in America have heard of the MSX, they wouldn't. :(

Snake's Revenge isn't Metal Gear II, though I hear Kojima approves of it, even though he wasn't responsible for it.

Actually Kojima didn't approve of Snake's Revenge which is why he made his own Metal Gear ll. Too bad it wasn't popular even in Japan.

What I had heard makes it sound like he didn't even play Snake's Revenge until after it was out.

Your opinion is bad and you should feel bad.

But seriously, Ghost Babel is great, unlike MG for the NES. I'd buy it for the VR Missions alone.

'Cause he didn't. Kojima wasn't involved with Snake's Revenge in any way.

First off: Ghost Bable is not a version of Metal Gear.
Second of all, have you really played Ghost Babel?
Third of all, the NES version of MG may be crap, but I think you're being harsh comparing it the completely broken, unplayable mess that is FF2 FC. :P

Wasn't Ghost Babel one of the most well-received Gameboy games... ever?
I'm sure they'll add it soon. :D
