Topic: If MSX Support Were To Come Out Of Japan, What Games Would You Like To See?

Metal Gear and Space Manbow for me. They would have to translate Metal Gear though or else you wouldn't know what to do. I would pay 1000 points for it though because that's how good it is. Space Manbow would need no changes whatsoever.

Metal Gear got translated back in the day. Metal Gear 2 is the one that would need a translation.

@Adamant: Really? Didn't know that. Was the translation any good? I've only played a fan-translated version before.

Quite a few, such as the Metal Gear series, Space Manbow, and King Valley 2.

Same thing cheetah, Metal Gear and Space Manbow.
I bet the MSX Metal Gear is way better than the NES Metal Gear.

Oh it is. After playing the MSX version, you'll realize how craptacular the NES version really is.

No, it was awful. Worse than the NES one, believe it or not (you know you're not on a ship to quality archipelago when one of your weapons is named "Land Main"), and a number of codec calls were simply axed from the game for no apparent reason (most being Big Boss' item description if you call him in a room you find a new item, usually hinting to its purpose). This is why someone saw a need for a fan translation in the first place.

At least it's playable though, right? I'd add Quarth to the list, got it yesterday and it's ace!

After watching the Gametrailers retrospective on Metal Gear, that would clearly be my choice. I would also pick up Castlevania just for collection purposes.

Oh, yes, it's a great game. The Metal Gear series didn't start to become dialogue-heavy until MG2, and the first game barely had a plot in the first place, so the translation being bad won't get in the way of your enjoyment.
