Episode 55
Snake's Revenge is an awesome Metal Gear sequel for the NES! The first game was originally developed for the MSX2, a computer platform that was popular in Japan. It was moderately successful there, but became a massive international hit when it was ported to the NES, selling ONE MILLION copies!
Konami, the company that developed the original game, wanted to repeat that success. However, many people, including series creator Hideo Kojima, felt that too many corners had to be cut to make Metal Gear work on the NES. This time Konami would design a Metal Gear game that would be built for the NES from the very beginning.
The game they created, Snake's Revenge, is an incredible addition to the Metal Gear franchise. In addition to the traditional sneaking around buildings, this game also includes exciting set piece missions where you'll sink a ship and escape from a moving train!
So how did Snake's Revenge become the final Metal Gear game for the NES? In this week's episode we'll find out, then we'll dive deep into the gameplay where we'll learn:
* Where to find EVERY WEAPON! Don't miss any of them!
* How to get through EVERY mission, and area!
* The location of EVERY MISSING HOSTAGE! Rescue them all!
* The SECRETS of SNEAKING - Stay hidden, and don't alert the guards!
* Where to find every ITEM and AMMO REFILL!
* How to complete the frustrating SIDE SCROLLING LEVELS!
* The SECRET to getting past the INSTANT DEATH PITS!
* DATA on every WEAPON - from Punches to Plastic Explosives, you'll know how much damage they deal and how much ammo you can have at each Rank!
* How to get the game's HIGHEST STAR RANK, and information about the benefits of each level!
* DATA on ALL ITEMS! Rations, Boots, Armor Vests, and MORE!
* The best strategies for defeating EVERY BOSS... even METAL GEAR itself!
Thanks for watching!

I got to Big Boss but didn´t manage to defeat him back in the day... thanks a lot for this fantastic walk down memory lane

On a side note, the transceiver has a tracker mode where says to find things at a few points of the game. The most notable is the boat when it's sinking, once you're on the top deck it says where to go. Unlike the original Metal Gear, Snake's revenge isn't remotely as obtuse with how proceed once you get going. I believe it also works when you're looking for John Turner on the train, and where to go to use the smoke bomb at the end of the game. Usually if there's a timer, the game doesn't leave you high and dry.

One of my favorite game because I loved the original (Well NES version) of MG game, the game feel a bit different than the original one, and it took me many years to realized Kojima never had anything to do with this game. Also when playing MGS for the playstation and reading the synopsis, I was confused why none of the characters was mentioned from this game... later realized the MGS follow the MSX version instead. I got the Euro version and I find it weird back then why Snake was holding his fist up. Turn out to be the censorship... also they sneakily lowered Jennifers low cut cleavage art and instead we don't get to see her cleavage
