Game Description:
Metal Gear Solid Mobile is a Action-Adventure/Stealth video game published by Konami and developed by Ideaworks Game Studio released on 2008 for .
This is the mobile phone game Metal Gear Solid Mobile made for Nokia phones through the N-Gage service released back in 2008 by Konami. Konami kinda shadow dropped this game without much advertising and fanfare and it went mostly unnoticed. The game was in trouble of becoming lost media for years until someone was able to rip the game off of an old Nokia phone they found that had the game installed. The game is not a remake but is an original story taking place between MGS1 and 2. Telling the events of what Snake and Otacon were doing with their organization Philanthropy before the events of the 2nd game. It looks and plays similar to the first game. Unfortunately it's a pretty short game, but Metal Gear fans will appreciate it for the lore and the fact most people probably haven't played it. (or even knew it existed) This game uses the Symbian OS mobile phone emulator EKA2L1 and here's how to get the game running with it:
- Launch eka2l1_qt.exe and make sure the data path was recognized (it should do it automatically) also make sure the two defaultbank .hsb and .sf2 files are recognized too from the resources folder (also done automatically by the emu too)
- Controls can be configured in the Control tab in settings. xbox is the profile I created for the controls mentioned below and default is for when using keyboard (this plays best using a controller)
- To find and start the game click the Games icon with the lowercase n and press start twice when Metal Gear Solid Mobile shows and the game will start
- Press ctrl+f for fullscreen (the game looks a lot better in fullscreen imo)
- To disable the dot matrix filter uncheck "Use shader for upscaling" in the settings for the emulator
