Meanwhile, filmmaker Ryuhei Kitamura, who is known for such films as "Aragami" and "Azumi", directed the game's storytelling demo sequences and oversaw all motion capture work. As a result, players are sure to be amazed by the game's strong movie-like quality.

"I am very happy to see the original METAL GEAR SOLID� game on a Nintendo console."

"Through the collaboration with film director Mr. Ryuhei Kitamura and the skilled staff at Silicon Knights, I hope everyone enjoys this new version, reborn with new talent on a new platform," he added.
