Metal Gear NES Advertisement

I remember when this ad was first printed. I couldn't wait to get this game. So many cool weapons and possibilities. But would it be as fun to play as they made it seem? Yeah, it was! They sure don't make them like this anymore.

I love how they supply an "Iron Glove" to explain the fact that you can smash walls with your bare knuckles.

Today they illustrate things with the same content present inside the game itself but in 80's and early 90's the games advertisements, covers, user's guides etc was illustrated by drawings that do not existed inside the game itself. I remember of me choosing games by the cover (as we had no source of information at that time).

One of this games with cool covers was this one:

I cant forget the day I've buy it.

too bad that I do not have it anymore :(

It was always cool to see the illustrations people made for games, as those illustrations were basically the only way to tell what you were playing back then. Especially the bad ones. Those were probably the best, in my opinion.

Also, they misspelled Beretta.
