So basically they were lazy. This is disappointing

I have the HD collection on Xbox digital, I don’t really see the point of buying on Switch just for a lazy version of MGS1
Will probably pick it up on Steam for mods and preservation, I guess

30fps for games is game changing when you played these games in 60fps. It is unplayable .

Who could’ve ever predicted that Konami would take the cheapest route!? It’ll probably still sell a decent number of copies. Remember those GTA remasters?

Is good to spread the word of this lazy port fake physical for the Switch , so people can vote with their wallets and not buy it, the only language Konami seems to understand

switch left behind again

Konami cheaping out? The company that dumped series creator Hideo Kojima and quit video games for a lucrative career in pachinko?
A company now trying to make money by outsourcing it’s old games to other studios because they changed their mind?
They dumped old creators and teams trying to find easier ways to make money and now they want to cash back in on those old games with completely different people.
~~I’m not surprised this is a poorly optimized cash grab.~~
Edit: Hm, sounds like these issues are mostly from the Switch version.

So, what FPS did the games run originally?

Meh I’ll just pay some asshole on ebay some money for the mgs hd collection for the vita.
rather give money to resellers than to Konami.

Well shit…..

Thats a shame. I really wanted to buy this for the switch. I may not get it at all now. Is it at all possible to fix this with a future patch? I’d like some hope

Konami hates Kojima and did a shitty port as a middle finger to the fans.

Konami be like: your digital only copy of Metal Gear Solid 3 will run slightly better on Switch than 3DS, now gimme 60 bucks
SoftCatMonster
Yeah, this isn’t exactly a thrill.

There’s no reason the Switch should be running this at the same framerate as Tears of the Kingdom.

Didn’t Konami straight up say this was the case months ago. Not condoning it but for once they were honest I think

Played us like a damn fiddle.

It’s an injustice to the MGS series. They put more effort into a video for a pachinko machine than the actual games.

I really want to play this….,.

It fucking sucks because all 3 MGS games are masterpieces but once again Konami straight up suck at making good decisions.
staveware
They could have gotten phantom pain running at 60 on switch. This is just embarrassing.

Bummer. Guess I won’t be selling my PS3.

People. Please. Stop settling for 30fps. SCREAM for 60. Or better! 60 should be bare minimum.
DushFernando92
What a shame! Gonna pass this lazy port..

Daily reminder that MGS2 HD on Vita ran at 60fps quite a lot of the time.
doomSdayFPS
I expect nothing less from Konami.

A “remaster” of games from two decades ago, somehow, with an even worse framerate.
60$ ??????
Why are these companies still around?

Upscaled 720p docked. Wow, it just gets worse. It’s 60fps in HD on the god damn Xbox 360
