I was curious on trying the game out for years being this rare & niche game that was only released in Japan but thanks to some translators I managed to try it out. Metal Slader Glory pushed the Famicom to its absolute limit with its visuals & animation. I was impressed to see what the system can do & that's thanks to HAL Laboratory (the Kirby devs), Satoru Iwata with his programming skills & Yoshimiru Hoshi the creator of the game with his artwork.

It's a visual novel game which I do enjoy from time to time. The story is like your standard mecha show but with elements of a horror flick. The main characters are pretty average with some pervy moments with the main female lead always commenting how the male lead is a perv for just talking to any other women. The male lead is also a bit pervy too. Interacting with things can be tedious as you have to repeat a lot of the same actions for the story to progress & they was one part of the game I got stuck on as well as while visually impressive a lot of the rooms looked very familiar. I admit I had to look up a guide for that part. I glad I got to experience it though I don't think its a must play. They was also a director's cut version for the Super Famicom however that does not currently have an English translation.
