Metal Gear 1 – Big Boss Telling Solid Snake to Shut Down the Console
Hideo Kojima was always experimenting, and has always been trying to get into the player’s head. There’s no better proof of this than the first game he lead, the original Metal Gear on the MSX, and later NES.
Just like in Metal Gear Solid 2, your superior, Big Boss himself in this case, would start to call you with random messages towards the end of the game. He’d tell you that your mission was over and that it was time to head home. He’s also tell you that it was time to stop playing the game and specifically tells you to turn off your MSX (even in the NES version).
