Must say, I am not a big fan of Sony. It was produced by NEC as far as I know, but not 100% sure.

I think this is the American version.

Yes, this is Metal Gear, first made for MSX2.

I think the MSX was a "standard" of some kind, with hardware manufacturers each taking it and making their own MSX hardware around it.
