Metal Gear Solid remake quotes were mistranslated, but Kojima still keen on project
Metal Gear Solid remake rumours were flying wild this week, after series creator Hideo Kojima allegedly said that he'd love to see a third-party studio re-create the game in FOX Engine. Well, he has now said that this was a mistranslation on his part, but he's actually keen on the idea. Let the rumours commence.
The quotes in question stemmed from this E3 2013 roundtable, in which Kojima supposedly said he would like to see an eternal studio remake his PSone classic.
Kojima clarified his stance on Twitter this morning this morning:
Regarding the rumor from yesterday, checked the data recording of the actual interview. It was mistranslated from our side.

I answered "You (the journalist) wanted me to do MGS2 on Fox Engine but I cannot do. I wish if only someone could make MGS1 on Fox Engine."

However, Chris mistranlated as "Personally he would like have MGS1 on Fox Engine, so he try to find someone right now to do that." NOOOOO!!!

The journalist wasn't wrong. We are deeply sorry for the misinterpretation on our side.

Well, if there's some creator or team in this world who has love and passion to remake "MGS1", I would love to ask for it.
