** Decoy Octopus was supposed to have a boss fight, but it was scrapped due to technical hardware limitations on of the Playstation hardware UsefulNotes/PlayStation, resulting in the concept for the fight being impossible to achieve. Aspects of the fight were used in ''[[VideoGame/MetalGearSolid4GunsofthePatriots Metal ''VideoGame/{{Metal Gear Solid 4]]'' 4|GunsOfThePatriots}}'' in the Laughing Octopus fight.
** Kojima once thought of the idea where if you died once, ''[[FinalDeath the game disc would stop working]]''.
** Gray Fox wasn't even originally going to be in the game. The Cyborg Ninja was a completely unrelated sketch Shinkawa had drawn in his spare time. When Kojima first saw the drawing, he was so impressed by the design that he felt it would be a waste to not use it in the final product, leading him to rewrite the script and giving Fox a prominent role in the story.
** The ability to hide bodies in lockers was planned for this game, but technical limitations meant it had to wait until ''VideoGame/MetalGearSolid2SonsOfLiberty''. Another feature that had to wait another game to be realized was Solid Snake's bandana tails - files can be found within the game's data that they were intended to be present and animated here, but once again technical limitations forced it to be cut.
