Well, if what is shown in the games truly matters. Then we should discuss how in the mission briefing for Twin Snakes, it shows Snake with 100% clear as day blonde hair. Which lines up perfectly with Shinkawas statement on how Snake could've just chopped and dyed his hair up a lil'.

Now, of course you'll have to pay special attention to how I phrased it as "could've" in regards to cutting his hair and dying it. Considering that we are all unaware of how Snake made this transition, but the obvious most reasonable explenation for this would be that he pretty much did cut it and dye it.

And yes, they didn't mention anything about Snake doing that to his hair. But knowing Kojima, he most likely left it out on accident considering the amount of plot holes that are already in this series. Even as you stated/corrected earlier in the thread in regards to Kojima speaking of errors in the plot, " there might be inconsitencies". But you forget that "might" represents a 50/50 chance in regards to however it is being used. So theres still the possibility of Snake making an appearance.

Now, I'm not saying I'm right. This is just my interpretation of what could be in the PP, because Solid Snake's the fucking man and should be in the game. but for now jus got to sit back an relax an enjoy the show yknow'?

That's the original games briefing, not the Twin Snakes briefing which does show him with brown hair, and no, the original games briefing does not show him with "100% clear as day blond hair." it shows him with white hair, red skin and a black hole for a crotch and a submarine having red walls when it was previously shown to not have red walls. So if those walls aren't really red, his skin isn't really red and his crotch isn't really a black hole, then how in the hell is his hair color there really blond when they don't show the real colors of anything? The briefing is not credible evidence.

No, the obvious and most reasonable explanation is that his hair was brown and the briefing didn't show his natural hair color and all he did was cut it, since a pair of scissors is all he asked for, if they were going to go out of their way to make him ask for a pair of scissors, why not add in him asking for hair dye as well if that's what happened? There's no mention of hair dye, his hair color in MG1 and 2 was brown, his hair color during MGS1 and 2 is brown, so there's no credible evidence that suggests he dyed his hair or that his natural hair color has been anything but brown from day one.

And I say again, Shinkawa's comment means nothing, he's referring to concept ideas, as in the ideas they were originally going to go for that ended up being shelved in favor of the final design.

Why should Solid Snake be in the game? Because you think he should? That's not how things work and if MGS4 has taught Kojima anything, it's that putting characters in just for the sake of having them there or because the fans want them there is not a good idea. If Kojima doesn't want Solid Snake in the game, he won't be in the game.
