Shadow Moses Island
From the Metal Gear Wiki
Shadow Moses was an island south-west of Alaska in the Bering sea off the Fox Islands. It became involved in the Shadow Moses incident. It was the location of a Nuclear Disposal Facility, and was also where ArmsTech and DARPA collaborated on the construction of Metal Gear REX. The facility was then taken over by renegade members of FOXHOUND leading the GENOME Army.
In Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots, Snake will return to Shadow Moses in some capacity, which is unknown at the present time. It seems like Shadow Moses will serve as the setting for the battle between Metal Gear REX, piloted by Solid Snake, and Metal Gear RAY, piloted by Liquid Ocelot.

[edit] Super Smash Bros. Brawl
Shadow Moses Island, specifically the Helipad area, also appears in the Nintendo themed fighter, Super Smash Bros. Brawl. When fifteen battles have been fought on this stage, Solid Snake will become a playable character.
During battle, a searchlight will hover over the walls of the battlefield; if it spots a character, a red "!" will appear over their heads, along with the trademark alert noise. The two searchlight towers, however, can be destroyed if attacked long enough, although they will restore themselves after a short period of time. Occasionally, Metal Gear REX, Metal Gear RAY, or two Metal Gear Gekkou will appear in the background, though not affecting the fighters. Snake can also use his codec on this stage to contact Colonel Campbell, Mei Ling, and Otacon (and on one occasion, Slippy Toad from Star Fox) and gain intel regarding his opponents. This is the only stage in Super Smash Bros. Brawl besides custom stages that can utilize the Metal Gear Solid music tracks.
