I'd like to see for myself how bad the slowdown is in Metal Slug 2. Emulators don't help because even without turning up the main chip Mhz they get rid of most or at least some of the slowdown. Does anybody know if there is video material from the game that would show it? Maybe somebody would even go through the trouble of capturing such a video. It would be very helpful for people who are interested in the game but hesitate because of all the slowdown talk.

It quite frankly makes the game nearly unplayable.
I was quite shocked when I first played the game on neo, because I'd never heard of the slowdown before.

When I first played it, it was tough, but eventually I got used to it.

The slowdown is an added bonus it allows you more time to see whats going on and IMO it isnt that bad anyway its allways blown out of all proportion like the neo cd load times ;)

I totally agree with Spike. I never paid it much attention and never thought it took away from the gameplay. If anything it gave me a chance to catch my breath and take in the great visuals. The best I could offer with a video is to record it to a VHS tape. Not sure how much good that would do. I'm sure there's plenty of slowdown, but it's not what sticks in my mind about the game.

I just got Metal Slug 2 for my cab and YES it does slow down but it is still a great game IMO. Well worth the 40$...

Its called Bullet Time. Most old games included this feature for a more dramatic effect.

the slow down isn't that bad at all. But I did think it was a little worse with 2 players playing.
