About 5 years ago I had a website up called "The Metal Slug Archive". It went down after about a year because the free server it was on no longer existed. I later lost interest in NeoGeo (I was only interested in emulation 5 years ago). Today I got my first piece of MVS hardware my 1 slot motherboard. Seeing as I'm very interested in NeoGeo yet again (for hardware only related stuff this time) I would once again like to launch the Metal Slug Archive.

I have http://www.metal-slug.net all set up and ready to start coding. There is a staging server and publishing script in place on my conpany's linux box. I also have a base design created by one of my graphic designers. I most likely do not need help coding, however i need help gathering info, and copy writing text for the site.

PM/ Reply/ Email if interested in helping.

Thanks!

There is already a site dedicated to the metal slug series below. Although it is quite comprehensive, I'm not a big fan of it and I find it poorly organized. I could care less about the cell phone games and hentai fan-art.

I would rather there be more of a focus on the AES/MVS/CD titles (maybe including ports true to the originals) and the actual gameplay. Such as a list of all recaptured prisoner locations, bonus items, secrets, strategies, etc. There are and have been several sites on specific things, but nothing vast that covers the whole series. And gamefaqs is more trouble than it's worth. Kernow, a member here, compiled a list of Metal Slug 3 secrets with the help of others on the forums and it has 30 or so bonus item locations with pictures. Although it has been taken off line, he sent me a copy and probably would gladly let you host it if you were to ask him.

I'm not really sure what you want to do with the site, but I might be able to help out.
