It's coming out in Japan next week apparently. SNKP is trying to say it's a new game, but it's more like "new." The game is presented in 4:3 (there are edges to the screen) and there are a lot of parts from Metal Slug 7 from the DS.

Looks like the only new stuff are mini-games and ad hoc play. Anyone going for this?

Unless I hear there is some significant new content, I'm not. Especially as an import.

I think it it a remake of 7. Bosses look the same in the trailer. Probably like MSX:MS2, MSXX:MS7.

I haven't played 7 though, so I'm totally picking this up when I go to jpn in a couple weeks.

I can't believe this is 4:3.

Presumably because they couldn't be arsed to spend more time on the base DS code?

How lame. Just a cheap port/remix of a DS game..

You know, that's probably by biggest complaint, too. Even if it was just a redux like MEtal Slug X, if it was at least built to use the PSP right, I'd go for it

Why is everything you kill dropping coins? Is this Mario or Metal Slug? When did Metal Slug start having coins shoot out of everybody's ass?

Metal Slug 6 & 7 were both very crazy with it... like giving people higher scores would make them happy or something.

Hey, it's better than solid game design!

Or 16:9 on a system that... you know. Does that.
