My arcade has a dedicated MS4 cab!!!

Michael Yagami · Dec 14, 2002

The last time they had anything to do with the Neo or SNK was 4 years ago and out of nowhere they grab a dedicated MS 4 cab. I went apeshit to say the least (my friends really didn't see what the big deal was). Amidst all the nifty new 3D games there was a bright 2D light called Metal Slug 4, and all was right with the world.

Its cool when your local arcade gets a neo game, but mine hasnt in 8 years!!

Shame metal slug 4 is the weakest in the series.

If your into metal slug, try Gun Force 2 in arcade(or mame)........its suspiciously similar.

They have arcades in West Virginia?

Seriously though, that's pretty cool. Metal Slug 4 has been out for nearly a year and I still haven't played it yet, so maybe I'll have to make a drive to Morgantown sometime soon.

I remember reading somewhere that they were put together by the same design team, can anyone confirm or deny this ???

Ahh there are no arcades in my home town!

Luckily there is a MS3 machine at my local pizza place, though i have stopped going there as of late. I think i might start going back.

My local arcade used to get all the Metal Slug games. They started with 1,then 2,then X,and finally 3. For some stupid reason they sold the cab and never got Slug 4. Which sucks. On the plus side though they still have Strikers 1945 Plus and Bust A Move.

Gunforce 2, In The Hunt and Metal Slug were designed by the same people.

Cool! I'd say that the Diversion's here at San Pedro has a devoted upright but it's just an old Killer Instinct cab with a huge MS4 marquee slapped on the top. Always cool to see devoted MVS cabs for a 1-slot.

I would have gone apeshit too. I would have asked to speak to the manager and then shaken his hand!

That's great..atleast you get to play one.
That's Great News..
The Bowling alley that I go to has a small vendor route Arcade in it.
There was a Dedicated Metal Slug 4 cab there but it wasn't being played at all by the kids that hang out there so they took it out the quick.

I wanted to play the machine so bad that I even planned to take pictures of it when I went there to Bowl on (the next) Sunday.
I had the Digital Camera all ready to go and the MS 4 was gone when I got there.
Replaced by a Tekken 4 machine...(FK)

That Dedicated Metal Slug 4 cab was a big beautiful machine.

Does anyone know of any Dedicated Metal Slug 4 machines in New Jersey?

I wanted to ask the guy who runs the small arcade but its more of a vendors route.
So next Sunday I'm gonna ask the manager of the Bowling alley about who owns the machines.

I never did because he's an A-hole..lol

I want ask the vendor where the Dedicated Metal Slug 4 is being used.

Metal Slug 4 is fun in the arcades , just takes lots of tokens to get far .

They usually put most of their cabs up for sale at the end of each year, so I might be the proud owner of that very MS4 cab this time next year.
