I'm a little confused, could you elaborate?
Lets Gekiga In said:I also heard SCEA is the reason why Rockman Complete Works didn't come over here according to MMHP (http://www.ibis-research.com/mm) If that really is true, that really pisses me off.
Are you talking about the pending Mega Man collection?
I hope not.

If this is actually true, I'd love to see Playmore pull a "Working Designs" (when they stopped putting out Saturn games after "mistreatment") and stop publishing games for the PS2 in the U.S.
But that would not be a good idea on their part for obvious reasons.
Oh well, stuff like this is the reason I imported MS3 over the summer. :P

Wow, with the incredible amount of SHITTY games the PS2 gets in a year, they hesitate to release MS3? Bastards... 
Does anybody know how well MS1 and MSX for PSX in USA, if they were released? MSX was released here in Europe for sure...

@ the roker
concept approval= a piblisher tries to get a console maker to sign off on a title and "bless" it so they can publish it.
The risk it all taken by the publisher, not sony, so sony is arrogant about this.
as for m3 it will eventually get pushed out, but expcet some cg cinemas or the like to pass sony's bar.
how do i know this? ben herman and I are buds.

Tis true, but many of my friends won't exactly run out to purchase an import PS2/game or mod their console. OR purchase a Home Cart system or get some kind of arcade/supergun setup.
Regardless, if you at least want to enjoy many of the 2D games on a Sony console, you're gonna have to import anyways... *shrugs* Still bullshit tho, these companies need to cut this whole game rejection process: the fact that someone get's paid to do so pisses me off even more.

don´t blah blah my sony hate posts
and to think was nintendo to release the beast by backing up their deal with sony to make a stupid cdrom attachment to the SNES
Even thought SNK never made US versions of some games, their systems are region free, you could still play J releases in US systems.
I just hate sony police against game play, replay value and 2D games.

If the rumor is true, that sucks, but I'll just end up getting the Jap version then.

Because some of us wanted to support SNK here in america on a large brand name console.
Others of us have it in MVS form and have to stand at an arcade cabinet to play it and would occasionally like to sit on a nice comfy couch.
Some of us have both of those reasons.

i understand everybody's gripe, but you are dealing with sony a bunch of fucking asshole's
Update: SNK/Playmore has released the following statement (source: IGN-PS2)...
"Published reports regarding Metal Slug not coming stateside are incorrect. SNK is still in development to publish the game for PlayStation 2, contingent on Sony's approval process. Sony often asks for changes to a product before giving approval, and it is SNK's intention to work with Sony to make sure this product can come out for the PS2. It's unfortunate that certain gaming sites make stories out of non-news, without ever bothering to fact check."
Note that Sony may still decide to reject the game even after the changes have been made but at least SNK/Playmore is trying their damndest to get it out here.
