Neo Bomber Man, if you've been trying to get Metal Slug for the home cart system, I have a suggestion. Pick up an MVS cart (around $60), then a Samurai Shodown 2 home cart, send them to Jeff Kurtz, and he'll convert them for a VERY reasonable price. He even puts a nice Metal Slug sticker on the converted cart, and includes a Metal Slug insert that he designed, for whichever case you want (old style or new snap case). I did just that, and the Slug cart he created is beautiful!! And it works PERFECTLY!! Total cost for this work should be well under $200, depending on what you buy the two carts for to send him. It beats the hell out of paying $750 to $1000 on the official home cart. Plus, there is a homebrew Metal Slug manual coming out . . . I've seen a prototype of it, and I have to say its one of the BEST manuals I've EVER seen!!! Once that comes out (its in the printing process now), you can have a complete, great-looking, high quality MS1 cart, which although not original, is as GOOD or BETTER than what SNK produced!!!
