WALL, NJ. – September 22, 2006 – SNK PLAYMORE USA CORPORATION, the US publishing arm of the SNK PLAYMORE CORPORATION, announced today that they will add the latest game in the series, METAL SLUG 6, to METAL SLUG ANTHOLOGY for the Nintendo Wii™ and the PSP® (PlayStation®Portable) system.

METAL SLUG 6 was released in the arcades earlier this year and expands the cast of playable characters by two. In addition to the METAL SLUG regulars – Marco Rossi, Tarma Roving, Eri Kasamoto, and Fio Germi, METAL SLUG 6 includes Ralf Jones and Clark Steel of IKARI WARRIORS .The METAL SLUG 6 storyline returns to the Rebel-Martian alliance featured in Metal Slugs 2, X, and 3, but now players have to team up with the Rebels and Martians to defeat an even greater threat.

METAL SLUG ANTHOLOGY will ship in November 2006.

I just hope it makes the Wii launch.

Good news! I will be a happy camper if this is a launch title, or shortly after.

 

[Gameoz]

Even if they delay it to put MS6 in there, I would be fine with that. I would rather wait and have it than not at all.

Ditto, because I'm probably never going to get to play MS6 any other way.

Looks like I'll be picking up a Wii for sure now.

Quoted once again for truth. The only question posed to me now is whether to get the Wii or the PSP version.

 

[Timorous Scott]

Both?

Fuckin Badass!

Yet another Wii game I plan on buying right away. Should go great with the gamepad.
