While I guess theres no other way you could make it portable,
playing slug using pad controls just won't be the same.

You're right... I will always prefer the AES old style joystick!!

But for a portable system, the PSP buttons are no problem.
My only fear, is that I break the "x" button from all the pounding it gets!!

... and it's a lot easier/funner to play Metal Slug on the PSP than on the Neo Pocket.

BIGGER screen, BADDER sound, and BETTER buttons!!

I can't wait to get the PSP Anthology Collection with all the Slugs!!
Co-op play between 2 linked PSP's is going to be awesome!

I've pre-ordered mine for $37.95. Shipping is only $4 more.

I have to agree while this is a good thing its long over due and since slug is so big why the hell didnt they think about doing this a while back along with other 2d neo geo fighting games, grant it wont make them millions of more dollars but could considering the huge fan base, also they need more ports for other systems. SNKP cant be original ever and it seems they need to bring out old shit from the closet to make money instead in reinventing the wheel. Dont they realized that eventually they will destroy the franchise and then will they finally move on.

Since I didn't want to make yet ANOTHER thread about this, I decided to just post this in the most active topic...


From GAF

To my absolute and utter surprise and amazement, the SNK booth had two kiosks with fully playable near-final builds of Metal Slug Anthology for the Wii. It completely rocks. I checked out the options and there are like 6 or 7 different control schemes. You can play with the nunchuck attached using the analog stick (lefty or righty), in this mode you "throw" the Wiimote forward to throw grenades, which is kinda cool because you can hold down the fire button (B) while you chuck so you don't lose your stream of bullets for longer than you have to, it only takes a very slight movement). You can hold the controller sideways, NES style... but in this mode I couldn't figure out how to throw grenades. There are also control scheme options for VC controller and GameCube controller as well. Very cool! I had to check out Metal Slug 6 since it was only released in Japanese arcades, it's freaking great. It looks better than any previous version graphically. Less pixellated. It has a zoom-in/zoom-out effect sometimes too... like in Alien Hominid, which was not in any previous incarnation of Metal Slug, to my knowledge. The backgrounds were gorgeously animated and there was a new 'Laser' weapon which shoots a constant straight beam and extremely powerful. (Cool note: the first time I tried to load up Metal Slug 6 it froze up so the guy had to open up the black box that contained the Wii... turns out it was the test kit Wii with the green faceplate on the front. I got to see the disk eject and go back in too... very very smooth, smoother even than my car CD player.)

is it going to be a lunch title for the wii??

From what I have heard, yes. It's going to be a launch title. With all of the new announcements on the 6-7 different controls this has gone from a maybe to a must buy for me. Hopefully they will include Blood and mini games from the home versions.
