Metal Slug Anthology only includes all arcade releases, so it does indeed include all of the true Metal Slugs. Add to that you forgot the mention the Metal Slugs for the Neo Geo Pocket. Plus, Metal Slug Advance was kinda weak IMO. :)
There's a version of Garou for PS2 which I downloaded from some website. I think it belongs to some SNK Playmore compilation. Thanks for reviewing that game, one of my all time favorites.
Thanks for the comment. Question though, how could the video quality use work? Do you mean by bettering teh actual resolution of the video or editing and transistions? Let me know as I'd love to know. Thanks!
Yes indeed, but it still doesn't feel right IMO. The GC is a good controller, but for an arcade game such as this, it isn't my personal favorite. Thanks for watching!
I think you're talking about the game after Marvel Superheroes. That game is Guardian Heroes for the Sega Saturn. It is a co-op beat em up created by Treasure. It's rare and a bit expensive, but it's well worth it if you own a Saturn.
Yea, I realize that MOTW is out for import PS2, but I mainly wanted to focus on the domestic releases as most people will not make the effort to mod or buy an import PS2. It's much easier for folks to buy the Dreamcast version as it's a cheaper route in my opinion.
I wasn't trying to give an SNK back story as that is covered through my link to the website. I want to try an cater to all sorts, but I do want to bring casual gamers into the fold who would not play these games otherwise.
great video. but didnt the wii version of metal slug anthology support a gamecube controller?
or at least it was supposed to be when it was still in development. cos i remember clearly seeing the devs showcasing the game and explaining that they had loads of different control schemes and gamecube controller was one of them.
Nice episode shame there are so few people out there that would play these games these days. I have a lot more fun playing a Neo Geo title than some overrated FPS or MMORPG (aka charities for game companies that need money to pay for office rent and bills).
your voice sounded like you are cold or something. The games were awesome, even for me who don't like fighting games. Metal Slug can be played with neo-geo modules for PC (as I heard), they were real something.
I like the sentimentalistic prologues before games. Keep that way.
Wii version of Metal Slug Anth. Rocks and has 6 ways to Control it. I don't waggle I just staight up us the WiiMote Sideways, it's like using an NES Controller. Fatal Fury and ALL SNK fighters= yawn.
You still have to shake the WiiMote either way you look at it. It doesn't have enough buttons to make it playable. Mark of the Wolves is different from any of the other Fatal Fury games. Hey, it's your loss.
So if I don't have PS2 or PSP, you are saying stay away from Metal Slug Anthology for Wii ANYWAYS?? That's a little too narrow minded, because in a subtle way, you are encouraging people who truely like the Metal Slug Series to either Buy a PSP or PS2 or just miss out EVEN if they have a Wii, because you said "Stay Away from the Wii version." It isn't a matter of Which version is best, not every gaming nerd owns a Fakestation2 or PSPSPSP. Hey if you own every system, buy the best version.
My comment was a general warning to gamers about the Wii version. There is no coded message, just a piece of advice. Sure, if all you have is a Wii, then you're stuck with playing that version. I was advising everyone, no matter if they had a PS2 or PSP, to stay away from the Wii version because of the listed problems. Why you feel the need to stand up for the Wii and bash the PS2 and PSP is beyond me. I want to know what versions of a game are best, so I give that information out to my viewers.
Yeah, I'm stuck. 30 bucks painfully spent. LOL. I'd say if you don't mind flicking the wiimote to "grenade" you will live. As for my feelings about Sony systems, by the way, my Playstation2 was stolen, Let's just say, that was a blessing in disguise. Making fun of Sony for its very creative naming of it's gaming consoles isn't ripping on the system. Refer to "Wii" as the Wiiwii, or PiiWii, it's a damn gaming system, NOT a human. I enjoy My Sega Deadcast, but I call it Dreamc.. wait, switch that.
I hear ya. Sometime you have to live with what you have. If nothing else, at least the Wii got the game. Yea, my friend and I have pet names for game systems as well. For some reason we call the PS2 "Twopums". I'm not sure why, it just happened one day. But hey, that's what happens when one gets bored.
Cool. Perhaps if you had been out making these vids when I used to buy games like "Guilty Gear X" (DC) and "Street Fighter 3rd Strike" (DC) you would have gotten a lot more possitive response outta me. As Neo Geo games Go, even though they are short and, at times annoying, I downloaded Magician Lord, and Top Hunter, BaseballStars2. I read about the Neo Geo Collection disc coming to some home console, but I think it might be too late for me. The one 2D Fighter I would like to see is FistNorthStar
The best piece of advice I could give you is to try out those SNK fighting games. Although you might have tried many games, it never hurts to try them all out. I've found a lot of games I really enjoyed that, at first, I thought I wouldn't. Thanks for the comments!
YAY first comment, Deffinately a good face lift for your review ep. It took a year man, but hey it was actually worth the wait. Good episode man, glad to see it up finally lol. Yea MOTW for me was the best as well, I still crack out on it every now and again to see if I still have the touch of the 24 plus combos. :) Awsome attention to detail. Love it. So another year for ep6 LOL
I was found mark of the wolves and last blade for dreamcast back in 02 45$ each well that's all I wanted for my birthday and that's what I got!

Garou MOTW was ported to the ps2 years ago...
It's probably cheaper to get the japanese import and a swap disc than to look for the dreamcast and the game.
the video itself is so and so.
it tries to give us the snk backstory but doesn't.
it feels to cater to the casual gamer and mentions atomiswave and fatal fury like they are household names.
it's sloppy written but the editing and video itself is good.
a for effort but it doesn't make me wanna bust out my mvs...
