Great news for all you “Metal Slug” fans out there (including myself) as SNK Playmore has announced that they will be releasing the entire series on one PlayStation Portable UMD disk. This means you won’t have to scour eBay to get your hands on the rare “Metal Slug X” (originally released on the original PlayStation) or you won’t have to buy those expensive Xbox releases. Below is the official press release on the subject.
SNK PLAYMORE USA CORPORATION, the US publishing arm of the SNK PLAYMORE CORPORATION, announced today that in celebration of the 10th Anniversary of their classic arcade franchise, METAL SLUG, they will be releasing the greatest array of METAL SLUG titles ever assembled for the PSP (PlayStation Portable) system in fall 2006. The METAL SLUG COLLECTION will feature six great METAL SLUG titles from the past on one UMD. Included in the collection will be METAL SLUG, METAL SLUG 2, METAL SLUG X, METAL SLUG 3, METAL SLUG 4, and METAL SLUG 5.
The METAL SLUG COLLECTION will be perfect translations of the arcade classics and feature Wireless support for intense two-player action.
About METAL SLUG
The METAL SLUG franchise first appeared in arcades in April 1996 on the Neo-Geo MVS arcade platform and later on AES home entertainment system. The first title, METAL SLUG quickly gained a reputation as a spectacularly hand animated one or two-player run and shoot game with a sly sense of humor. The METAL SLUG series follows the story of two military factions, the Rebellion and the Regular Army, and their constant struggle for power.
