- SNK Playmore USA president Ben Herman mentioned the company's future plans:

* Developers are looking into how to use the Wii controller in Metal Slug Anthology
* Metal Slug 6 will not be included in Metal Slug Anthology, however the game will likely appear in a Nintendo platform, because 2D games are not suitable for PS3 or Xbox 360
* Sony has rejected a number of their 2D projects for PS2, because they do not correspond to the graphic standard
* Metal Slug for GBA is a port of the first title in the series, coming out in September 2006
* SNK Playmore does not plan to release future titles for Xbox
* Wii will receive the most software support from SNK Playmore
* The PS2 shooter Twinkle Star Sprites will not be published in US because there's no market for the genre

It's a good thing Metal Slug 6 is still coming to the PS2 at the end of July.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Considering that there's tons of SNK fighters individually released in japan, I don't think it'll ever happen.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

If you have the ability of importing from play-asia or somewhere, there's no contest:

Garou: Mark of the Wolves is my favorite fighting game from SNK by far.

I think there's a King of Fighters 2000 + 2001 collection released on NTSC and PAL for PS2 as well. Concerning fighters, there isn't half as many in america/europe SNK titles as there are japanese. I haven't bothered with the 01+02 collection as I already own King of Fighters 2000 (which is my favorite KoF) but there's a ton of them which were japan-only releases that my friend has.

Anyway can someone please explain how it's possible to play Metal Slug on a PSP? No jokes, I don't know how.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

Oh wow, this is out already?

Hmm, this will be my first actual Wii game purchased. The question is, should I import it and wait for the Wii Freeloader, or just wait until it arrives in PAL?

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?

I don't remember there being any differences mentioned except for the cover art, so I guess it will really depend on if you can wait for the Freeloader to come out (whenever that is).

I'm thinking january for the Wii Freeloader, since they've already announced that it's being made.

I was speaking idiomatically.
