This great for any die hard metal slug fan, or someone that wants to ketch up. If contra would have kept on being cool and would have had comedy in it, it would have been metal slug. The controls are GREAT on the Wii. I think there is like 5 diffrent ways to play. The only down fall of this collection is that it doesnt have a lot of unlockables. For the metal slug collection i would expect more. Plus this game has ulimited credits, so play your little hart out.

This game is crazy fun and i don’t even like arcade games! Some people argue that you can get metal slugs games online for free….why buy them?Well this game smashes any metal slug game online…it comes with 7 games in all and you can co-op with up to four players!Its a great game and definitely something to own!!!

For the price of one of the Metal Slugs on the Android you can just get this for the Wii. It was amazing game. It stands the trail of time and continues to be fun, much like the well known collection of Mario, this game too deserves praise of being fun and entertaining.

It really has some weird setups for controllers. You can’t use the joystick on gamecube controllers to navigate menus. If you don’t start a game with the first game cube controller, it automatically puts in two people. Also takes a bit of extra time to load between screens that wasn’t needed on the arcade versions. Most of the setups for controllers are impractical to use.However, it includes:Metal SlugMetal Slug 2Metal Slug XMetal Slug 3Metal Slug 4Metal Slug 5Metal Slug 6Despite what it says on the back of the box, it is 2 player (not 4) and you can use the Wii-mote, nunchuck and gamecube controllers in a variety of control schemes. I immediately switched it to the gamecube control scheme and haven’t changed it since, and it’s very playable and enjoyable.There are not very many extras though, but whenever you finish a game you get 4 credits, which can be used to unlock art galleries, an interview (text only) and some music.

This game is timeless! and it is so much fun in 2P mode. Although the individual games don’t last long, the experience is intense. At this price, Metal Slug Anthology is worth every cent!

I remember playing the SNK arcade version of this near my school, so when i found out it was on the Wii, i just HAD to have it. Game rules and the service in getting me this game rules. Thanks!

This has all the old school metal slugs that ate all my quarters years back. I recomend this for a trip down memory lane and also because its so addictive!

I remember playing the Metal Slug series extensively both on home consoles and at arcades during the mid to late 90’s. This collection for the Wii contains Metal Slug 1-6. In addition to the games, there is a Metal Slug Gallery which contains various memorabilia that can be unlocked when you earn tokens during gameplay.For the Wii, I recommend using the PS2 to Wii adaptor as the action gets pretty insane and is better served with a traditional control pad(the PS2 pad feels comfortable for me). The games are perfectly emulated(with the colorful Neo-Geo sprites and big explosions) and you even get the familiar Neo-Geo jingle at the start-up screen of each game.Each of these Metal Slug games would’ve costed between $250-$300 new in its AES form(I remember paying $300 for a brand new Metal Slug X cart in 1999). So this is a tremendous value with 6 completes games at around(or under) fifteen bucks on retrolio. Hectic and fast-paced 2D action, you can get your Metal-Slug fix with this fun Anthology on the Wii.

The Metal Slug games are arcade classics. Giving classic shooters such as Contra a run for their money, Metal Slug truly made shooters a completely different experience. These arcade classics are now available in an anthology package. The games include Metal Slug 1-5, Metal Slug X and the never before officially released Metal Slug 6.When you begin the game you have all the Metal Slug games from the get go. So you don’t have to unlock any of the games, they’re all right there from the get go. It’s fun to play these games for two reasons. One, it’s nice to see just how each game changes from one to the next. The series really evolves as time goes on. Also, they’re really tough games that even the most experienced of gamers will have trouble with.Each game has a unique art style going for it. Each level in every game is literally littered with thousands of enemies and troops. You’ll be able to get a hold of weapons like a flamethrower or shotgun to thwart your enemies. You’ll also be able to throw grenades. The challenge in these games don’t let up, though. It’s a good thing that you can give yourself infinite continues. You’ll certainly need them. The look and feel of these games hasn’t really changed much. It’s all still there. The blood, the explosions, the tough bosses. They’re perfect emulations.Part of the excitement with the Metal Slug Anthology, specifically for the Wii, is the immense number of control set ups you can have. There’s the standard classic set up which inv.

Rather than write a long review about Metal Slug Anthology for the Nintendo Wii. I decided to give a simple pros and cons review. I hope this review is easy for you to read and understand. Pro.* 7 Metal Slugs games in one (Metal Slug 1, 2, X, 3, 4, 5, 6).* Metal Slugs fans finally get a chance to play Metal Slugs 6 (The arcade game was available to play in Japan but not here in the USA).* 6 unique, odd, and interesting ways to play Metal Slug Anthology for the Nintendo Wii including the uses of the Nintendo GameCube Controller.* You can play Metal Slug Anthology anytime you want so no more bringing a butt load of quarters to the arcade plus if you prefer a real challenge you can turn off the Unlimited Continue options and go for the Limited Continues option. (Easy-30 Credits, Normal-20 Credits, and finally Hard-10 Credits. Good luck for those who choose hard mode.)* Rapid Fire Mode-No more button mashing (You can turn this feature off if you like in options menu or the pause menu.)With all the good things I just wrote about Metal Slug Anthology for the Nintendo Wii now come the bad things. Con.* Annoying loading time between levels. (Don’t worry the loading time only last for about a few seconds)* Out of the 6 ways to play Metal Slug Anthology only 3 seem useful. The other 3 seem useless. (Nunchuk mode should be dubbed lazy mode, Tilt Wii Remote mode and Arcade mode are very difficult and almost impossible to play because you have to hold the Wii Remote up or on it side and.

As other have said is hard to use the wii control with this game but if you have a game cube controller then everything is great, certainly you can’t use the d-pad just the analog stick but for me that was more than enough. This is a must have for everyone that have played metal slug arcade series

I picked this game up way back in 2006, shortly after the Wii was released in the U.S. And I haven’t regretted it since then.Metal Slug Anthology takes 7 games (parts 1 through 6 and part X – also released for the PS1), adds some extra content you can unlock after playing through the game and puts them together on one DVD. If you loved the Contra arcade games or ground based shooting games in general, you will love this compilation. All of these games support 2 player co-op so it’s easy for a friend to jump in and with the game supporting multiple control methods, it’s easy to choose a controller and customize the buttons to your liking. It’s not expensive either so pick this one up if you don’t have this in your Wii games collection…highly recommended. :)

This is a great deal if you want to be able to play Metal Slug games! It’s better than getting each and every single other Metal Slug game on the Virtual Console or something.Also do note that this game is the only way to play Metal Slug 6 on something not an arcade cabinet. Actually, the 6th game is the only reason I got it.I only gave it 4 stars instead of 5 because some games don’t have the console-exclusive features that some of these games SHOULD have when some of them went on the PS2.And, on the Wii version, there is no support for the Classic Controller. Which may or may not bother you. As for me, it would have made my gaming experience much easier and to my preference. I’m stuck with playing with the Wii remote held horizontally…

I picked this game up recently due to this strange need to play a good simple shooter game and so far have been incredibly satisfied with it. You get 7 Metal Slug games (think Contra with more cartoony graphics, more ways to kill people, and vehicles you can ride in called Metal Slugs) in one package, each newer one with a few minor enhancements in gameplay. The explosions are ridiculous and the animations of your enemies as you blow them away (or even as they blow you away) is pretty hilarious. There are a ton of cool guns with different effects, which you usually will get by rescuing prisoners.The game gives you options of difficulty level and number of continues you want to be allowed (default is normal difficulty and unlimited continues), and a number of control options. I’ve seen a lot of complaints about controls, but I play almost every non-motion-based game with the Wii remote and nunchuk and this one is no exception. I find the controls more than adequate, though it is only slightly annoying you have to flick the Wiimote to throw a grenade or shoot a missile from your Metal Slug. I’ve turned the Wiimote on it’s side and played that way too, but that d-pad hurts my fingers after a while. I much prefer the analog joystick of the nunchuk. Oh yeah, and you get an auto-fire option so you don’t have to button mash (I strongly recommend turning it on).The two main complaints I have is the opening interface where you select which game you want (or options) is really.

This is a very nice game. The only thing that I don’t really like is how at the end of Metal Slug 6, it says to be continued.

This is all of the Metal Slug games bundled in a nice all-in-one release for the Nintendo Wii. It’s a fun game but a little repetitive. Some of the first three Metal Slug games even have identical levels which makes game play a little boring. I will admit I’m not great at these games but the money I spent on the game I would have spent easily in quarters to beat all of these in the arcade for what the $40 sticker price. I will say it’s a good game for you and a friend to enjoy. Each of the games takes about an hour to beat and there are six games plus 1 alpha (for a total of seven). If you like Metal Slug by all means get this game. There have been some other comments about load screens during the game they are brief and I didn’t find them to be too annoying. If you’re simply looking for something for the Wii to play you might consider something else.
