Mind if I tag in? *brings broom* Been a while since I hadn't checked this topic as well.
So Metal Slug Defence's gettin' more updates than it's Attack counterpart?

And unfortunately I don't have an android system yet, so I'll have to wait... unless I find an Andrid Emulator somewhere. That should be doable.

@Tortwag Thanks for the assistance hehe :embarassed:

Well, since Metal Slug Defense started first before Attack, it has more updates but the future updates these days contains only bug fixes and no more additional stuff.

In my opinion, SNK will probably focus more on Metal Slug Attack updates this time around since they tend to slightly improve their features and has more content. The only downside is that you always have to be online and probably have a very good connection. I haven't actually tried it yet and just talk about it in the community.

I can only say for now that Metal Slug Defense still has more units since there are collaboration units like the King of Fighters and Battle Cats (you can look this up if you're confused). Metal Slug Attack still has some more catching ups. I've heard that Metal Slug Attack will just be focusing on its own series and will not have some collaboration from other games.

Haven't posted here for a long while :embarassed:

Just wanted to include some of their advertisement videos here :smile2:








Seems like Metal Slug 7 is the only one that got a US commercial :unsure:




Tortwag

"THE ULTIMATE GAME" Man, you gotta love the US ads XD
Though to be fair the two Japanese ads above are about as over the top, so I forgive 'em, lol. But hey, I didn't Metal Slug even had commercials :O It really brings some nostalgia though, I'm sad that series isn't getting much attention now.

Well, the Metal Slug 4 commercial is actually from Korea :embarassed:

I also believe that the series needs more recognition as well (Metal Slug Attack isn't helping much in achieving that) :smile2:

Why does it always the obscure but great games suffer from lack of advertising :(

Okay, finally back, and hopefully for a long time this time.

It's from Korea? Huh. Fancy that. Then I guess it's just Asia as a whole that likes crazy ads XD
True, but it kinda fell ever since it attempted to go 33-D or released unseen DS games. They need to release something bigger for this to work.

*sigh* Mostly producers who end upstopping to care about these things, and fans that actually care lacking the power to do much. Hopefully becoming a Game Designer will allow me to change that at least a bit, but obviously I don't know.


No more news in the Metal Slug Corner for now?

The only MS news I know so far are the events and new units introduced in Metal Slug Attack (in which I haven't played myself personally). They have some original characters there that you won't see in the main series. Here are some of them:

MS-Alice from the Regular Army


Abigail from the Rebel Army


Professor from the Alien Army


Dragunov from the Ptolemaic Army


Scotia from the Independent Army

Oh my GOSH! They're on fire with these characters, they all actually nhave very different gameplays, too. They really COULD bring back Metal Slug with an 8th game and a bigger Run'n'gun than what they had before. Alice and Abigail would be my favorites so far, but really, I'm digging everyone's sprites and abilities. Darn, what are they doing? They could even create a MOBA out of this XD

Its been like days, weeks, even maybe months that I've posted here again. :embarassed:

Anyways, just wanted to inform you all that Metal Slug XX will be released on the Playstation 4 soon. It will include Leona this time since she was a DLC character before from the PSP version.





Tortwag

That... Really makes me wanna replay all of them. The newest Gundam really made me wanna buy the PS4 anyway, but that's a pretty darn good reason to do so, too. I hope it'll get a PC release, eventually, but YAY! Leona's finally playable officially!
