It’s adapt and react in Metal Slug or else you will go broke fast. The trick is you can’t, there is way too much going on from every angle. The insane difficulty and punishing nature of the game make you calculate every move. It may have been the fact they I was never able to finish a Metal Slug game in the arcades, but even the home console versions still capture that feeling I had all those years ago during batting practice. However they usually didn’t live up to the magic that illuminated from the cabinet while in the dark arcades, the exception was Metal Slug. So whenever an arcade game came over to consoles I would get excited. Arcade machines always seemed so magical to me. I knew I had to play this game, but being stuck at batting practice in pants I hated meant I would have to wait.įast forward some years after I got my grubby paws on the machine SNK has brought the game over to a various different platforms. I was curious because I had never seen a game that violent or loud before. Accompanying those enticing letters were the sounds of soldiers screaming and absolute insanity. The title at the top of the machine read Metal Slug X in huge steel letter. One machine in particular captured my ears and eyes.
While most of the kids were focused on actually making contact with the balls, I was distracted by the various noises coming from the arcade machines that inhabited the oddly lit building. Every so often I, along with the rest of the Montreal Expos, would go to the batting cages to work on our swings and hitting baseballs. While most of them didn’t stick, I have to give baseball some credit for introducing me to Metal Slug. I played a few different sports as a kid.
