[QUOTE=Combineguy;43696923]If we're porting Neo-Geo games, can we get motherfucking WINDJAMMERS with some online play?[/QUOTE]
Windjammers is on GGPO.
Guys, this is everything I've ever wanted.
[QUOTE=NomadicNinja;43696951]I got invited to the beta for this and there's nothing wrong with it from what I've seen.
Will try Online mode with a friend and report back.[/QUOTE]
Someone on the steam community discussion board for ms3 said it has rollback netcode akin to ggpo but it hasn't been confirmed
[QUOTE=ashxu;43696794]You can already play most of the Metal Slugs online on Supercade. It looks like the Steam version is being made by DotEmu which apparently didn't make good phone ports of the series.[/QUOTE]
It's because it sucks ass to play arcade titles on a phone. You use a virtual thumb stick and buttons so you end up covering up half the screen with your hands.
Holy SHIT.
One of my favorite games, can't wait to grab this.
oh my FUCK. Metal Slug is the pinnacle of 2d-shooters.
I hope they bring the anthology to pc. And the enhanced versions of kof 98 and 2002.
[QUOTE=GiGaBiTe;43696825]This honestly isn't really that spectacular.
It's probably going to be like all of the other old game ports by using some poor quality generic emulator (because they can't license the good ones) tossed in a wrapper to streamline the UI. I wouldn't be surprised if the netplay came from the Kaillera client or something similar.
You can get a much better experience just using MAME or one of the other better emulators, and you get way more features than you would on a release like this.
I actually prefer playing it on the original arcade cabinet with a CRT monitor. Keyboards and LCD monitors don't do it justice.
If they had redone all of the graphics in HD (maybe using one of those side scrolling 3D engines) and made a native PC port, it might be worth getting.[/QUOTE]
I don't want a HD remake cause they'll probably butcher the delicious sprite work
There was an official android app but it was shit so I got a refund. Hoping this is a better port.
Sounds amazing, I still have the original game and cartridge for the Neo Geo Arcade in my garage.
Metal Gear Rising [I]and[/I] Metal Slug? Steam you are becoming a godsend.

you can post there and like/follow them on facebook/twitter if you want a key. Not sure how or if you're gonna get one but I got one a few hours after I posted in that thread.
Haven't played online yet but so far the game works fine, there's still that game slowdown like the original when there's a lot of shit on the screen and you only get 5 credits. The game detected my arcade stick correctly and all the expected resolution options + options for if you want a smoothing filter + scanlines over your game if you want.
This game always had an amazing soundtrack:

I wish they'd port the entire Anthology over. Metal Slug X & 6 were my favourite.
Metal Slug 3 is the best of all the MS games: the first on having multiple paths, longer game time, new weapons and vehicles, a great load of secrets... is without doubt my favourite. X was the shit, and 4 was great. 5 was rushed and is incomplete since they cut a lot (but at least their soundtrack is fucking awesome), and 7, it was ok.
Oh god, I feel like, I'm in italy with arcade machines all over me when I was 11.
Definitly going to buy this gem.

Funfact: the sprites were rendered from 3D models.
OH FUCK YEAH I've been just thinking that I'd like something like this, I hope the online features work well. I tried playing some metal slug with a friend online with some emulator and it didn't work very well, as soon as any lag would happen, both games would desync horribly and we'd both start seeing the other player doing completely different stuff and running into walls and everything.
Aw to bad they changed the select screen mugshots.

She's still the best character even if her portrait isn't amazing. None of the other characters can dance things to death.

i guess they didnt want them to look "american?" to appeal to the Japanese pc market?
after reading the metal slug wiki i find out that those select screen photos are the same as the smart phone port of metal slug 3

it's 80x140 but oh well
Hope they add other Metal Slugs like Metal Slug X, that is a kick ass game.
Also we need to swap steam users so we can play together.
After SNK temporarily dissolved, I recall that the dev team from 3 worked on an arcade game called Dolphin Blue.
