Metal Slug - 1st Mission - Stop the Evil Plans of Colonel Bildegaarn! | 1999 | Neo Geo Pocket Color
Metal Slug 1st Mission plays similarly to other Metal Slug games, but has toned down graphics for the Neo Geo Pocket Color hardware. Notably, grenades are thrown by pressing the option button to switch, then fire. This was changed in the sequel. When the game is completed once, another character becomes playable. There are five different difficulty levels: kids, easy, normal, hard, and very hard. The game was released as part of the NEOGEO POCKET COLOR SELECTION Vol. 1 bundle for Nintendo Switch and Steam.
GAME RECORDING INFO:
The game was emulated at Retroarch. It was integer scaled to 4k, without bi-linear filtering, and retaining the original aspect ratio (display aspect ratio, not internal resolution). And captured using shader / filter that simulates the original screen of the hardware. I also created an image of the handheld to use as a bezel above the game, to create a nostalgic atmosphere.
