Metal Slug 6 - Metal Slug Moves to Dreamcast from Neo Geo! - Atomiswave / Dreamcast
238It's Metal Slug Mania Time! A Ten Part Series dedicated to looking at the history and evolution of the mainline Metal Slug franchise from SNK! Sadly after the Neo Geo AES and MVS were discontinued and retired Metal Slug had to go somewhere...so it popped over to the Atomiswave arcade board...which is just really a Dreamcast with a JAMMA edge after all! Retro Gaming is confusing like that!

I really wanted to take a look at the Metal Slug franchise as it's one of my favorite arcade series of all time and the history behind the games and their evolution is quite interesting. When it comes to retro gaming you can't skip Metal Slug!
Up next: Metal Slug 6! The first game in the franchise NOT to be on the Neo Geo AES / MVS. SNK moved the franchise over to the Atomiswave (just a Dreamcast with a JAMMA edge) but they evolved the game in tons of ways. New weapons and weapons inventory systems, zooming the screen in and out for more dramatic run and gun action...all while making a Metal Slug game worthy of the franchise. Plus for retrogaming enthusiasts Metal Slug 6 now runs on Dreamcast too thanks to some intrepid modders!
