Metal Slug is a fast paced, run-and-gun game, with a nice selection of power-ups. To play, you hold the Wii-mote side-ways. Almost everything in the game can kill you. It contains Metal Slug 1, 2, X, 3, 4, 5, and the newest game in the series, released in 2006, in the Anthology versions, 6. The basic objective of the game is to kill everything that moves, rescue the prisioners and kill the boss. Metal Slug 1-5 were released in the arcade, made by SNK A.K.A. SKN Playmore. Metal Slug 6, I already mentioned. Excluding M.S. 1 (in which you can only play as Marco (player one) and Tarma (player two)) you play as 1 of 4 characters. Marco, Fio, Eri, and Tarma. In 4, Nadia and Trevor (each from a different SNK series) replace Eri and Tarma, and in 6, Ralf and Clark (again, each from a different SNK series) join up, and every character has their own special ability (Down+B.) (Since you hold it sideways, I'll tell you the contols like that.) Left = Left, Right = Right, Down = Duck, Up= Shoot upwards, - button = pause, + button = Pause, 1 button = Jump, 2 button = Shoot and shake the Wii-mote to throw a grenade. Upgrades. Fire bomb = Molitov Cocktail, Grenade = Grenade, Stone = Throw stones, H = Heavy Machine-Gun, R = Rocket Launcher, I = Ion Lizard, D = Dropshot, C = enemy chaser, G = Super Grenage, S = Shotgun.

It is very good game, and I do recommend it.
8/10

Edit: Due to popular opinion (one,) I'll give my opinion.
While it's nice and dandy, it used to be an arcade game, and the graphics arn't really that special, but, I'm not the one to complain about graphics. It gives you a challange through out the game, and you can unlock music and some official M.S. Concept art. While short, each game has more to offer a sencond time through, with different bosses and endings. Do a specific challenge, and unlock special stuff. My only complaint is the loading times. It just brought the speed of the game down a bit, and stopped the fast-paced action. It has the right amount of comedy and action to be a great side-scrolling, run-and-gun game.

Edit: Due to more opinions, I'll give moar collums.

Graphics:
The graphics were awsome for their time, but now-a-days, they're considered crap, yet I'm not the one to care about graphics.

Gameplay/Game design:
The game is in 2-D, and very fast pace, having to fire left and right, and probably breaking your thumb in the process. There can probably be up to 26 ememies on the screen at once, including tanks. It's very challenging, yet you have unlimited continues. The real objective of this game is to shoot everything that moves, and kill the bosses.

Music:
The music is epic, and fits the level its playing on. Thats all I really have to say about music.

Sund:
Sound effects fit. Nothing special. Screaming, exsplosions, ect.

Story:
From what I know, there is none, because I don't read the ENCLOSED INSTRUCTION BOOK.

The only actual reviwewing you did was saying "It is very good game, and I do recommend it." Try giving your opinions on it instead of just explaining the controls.
