I've never played any Metal Slug game so I'd like to correct this. What's the best way to play those games nowadays? Upon googling I noticed Steam had a bunch of them but all the comments are saying it's badly emulated (as usual).
So far what I'm planning on doing :
Metal Slug 1 - ?
Metal Slug 2 - ?
Metal Slug 3 - ?
Metal Slug 4 - ?
Metal Slug 5 - ?
Metal Slug 6 - ?
Metal Slug 7 - DS
What about the remakes, spin-offs, compilations listed over there? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Metal_Slug_video_games#Remakes
Are they worth playing?

Correction
Metal Slug 7 - PSP (under the title Metal Slug XX)
I don't know about the Steam release, as far as I know it's just a hacked Final Burn emulator. That should cover up to MS5.
Anyway get the anthology for MS6.
Also dude, don't stress over 1ccs. That's for try hards.
Metal Slug 1 - Saturn
Metal Slug X - PS1
Metal Slug 3 - Xbox
Metal Slug 4 and 5 - PS2
Metal Slug 6 and 7 - lol get out of here
the neo geo pocket color ones are fun as fuck too btw

>Metal Slug 7 - PSP
I don't own a PSP though. Maybe my PC could support emulating it though.

I don't think I'll tryhard or try to beat any records, I just want to have fun playing through all the games.

Might be a dumb question but isn't there an arcade emulator out there? If so wouldn't it be best to get that and emulate all the first Metal Slug games that were originally on arcade? I don't even have a TV anymore, just a PC and a DS (with a sd card, so I can put roms on it).
Thanks for trying to help.

Yeah that's probably the best route to playing all games in single player. Get the latest PPSSPP and get the anthology + XX isos off emuparadise.

You know I'm sure I might get shit for this but the metal slug anthology on ps2 and wii is pretty good in my opinion. Few problems with slowdown but nothing awful for me.

Btw, Fightcade is also a modded Final Burn.
only one worth playing
1, X, and 3.
2, 4, and 5 are let downs.
I can't vouch for 6 nor 7 but i hear 6 was a step in the right direction or the NGPC ones.
3 imo is the best and saved for last.
Metal Slug advance looks meh, try that if you liked.

Alright, thanks, I'll check these things out. My computer is kinda trash so hopefully everything runs okay. I'll try this later.
I don't think I'll want to play with anyone else, am only interested in playing them solo.

I'll still play them all so I can make my own opinion of them. Thanks though.
Get it on Neo Geo.
