Need to have a go this weekend. Stupid decorating!
Does anyone know if the PS1 version is the same as arcade?
Awesome thanks Spacedeck. I've got a new toy I want to try out for recording so I'll give it a go tonight or tomorrowI had a very quick look at both versions on YT. They look pretty much the same to me, so I'd say go for it.
you can still join in, play the old games where you have a target and post your scores. You also get added to the wheel with your game choices.This seems like fun! Gutted I missed Black Tiger though.
I'll keep an eye on this in case something comes up that I can get my teeth into.
That said, largely the games I really love I'm awful at.
You've got the new RetroTink? Aren't those bad boys the thick end of a grand?I used the new RetroTINK 4K hooked up to the MiSTer to play and the quality of the upscaling is phenomenal!
Posting a High Score of 91020 here. I ended up playing via the Neo Geo core on the MiSTer in the end. I tried Metal Slug on PS1 and it was the X version, which seemed different?
They aren't cheap, but the scaling and scanline emulation is out of this world compared to what we have had before. I intend on making a thread on it when I get some time as I've been blown away how much better this thing is than the 5x, the image clarity I've got from consoles is amazing.You've got the new RetroTink?

I've seen some very nice looking CRT emulation screenshots through them.
I've just looked online and you're right, it was released in Japan onlyAccording to wiki, the original released on the Playstation in 1997. X is a remake of Metal Slug 2, and seems much more common on Playstation than the first game. Makes me wonder if the original was only release on Playstation in Japan as it's mostly difficult to find anything on that.

28 minutes it took for them to sell out. Possibly would have been quicker if a lot of potential buyers didn't have issues (based on a lot of chatter and complaints on Discord).i was hovering over the tink 4k and then fortunately they went out off stock before i pushed the button![]()
i submitted one already!I'll get on this game at some point today. Fairly quiet this week, probably everyone busy with Christmas just around the corner. I haven't played a game in a while, busy learning other things at the moment.

Reminder that you have a couple of days to submit a score if you wish to play this week.
Had my first go, forgot what a fun game it was; the slowdown on real hardware or mister comes in handy I think !
50910 for my first attempt
