Metal Slug Mania when?

Metal Slug Mania when?

We just need a PC remake that includes 1/2/X/3 and runs at 60fps

Never unfortunately.

Metal Slug worked amazingly as an arcade game so the time investment in creating those sprites was worth it.

On home systems, with infinite lives; you're looking at an hour length game at most with a stupid high development cost in comparison.

60fps is overrated shit. Git gud or whatever.

>60fps is overrated shit. Git gud
Are you fucking retarded?

Metal Slug games are fun as fuck to replay and you know online exists, right?

Hopefully at some point. SNK is trying to pull themselves together and shits out lots of new sprites for their mobage. Who knows.

Probably never EVER.

The majority of people don't replay games after their first play through. Even if they did, the style of game Metal Slug is means they can't charge anything higher than maybe $15-20 US which still doesn't justify how much work that would have to go into making all those new art assets.

The only way we are seeing a new, major Metal Slug release is if they go full HD sprites and backgrounds that are easy to animate and tile so they can create something equivalent to Rayman Origins/Legends so they can charge $50-60 for the same amount of work.

rehashing sonic sprites is one thing but rehashing metal slugs top tier shit isn't doable

Idunno, the entire series kind of did that already.

They have already made new art assist for their mobile games. And those games are sold for less than $5.

>assist
assets*

Prove it.

No wait
okay...
what about Metal Slug
In 3D

it was okay

really want to get into the mobile game just for the sprites but it's online required and pay to win bullshit...

whoa

Worth emulating?

meh look up some gameplay youtself.
it's a really barebones early tps attempt it does shake things up every level to keep it interesting at least

or better yet, new content

Or better... Just a classic 2D style Metal Slug with 3D models and backgrounds made by Arc System Works with the same tech they used with Guilty Gear Xrd.

SNK probably doesn't have enough funds to make it themselves (and make it look good) anyway so outsourcing seems the best option.
