Does anyone know how many Metal Slug games have been released so far?

[Ascending Wordsmith]

1, 2, X, 3, 4, and 5 for coin ops.

There's some titles for handhelds as well.

[HellStar]

what do you mean by coin ops.?

And could you like tell me which game was for which console?

coin ops = arcade

in addition to the arcade & NG releases
MS1 = JP Saturn
MSX = US PSX
MS3 = US XB, JP PS2
MS4
MS5 = both are getting a US XB release (?)
i'm sure i'm missing some

then there's MS Advanced for the GBA & 2 MS games for the NGPC

That's a tall order

Go to GameFAQ's and type 'Metal Slug' into the search field. All Slug games and their consoles will be listed.

Yes.

Metal Slug 2 wasn't released on anything but the Neo Geo (home and arcade).

[dmhawkmoon]

Metal Slug 2 is almost the same as Metal Slug X. X is just a remake where they changed a few bosses, items, colors and enemy placement in some cases. You wouldn't be able to tell much of a difference just being a casual player...

The reason they did all this was just because part 2 had so much slowdown and they had come up with a solution for it.... Yeah X has less slowdown, though I don't really think it's that big a deal except for at the end of the game...

what about Metal Slug 4?

[ubersaurus]

Slug 4 and 5 are going to be released on PS2 and Xbox, but not for some months.
