Wait seriously, what is the name? any source of this claim?
shut up you stupid moron
unlike modern shit the top portraits are clearly comically ugly and not ugly because of incompetance or some other moronic american reason. they are not what the characters actually look like.
braindead fricking mongoloid.
Why lie?
I can already imagine nu-Ganker screeching like a monkey at this face spamming the catalog with >THEY TURNED HER INTO A troony HOW COULD THEY DO THIS OH NO NO NO HAHAHAHAAHAHA XD
stop imagining made up situations then
the nonsensical shit you come up with doesn't fit metal slug or any of the discussion around it, especially because the main thing people complain about this chink metal slug is how the girls are too pretty.
Why single out MK when a dozen games have gotten a similar treatment in the past few months, and even more with smaller amounts due to less notoriety? People are determined to prevent anybody from liking anything. I say that thinking MK fricking sucks as a franchise, but not for the shit so many of threads are about, rather it's the fact that pretty much all of them feel like shit.
they all looked goofy, the thing was animated like a 30s cartoon, everyone pratfalling and mugging all the time
the game is slapstick, you turn into monkies mummies and a fatass as powerups, you have a gun that fires rc cars with chuck jones faces
that's what the game is, comedy cartoon commandos fighting everything in the world
>Lloyd has become the most common form of the name in all parts of Wales today, and with the double-L pronounced as a single-L (without the voiceless, "unilateral hiss"), and the use of a single-L in the spelling is rare. The "more correct" spelling (or the spelling more closely matching the Welsh llwyd) Llwyd had long ceased to be used as a version of the name until fairly recently, "as Lloyd has been deliberately changed to Llwyd in a number of cases in our own time".
How about you tell what your point with that post is then? What has the letter 'R' got to do with literally anything?

Yeah but I'm talking about Front Mission and Spy x Family and Japs inability to write the name Lloyd, you fricking stupid idiot. Go away and take your failed arcade machine bing bing wahoo shooter with you.

I simply focused on the question of "What exactly is the Japs problem with the name Lloyd" in general. I didn't think of looking at the filename in the post and assumed it was about the one L or something similar, since you replied to a post that was explicitly referencing Spy x Family.

It's such a strange detachment of what Metal Slug used to be. They are really chasing after Chinese dollars with the direction they took such a classic title to.
1. Metal Slug has a long history of low-effort dogshit mobile games dating back to the 00s, this new one by Tencent is just the most egregious since all the previous at least reused the excellent sprite art of the main series instead of this garbage
2. SNK's multiple bankruptcies lead to them focusing in heavily on a small number of IPs at any given time, basically just KOF + one other thing. First it was SamSho, then it was seemingly Metal Slug before the new FF got announced.
3. Metal Slug has no precedence as a console/PC game, only arcade and handheld games that got ported over time. The PS2 TPS was panned for being bland and unlike the main series, and SNK themselves stated a few years back that they were trying to figure out how to make a Metal Slug game that feels worth the likely full retail price they'd want to charge.
4. Nobody played 1st & 2nd Mission on the Neo Geo Pocket Color, two great games that could've been a template for console 2D Metal Slug, and as such nothing with better sprites in their style was ever made.
Just waiting for MS Tactics to get a release date.
Blue is based, I'd hope that one day this style could be the backbone of a game or even just a short animated series, but I imagine the Patreon cash for the porn is more lucrative.
>no team metal slug to accompany the metal slug stage in KoF 15
I feel like SNK just can't do anything right anymore
at least the shading in the new fatal fury game looks fricking sick
>What went wrong?
If the girls were not animefied, incels would riot and call the designed woke gay troony shit. There's no pleasing that trash unless it's some soulless chink gacha with bimbos.
Tbf the only good Metal Slug games are the original trilogy from the original development team and the spinoff games they made for GBA and NGP. Everything else is a soulless cashgrab even if they kept the same graphics style and gameplay. Go check the new game the original team is now working at.
Here is the new Metal Slug like game from the original development team:
https://www.timeextension.com/news/2023/08/ex-metal-slug-developers-announce-black-finger-jet-a-new-run-and-gun-game
As about older games, check out Dolphin Blue, Gunforce 2 and In the Hunt from same creators. DB and GF2 are Metal Slug like games and INH are like the submarine levels of MS3.
I keep getting the ads for their gacha game shit, and I can tell that they're trying so hard to allure the nostalgia gays, it's honestly pretty pathetic.
>make god tier pixel art >damn, that shit's expensive >SNK does a lot of extremely moronic shit like trying to randomly open a giant amusement park on top of this >run out of money >series putters out, backgrounds increasingly becoming static soulless smudged 3D shit to save money instead of ones full of animation and detail >get sold to ching chongs well before the saudi prince wants SNK for his KoF waifus >doomed to be mobile gacha slop or fugly 2.5d slop, both p2w >the original metal slug team from the trilogy days are making a spiritual successor
A combination of suffering from high quality and being attached to an extremely moronic company that fricked itself to death.
Are they still making these games? I don't keep up.
I still pull out the original trilogy every couple months or so and play through them though. Classic arcade kino.
No, because SNK got gutted decades ago after the first 3 games, changing hands between asiatics, chinks and towelheads while producing nothing but rehashes and shovelware. They are a shadow of their former selves.
Chinks.
I thought Metal slug as American game.
well you thought wrong, dumbass.
How? Americans can't into pixelart.
Blasphemous says otherwise
Spanish, not American.
>shit says otherwise
if it was american the male characters would be black
Even in 1990s?
mutts were using the national guard to threaten people to worship nogs in the 60s
When they lynched and hanged Mary Turner you were like: based, based, absolutely beisd.
I don't know who that Black person is moronic mutt

Pigeon? You got shadowbanned dude.
absolute state of /lgbt/ troons
It's funny because the chinks made a Contra mobile game and they turned the main character black just for the US release
you are just as moronic as the people that though dark souls was a western game
>dudes look exactly the same
>girls get bimbofied
soulless
Look up gameplay, the dudes arent even consistent, this game has AI slop all over it when Marco's face changes 5 times depending on what textbox is on screen
If this was reversed you would be screaming like a homosexual about how women were censored and made ugly.
>change was made to make it shittier

Yes, stupid

Get your trash taste off of my website.
And he'd be right, why couldn't the artists keep the artstyle the same?

Then elucidate us, or would you rather just be a smug c**t?
>the actual real metal slug devs have gotten back together and are making a new action game
Wait seriously, what is the name? any source of this claim?
The few times I opened threads for the new game barely got any replies and most of them were trolls whining about it.
I like them all except Fio, they didn't even try
How's the Tactical RPG that they're doing? It looked cool
wasn't SNK working on an actual metal slug game? what happened to that shit?
Turned into Metal Slug Awakening probably?
I thought that was made by some random chink company, at this point I think I'm misremembering them talking about a metal slug game
>Only the males retain soul
Grim. Coomers are truly a cancer upon gaming
If they made anything resembling top nowadays, Gankerrannies will have a meltdown about woke troony ESG or some shit.

they would be outing themselves as fricking morons that never played the game
Things change. Move on.
like how you changed your gender last year huh?
where's leona
should have made the girls make the stupid faces too, even if they were prettied up
why did Fio look stoned in the original?
It was a different time
they all looked goofy, the thing was animated like a 30s cartoon, everyone pratfalling and mugging all the time
the game is slapstick, you turn into monkies mummies and a fatass as powerups, you have a gun that fires rc cars with chuck jones faces
that's what the game is, comedy cartoon commandos fighting everything in the world
>Loid
What exactly is the Japs problem with the name Lloyd?
Their dialect not having the phonetic sound for that letter is a good start.
Yeah but they must know how to write, right?
Sure, because basic literacy within your own language totally translates to an equivalent understanding of a foreign language.
It does when you live in the first world.
now you are just being deliberately moronic
>Lloyd has become the most common form of the name in all parts of Wales today, and with the double-L pronounced as a single-L (without the voiceless, "unilateral hiss"), and the use of a single-L in the spelling is rare.

Yeah? The issue is still the L, you know.
Find me an ancient spelling of Lloyd with an R and then I'll shut my piehole.
What has that got to do with anything with this

They're both my posts so you tell me.

David Liu also leans in that 80s style (he even did the artwork for a MS spin-off).

They're the same, it's just a slightly different angle and expression, are you guys moronic?
It's just boomers that can't accept that they're not longer being marketed to.
but im a zoomer though
>angle
Right might as well be an onlyfans bimbo
The expressions are very different (especially for the girls) and so is the style. But you knew this, of course.
So, when do we get Tactics?
You grew old. They aimed for a new generation.

I keep getting the ads for their gacha game shit, and I can tell that they're trying so hard to allure the nostalgia gays, it's honestly pretty pathetic.
I still want to breed Fio though.
The wrong Metal Slug gacha died. Granted they both shit by proxy of >Gacha but at least it was entertaining
I hate what this game was but I will admit it was pretty cool to have the factions fleshed out.
saudis and chinks
I'm unironically having fun just had to disable the auto aim
What the frick is this? Who's that ethnically correct Egyptian girl and why is she talking about some old Pharaoh? Isn't this Metal Slug?
"Monument of Depression"
First level of metal slug 2/X.
Helluva first level too, has everything.

>damn, that shit's expensive
It was literally made by less than 20 people that were paid with peanuts (including Akio, the leading artist)
In a perfect world, BroForce would have been made with pixel art on par with Metal Slug.
But this is not a perfect world.
The original MS style is hideous and not in a good sense. New Eri looks like trash too.
Are they still making these games? I don't keep up.
I still pull out the original trilogy every couple months or so and play through them though. Classic arcade kino.
No, because SNK got gutted decades ago after the first 3 games, changing hands between asiatics, chinks and towelheads while producing nothing but rehashes and shovelware. They are a shadow of their former selves.
So in the end, what do we think?
What's the best way to play through the old games? Is the PS2/Wii Anthology any good?
MAME, always has been. Except for 6, you need a SEGA Naomi emulator for that.
I remember buying the Anthology bundle and somehow the game kept crashing on the final mission of MS6 even though it ran just fine for the other MS.
