Metal Slug Collection...

do I ‘need’ the AES+ 35th Anniversary console with the white Metal Slug??

Probably not, right??

There’s the impending MS8/MS reboot, which some speculate will be an AES+ exclusive, but firstly the teaser video shows the ‘reboot’ text on a multi slot arcade cab, which would be weird if it were to be an AES+ exclusive, and secondly for profitability surely it has to be multi format, right?

If they’re already making PCBs that work with OG Neo Geo hardware, it’s not a massive stretch that there will also be an MVS version, right??

Nothing to lose ordering the white from Amazon on buy now, decide later.

I'd bet all my MVS against AES+ exclusivity.

I'd be amazed if there's an NG version at all. I'm crossing my fingers just for pixel art.

I think there is a chance there will be NG versions…

NG Dev, Bitmap Bureau etc have proven there’s still money in it, and obviously it’ll drive sales of the AES+ too.

I’ll bet you a pint at HoG that it’s a pixel art game regardless of format.

Well that's a bit of a different line. I'm hopeful for pixel art.

My book:

Pixel art 3/5
Any Neo Geo cart 2/1
AES+ exclusive 20/1
