Metal Slug 1 - 3 are the good ones right?

They are very similar, MS4 and 5 are also very similar but MS2 and 3 have the most creativity and enemy variety IMO. None of them mechanically differ aside from some different Slug vehicle sections. I like MSX (2 Deluxe) and 3 the most because they do the Contra thing of getting real weird with it down the stretch, if you're gonna get one 3 or 2/X are solid.

yep, 1, 2, X, and 3 are the ones to get. 3 gets unreasonably difficult by the end so if you're into 1CCs start with an earlier entry

Fortunately it looks like my daughter has taken a turn for the worse and has a pretty bad case of pneumonia or something (she's at the doctor now) so she's sleeping with Mrs SuperNintendoUser meaning I'm relegated to the couch in the den which happens to also be near the big tv.

Doctor said she has Asthma and it's being triggered by seasonal allergies so they prescribed her some inhalers. Their super expensive, though, the course is like $100. I'm going to jump off my roof with a bed sheet as a parachute and pull them out of my pocket real quick and see if I can get some for free.

Don't know if it's any fun to play but Genji and Heike Clans looks awesome

Also yeah that Valkyrie game is hella cool, just played a bit. As with most arcade games it's much better in motion and the controls feel great

Duping is pretty easy in this game. There's several ways, but the one I've got working very consistently is as follows. (Read at your own risk. You will be forever changed.) Do a shield surf while running forward. During the flip animation, enter your inventory and hold any items you want to dupe up to 5. Then press Y and B at the same time. You'll drop duplicates of all the items. Do this into a pool of water to avoid losing shield durability, and also so that bomb flowers don't explode on you.

The paraglider method appears to be very similar.

Thank you for this! I don’t feel like this ruins anything cause I’m not struggling with combat, so not worrying about stupid consumables is awesome.

I've played Genji - it's janky but it has a certain charm to it. It was very popular in Japan but never released here except for a PC-Engine port titled Samurai Ghost, which just had the side-scrolling levels.
