Cheats, Tricks and Bugs

If you push the A and B buttons while in one of the Slugs or vehicles, you will activate the "Metal Slug Attack". Your player will evacuate the vehicle which will activate it to ram into enemy attack and cause total massive explosions and maximum destruction.

Conversion

This game can be easily interchangeable with other MVS System Neo Geo cartridges.

Game Introduction

Throughout the game there are several weapons that you can pick up: the Heavy Machine Gun, Shot Gun, Rocket Launcher, Flame Shot, Laser Shot, Flame Bottles, and Armor Piercer. There are also four different vehicles or Slugs (Metal Slug, Slug Flyer, Camel Slug, and SlugNoid) found throughout the game that you can hop into and cause awesome destruction against Morden's evil army. Other items such as energy, extra ammunition, and food (eat too much and your player will gain weight) are also found throughout the game. This game has over five levels with overwhelming graphics and sound with massive explosions and destruction.

VAPS Arcade Census

GAMES OWNED, WANTED, or FOR SALE BY MEMBERS OF THE VIDEO ARCADE PRESERVATION SOCIETY

Very Common - There are 125 known instances of Metal Slug 2 owned by one of our 900 members. Of these, It is an original dedicated machine., 2 of them are conversions in which game circuit boards (and possibly cabinet graphics) have been placed in (and on) another game cabinet, and 122 of them are only circuit boards which a collector could put into a generic case if desired.

Of the 57,098 video games (3,420 unique) tracked by the Video Game Preservation Society, this game ranks a 36 on a scale out of 100 (100 = most commonly seen, 1=least common) in popularity based on ownership records.

Wanted - We currently do not know of any VAPS members that have gotten around to adding this game to their wish list. The wish-list system is fairly new (not all VAPS members have filled one out) and there are probably a number of collectors who might purchase this game if offered one at the right price. There is one VAPS member looking for a Metal Slug 2 circuit board set.

For Sale - There is one VAPS member with an extra Metal Slug 2 circuit board for sale. VAPS members are totally independent of VAPS and the International Arcade Museum, and we are unable to recommend, endorce, or guarantee any person or company selling games or game parts.

Rarity is NOT necessarily an indication of value. Some common games show up as very rare here because collectors don't want them (they are common because arcade operators might be sitting on tons of them in warehouses), while some fairly scarce games are grabbed by collectors every time they show up. Additionally, some games made in the last 5 years are still making money for operators and are thus not yet affordable to the typical collector. For a clue to value, compare how many people have this game vs. how many people want this game and then click on the eBay links to help determine an accurate price range.
