February 2010. Four years after it’s release, Metal Slug 6 is finally available for PC!
Metal Slug Complete PC is game pack consisting of 7 games: metal slug 1, 2, x, 3, 4, 5 and 6. While some of them were available on pc since last year, they didn’t get much attention, as it was a Korean-only release, and included just the first 4 games.
Metal Slug 4 and 5 are nice addition, but they were available for the pc through various emulators, NeoRageX and MAME being the most popular choice. It can be even played online with Winkawaks emulator. Story of Metal Slug 6 is a bit different; the arcade version was released for the Sammy Atomiswave arcade platform instead of Neo-Geo platform in 2006. PS2 port came in late 2006 with additional features, like sound and art galeries and combat school. Later, it came out as a part of Metal Slug Anthology for Wii, PS2 and PSP.
So it cannot be emulated at all? Not quite, as Metal Slug 6 is playable on ps2 emulator, although random freezing, framerate dropping and other glitches prevent it from being perfectly emulated. Constant development of Dolphin emulator for the Wii version sure looks promising. Atomiswave arcade platform emulation is in early development and currently supported under MAME emulator as the Metal Slug 6 rom was dumped at the end of the January 2011.
Don’t even think about PSP emulation 
Sure, Metal Slug 6 for consoles have more extras, but is PC version not enough? On Default, it runs at 800×600 resolution @30fps, without framedrops, but without any graphic options, either. There are minor glitches with shadows, but that is easily overlooked. The problem lies with saving the progress, as the saving is similar to “save states”, type of instant save games, enabling players to save and load at any time, which is broken, and makes saving progress temporal. Other options include setting the sound volume and music library. The game itself comes with few extra settings, most of them depend on your save game which sucks as you have to beat the game on hard to unlock most things, and that is not an easy task, and you can’t make a permanent save…
Some of this games can be bought online separately, at gamesload.de

On 12.04.2010, Reloaded released an official Scene release, it differs from this one in few things :
It has to be cracked to run, as it requires activation, and more importantly, it has a manual in 5 languages… which… only covered the basis controls, featured some screenshots and is only 3 pages long… :
Adjusting the Display Mode for Metal Slug Complete PC
====================================
You can play Metal Slug Complete PC in Window Mode or in different
full screen resolutions by adding the following command line arguments
when you run Metal Slug PC:
-W1: Run Metal Slug PC in a standard size window Window Mode
-R640: Run Metal Slug PC in Full Screen Mode in 640X480 resolution
-R800: Run Metal Slug PC in Full Screen Mode in 800X600 resolution
-R1024: Run Metal Slug PC in Full Screen Mode with 1024X768 resolution
-R1280: Run Metal Slug PC in Full Screen Mode with 1280X1024 resolution
The easiest way to add command line arguments is to create a shortcut
to the Metal Slug PC Program, then right mouse click on the shortcut,
and add the command line argument at the end of the “Target” field.
For example add “-W1″ (without quotes) at the end of the command to run
in window mode.
Matt Berg says:
I’ve discovered that you’re wrong. Those numbers for the resolutions are the vertical values, not the horizontal ones. Aka -R800 will put the game in 1024×800 and -R1024 will make the screen 1280×1024 (this is the same as TV resolutions. 1080P = 1600×1080 or whatever).
Also, setting -W1 is a terrible way to make it windowed. That makes it windowed with the lowest possible resolution the game can put itself in. Try -W1024 or -W800 instead.
Serial : there are at least 3 confirmed releases of this game: the original release (came out without the manual, no serial, no crack needed), the Reloaded release(has manuals, has to be cracked) and the others are the rips of the two which for some reason require a serial. So, get yourself the reloaded release and follow the installation instructions.

#9 @lemonediscream
About the speed problem / the game running too fast!
I solved it by mounting the game with WinMount instead of Daemon Tools Advanced! Yes it sounds weird, but that did the trick!
I need the CD Key, can anyone show me where to find it?
StojanMK I m having the same problem :( I wanna play it too much but I cant. Are there any crack? in files, there is a crack but it need a cd key
no cd key or download links here, move along :D
@ ankit : try out the numbers on the keyboard, i think the 1 and 2 are for p1/p2 start and 3 and 4 are for the coins
@ lemonediscream : i have no clue about that :^)
i want the cd key also T.T
can i hv a cd key
please tell me how to play metal slug on pc as it asks for insert coin. i m not able to play as i have no cd key i have downloaded metal slug from net.
great
Where is the download button or link?
MS 1-5 is very fast and I can’t play it
Thank You Medo !
It was the version (I had TPTB cracked ver.), now I downloaded another ver.(also cracked) and it work fine (maybe controls are broken in MS 5; in MS6 are good).
Thanx again.
Try updating to service pack 3, then reinstalling directx, and if you haven’t tried it yet, try to run Reloaded version (if you are running Reloaded version, try the version released before, that doesn’t require cracking)
When I try to run game, all I get is message in small window:
module init error
My configuration is :
Athlon 1800+
512 MB ram
80 GB hard drive
GeForce 5200 FX 128 M ram
Win XP Pro. SP 2
Please HELP !
tested 2 players on keyboard + gamepad, works fine; game won’t let you set 2 players on the same keyboard though. i suppose it would run fine with two gamepads, too… (or two keyboards?)
Hey I have the same problem as EX… i can’t manage to play 2 players as the controls keep overwriting themselves… really annoying if anyone knows how to do it please give a head up!
does anyone know how to play this 2 player,for some reason when i try to put the controls for player 1 they go player 2′s as well and the opposite as well
Damn…I was hoping to get them all on one program! Back to NeoRAGE…
My bad, metal slug 5 and 6 are playable without credits, and the rest is 4 lives x 4 credits max, but you can save and reload :P Or even better, play it on NeorageX, as this release is interesting mostly for the 6th part, being finally playable on the PC
Really? every time I start, it always gives me 5 credits and thats it…
You don’t have to, as the game lets you continue indefinitely without credits
Maybe I am dense, but how do you add credits to this?
