How do you get into this series?
Metal Slug 1-5 is pretty straightforward, you can just use an arcade emulator such as FinalBurn Neo, but Metal Slug 6 and 7 has been a bit of a pain.
The original MS6 on Atomiswave can only be emulated by Flycast, but my results were terrible. Sprites get corrupted all the time and I'm not sure if it's possible to fix this by tinkering with the settings.
MS7 is native to the DS inb4 not retro with a following enchanted port to the PSP... and it has input delay, what the hell? Press a button way too fast and it might not even register.
And this apparently is a recurring problem with many ports, the Metal Slug Anthology seems like it would be a legal and ideal solution, but guess what? Input delay.

There's unironically no reason to play the series beyond X and 3 though. It just became Metal Slop after that.

Maybe just try emulating MS6 like a normal fucking person and not a third world shitskin piece of fuck. You CAN emulate Dreamcast on your third world laptop right?

You play MS1-5 and stop there. Maybe play the Neogeo Pocket games.Everything after those were various levels of junk. But, you can play MS6 and MS3D on the Playstation 2, MS Advance on the GBA, and ... I kind of stopped caring about the series after that, I think the DS had MS7 but I'm not sure, and there was a MS XX too at some point, then you have a shitload of gachas or tower defense games (their only good points is that they actually cared about the game storyline and design artworks, so they are not that much of a bastard titles), and the recent MS Tactics.
