Thread's sort of derailed but I'll comment anyhow. Metal Slug series started going downhill after #1 or so - too many sequels.
IMO Metal Slug didn't start going "down hill" until Metal Slug 4. I was slightly dissapointed because it was too short and too easy

lain: . I should have Metal Slug 3, that's what I meant to say because to this day, I still can't beat the last boss even on easy.
Battlezone rocks though
It does

I was playing it a moment ago and made a new high score. And it was rather advanced for its time as an atari game (i.e. 3D depth calculations, bullet trajectory, 3D sound, shadows, etc.) It's probably the only 3D game on a simple 2D system I actually got addicted to
