When obtaining a new weapon power-up, it will automatically occupy the inactive slot, or, if both are holstered, replace the less recent weapon of the two. Players can switch between the two weapons, or simply put them both away in favor of the default weapon. Two gun power-ups can now be carried at the same time. Metal Slug 6 introduces a new play mechanic dubbed the ‘Weapon Stock System’.

Hopefully the expansion of the Dreamcast’s selection of games is about to rapidly increase and most of the games can be brought over, even those that require the lightgun would be welcomed! So with this, you’re in luck if you have Terraonion’s MODE device or the ever faithful GD Emu board in your console, where the game plays absolutely fine and is the most fun you’re likely to have with your Dreamcast in 2020.Īt the time of writing, the next Atomiswave game is 50% ported to the DC, we will sadly have to wait to see which title it is, some are hoping for Dolphin Blue – a similar side scrolling action game to Metal Slug, however, we’d love to see The Rumble Fish come over next. There is, however, a gotcha of sorts… Because the game was originally released as an arcade cartridge-like board, loading times are something that have become a stumbling block when trying to access the game via the optical drive, meaning at present the game crashes on the licenced by Sega screen and refusing to go any further, this may very well be a temporary issue – keeping in mind that Geist Force, the unreleased and discovered launched game was worked on extensively to get it running on a stock Dreamcast via the disc drive. What is presented here is a near on perfect arcade ‘conversion’ of the game, seeing as the Atomiswave hardware is very close to the Dreamcast stock unit albeit with a bump in video ram and audio quality.

So, how did this happen? Well, first we need to look at the Dreamcast-Talk forum, a user over there going by the handle Megavolt85 managed to achieve what others had only ever talked about, getting Atomiswave arcade titles to run on Dreamcast hardware. 2020 has been a year of many unusual happenings hasn’t it? The World is in turmoil with deadly viruses and weak leadership bringing the economy, health and well being to it’s knees, but shimmering away in the darkness is the Dreamcast, tail-ending perhaps one of the strongest years the console has seen in terms of software support and a couple of unreleased games making an appearance, never did we think that a game like Metal Slug 6 would land on the console.
