Critic reviews
- 8.0Without a doubt this is one of the most enjoyable arcade experiences on Nintendo Switch right now. Sure, it may be a classic and shunned by some purely on that basis, but the core gameplay of ACA NeoGeo: Metal Slug 3 has held strong over time, and proves to be just as addictive and challenging as it ever was...plus, it still looks mighty fine indeed. With the added benefit of other versions of the game included right from the off, a selection of control options, special extra challenge modes, and online leaderboards, the only thing that could top this is an anthology collection, similar to the one found on Wii years ago.
- 7.0At the end of the day, though, for fans of the genre this is tough to ignore. Whether playing on your own or with a buddy, it's sure to raise a smile and even a few laughs as you obliterate everything on screen.
- All in all, Metal Slug 3 is a great game to have on your Switch. It doesn't feature the best emulation, and the controller options could be clearer, but deep down it is a very solid game full of delicious, sweet eye candy. The ability to play on the go and on your TV seamlessly is definitely a plus, and the overall quirkiness of running and gunning your way through the game will be something you will never forget.
- Un arcade atemporal, tan divertido (y desafiante) como el primer día, que enriquece el catálogo inicial de Switch.
- 8.0A Neo Geo viu nascer séries icónicas, como Metal Slug ou The King of Fighters que marcaram de forma muito positiva a segunda metade da década de 90 nas arcadas. O potencial dos seus jogos chegarem a novas gerações não é tão vasto como os clássicos de uma Sega ou de uma Nintendo mas há traços que os tornam muito acarinhados por um mercado de jogadores mais dedicados.
