Official word came across the wire today - SNK is releasing SNK vs Capcom Card Fighters for the DS (and in the US, too!). This has been long overdue, but better late than never! From the images I've seen (brace yourself for an IGN link), this is a totally new entry in the series. The company also announced, very curiously, that they'll be bringing a Metal Slug anthology to Wii, using the controller in "a new and unique way that enhances the gameplay." - so says Ben Herman...guess we'll see, but I can't personally think of anything but a SCUD The Disposable Assassin-like interface. This will apparently be a "full arcade collection, containing many surprises." Does that mean Metal Slug 1, 2, X, 3, 4, 5 and 6 all together? How many times have I bought these games, now? But who are we kidding...a bunch of us will probably do it again.
