Hellas, I just read the review over at IGN.

It has 7 solid games on it, no bonuses worth to mention, and crappy control, I hope the PAL-Release gets Classic Controller and Cube Digi Pad support.

I've heard the controls aren't that bad at all actually, and you can choose between several schemes.

I don't know, but I plan on picking this up myself here pretty soon.

I don't know about the game, but someone on GameFAQs misspelled it as Metal Slug Anthropology. Hilarity ensued.

It would be as corny as "Duke nukem teaches typing". xD

...I never played any of the metal slug games, though I actually seen a arcade unit once. And this package seems worth it if I could obtain it cheaply, and I guess the gamecube control is probably the best one. :/

I'm a big Metal Slug fan. Was going to get this at launch... But they delayed it. Two or three times. Then, now that it's out, none of the stores here have it. *sigh* I should have it soon, though. Ordered through Amazon.

Edit: Scratch that last, my dad found it in Norman. Cancelled the Amazon order. I'll either have it later today or in three days (depending on if he pulls the "wait 'til Christmas" stuff

Edit again: Yeah, got it, played through Metal Slug and Metal Slug 2 already. Most of the control schemes are pretty useless... "Nunchuk Control Stick" mode works fine, though. The default "Wii Remote" scheme worked pretty well too, but using the d-pad for Metal Slug just didn't feel right for me. Haven't tried the Gamecube controller yet. I did note that, unlike the various Wii controller schemes, you can change which buttons do what with the Gamecube controller.
