Wii's 5 different ways to Metal Slug

Metal Slug

Call it a bonus, call it a gimmick, but we're bound to see Wii games getting packed with wacky control schemes. First up Metal Slug Anthology, promising five nontraditional schemes in addition to GameCube controller support. We suppose it'll add some replay value, but some of these just look like annoyances:

  • "Nunchuk Control Stick" - movement and fire controlled with Nunchuk; grenades tossed by flicking Wiimote

  • "Tilt Wii Remote" - tilts control movement; d-pad "up" to jump (no nunchuk attached)

  • "Wii Remote" - classic controls; flick to toss grenades (no nunchuk attached)

  • "Arcade" - hold Wiimote vertical against surface (emulates joystick); nunchuk fires and jumps (flick it for grenades)

  • "Nunchuk Only" - Nunchuk controls all (except weapon switch and alternate attack)
