Cool line up. Good too see GBA Metal Slug there. It's nice to see SNK becoming a little more noticed, cause they are a talented bunch, and have been for years, but only to the hardcore and the japanese.

Capcom have similar ideas. I know they have Megaman Anniversary Collection (with 8-10 previous Megaman games), and Hyper SF Collection which is a good start.
I still however want some other collections, the shoot em up collection (Area 88, SideArms, Forgotten Worlds and Mercs),or the beat em up collection (Captain Commando, Red Earth, Cyberbots and Dungeons and Dragons). Just a thought that makes sense, lot's of folk still play these via emulators like Final Burn anyway, so Capcom could still take some money for them.

I guess Xbox owners will be gutted if they get MS 3, but not 4 or 5. Fingers crossed..sorry fingers x'd, xbox owners.
