About this product
Product Information
Metal Slug Advance brings back the classic side-scrolling shooter from SNK in an installment for the Nintendo Game Boy Advance (GBA). Released in 2004, the game is considered part of the canon for the Metal Slug series and continues on with the missions of earlier games, including those created for the Neo Geo and other game systems. The game opens at a survival camp, where several new recruits are training with the mission of joining the Peregrine Falcon squad. Not long after the recruits arrive, a blimp appears above the island, and General Morden’s troops parachute down with the intention of establishing a new base. They capture many of the recruits, leaving just a handful to fight their way through enemy lines and prevent the island from being taken over completely. Metal Slug Advance for GBA is the only one of the Metal Slug games that doesn’t feature Marco Rossi as a playable character. Instead, you have the option to play as either Walter Ryan or Tyra Elson as they face down General Morden’s men. Guide your chosen recruit through a crash course on survival, and prevent the island from falling into General Morden’s hands. You’ll have to evade capture, invade enemy camps, and scout for weapons and food to replenish your supplies and ensure the possibility of completing your mission. The GBA game plays much the same way as previous Metal Slug games, although there are now two new systems. Instead of having extra lives, characters now come with a life bar, which depletes as they take damage from enemies. Health can be replenished by collecting food items throughout the game. The card system gives players additional information and even boosts, depending on the type of card collected. You can get cards by completing certain missions, such as by freeing hostages or by shooting parts of the background. Certain cards enhance your abilities or unlocked special slugs, giving you an additional boost. If you’re working toward a confrontation with the final boss, your mission is to collect all 100 cards—a monumental task in itself. Run-and-gun your way through several missions on your GBA, and collect new unlockables while defeating your enemies. There are five total mega-missions scattered over exciting new environments, including limestone caverns and rivers of lava, with plenty of enemies to fight in each level. By rescuing hostages and other affiliates located throughout the game, you can unlock mini-missions, giving you hours of additional gameplay. Fans of the previous Metal Slug games are sure to find something to love in this Game Boy Advance version. The side-scrolling adventure is packed with action, and you’ll recognize the vehicles available to your characters, which include the Metal Slug and the Slug Gunner. There are also two new vehicles: the Slug Type-R, which fires a vulcan gun in tandem with the direction your character is facing, and the Black Hound Slug, which is equipped with a bazooka. Both can be unlocked as you advance through the game. For fans of the Metal Slug series or of side-scrolling shooting games in general, Metal Slug Advance for Game Boy Advance will provide hours of play. New characters, a strategic card collecting system, and new items to unlock give this classic a breath of fresh air.

- m***4 (1)- Feedback left by buyer.Past monthVerified purchaseI’m very happy with my purchase! This seller was amazing and very thorough. Their communication skills made this process very easy, and the item was exactly as described and packaged well so that it would not get damaged. Shipping was quick, and the seller also tried their hardest to meet the date range I needed for delivery, but of course, it is out of the seller's control when the package actually gets delivered. 10/10 experience overall.
- l***h (245)- Feedback left by buyer.Past monthVerified purchaseExcellent transaction from start to finish! Item arrived exactly as described, well-packaged, and in perfect condition. Super fast shipping and great communication. Very pleased with the entire experience—highly recommend this seller. A+++ Will definitely do business again. Thanks so much for a smooth, professional transaction. Five stars across the board. Great service, quality item, and quick delivery! Great value!
- u***t (117)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseThe item itself was brand new and unopened as advertised. It was an old model and didn’t work new out of the box. When I messaged the seller they responded almost immediately. We messaged back and forth a couple times and they issued a refund within minutes. I am impressed and will happily buy from again. It was clearly not the seller’s fault that the unit was bad as it was new and still fully sealed in the clamshell packaging. Thank you for understanding and so quickly handling it.
