ESRB rates Metal Slug 2, A Boy and His Blob
8
According to two new ESRB listings, camel-riding run-and-gun sensation Metal Slug 2 and the fabulous A Boy and His Blob: Trouble on Blobolonia will be coming to the Virtual Console at some point in the future. Either that, or they'll both hang around on that depressing list of games that get rated and never seem to come out. Feed your Blob a punch-flavored jelly bean to descend past the break and see some Metal Slug 2 footage!

Am I the only one slightly disappointed by Metal Slug games on WiiWare when there's that awesome Metal Slug Anthology. I mean, Anthology is good, and not badly ported like the Mega Man Anthology where it's practically worth the 5 bucks just to have someone fix the stupid backwards A and B buttons.
If someone did a Metal Slug HD. That'd be worth twice the cash.

SNK Playmore announced Metal Slug 7 for the Xbox Live Arcade. That may be the Metal Slug HD you crave...

i'll be honest. if a boy and his blob get stuck on that list of games that are rated and don't come out, i won't be depressed. i've played this game and frankly, it is one of the worst games i have ever played.

A Bob and his Blob comes to the VC but still no sign of Chip N' Dale Rescue Rangers, Ducktales or Super Star Wars games......SIGH!

I got Chip and Dale's Rescue Rangers for my birthday when it first came out. More imortantly, though, I got a MC Hammer tape.
@comtar - Those backwards buttons still taunt me.

Well, let's just hope Earthbound comes out before both of these games.
Also, does the ESRB have a ratings notification e-mail service or do people actually look through the ESRB ratings looking for new games everyday?

Boy and His Blob is begging to be made into a Bionic Commando Rearmed-style remake. Bring it to WiiWare. We need someone to set that precedent.
That game is fun, but ugly, is what I'm saying.

I remember likely a Boy and His Blob, but also being really frustrated with it. I think I may pick it up when it is released, just to finally beat the damn thing.
