Nazca shipped the first Metal Slug on the MVS in 1996, and SNK kept the series on the same board through Metal Slug 5 in 2003. That is why the whole run is here: every entry is a Neo Geo cart the engine already runs.
Start with mslug3.zip or mslugx.zip and drop neogeo.zip in the same batch. Each game lands as its own CIA with its own HOME menu icon.
