Not sure if I just missed this or if no one's bothered talking about it. If already known, lock 'er up!

When the Anthology was announced, it was only going to carry 1-5 and X, but now 6 is included as well.

Also, according to Game Informer, there will be online co-op play for the Anthology. Now, we all know that there will be no launch titles with Wi-Fi play, but at the same time, the cover art for Downhill Jam shows the Wi-Fi logo. Possible that online is in there, just not available for use yet (could be WiiConnect24 usage, who knows). Also, Metal Slug is no longer a confirmed launch title, from what I recall, lending more credence to the possibility of this being a Q1 release with Wi-Fi out of the box.

Your missing out on some of the best 2d action around (sadly). God bless SNK for keeping it 2d and not releasing that 3d piece of shit over hear.

Let's hope they improve the box art if they delay it.

I noticed mention of the inclusion of MS6 on EBgames.com a few days ago and ended up pre-ordering it yesterday. Hopefully it won't be delayed.

I dunno, online co-op might be worth a delay. Mmmmmm.
