I. Introduction [NTR]
===============================================================================
Metal Slug X is a sidescrolling action game similar to the late action
games. You now start the game by selecting 1 of the four main characters,
Marco Rossi, Eri Kasamoto, Tarma Roving, and Fiolina Germi. It does'nt matter
which one you choose because all of them does'nt have any special abilities
that can enhance your gameplay, the only difference is their sprite.
This item list FAQ will guide you everything about the items that can be
found in the game.

VI. Tips [TPS]
===============================================================================
- Shooting a soldier with your pistol will give you 100 points but, stabbing
them with a knife can score 500 points.
- A pack of banana breaks into three if it hits the ground. With perfect
timing, sometimes you can still get 100 ponits even if it hits the ground
plus 10 to 30 points for the single bananas.
- Kill the mummies by crawling below them and attack them in close range, you
will not get hit by the purple smoke and it will save your ammunition. Don't
do this if the mummy spits flies.
- Picking up the Magic Lamp will give you 10 points. Waiting for the genie will
give you several coins.
- Picking a weapon while in Mummy condition won't have any effect thus, it will
give you 1000 points.
- At the start of Mission 3, you will see a soldier on a chair and is relaxing,
kill this soldier and stab him repeatedly to make it drop an item.
- While fighting the Sub-Boss in Mission 3, you can acquire weapons by waiting
a tank to fall. While the tank is in mid-air, throw a grenade. Weapons rarely
appear.
- After defeating the Sub-Boss in Mission 3, it will land for a moment, jump
at the center for an initial points when the coins are appearing.
- Gas can refill a slug's energy meter. When using a slug, no points are given,
1000 points are given if not riding on a slug, and if a slug's energy meter
is full, no effect and score will occur.
- To acquire the items inside the parachute in Mission 6, after the first two
parachutes with items landed, the third parachute will land with soldiers on
it. Quickly jump at the third parachute up to the second platform. Killing
the soldiers will automatically move your character to the final boss.
