Same people that made metal slug, just look at those sprites are insanely well made, the level of detail in this game is beatiful
rallceu never really was a fan of this artist style. For me it is a bit to detail cluttered. That said it is a distinct style that is original to a lot of others games that looked the same. That I have to give him even if it’s not my cup of tea :)
Was just about to say that it looks like the same ones who did metal slug.
rall - actually, the Gun Force 2 or Geostorm run n' gun game is what inspired the first Metal Slug to be made by Nazca in 1996.
No wonder it lookes like MS, I thought this game was rip off one
^ In the hunt came out before MS.
Should've called the game Metal Sub.
They couldn't be *that* on the nose.
Still some people didn't realized until these days...
I had a ps1 disc with that game that called it metal slug submarine
I didn't even doubt that it wasn't metal slug
@@tikazombie37 I don't blame you.
Thats redundant, theres no plastic or wooden submarines.
I remember buying this game for my pirated ps1, it had the title "Metal Slug 3". I was really excited because Metal Slug 3 hadn't yet arrived to the arcades in Mexico. When I ran the game for the first time and the main screen showed up I was totally disappointed, but then after playing a few minutes I got hooked on the gameplay and understood that I'd found a treasure.
Wow you are talking about more than 20 years ago. Time flies and make us look old in 2021.
Haha same here
lol igual a mi hoy en dia lo sigo jugando de vez en cuando en mame
People used to call it 'Metal Slug Submarine' where I live lmao
Piratear Playstation 1 era lo más normal en el México de aquellos años
Just like classic cartoons, sprites will always look stunning. 10, 30, 100 years after. You simply have to admire those microscopic details!
Heard of Kraut Buster, another Metal Slug ripoff game and next successor
Those days when the level of creativity of the dev team is just insane
The art work is not bound by 3D rendering and artist can do photoshop based art.
Those days will never come back unless GPT takes all over! Vintage games and retro stuff was Astronomical in 💡 ideas and creativity compared to nowdays stuff!
We gotta appreciate the amount of dedication put into this game.
Graphics are nothing short of art!!
I was 3-4 when I played this game , my dad thought me how to play and he played it with me and watched me played it . I requested his help on the bosses . It s one of my only memories with him as he died when I was 4. This video popped up on my feed and it made me happy as I now know which game we played together . When ever I played this he was always with me helping me .
Nearly 30 years and this classic never gets old! I still enjoy In the Hunt so much! I remember back in 99 it took me 30 credits to finish it...
The devs that made Metal Slug used to work for Irem and created this game alongside Gunforce 1 and 2. Gunforce plays almost exactly like Metal Slug. Irem declined in the 90s and the devs left and joined SNK later making the Metal Slug games that we love.
RIP IREM
Well at least Irem revived as Granzella in 2021. Waiting eagerly for R-Type Final 2!
@@NCC-0000 YES. I can't believe they are coming back from the dead. Would be nice if they find some of the old devs that made In the Hunt and Gunforce and made new games
Oh man, this game and gunforce series are unironically much better compared to MS series.
Looking at the current state on how SNK treat MS franchise these days while many of the original MS devs eventually left.....
@@user-jv6ox5gb6v so true. what a shame so many amazing Japanese 90s devs are gone
Brought me memories about my childhood. Back when a simple videogame could make me happy.
Too bad I had to grow up.
growing up doesn't mean you can't enjoy a simple video game anymore. maybe look into that.
@@hypnos9336, I just don’t have any interest in videogames anymore.
@@jmac091176 that's too bad. I still enjoy them but it's not the same as when I was a kid. can't really help it, our brains change as we get older.
This game probably ate coins like pandas eat bamboo
I played this in ps1 but if i played it in arcades i would've spent enough for a ps4
@@GarkKahn Coincidence...It's available on PSN right now.
back then, i loved this game soo much i even went to play it spending like 25$ equal to coins just to finish it n one go lol and i did :D
Yeah, it did. SO damn hard.
How much money I have spent on this and metal slug I don't even remember. Nostalgic days
←m(__)m
Although there's a lot going on on the screen, everything is clearly distinguishable. Top notch visual design.
I was awestruck when I first saw this in an arcade with all the detail and stuff going on simultaneously. Also, what a performance, I don't want my 37 minutes back.
I remember that game. Good times. Metal Slug sends a hug.
They could make a rip-off and and a spin-off at a same time
Man this game is beautiful! Nautical games aren't a dime a dozen, and the Sunken Town level has some awesome visuals, and the Channel with all the buildings in the town blowing up...this is great stuff!
Yep - timeless pixel art visuals!
@@AL82RetrogamingLongplays All time favorite classic retro arcade games
oh man, a Metal Slug with submarines?! how have i not heard of this? it's absolutely bursting with that same spirit and aesthetic but with all the big vehicles it feels somehow even crunchier. in true Metal Slug style every new environment just kept upping the ante and had me like "holyyyyy fuuuuck ahahaha that ruuuules!"
also amazing playing, this action had me chewing on my nails faster than this thing chewed through coins
From what I know, this game comes out before Metal Slug, and some of the creator of this game, moved to SNK and they created Metal Slug later. IREM is a great company.
You should check out another Irem game called Gun Force 2 (the first game is more like a Turrican game), it's absolutely Metal Slug before Metal Slub
I agree, the next spinoff official games, in future prequels/sequels
13:20 Amazing destruction
23:45 gruesome
I used to have this on PC as a 6 year old... I was absolutely loving the game until this showed up... It was hard to find the ESC key with my eyes closed! 😂
En los tianguis de México: "Metal Slug 3: Misión Submarina"
Vaya no fui el unico estafado xD
XD que recuerdos
Jajaja cierto o sino te decían acabando lo de los submarinos siguen las misiones de tierra jajajaja
Y si hee, lo llegue a comprar
Jajajaja yasee bien ilusionado con mi metal slug 3xdd
R-Type meets the underwater world....great game,another gem from Irem,as usual! The music too vaguely reminds of R-Type.
R-Type is harder, though.
Way harder.
Part of IREM join Nazca, the same developers worked on R-Type, Gun Force, Gun Force 2 (Geostorm) Air Duel, Armed Police Unit Gallop, In the Hunt and the first 3 Metal Slug (also X).
A part was also involved in Last Resort (NeoGeo) and Pulstar (NeoGeo).
Who ever uploaded this game you have my thanks and respects!!!✌🏿✌🏿✌🏿✌🏿✌🏿 Because i saw and played this game way back in day and after i graduated from high school in the early 90's!!! And it's absolutely unbelievable that it still looks good even now on TH-cam!!!
I remember tryna buy Metal Slug 3 for Ps One but this game was what i would get everything haha childhood memories lol
The exact same for me!!!
Hahaha me too
Never ever heard of this game. And looks like a difficulty not suitable for me. Not something I'd play but I'm enjoying a lot watching.
How impressed I am by the graphics!
Omg i remember seeing this game ONCE at an arcade as a kid and was just blown away by how cool it looked
I came here to see all the comparisons to metal slug, and I was not disappointed.
Dang dude... so many amazing games came out that most of us missed and they're finally getting a second life with emulation and people getting their own cabinets.
Bruh. The late 80's and early 90's was THE heyday of the arcade. SO many great quarter munchers. Bring back 4-player Bmups.
@@Matrxmonky Oh absolutely, I was there, sadly i was also very poor so i got maybe 2-3 credits to play lol, most of my time in the arcade in those days consisted of watching other people play.
Been making up for lost time with my new cabinet :)
Beat em ups definitely take the show for me, as well as Shoot em ups. Though also some incredible action adventure style games like Willow to be played.
I had my cabinet done in Streets of Rage 1-4 art. It's a legacy cabinet of sorts. Streaming SoR4 onto it through steamlink is really amazing. We are getting more beatemups now thankfully. Dotemu has been KILLIN it lately.
@@EQOAnostalgia SoR is the bee's knees. Enjoy.
@@Matrxmonky No doubt, still my fav beat em up. Check out the cabinet on my channel. Came out nice.
@@EQOAnostalgia Wow, that LED on top is fuckin' sweet. Nice work, my guy!
Looks crazy hard. I don't remember this game. Beautifully rendered.
what a nice and interesting game. my nephew and i enjoyed it pretty much. thanks 4 uploading! 16.11.2019.
Glad you enjoyed it 🙂
Absolutely amazing and stunning, i wish i could play this when i was a kid. It really rocks!
Que belleza de juego. Me recuerda a Metal slug. Muchas gracias por el video. Hermoso!. 🖤
I'm in love with those details since my childhood
I remember I always play this with just one token whenever I go to the arcade, see how far I can go in the stages but I didnt really got good at it. I was 14 yrs old back then now I'm in my 40s🙂
24:54 The colossus in the background of the Seabed Ruins looks interesting
I'm here only because I watched a video of gun historian talking about weapons in the game Hunt: Showdown, but I am not disappointed. This is really beautiful.
I never knew this game existed it looks awesome
Never played this or ever seen it . But looks mint even today
WoW! I played this game exactly once in my lifetime at Times Square in NYC. Sometimes prior the year 2000.
gotta love how realistic and accurate in depicting naval warfare these subsims have become!
海底大戦争だぁ!アーケードでハマってPS1で買ったやつ。懐かしい!
でもPS版は移植度がそこまで高くない事に気づいてガッカリ…
Wow! Never saw this game before😃. Thank you for posting👍
In The Hunt deserves a remake, I called it “In The Hunt: Resurfaced”.
Looks class and yeah, the level of detail is just like the Metal Slug games.
Definitely going to check out thanks.
Always loved those super enormous multipart end bosses. UN Squadron had a good one as well.
Hello 👋🏻🙂 . Thank you for this sight 👏🏻🎯👌🏻. I was happy as in my childhood 😊.
I first saw this game in the late nineties. Then I just watched how others played it in the gaming club. But I managed to play a few years later.
This game needs to be remastered. And the continuation also needs to be done.
I love the amount of attention to detail in this game
アイレムのグラフィックは当時としては凄く高水準で見応えあったなあ。イメージファイトからファンでした。
The best "Metal Slug" Submarine game.
My dad and me played this together when i was 11 years old
What console is the game
@@Residentevilalex048 ps1, and arcades
Wow I played this game so much as a kid I just forget the name can't believe it just popped up lol
¡¡HA LLEGADO LA HORA DE CLASIFICAR OBJETIVAMENTE ESTÁ BAZOFIA!!
¡¡GRÁFICOS: PARA 1993 SON INMEJORABLES, 10 PUNTOS.!!
¡¡JUGABILIDAD: A PESAR DE QUE A VECES EL SUBMARINO ES MÁS LENTO QUE UN RIO DE W!3RD@, ESTÁ MUY BIEN MEDIDA, 9.5 !!
¡¡MÚSICA: QUIZÁS EL ÚNICO PUNTO DÉBIL DEL JUEGO, SI ES QUE UN OCHO, SE LE PUEDE DECIR "PUNTO DÉBIL", 8.0 !!
¡¡PRESENTACIÓN: 10 SÍ, NUEVAMENTE, PARA LA ÉPOCA, ERAN MUY BUENAS!!
¡¡TOTAL: 0 SOLO CERO!! ¡¡ES MAS, NI SIQUIERA CERO, NADA, MATERIA OSCURA!! ¡¡ESTE JUEGO NO SE LO MERECE Y NO SE LO RECOMIENDO A NADIE!! ¡¡SENTENCIA: AMPUTACIÓN!!
¡¡BUENAS NOCHES A TODOS!!
when i was a kiddo, this game looked SUPER fun, and it stil does now.
iremのゲーム画面は、綺麗で丁寧で楽しいね
you can tell this youtuber has commanded an actual submarine before.
I used to play this in the arcade but could never remember what it was called. Thanks for the upload, off to search my MAME emulator.
Excited for this to come to the Evercade console later this year, looks sick!
Use to play co-op with my neighbor... So fun
Wow this looks amazing. Too bad I missed this game back then.
You can play it on the emulator. It's worth it. I first saw it in the late nineties. But I played it on PS one in the early years of the two thousandth.
ah, yes, the creators of metal slug, overpowering gpus since 1993
I think this is metal slug submarine
@@As-rs1gg It's called Slug Marine
Parabéns...eu nunca tinha visto o final desse jogo; muito bom 👍coisa de doído 😜😜😜
DUDE, I didn't knew we had a Steel Diver prequel! AND METAL SLUG FUSED? *LET'S GOOOOO!!!*
one of my all time favorite games, I might have to plug in my ps1 again to play this now lol
Great! Crazy completed 👍👍
This look awesome! Why have I never heard of this until now?
こんなにドンパチしても沈まない潜水艦
航空戦力もなんのその
強すぎ
phenomenal all the way, and its sequel for ps2 is almost just as phenomenal, which is a very good thing!!!
This is really great-looking game.
R-type+Hunt for Red october = This.
The formula is simple but result is unique. And it's unique both in setting and gameplay.
I loved this game. It's a real shame they never made sequels.
There is a spiritual successor game called Sub Rebellion. Look it up!
Beautiful old school arcade game ! 👍
Why am I even watching this... so so mesmerising... 🙈😂🚀🚀🚀
I read sonewhere that the original concept for Metal Slug was going to be a lot more like this, with slugs being the main gameplay and no run and gun.

Irem likes to give detailed settings to its game stories, and this title is no exception. The submarine Granvia (Hydrophobia Grampus), which the player controls, is a legendary weapon that was converted into a submarine by capturing an alien spacecraft, and uses a memory element left behind by Martian natives as a control unit. This unknown weapon controls the mind of the passenger and transforms him or her into a dictatorial mindset that does not allow the existence of others, as mentioned above. This is also the reason why when the last boss is defeated in a two-player game, the players start killing each other.
Fascinating. Is there anywhere I can find more about In The Hunt's setting? I've always really enjoyed this game. I believe there is also art floating around of the bosses and enemies; do you know where I can find it? I have a copy of the one-volume manga made for the game, though sadly I cannot read it- it's different in many ways, still.

Until the early 90's, Irem published a newsletter called "Dragonfly" as an exclusive benefit for members. (I have never read it because I have never been a member)
It was said to contain detailed explanations about the game world, behind-the-scenes stories, and illustrations of the characters appearing in the games, and would have been a great item for learning more about Irem's games. I occasionally see them listed at auctions, but it's a shame that I can't get my hands on them because they are rare and expensive.
Incidentally, my recent comment about the Granvia's fearsome performance was taken from the Sega Saturn version's manual, but perhaps this description may have originally appeared in Dragonfly as well.
Then you mentioned that you have the In the hunt manga, perhaps it is the manga drawn by Masato Natsumoto (夏本雅人)? If so, I used to have it too, but it had little relevance to the game, and I felt uncomfortable with the main character getting off the Granvia at the end of the game and engaging in a fighting match with the enemy cadre.
Incidentally, the Granvia is boarded by the Takahara couple, who belong to the International Maritime Patrol, with the wife, Rei Takahara (高原麗), boarding the yellow Granvia F (Female) in the first player, and the husband, Jin Takahara (高原仁), boarding the blue Granvia M (Male) in the second player.
Incidentally, Jin is the brother of Takahara Zan (高原斬), who appeared in "Undercover Cops," and is himself a master of Koppo-jyutsu. He is a quiet character, but in the manga he is the main character and has become a rough and tumble character.
@@momihog Yes, it's the manga you're referring to, the one with little to do with the game.
Thank you for the information, still, it's great to learn even a little about the game and Irem.
My favorite arcade of all time!
This was one of the first games I played when I got my PS1.
Its not as perfect as I remember it, but I'd still want to play it for the nostalgia factor. Plus the level design is really something unique.
Great game.love playing it
I dunno why but I've always favored these graphics over the current advanced one we have today. Metal slug, final fight, super R type & samurai showdown were the best.
I bought this game 2nd hand for £3 as loved the boxart, lo behold a ps1 legend.
This game was sitting next to Mortal Kombat II in the bowling alley I used to frequent in '94 and got nearly as much attention.
I played this in PS1 ahhh good times.....
_I watched everything in 480p to feel the nostalgia to the maximum_
PS1 gameplay....this game was ground Breaking man what memories 👍👍🎬🎥🎞☺️
I had never heard of this game until now. I will have to find it in MAME and give it a try! Very nice. 👍
Is one of the better 2D games for PS1
I remember when in 2009 I seen that game for first and last time in front of my eyes
Very thanks by the 60 FPS , as I always wanted to watch
I have yet to see someone get past level 3 in the arcades. Nice :D
I LOVED this as a kid
❤it when I was kid so much
Can’t wait to play this on my Steam Deck :)
I remember playing that game in a friend's house many years ago. Only today I learned that this game had the same creator as Metal Slug.
I've just fired this up on Mame and it is so much like Metal Slug. Awesome graphics but so damn hard!
This game is awesome, it's like Silkworm, but instead of a Jeep or Helicopter, you're a submarine hybrid.
"What do you mean you were wiped out?! It's just one f**king submarine!!!"
Lmfaoooo!!!...picture the commander getting a sitrep lol
No conocía este juego, pero sí, es clavadísimo a Metal Slug. xD
Its a shame arcade companies don't release their back catalogues for the new generation of mobile and game consoles.
They did, it's called emulators.
But I see what you're saying because Sega and SNK have done it.
This game looks wild!
Its a great looking game
Cool gameplay!!! Respect!!
I replayed this game in my emulator, I knew this game was hard but man this one is another level of hard. Already used continue in the first stage.
That first stage... I wonder how many quarters it has consumed. That is one intense ramp up in difficulty!
You’re elite, dude.
You see the elements of Metal Slug before it was even released.
