1996 was a heck of a year for video games. Sony's Playstation became the best-selling console for the first time, Nintendo released the smaller, lighter Game Boy Pocket, Sega opened the first SegaWorld park outside of Japan, and new titles like Crash Bandicoot, Pokémon, Resident Evil, Dead or Alive, Quake, and Tomb Raider hit stores for the first time. Among all that, SNK released a run-and-gun to arcades that launched its own franchise, the very first Metal Slug.
