Hard to believe it but the fall is here and 2017 is already coming to a close! It's been another prolific year here in the lab, with releases for Far Cry Primal, Tom Clancy's the Division, Lost in Space, The Witcher 3, Dark Souls Trilogy and more. But hey, there are still three months left.. and we don't intend to waste them.
Get your game on with these titles, coming soon from SL9 - BORDERLANDS: Claptastic Voyage, RESIDENT EVIL: Vendetta, LOST IN SPACE: Complete John Williams Collection 4 LP Box Set, OUTLAST: Trilogy of Terror
Holy shit, this is awesome news!
(does a CTRL-F for "Gimmick" on bandcamp page...)
Nooooooooooooooooooo!
Limited to only 95 copies. what a joke why even press an amount that low of a variant.
Maybe it's just wishful thinking, but I'm hopeful this means it's getting a separate complete release.
Man, I hope so. That would be a win/win. Let's speculate on who would dive for that opportunity to license that... maybe Ship to Shore?
Holy shit, this is awesome news!

DATA013: METAL SLUG
We are thrilled to announce a new partnership with SNK Corporation. Over the past year, we have been working closely with the SNK team in Japan to develop an exclusive release for what is perhaps their most iconic franchise: METAL SLUG.
The vinyl release features the complete music from the first entry in the series (Metal Slug: Super Vehicle-001), composed by Takushi Hiyamuta in 1996. Working in collaboration with the SNK Sound Team, the audio was sourced from a NEOGEO development kit in Japan and then mastered at our in-house studio in London. The release is packaged in a gatefold sleeve with accompanying double-sided lithographic insert, featuring rare artwork from the Japanese archives and a special translucent OBI strip with fluorescent Pantone print. A download code for the digital album in both lossy and lossless formats will also be included.
This release is available in the following editions:
180g Tri-Colour Stripe with White Splatter (Limited Edition) - £20.99
180g Opaque Yellow - £19.99
180g Classic Black - £19.99
Available from SATURDAY 7th OCTOBER at data-discs.com
Note: this is a pre-order item. All copies will ship by the end of November.
Audio samples can be found HERE
Metal Slug from Data Discs this weekend.
New SNK partnership!? Ohh golly! This gon' be good- no, great!

The coolest thing about this release (Besides that hot semi-translucent OBI strip) is that it includes a digital download code! That's super neat, obviously SNK is open to that sort of thing.
I'll pass on Metal Slug, however I am really excited that in their newsletter, they also confirmed Space Harrier for 2018!!
metal slug could really use a boxset
WOO. Sooner than I expected, Brave Wave bringing the goods.
I've bought or sought out every DD release. But I genuinely don't care about Metal Slug as a series, nor do I care about any of the other SNK titles. So this might be where my numbered collection bites it. I knew they'd branch out eventually. Ah well.
I was close with that one. In hindsight I wish I had. Altered Beast sucks lolI dropped off back when Altered Beast was released. Feels liberating, lol.

Blasphemer! Haha, I love Altered Beast, and will defend it until the day I die. That Game Over theme is hot fire. And the artwork looks great on the sleeve.
I more meant as a game... I don't love the OST but it's not the worst. The package itself is nice looking, but I just have no nostalgia or love for that IP.

You have excellent taste! I fell in love with it when I first heard it on Red Bull's Digging in the Carts. It now means that I no longer have to buy Sega GMO vol. 1, unless I just want it for the cool-ass artwork:I have been most excited for Outrun and this since Data Discs started. Day 1 for sure
I already have vol. 2, but wouldn't complain of DD wanted to release Fantasy Zone as well!
