Think the redraws took away too much character?

A quick search says this was Metal Slug Code: J, a mobile game.

    Nerd powers activate… (And yes, the redraws are really quite ridiculous. But tiddies sell microtransactions, I guess.)

    As a side note, I never quite understood why Fio is wearing glasses in the Metal Gear 2 character select screen except, possibly, so the artists could have this gag where they shatter for a quick freeze-frame when you select her:

    Because she definitely is not wearing glasses during gameplay, visible even when her face turns towards the camera during her reload animation:

    Yes, Metal Slug has reload animations. Metal Slug has animations for everything.

      Of course she doesn’t wear them. You just smashed them.
