Depend the difficulty you played i think

Stage 5 is free.
The only difficult part of any no miss / 1CC is stage 4 boss and don't get bored while playing.

The slow motion due to frame drop (Lots action in screen) We call this a ''GOD GIFT'' in Shmup gaming !!

To my memory, when I had complete metal slug 3 on xbox360 arcade it was much better!! ho and besides that of the classic 1CC, the hardest achievement was to complete each level without dying so above all, stage 5!! which I personally find insane, max non-stop action...action 100% HELL Yeah!

@Tromboncino It means that during some parts of the game where theres alot of explosions or enemies the game will feel like its in slow motion for a couple of seconds

The game "lags" during certain parts, the port is missing more than 90%

Compare stage 1 and bosses with mame / pcb
