Games Asylum: “In all my years of gaming, Ive rarely heard a bad word about Contra Konamis 1987 hard but fair run n gun shooter. Its the game that often headlines dubious NES-based plug n play consoles, no doubt much to Konamis infuriation. Even today, when a new run n gun game is announced its usually compared to either Contra or Metal Slug, and thats despite the series being stuck in a rut for a decade or so. The task of making Contra great again has been put upon WayForward, creators of Contra 4 for Nintendo DS, and its pleasing to see Konami hand off the franchise to a studio with experience.”
