No, it's not Contra III. Yes, it's the Japanese Contra once again, but ported to the SNES. Click "Show More" for... well, more info!
Do you know a guy called @infidelity_nes? Well, he's a well known game modder, and lately he's been doing ports of NES games to the Super Nintendo. How? Don't ask me, but him!
So, as stated before, this is the SNES port of Contra (the JP/Famicom version) and let me tell you, this port is AWESOME! Sure, the game is in its original language, but that should not be an obstacle to play it. In fact, this SNES port has added more stuff that you will not want to go back to the original Famicom game.
Such as:
- The option to choose between different soundtracks (original, arcade, "movie" or "rock"), thanks to the MSU-1 enhancement.
- The ability to carry TWO weapons, like in Contra III.
- The ability to "moonwalk" AND shoot diagonally by holding the L button.
So... Yeah, once again I played this game. No Konami code and all that. ALMOST a perfect run but... Oh well...
So, how to get it? Well, about that...
You can get the game from the link that is present in Infidelity's Twitter/X account, @infidelity_nes
But since this is an MSU-1 enhanced game, you WILL need to get an emulator compatible with that enhancement (like bsnes or Mesen2, IIRC). Shouldn't be that hard, eh?
Anyway, see you guys soon!
