"The BEST game on the DS!"
5 stars"

I absolutely love this game!

It is the best 2-D platformer on the DS (the other top contenders being 'New Super Mario Bros’, 'Henry Hatsworth’, 'DK Jungle Climber’ and 'Commando – Steel Disaster’), and the best game hands-down for the DS.

It's quite unforgiving to the beginner – one hit and you've lost a whole life. It takes a bit of practice to get good, but once you do, you'll be hooked.

The graphics are perfect, sound is perfect, and gameplay almost brings tears to the eyes.

It uses the two screens of the DS as though they are one (like ‘DK Jungle Climber’) – you'll be going from one to the other during play. Not switching screens and gameplay (like in ‘Henry Hatsworth’), but jumping/climbin­g/falling between them seamlessly as you battle the constant onslaught.

Awesome, awesome, awesome…

Description

The action franchise that started it all is celebrating its 20th anniversary with an all-new adventure on Nintendo DS! Set after the events of Contra III: Alien Wars, the game follows mercenaries Bill Rizer and Lance Bean as they battle to save the world from a new extraterrestrial threat. Contra 4 takes advantage of the dual screens of the Nintendo DS to deliver larger than life action, with massive enemies, detailed platform gaming and mind-blowing set pieces. Using a variety of upgradable weapons, take the fight to the alien army of the Black Viper and reclaim Earth for mankind in single-player action or 2-player co-op mode.

Features:
  • Fast-paced 2D side-scrolling action from the franchise that defined the genre
  • Collect multiple power-ups to create new and explosive weapon combinations
  • Unique dual-screen presentation allows for frantic action and massive boss encounters
  • New grappling hook accessory lets you access hard to reach areas and dodge enemies
  • 2-player cooperative action lets you take on the enemy with twice the firepower
