Contra 4!!!  Nearly everyone knows the original.  Did this prompt you to go out and buy this one?  I have a feeling that mostly people that bought this title bought it for that single reason.  What do you think of this game?  Discuss.

I bought this one basically on the day of release, and (surprisingly enough) it does a great deal of justice to the original.  I was extremely pleased that WayForward didn't hold back on the difficulty (even easy is fairly tough), nor did they attempt to 'improve' upon the Contra idea with new features and updated graphics and such.  For anyone who has doubts about this game...toss 'em.  There's nothing here but good, old-fashioned Contra.

I have heard nothing but good things about this game. Too bad I will probably never play it since it is on a DS.
