I hope Colonel Salamander is an actual boss and just not a story element. Salamander Rebirth... Castlevania Rebirth. Keep 'em coming Konami!

I searched the most recent info I could find... All I got was 'Release Date: TBA' unfortunately.

That's too bad, I'm really psyched for this. I've been jonesing for some new Contra action

No... I played by myself. Besides, why play Contra with someone else? All they are going to do is jump up and steal your spread shot. Bastards.
Because it makes no attempt to be great, it is therefore extremely great.

QFT.
2P Contra leads to Spread shot greed
Greed leads to Anger
Anger leads to Violence
and Violence leads to a spread shot stealing whore getting jabbed in the throat.
My neck still hurts...
House rules of alternating power-ups or right of way to the shooter, while well intentioned, simply do not work. The temptation of Spread Shot is too strong.

Awesome, it's about time. I need a Contra fix.
Only soup.
Also, lol @ sort-of Lance Bean, sort-of Tiger Tanaka (aka Genbei Yagyu) standing halfway off that ledge in the GamePro screenshot. Game still looks nice, though I think we'll need to see it in motion. I had started to think the game looked very nice after seeing some movies of it, but these screens are leading me back towards my initial impression. (None of this is terribly important of course; it's the gameplay that counts.)
The story seems rather interesting; it's good to see they're paying some mind to the US NES translation with the 1973 date.
Also, new Sparkster please.
Tell it like it is Ken!
Back to the topic, this game looks very interesting indeed. I just picked up the original Contra to match my Super C I picked up a while back, and I find both pretty fun, I wonder how faithful this will be to the series?
Just downloaded it and played a few levels.
2D Contra fans rejoice!
It's brutally hard and it's awesome.
The graphics are a great tribute to the 16 bit era Contra games, the level bosses are cleverly designed, and the gameplay is silky smooth (though I can't understand why Konami would think that people using the Wiimote would want the "fix" button to activate AUTOMATICALLY by default in the default controller settings. I LITERALLY thought something was wrong with my controller ... experienced Contra players will want to assign the "fix" to a button immediately in the options settings if using the Wiimote as a controller).
I'm not sure how long the game is, but even if it is short, this is a great reason to drop $10 on the Wii online store.
It's been a while since there have been two great Contra games in a row (Contra 4 on DS and this) ... Konami typically insists on trying some type of top-down garbage in-between entries ... hopefully they've learned their lessons once and for all. This is the only way to go with Contra!
Spread gun and Homing missiles FTW!

It's out?
I'm buying this tonight.

Frankie is the co-op online or local split screen only? The article I linked a page ago didn't elaborate enough on this.

Is there a Castlevania Rebirth coming? I know Salamander Rebirth was announced, but is that it?
Selling gaming accessories. Click
No online co-op.
"And the book says: 'We may be through with the past, but the past ain't through with us.'"
Lmao. WHAT??No online co-op.
That just don't seem right.
Maybe to the one that got hit by the ugly stick - Contra HC. Glad to hear you think it plays well though.
Hey, what's wrong with the graphics in Contra HC? That's one of my favorites.
Contra games have always had very awkward looking character models and run cycles, this one is no different.
Rebirth is much slicker looking & colorful than recent entries, not sure where it draws that design element from but it's a welcome update.

This is the Wii, remember?
