Contra 4 is the first entry in the series developed by a US studio -WayForward Technologies- and functions as a direct sequel to Super Nintendo's Contra III: The Alien Wars, with the same spirit of shooting nonstop against impossible waves of enemies while dodging bullets all over the screen. It uses DS's two screens to expand the field of view without losing the brutal difficulty that has defined the series since the '80s; two decades after its release, it remains one of the must-play references of classic run and gun on the console.
