Contra III on the NES. Wait, what?

Published by Robert at 7:35 pm under Videos

Contra III never saw a NES release and for good reason. It was released on the more powerful and arguably the best console of all-time, Super Nintendo. But thanks the powers of homebrew the heavens, it has been ported to the NES and hardware specs considered, looks great. The above video is from from the NES port, hit the jump to see the more familiar SNES version for comparison.

    So wait, it “never saw a NES release,” or it’s the “NES port”?

    Looks fun but not nearly as polished as the original or Super C. Still very impressive nonetheless.
