Rumor: Contra 4 releasing Nov. 13

by Alexander Sliwinski { Oct 5th 2007 at 3:23PM }

A NeoGAF poster has put up the alleged sell sheet for Konami's Contra 4 showing a Nov. 13 release date. From what we've seen, Contra 4 plays like a classic Contra experience, which for fans of the franchise would be a good thing.

We've contacted Konami to find out if they can verify the date. Of course, it wouldn't be Contra without two player co-op which the sell sheet says is a feature. Now we just have to wait until Nov. 13 to see if the "Konami code" is in there as well.

I wonder in they left the Konami code in?

well, they took the code out since Contra 2 or Super C, so there's nothing to leave in, as is to put back in.

Nice to see another Contra flick. That series is truly a pun of a blast

A Contra without a Konami code is a Christmas without presents.

POINTLESS.

SWEET! Old school Contra action...just what this series need. Incidentally, what does Konomi consider the last 30 shitfest? Flukes?

hmm the fire gun appears to be not the beloved flamethrower from Super Contra, but the fireballs that go in circles like in the first Contra. Drag

Bring this to XBLA with better graphics and MORE levels.

And PSN. I want my 1080p Contra! None of this DS 256 x 192 BS. I mean, man, look at that gallery, looks like we're back in Atari 2600 land.

I'm just hoping there's at least one day in November without a major game being released. This is going to be a very busy Thanksgiving, I must say.

Can't wait to play and hear the music in this game. The soundtrack should be amazing.

I believe they also list the Nov 13th date in the latest Nintendo Power, if I am correct.
I may have been completely drunk when I read it, though.

I'm voting you up for reading Nintendo Power drunk.

Why do you guys keep using NeoGAF as a source? They wordfiltered you guys! Called you liars! They will permaban you for even thinking about praising MS!

I'll keep bitching until you guys find a credible source...
