Konami today announced the return of Contra with Contra 4 (working title) for the Nintendo DS. One of the hardest games ever returns for another sequel - on the Nintendo DS.

One of the hardest games ever returns for another sequel - on the Nintendo DS.Marking the 20th anniversary of the franchise, the game pushes 2D side-scrolling action in an all-new direction with gunplay that spans two full screens and frantic multiplayer functionality.

Contra 4 takes place two years after the events of Contra III: The Alien Wars. After saving earth from invasion by Red Falcon, Bill Rizer and Lance Bean are confronted with a new extraterrestrial menace: the terrifying Black Viper. Joined by hard-boiled mercenaries Mad Dog and Scorpion, the warriors must once again wage war against an entire army of invaders.

Continuing the multiplayer tradition of previous games in the series, Contra4 lets two players battle together against Black Viper's army and reclaim Earth for mankind.

It is a shame that this is only for the DS. I was a huge fan of the first game and would love to see a souped up version on a newer platform.
