News: Konami releases one of their classic Contra titles on to the Wii U Virtual Console.

Another classic game is now available on the Wii U Virtual Console with the release of “Super C,” otherwise known as Super Contra. For those who might not have played this game growing up or are too young to have played this game when it was first released, the premise is below:

In this action-packed sequel to the popular Contra, players have little time to think. Experience run-and-gun gameplay at its best as you take control of Mad Dog or Scorpion and once again battle the forces of Red Falcon. Stages feature a combination of perspectives (side scrolling, top down, etc.) and intense battles against huge bosses. Use a variety of powerful weapons and tap into your killer instinct to survive the deadly waves of enemies. Because if your trigger finger lacks stamina, then Earth will lack a future!

Super C is now available on the Nintendo eShop for $4.99. Check out the trailer below and tell us what you think. Are you excited to revisit the Contra series?
