Were you feeling a bit left out by the release of Contra ReBirth everywhere but North America? We were too, which is why we're delighted to tell you that North American Wii owners will be able to get their fill of dangerously shirt-free side-scrolling combat this Monday. We'd like to take the opportunity to thank Konami for telling us what's going to be available before it's available.
Konami included the short trailer above, which includes one frame of ridiculous cut scene: "All fighting men are 'Contra,' whether they be human or robot!" There are also new screens of the adventures of Bill Rizer and samurai Genbei Yagyu (what?) to enjoy in our gallery.
Jim Lee art based Neo Contra reference there. I like it. Bought NeoC for $5 on clearance and blasted through it in 90 minutes with my brother one night.

Looks great, but sadly, it will have to wait until I can get online with the Wii and get another points card.
