Keeping up with all of the mini consoles on the market, SEGA has announced their SEGA Genesis Mini will become available on September 19, 2019. The teeny console comes packed with 40 games (and two “bonus” titles), all of the required cables, and 2 controllers so you and a friend can throw back to your playtimes of ol’ with Contra: Hard Corps, Golden Axe, Gunstar Heroes, Toejam and Earl, and so many more.
Here's an interesting thing to come out of E3: Konami is releasing a new Contra. CONTRA: ROGUE CORPS appears to be a sort of sequel to Contra III: Alien Wars, which you can now enjoy for the first time or all-over again in the Contra Anniversary Collection, as the official background for the game reads "two years after the Alien Wars had ended..." and the game's director is Nobuya Nakazato, who was also the director for Contra III and Hard Corps. Regardless of where it falls within the larger Contra canon, the game looks... pretty... interesting.
Sega is getting into the "all your favorite old titles on one little replica console" game with the forthcoming Sega Genesis Mini. Similar to the NES Classic and SNES Classic from Nintendo, the Sega Genesis Mini contains a collection of classic Sega titles on one box with all the accoutrement you'll need to enjoy them on a modern TV.
The best thing about the ever increasing list of games that are backwards compatible on the Xbox One is the way a game will pop up on your Available to Download list. If you owned Contra on the 360 you can now access it on the One, along with four other single player games.
So, you know how Contra is a made-up fictional thing that only exists as a video game franchise, right? Well, no, wrong, actually. Because co-opping and shooting all the things isn't enough, the toy makers at NECA are pushing out Contra action figures for the eight year old inside us all.
It's been a long time since the days of Sierra On-Line and the release of The Incredible Machine. The first game hit in 1993 and has since branched off into a few proper sequels, puzzle pack expansions, mobile releases, and countless numbers of unofficial offshoots and imitators. The release of Contraption Maker marks a return of the real deal,...
Contraption Maker, the sandbox puzzle game from the makers of The Incredible Machine, was first presented to the world back in the fall of 2013. Its alpha release was a little rough, but the dev team has been chugging along all these months with tweaks and improvements and additions. The official "beta" stamp means all of the core systems are in play and the big 1.0 release isn't far away!
2,153 BC: A group of nomadic hunters banded together to hunt a wildebeest to provide food for their people. 1,274 AD: A cabal of noble knights united to rid the kingdom of the bandit menace plaguing the peasantry. 2014 (AKA, Present Day): Two intrepid explorers (colloquially named “Blue” and “Round Boy”) journeyed deep into ...
The sandbox physics game Contraption Maker recently received a tidy little update that fixed a massive list of bugs and incorporated an almost as massive list of tweaks and improvements.

When I play 2 player side scrolling shooters I just want to hang from a missile with a pal, is that too much to ask?
