Quite an improvement over the GB Gradius/Nemesis games >:b. Great color, cool bosses, excellent graphics, and hey, you even get the Gradius Gaiden ships here too. While all this is nice, some stages in the game are too stale. That fire stage sure looks nice, but man is it boring. Interesting thing here to note is the "Hint" section. This becomes available in whatever area you're in and shows you how to properly navigate and triumph. Can't really say much for the tunes. They're very GameBoy-sounding and the sound effects were dominating it. There are voice announcements for the power-ups which is nice, and the big brain at the end of the game looks fantastic. The only things I miss are the classic boss tune, and the boss stage. Maybe one of these days Mobile 21 will make a Contra game...
