Julius Posted September 14, 2023 Share Posted September 14, 2023 Konami and WayForward teaming up for this Contra reimagining is not what I was expecting! Quote The legendary Contra series is back! Contra: Operation Galuga is a thorough reimagining of the classic run-'n-gun action game from the '80s, featuring modern graphics and sound, new stages, new enemies and bosses, new play mechanics, an updated weapons system, and explosive co-op combat for up to two players in Story Mode or four players in Arcade Mode! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dcubed Posted September 15, 2023 Share Posted September 15, 2023 At first, when I saw the game on the ND, I was like… … then when they said it was being done by Wayforward… Defo keeping my eye on this one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

darksnowman Posted December 29, 2023 Share Posted December 29, 2023 Quote Contra veterans will recognize this one! When the action heats up, this symphonic version of the classic @ContraSoldier tune kicks in, letting you know that, without a doubt, Contra has arrived! #Contra: Operation Galuga hits consoles and PC in early 2024! Yup, that sounds Probotectory. More info here: https://www.konami.com/games/contra/og/us/en/ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hero-of-Time Posted February 21 Share Posted February 21 Reading some impressions from people who have played the demo on Switch and its sounding pretty rough in comparison to other versions. Apparently it's running at 30fps, @Dcubed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Get Switch 2 out already FFS! Quote Yeah, the game's kind of a mess on Switch -- both docked and portable. The 30fps might be tolerable if it was stable, but there seems to be a LOT of frame pacing issues, and quite a bit of hitching and input lag that can definitely hinder you -- not great for a precision, twitch-based game such as this. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darksnowman Posted February 22 Share Posted February 22 Sending some demos to the Switch and the price of this? The demo better knock my socks off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darksnowman Posted February 23 Share Posted February 23 Demo gives you the first level. It feels decent enough! Otherwise, it looks cheap, I ducked and fell through the ground to my death at one point (couldn't replicate) and the music cut out during a stretch when I replayed it with a different character. Don't think silence was their perk. Seems to chug momentarily in the same spots too. Can't see the graphics getting a touch-up but the other stuff needs ironed out. I flubbed a few times and thought it was down to me, but seeing input lag mentioned above, I'm gonna use that as my excuse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hero-of-Time Posted March 11 Share Posted March 11 Reviews are out and it looks like the Switch version is pretty rough, which makes sense given the state of the demo. Nintendo Life are usually pretty positive but they had this to say. Quote The Switch version's frame rate is really rough, and requires determination to look past. Lag is chronic and fluctuates with the frame rate, and various glitches remain present. Handheld mode suffers from tiny character renders that make it difficult to follow the action. Definitely looks like it's worth picking this up on another platform if you have one available to you. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
