Games Asylum: "In all my years of gaming, I’ve rarely heard a bad word about Contra – Konami’s 1987 hard but fair run ‘n gun shooter. It’s the game that often headlines dubious NES-based plug ‘n play consoles, no doubt much to Konami’s infuriation. Even today, when a new run ‘n gun game is announced it’s usually compared to either Contra or Metal Slug, and that’s despite the series being stuck in a rut for a decade or so. The task of making Contra great again has been put upon WayForward, creators of Contra 4 for Nintendo DS, and it’s pleasing to see Konami hand off the franchise to a studio with experience."
"Contra: Operation Galuga switches on the time machine and bags some 1980s action hero glory - a near-perfect slice of retro run and gun fun."
