Welcome to our weekly feature, Virtually Overlooked, wherein we talk about games that aren't on the Virtual Console yet, but should be. Call it a retro-speculative.With Contra 4 kicking DS Lites' asses, Contra fans who inexplicably only own Wiis are probably feeling a bit neglected, with only Super C and Contra III: The Alien Wars to play. Oh, wait, those games are awesome. Well, nonetheless, we want to talk about Contra today, specifically the one Virtual Console-eligible Contra game that is not in the direct Contra series progression, and is thus most likely to be underappreciated in the post-Contra 4 world. Consider yourself a hero and jump over the exploding post break.
