A pretty solid Game Boy port of the original SNES classic of Contra III: The Alien Wars. This was ported by a defunct company known as Factor-5

  • I believe factor 5 also did Turrican games

  • @123doomdoom Yes they did. And I would like to thank you for subcribing as I have seen your comment on my Wings of Wor video. I appreciate it.

  • so is there another port specifically for the GBA?

  • @paulspydar The GBA version is actually known as "Contra Advance: The Alien Wars EX". It was actually a butchered port of the SNES version. It swapped out the overhead levels and replaced them with 2 levels from Contra Hard Corps on the Genesis.

  • When did Factor 5 go defunct? I thought they were still around, they just hadn't done anything in a while (the last they did being Game Cube games for Nintendo).

  • They're not actually defunct. As far as what I know, according to Wikipedia, they actually caused closure in May of 2009. However, they are somewhat around, but they are only a privately-held company.
