Product Description
Wowie! Contra Advance: The Alien Wars EX is a Fantastic action-packed side-scrolling shooter developed by Konami for the
GameBoy Advance. In this game, you take on the role of Lance Bean or Bill Rizer, who must save the Earth from an alien invasion. The game offers intense gameplay mechanics such as using different weapons, power-ups, and epic boss battles. What truly makes this game special is the co-op mode where you can team up with a friend to take on the challenge.
