Conta III: The Alien Wars make its way to the Wii U Virtual Console

Things 90’s kids fought over: What was the coolest dinosaur (clearly Dilophosaurus with all its inaccurate razzle dazzle), where the hell Bosnia and Herzegovina actually were (they border Croatia, Serbia, and Montenegro) and whose turn it was to play the sole cartridge of Contra III: The Alien Wars mom was willing to buy (It was obviously your turn because Matthew already had his turn and that’s not fair).

While it still isn’t available on the 3DS Virtual Console, where it would seem a logical place for a formerly handheld title, Contra III: The Alien Wars GBA edition has made its way into the Wii U Virtual Console this week. For $8 you can pew pew aliens and robots and maybe save the world in the process.

The GBA edition varied from the original SNES version by throwing in some new levels, so that's fancy.
