Played very little Contra, but 3 was my favorite of what I played. I think I got past the first level. Maybe.

Hard Corps > Alien Wars > Contra JP > Super C > Contra > Operation C if just ranking mainline console games

The Arcade games of 1 and Super C are neat but I only bothered to play them once

Probotector is just those same games with the humans replaced with robots because of European censorship

Also a shame Contra 4 didn't make it into the collection because it's up there with Hard Corps and Contra III

Hard Corps > Contra 1 = Shattered Soldier > Alien Wars > Super C > Neo Contra > Operation C = Contra 4 > Rebirth

Shattered Soldier had potential to be the best. It proudly delivers on the gameplay front but the garish art leaves a lot to be desired on replays - which you'll be doing a lot. Worth a mention as it's the only one to really approach the laser-focused quality of the original games.

It was weird to me that Contra JP had it's own slot of the selection page, because with Konami's other collections (including this one even), you can scroll all the way to the bottom to select JP to turn all of them to the JP version. And it's not like the JP version of Contra added anything that significant (some cutscenes and graphic changes). Castlevania collection had actual gameplay differences, and they didn't get their own slot...

Mega Man X5 wins the mediocrity contest.

Nothing mediocre about Duff McWhalen
