Decap-attack: Konami's Contra ReBirth WiiWare revival in motion

IGN contributor Anoop Gantayat has uploaded video of the just released Contra revival Konami recently surprise-announced as a WiiWare downloadable, and it took no more than seeing the robo-decapitation in the first 10 seconds of the video above for me to decide that I'm going to need this game soon.

See Gantaya's andriasang blog for a full breakdown of what the game entails.

Maybe I'm missing something, but after watching that I almost would rather see the original Contra come out for the Virtual Console.

(SLIGHT SPOILER WARNING)
Another youtube clip is even longer and shows a few more stages. If you want to see more so you know whether to purchase, then click away. If you are already intending to buy the game - maybe don't click - so you don't ruin any surprises.
