Line 6:
* [[No Export for You]]: ''Contra Force'' was only released in North America, even though its Famicom counterpart (''Arc Hound'') was canceled.
** The Appaloosa-made titles, ''Contra: Legacy of War'' and ''C: The Contra Adventure'', were never released in Japan either. Also, ''Contra Adventure'' never came out in Europe, even though ''Legacy of War'' did. ''Contra 4'' never made it to Europe, either, despite including an unlockable character inspired by the Probotector versons of the previous games that were released in Europe.
** The MSX2 version of ''Contra'' was only released in Japan and did not have an official release in Europe, even though ''Nemesis'' (aka ''[[Gradius]]''), ''Vampire Killer'' (the MSX2 equivalent of the first ''[[Castlevania (1986 video game)|Castlevania]]'') and ''[[Metal Gear (video game)||Metal Gear]]'' were all released there. However, many ROM sites incorrectly list the game under the title of ''Gryzor'' (the European name of the first arcade game). This could be caused by the controversial [[Bowdlerise|Bowdlerisation]] of NES titles there.
* [[Port Overdosed]]: The original game, whether as ''Contra'' or ''Gryzor'', is one of Konami's most widespread games, being released on several platforms in the 80s and re-released many times since then.
