Contra Gender Swap Vs. Original #shorts #contra #girlpower #genderequality #videogame #fangame

This video shows a side‑by‑side comparison of the cutscenes from the original Japanese version of Contra (English translated) and a fan‑made ROM hack that changes the main characters to female. The patch turns Contra’s protagonists into strong, beautiful women named Bella Rizer and Lana Bean, replacing Bill Rizer and Lance Bean. It builds on Ferraro’s translation pack, updates the title screen to feature the new characters back‑to‑back, adds white tank tops where needed, modifies the “military” file IDs to display only the face in grayscale, and revises two cutscenes—the radio call and the machine‑gun shoot‑out—along with all small sprites and the dialogue for the final two cutscenes.
