Contra III for the Super Nintendo is being ported to the Game Boy Advance.

Konami has announced Contra Advance, a GBA port of Contra III: The Alien Wars for the Super Nintendo. The game will feature the same type of 2D side-scrolling shooting action that made the early games in the Contra series a success.

Contra Advance is scheduled to hit stores this November. We'll have more information as it becomes available.
