The controls are actually very similar to the original Contra. Due to the limited number of buttons, the player now only has one gun as opposed to two. The controls are similar, although the player can change direction while crouched. (there also appears to be no way to gain extra lives here either) There is also a sound test there, although the difficulty option was removed. The player can start with anywhere between 3 and 9 lives (between 3 and 30 in the rerelease) through the use of the options screen, although there are no continues in this game. The smart bombs are also kept in this version and function similarly to those from the SNES game. The spread gun only fires in 3 directions as opposed to 5 and the laser only does 2 regular shots of damage. The powerups are limited when compared with the original games, with the only collectable weapons being the laser and spread guns, and these function slightly differently.
