News: Intriguing: Contra 4 Dev Working on Aliens Side-Scrolling Shooter for Nintendo DS

From Shack News:

Sega has announced an interesting sounding Aliens game for the Nintendo DS, which ought to whet fans’ appetites for the Gearbox-developed Colonial Marines due next year.

From the sound of the gameplay, it will be a little bit Jagged Alliance, and a little bit Contra (with an extra dose of exploration). It will be possible to recruit 19 different Marines, all of whom have their own abilities. The team you assemble will be used to explore environments including the Sulaco and LV-426.
