I played the original Contra games on the NES and SNES as a kid, and love them. I was surprised to learn that the series had been revived on the Nintendo DS, and it's pretty well done IMO. Contra 4 seems to capture the spirit of the SNES "Alien Wars", and extends it a good deal. Great fun, and some of the finest 2D graphics I can recall.

I ran across this link earlier this week, and it's pretty interesting. I've only done some basic testing, but I'm thinking it could be good for finding new artists.
