I prefer Super C by a longshot beat it twice in both Contra and Probotector and I prefer Super C / Probotector II Personally Contra gets dull by Stage 5
But holy shit bro i remember when i played the first stage of Contra 3 where u have to turn into Ultra Instinct and shoot over 10 enemies that uses S.M.G. and dogs r interrupting ur fight
Governor Arnold and Sylvester Stallone rampaging through a jungle shooting anything that moves. A movie like that would have shattered box office records in the 80's, especially with this soundtrack.
This particular one was probably one of the easier ones. I can do a playthrough without a problem. Ninja Gaiden and pretty much any Castlevania games. Now those are punishing games
30 years ago, when this soundtrack is played during the fighters roll jump down to the battlefield i feel a lot of energy and excitement. I use to play this game daily and complete all stages with my cousins ans friends and my uncle Now I’m lonely they all passed away And I’m trying to live my life Strange feeling, the first time I hear this sound track and feel depressed and crying
Same here im 40 and everytime i remember this game i think of my 2 brothers and a friend who passed out can't forget all the weekend mornings waking up early and passing hours playing that game and my mom shouting at us to stop playing for hours😢 damn good old days
I'm glad I had a proper upbringing. Zelda, Mario, Contra....My gaming life is one of the few things I thank my dad for. Started me off right on the NES in 2000, then the N64 in 2002, then the NGC, and a bunch of other Nintendo consoles. Thanks for that, dad.
cuando tenia 25 me desperte un dia con ganas de jugar asi que me fui al centro, me compre una nes con el mortal kombat, contra y un 100 en 1 donde estaba mario, ice climber, elevator action, bomberman entre tantos clasicasos..aproveche mis 3 dias de carpeta medica y le di masa jaja, despues le regale la nes a un nene que paso por casa a pedir comida jaja lo mismo paso con un sega genesis, que ese lo regale a un vecinito jaja, chocho quedaron los nenes
Konami, hear our voice. Instead of making shitty games, make a remake of this masterpiece. Right, friends? Wouldn't it be perfect if it was a TPS game in the style of Gears Of War or Army Of Two?
For me this version of contra is the superior one. The arcade version had shorter levels, better graphics but the music also doesn’t hit the same as this 8bit masterpiece. Defining moment in gaming history without a doubt, one of the greatest games of all time.
I remember calling blockbuster to see if they had a movie available...while playing this game...and the guy on the phone heard the spread gun sound and said..."are you playing Contra?" We became best friends.
@marmaladekillers Actually if i remember correctly, that secret code was UP DOWN UP DOWN LEFT RIGHT LEFT RIGHT B A SELECT START. And you had to do all that quick before the main characters showed on the start menu.
based on the comment section i think it's safe to say if there ever comes a live action Contra movie they should hire Arnold Schwarzenegger and Sylvester Stallone to play Bill and Lance and in case you didn't know yes that's the characters names
Used to play this all the time with my dad when I was a young lad. Such an amazing game. There was a time in my 20s when I ran it over and over again and could beat it without dying. I doubt I could do that now though.
Que puedo decir de Contra, por dios era el juego perfecto, Armas variadas, distintos mapas, jefes nada repetitivos y un soundtrack increible si jugaste contra en tu infancia dejame decirte que perteneces a una Elite de gamers que jamas se volvera a repetir.
What music tracks should be included as part of a hypothetical Contra DLC pack in Super Smash Bros Ultimate? This is all I have so far: 1. Jungle (Contra) (this theme) 2. Lightning and Grenades (Super Contra) 3. Boss (Super Contra) 4. Under the Feet (Super Contra) 5. Area 2 (Operation C) 6. Ground Zero (Contra III: The Alien Wars) 7. The Hard Corps (Contra: Hard Corps) 8. GTR Attack! (Contra: Hard Corps) 9. The Last Springsteen (Contra: Hard Corps)

I wonder who would be good actors for a modern Contra movie.

Hell yeah my man. When I was a kid these guys were Rambo and Dutch.
@@rickyjackson1258 💪
Why not Carl Weathers and Dolph Lundgren?
Bill Rizer and Lance Bean are actually based on Arnold and Stallone.
The name "Lance Bean" is a reference to Michael Biehn and Lance Henriksen.
The cover art of the game is two different Arnold shots from predator.
I thought the names of the playable characters were Jimbo and Sully?
Or Sylvester Stallone and Dolph Lundgren

What if they were similar to the Ice Climbers?
surprised that there aren't at least assist trophies for them
Holy shit, how have i never heard this idea before, and why isn’t it real yet?

I played this game when I was six years old. I kind of remember it as the Dark Souls of its time ;-)
This game pretty much inspired the creation of FromSoftware
@@guillermocalvillo4915 the fuck
Kids these days have no idea of the difficulty we faced. Another one that really comes to mind was Ninja Gaiden, super punishing.
Ninja Gaiden also didn't have the oh so precious Konami Code.
