@@22espec Old comment but yes. Would've been awesome if he/they climbed in the helicopter, it then dropped that missile/nuke down that hole, and next scene we see a fierymushroom cloud in distance.
this was my fave game as a kid, beat it when I was like 10 years old. shouted my dad into my bedroom when I got to the final boss for his moral support, good times
Ohhhh..... the boss at 12:45..... MASSIVE love/hate relationship with that guy! He killed me more than any other boss. Yet, I loved his fight! That whole teleport and then block with his weaponized tail was just soooo cool to me!
This was the best Contra. It really was ahead of its time. Innovative gameplay mechanics and visuals. One of the ALL time best games on the SNES. I can remember playing this game a lot. Really fun.
8:04 helicopter : arial enemy detected ! what are your orders ? contra : shoot me on a missile at it helicopter : but once that missile explode you'll die ! contra : just keep shooting missiles, I'll figure it out somehow
The last boss was a dick for ever time you pick the spike thing it drops out items trolling you like I dare you come over here and get these free extra items XD
Just one of my favorite games ever. Very nice playthrough for level 3. I'm gonna give old Contra 3 a shot soon enough. Used to enjoy hard corps as well.
Yes, so much memories of this game... Have not yet identified this specific music, but the previous one (Kimkoh theme) is taken from The sacrifial dance, in Stravinsky's The Rite of Spring.
Contra 3 is such a great game. Great job on the bosses and not dieing to them! When I play this game, I actually have a pretty similar strategy for most of these bosses, but I could never do as well as this.
No matter what run and gun game you're playing,it's a living hell without a player 2 who is just a pro as you are. This is a prime example of that hell
when i completed the game on normal mode a message appeared, and said that you need to play it on hard to beat the last boss, and that really pissed me off the first time....
@@griegomamey4624 I never played this game all the way through. I always played the normal difficulty level but never beat the game. I got the SNES mini and played it on easy and beat it. They gave me that "play the normal difficulty level" jazz and I said F**K THAT!!!
I remember not wanting to play this game as a kid thanks to the box art scaring the shit out of me. When I finally got around to playing it though holy balls was it good!
I don't give a FUCK how easy you make this game look or how skilled you are at it. There IS NO WAY, NOT A CHANCE IN HELL THAT YOU'LL SURVIVE CONTRA III ON THIS DIFFICULTY WITHOUT A GAME GENIE! EVEN WITH 30 LIVES, 4 CONTINUES, AND 9 BOMBS YOU WILL NOT MAKE IT PAST STAGE 4! IT'LL BE GAME OVER BEFORE YOU MAKE IT TO STAGE 5 OR 6! YOU WILL NOT SURVIVE!
What old times with this game, I remember that I was addicted to playing this game all day, because I often died that, but they were worth killing the bosses and pass the story against, a true work of art this game. Take your like.
@@christinasavannah7992 Agreed and same with the later PS2 Contra games. Many of the horrific monster designs are REALLY out there. Some very Eldritch-level sh*t... 😅
one of the first games i bought for my super nintendo... took a while, but i kicked its ass!!! then went back and did it on hard level.... watching this now, i had forgotten how many bosses there were!!!! well done!!!
Absolutely an underrated game, it did almost give me nightmares, after all, that's the point of the game, and I like how good it is and the music does make it scarier, too, which honestly makes it really goated
esos tiempos aun recuerdo yo no tuve un emulador snes de niño pero lo jugue en la secundaria el juego me lo presto un amigo de la secundaria y lo jugue tiempos inolvidables recuerdo cuando tbm lo jugue con mi hermano menor :)
Way to go! You've conquered the toughest Contra challenge yet. Your heroic deeds have restored peace to a war torn world. The Alien forces have been destroyed by a gaming champion! Your efforts will not be forgotten..... 10/9/2024

@ 6:17 The flamethrower is the fastest boss killer in the game. I figured out how to beat the twin robots and the massive head in under 2min at 8 years old. The flamethrower is the meta weapon in this game
6:15 those 2 robots used to scare the shit out of me as a kid, specially when the red one jumps on the roof because it first caught me off guard thinking i was safe hanging on the roof
Mi papá y yo éramos fanáticos de KONAMI Contra y Castlevania eran nuestros juegos favoritos él era Pro en Contra y yo en Castlevania. Me encanta este juego de Contra III porque era uno de sus favoritos y míos también. Pero yo no pasaba del 4 nivel😅😅
It's the best game of all. I was 12 years old. And in the actuality i would like to play again. It was my golden years in the vídeo games and in the playrooms.
At 7:42 you get attacked by a sword wielding, grappling hook, jetpack guy. When he is dead you never see him again. All the bosses and enemies are all unique with cool art and mechanics. Not like today where they just re-skin the old enemies and call them something new.
this dude literally flew a helicopter missile up to an enemy aircraft and then used the helicopter missiles to JETTISON over to the bad guys. he then FLIPS from missile to missile thousands of feet above the air as they explode against the force field. he does this for at least 10 minutes! then he destroys the ship and the badass helicopter pilot manages to save him in time! I'm so glad I grew up in the '90s the level of imagination was off the charts back then! This guy doesn't even know how to beat it he just goes up their and hopes for the best!
The Stage 3 Skeleton Boss's name is Big Fuzz???? I played this so much as a kid, but even if I gathered 30 lives on the stage 3 birdman hovercraft, I couldn't finish it on Hard. Only once did we beat the final boss's brain form, with one life left... only to be instantly killed when it suddenly rushed after us! It doesn't do this on Normal, so we flew off our chairs. But then I played it at a friend's many years later, and got through the whole game on Hard without gathering any extra lives (just barely, but). That is still the only time I've beaten it on Hard, though. Great game.

I kinda like hard corps more just cause there is way more things to do in the game like different ending
@@NinjaCacodemon_IsSusиз-за большого количества концовок не понятно какая из них каноничная
Most likely? You beat it through perseverance and a LOT of luck.
@@NinjaCacodemon_IsSus lol hard corpses too easy
That chopper pilot deserves mad respect.
I was going to say yes but i was let down wheb it didnt drop that missile over the final boss

@@22espec This game is incredibly hard.
@@isaacmontecillo7948nada que um treino não de jeito 👍😁
*This game was a fusion of Predator Rambo Alien Terminator and Commando*
OmniKrauzer with the Jurassic Park ending theme music. 🤣👍
A little bit of The Thing too
Also has some Galaxy Of Terror vibes and influence to it.
Shit is good
I particularly liked what was basically a Boba-Fett Predator mini-boss fight at 7:41
this was my fave game as a kid, beat it when I was like 10 years old. shouted my dad into my bedroom when I got to the final boss for his moral support, good times
This has to be one of the greatest contra games in existence
Dario The Sphaget lover Dario este juego es duro admitelo
I think this one was the best
It's too damn short
Only 4 good levels and one character you can play as...
Bryce Olson look at back to the future on sega genesis and then say this game is too short
Ohhhh..... the boss at 12:45..... MASSIVE love/hate relationship with that guy! He killed me more than any other boss. Yet, I loved his fight! That whole teleport and then block with his weaponized tail was just soooo cool to me!
It's pretty easy to cheese him with the crash bombs... When he warps move down, shoot up left, and then move up a little
And his theme is the absolute BEST!!!!!!!!
It was absolutely hard due to character's slow movement on wall and that creature's quickly attacking tail
This was the best Contra. It really was ahead of its time. Innovative gameplay mechanics and visuals. One of the ALL time best games on the SNES. I can remember playing this game a lot. Really fun.
19zach75 not really.....
Actually the best Contra game is Hard Corps
@@infinitemillennium3821 ...everyone is entitled to their opinion. It's Contra lll for me.
@@robertbektas1810...another opinion.
Debatable, but it was a good game, for sure. I liked this game, just not as much as most other Contra games, like Contra 4
Man, the soundtrack is freaking awesome!
Nightmare fuel at least that’s what Konami does
8:04
helicopter : arial enemy detected ! what are your orders ?
contra : shoot me on a missile at it
helicopter : but once that missile explode you'll die !
contra : just keep shooting missiles, I'll figure it out somehow
Would have died like a million times on that boss
I don't know if that missiles done any damage.
They have some real good gymnastic skills.
@@melonelon7590 Yes they do damage, slow down at the exact time the boss is defeated, the last hit was from a missile!
In ps2: i run on helicopter blade
I love how the bosses in this game generally make no sense whatsoever but them being completely out of control and weird was half the fun.
Action games
Then: 95% Action 5% cuts/scenematics
Now: 30% Action 70% cuts/scenematics

Gotta get all the play hours possible from all the players.

There's a lot of video games out there that are underrated nobody talks about, but I agree, AAA games are ruined terribly.

We knew how to focus back in the day
This man can do one arm pull ups😨😨😰. The scene where the helicopter lifts him up and he shoots the boss.
"No damage"
Lol. In Contra, you *die* if you take a single hit. So any successful run is a no damage run.
Yep, just without being hit
There is no checkpoints system (except for continues), so if only lose a life you continue where you left off in the fight
Not in The Hard Corps, you can withstand up to 3 hits before losing a life.
In 3 you can choose to start with more lives. I felt pretty accomplished when I finally beat it
@@littleblueriolu9093 Japanese version only.

This game more than any other showcased what the SNES was capable of.
OMG I just realized for the first time in like 20 years the "C" weapon stands for concussion missiles.
UPDATE: My friend said it stands for "crusher", ah close enough.
Caboom missiles. xD
No..its Crusher
I thought it "Cannon" though
That predator music at 12:45😂😂
poloskier1967 queda bien con el alien volador q aparece
Yes, there is similarity!
Great moviecwith great actors...
I thought that sounded familiar! Konami chose their references wisely.
I remember beating this game on hard a few times i spent tons of hours on this game back then

Very imaginative designs for the bosses, they’re pretty dope!
Great video by the way! 😎👍
Im surpised this the grotesque approach of Bosses didnt give this game an M rating
@@christinasavannah7992 Agreed and same with the later PS2 Contra games. Many of the horrific monster designs are REALLY out there. Some very Eldritch-level sh*t... 😅

This game was one of the biggest quarter snatchers back in the day. It took all of mine every time!
The Giant Terminator busting through the wall is still my favorite boss in all of contra
Maravilloso juego, la acciòn, el soundtrack, la aventura, todo.
6:47
Random player: It would be cool in 3d.
Mass Effect 2: enjoy.
I see what you did there. Nice.
fun fact: the boss, Rocket Ninja Nagasaki, got a comeback at 'Contra: Hard Corps', as it swings to purely spinning.
19:27 Similar to Metal Slug 6 but this is a step up 😂
It's very similar to Metal Slug 6 😂
That 3 level pre boss with the spinner legs was so epic when I was a kid
Así es
I loved this game. I thought that one alien with the human face in it's mouth was scary when I was a kid.
The two characters here should be in Smash Bros. And their special move is that hilcopter.
agree
When i'm 4yr and play this game,these map,these bosses are so creppy for me,it's was a nightmare
🤔😁😆
Can I just say it? THIS IS THE GREATEST CONTRA GAME EVER!!!
Yeah, this is the best!
All contra games are pieces of art even evolution heh :3

2 bosses are miss ( Slash ) and ( Alien Heart )
I don't know whether to give mad respect or spew profanity for a solid 20 minutes...wow. Awesome.
beside the 1st and 2nd boss, the rest were just so insanely hard, they put Cuphead to shame @.@
because they were first...damn.
It isn't hard to me when i was only 6 years old .... but it seems like i've got losted my experience so it would get even hard to me (now)

Era un buen juego nunca pude ber el final no pude pasarla de Cuantos intentos mui buen video. estos juegos me traen muchos recuerdos de mi niñes
Whenever I play games with my brother we still say "let's attack aggressively" if we decide to go on offense because of this game haha.
Recuerdo de niño. Que satisfaccion me da gracias
still i think the heart boss shouldve been added since it was the final boss in the 1st game.
It was in tho
Have you even played the game?
This game is genuinely scary man!

En los 90s hubiera estado mamalon que sylvester stallone y arnold swarchanigga protagonizaran la pelicula de contra
Concuerdo contigo
Con una fusión de Rambo, Predator y Terminator 👌😁👊
Una sola película se quedaba corta, cuando.menos una trilogía (mejor si hubiesen sido hechas ente 1990 y 1995).
This game definitely had inspiration from sci-fi movies. Like Terminator, and Aliens.
that game brings back good memories of mine
the thought of actually being in the situation between 3:28-4:48 is horrifying. these games were always so oddly scary to me
It's the best game of all. I was 12 years old. And in the actuality i would like to play again. It was my golden years in the vídeo games and in the playrooms.
Joder, como se extraña este tipo de juegos, que buena habilidad la que tienes, merecez mucho je
i like how when you beat a difficulty the game encourages the player to try something harder until you've become the best.
Cuanta habilidad señor!

I finish this game in my childhood and now im in mid 20's only one question in my mind ...How i beat this hard good shit?.....
I remember playing this with my bro - Except we had the EU version where you're robots/cyborg. Man, nostalgia.
At 7:42 you get attacked by a sword wielding, grappling hook, jetpack guy. When he is dead you never see him again. All the bosses and enemies are all unique with cool art and mechanics. Not like today where they just re-skin the old enemies and call them something new.
i am a sega fan but when i saw this back in the day i was hooked
Between @14:00 - 16:30 is the most absurd part of the game. It feels like it never ends.
this dude literally flew a helicopter missile up to an enemy aircraft and then used the helicopter missiles to JETTISON over to the bad guys. he then FLIPS from missile to missile thousands of feet above the air as they explode against the force field. he does this for at least 10 minutes! then he destroys the ship and the badass helicopter pilot manages to save him in time!

My childhood was so metal!this shit needs a music dub now!
The Stage 3 Skeleton Boss's name is Big Fuzz????
I played this so much as a kid, but even if I gathered 30 lives on the stage 3 birdman hovercraft, I couldn't finish it on Hard. Only once did we beat the final boss's brain form, with one life left... only to be instantly killed when it suddenly rushed after us! It doesn't do this on Normal, so we flew off our chairs. But then I played it at a friend's many years later, and got through the whole game on Hard without gathering any extra lives (just barely, but). That is still the only time I've beaten it on Hard, though. Great game.
Also, robots >>>>>>>> old Rambo guys.
He protecc, he attack, but most importantly he atacc aggressively
