Whoa, it only took 38 years, but they finally are letting us choose between blue Contra and red Contra; I know about the arcade game, it doesn't count.
This game is great, legit a greatest hits of Contra all in one. Also references nearly everything in the franchise, well except rogue corps. Way Forward crushed it on this one right here.
Its my first time coming across your content and AYYYYEEEEE!!! The cut is flee, contra has been one of faves since a kid in the early 90s, and I usually dont leave comments... I gotta show love though!! Black woman on gaming and travel!!! LFG!!!
I'm a massive contra fan. But still can't justify the price of £35. I hoping it will arrive in the UK Spring Xbox sale this week. In the meantime I've noted its £10 on Kinguin. But I can't chance buying it as the website has such a mixed review. Got Double Dragon Gaiden on my wishlist too!
Cool! I'm glad to see a fellow Contra lover like yourself. I enjoyed your gameplay session of this new one. This game might be the first one to have a much deeper story mode and voice acting in game. Some of the older ones did have story and voice acting too but not as detailed as this new one. Contra is a pretty popular franchise back then but it's probably less known now with younger generations unless their parents introduced them to this game series. Most people that I've seen post gameplay videos on this new game are older fans. Most know the first game from the 80s that came out on the NES but few know the sequels. I hope that this new game introduced new fans to the Contra series. The main playable characters from the original were Bill Rizer and Lance Bean which funny enough looks like they were inspired by Arnold Schwarzenegger from the movies Predator and Commando and Sylvester Stallone from the Rambo movies, but there's new characters in this game from what I've seen. The alien enemies in later stages were inspired by xenomorphs and alien eggs from the Alien movies. Some of the other playable characters in the series and other Contra games are The Probotectors, Brad Fang, Ray Poward, Sheena Etranzi, Browny, Lucia, Bahamut, Krystal, Kaiser, Ms. Harakiri, Hungry Beast and many others if you include the free to play mobile game Contra Returns. Here's all the Contra games in order of release date. Contra (1987) - NES, MSX2, Arcade, Commodore 64, CPC, ZX, DOS Super Contra, aka Super C in North America (1987) - NES, Arcade, Amiga, DOS Operation C (1991) - Game Boy Contra III: The Alien Wars (1992) - SNES, Game Boy Contra Force (1992 - NA only) - NES Contra: Hard Corps (1994) - Sega Genesis/Mega Drive Contra: Legacy of War (1996) - PlayStation, Sega Saturn C: The Contra Adventure (1998) - PlayStation Contra: Shattered Soldier (2002) - PlayStation 2 Neo Contra (2004) - PlayStation 2 Contra 4 (2007) - Nintendo DS Contra Rebirth (2009) - Nintendo Wii download Hard Corps: Uprising (2011) - PlayStation 3, Xbox 360 download Contra: Rogue Corps (2019) - Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, PC Contra: Operation Galuga (2024) - Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Windows, Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S
@@thequeeng2282 does it run fine on switch tough??. the demo was awfully choppy. I don't expect 60fps high quality stuff from a switch . But good. Switch seems like a perfect fit for contra.
@@ArjanSnijder I own it on Nintendo Switch. I am at stage 4. It runs smooth on the full game, yes. In the demo, the developer ' Way Forward' stated and I have subsequently seen, they spliced parts of stage 1 and stage 3 and merged it in the demo. This " doctoring" of parts of the full game for demo caused these hiccups we saw in the demo.
I have to say you played pretty well just to say it was your first time, i had to play the first contra game many of times before i actually beat it so the more u play the better u get at it,its not how u fail the first time,but its how u respond back to after been defeated,eventually after so many defeats u will win big ,so take that for inspiration Queen, with lots of love💜
What Wayforward should do is Port Ducktales Remastered to the Switch, its on Wii U…Great Vid by the way 🤘🏾Yay for the beautiful hair for a beautiful woman 🙏🏾
Im all in for revamps of the classics! Beat the original on NES. Now I have to play and beat Super contra before I tackle this one. Nice playthrough, Queen! Oh, and the hair...Yay✌🏽💜 8:13-8:16 Oh, I watched it hit me straight in the face 🫢🤭TWSS 11:28-11:30 Just slid right off TWSS
I don't know if you edit your own videos, or if someone else does it - they do an excellent job. The video quality and editing for your videos is fantastic.
If you grew up in the NES days playing games that were NES hard you will always have a skill advantage over younger gamers in stuff like this. We are NES hard. 😂 Younger people have the fps skills though for sure. Some straight assassins. But any "classic style" games run and guns platformers rpgs belt strollers (beat em ups) us old heads got that. Lol
Have some of the best memories revolving around family and the first Contra game. Played the demo and it seems legit. Added it to my waitlist so now I’m just waiting on a price drop. Might splurge tho!!
I'm so glad they remade this game--albeit a little late, it was still worth the wait. Got it on my Switch, and plays much better with game update. And btw, you could go short hair like "Halle" and still be a baddie mama! 😘✌
Wow. Even though they included a 3 health bar style system before you lose a life, the game still looks hard as heck, just like the old days. Count me in! 😆 Thanks for sharing! 🙌
I usually like to watch story modes in games especially the stories for the mortal kombat games,its like while the story is being told their is someone or a group of fighters going at it with very little talk or fighting while they talk 😄
I didn't even know this existed but then again I haven't been gaming much these days. I know the original is a classic. I play it every now & then on my modded Xbox. Even on the mod Xbox the code up up down down left right left right b a start still works lol This looks damn good though. The cut is fly
its like we were getting alot of mid nostalgic products until these recent couple of years. the energy is similar to the Arcade or the dream cast era. 💜good fun
Bummer No Konami Code? Is this a New game to Contra series? Is it a sequel or a Per-quel? The Game looks awesome👊 They need to make a mash up game Contra Hard Corps & Ikari Warriors🤞🤞 ☘
Try a throwback with Contra Hard Corps (Sega Gen)! Multiple story paths... Contra 3 (SNES) is arguably the best, but people have a good argument that Hard Corps is the best. Most CRAZY for sure... super wild for the times. Enjoy!
Awww. You are too cool. I really enjoy your spirit and enthusiasm. You rock Miss. Sorry to seem demeaning by saying awww. I just think you are a cute person with a cute spirit. So ill be finding things you do here and there, adorable and whatnot.
Interesting channel. From a fellow Switch OLED owner, decided to avoid Nintendo's port of Galuga & picked up a Steam Deck & the pc version. Plays well on the Deck. Smooth, lots of nods to what came before, & currently made it to the 7th stage or alien stage. Its enjoyable & can see how some familiar gamers wouldn't care for the look. No major biggie for me, I have a GBA Contra version & Switch Contra anniversary edition to keep nostalgia intact... Latest update: 4/5/24 - Just beat level 8 in story mode, Wow! The last boss/stage is dope, solid ending. Heads up, more footage after credits. Tight game w/incentives to keep playing to unlock items/characters. Enjoy everyone...
I got it on my Xbox....very good game! I remember playing the original as a kid my cousin had it he called it country 😂he was from the country so there's that. 😂 but this game is 👍🏾
I played the Demo on the Switch and hated it. It was jittery at times that actually happened when jumping and it killed my character so I rage quit. Maybe they patched it though 🤷🏻♀️ I would buy it for the Series X but this is the type of game that the Switch was born for and being able to play it in portable mode just feels right
Yay,im digging the new haircut, u look even more beautiful than the last time i saw u ,on your last recent videos i mean but nonetheless you look amazing 😊💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
I don't normally buy digital games. However, Contra Operation Galuga is my first. I am a dad and I used to play it on NES and Super NES back in the early 1990s. I made the decision because ' Limited Run Games' won't have physical copies till September of this year. I couldn't wait that long.
@@coris3436 I am at stage 4 now. It's really a fun game. A real video game not some interactive movies like many games these days. It's good use your earned credits to buy 1ups and start subsequent stages with special guns.
I don't believe that you were alive when the first Contra came out. Way to pretty to be a gamer. Not saying that to hit on you, I'm just a creepy old man. Game on!!! 🎮
Yes. I think so. You said yourself you’d play that game a couple hours. So give it a whirl for 30 min or so live. Even your unboxing be entertaining and we miss the b-role cause of edits. And mediocre gameplay is the fad😸.
I thought it was decent enough but so bloated. Doesn't feel like a game like this should take up so much precious hard drive space. :/ And Contra's never needed all that story before. So much taaaalking. At least arcade there's less time to wait before jumping about and shooting. :P
UP, UP, DOWN, DOWN, LEFT, RIGHT, LEFT, RIGHT, B, A, START!!!! Probably the most legendary cheat code ever made lol 🤟
Facts, but can you use it in the new game?🤷🏾♂️
Yep I definitely remember that cheat code well,I believe I used it and I have beaten the game at least twice,this was a classic game to play
Ah, youve read my tattoo
Gimme my 5 lives

It’s not contra it’s.. some other side scrolling action game. It’s like contra.. but it’s not contra. 5/10
you cant lay down and shoot like the old game?
This looks cool but Alex Jones side scroller looks cooler. My opinion.
Get DOWN !!
This game is like $3 or $4 on the Nintendo eshop.
I bought the wrong version…. Embarrassing 🤷🏾♂️
All the hardcore contra people I know did not like this game. Seems to be divisive.
Probably not challenging enough for them.
Probably not challenging enough for them.
I love this game. Modern 2.5d graphics, mechanics. I played in the arcades in the late 80s and original NES, Super NES and Genesis.
Don’t be embarrassed about picking easy mode I always pick easy mode I want a good story I don’t wanna start the game over and over again😊
God some stuff looks so damn cheap FACKIN KONAMI
I thought it was decent enough but so bloated. Doesn't feel like a game like this should take up so much precious hard drive space. :/
