CONTRA The ultimate BAD ASS NES GAME. Anyone see that shit on NES Super Mario Bros 1 if you die you hold A then hit start to play again and you start off on whatever level you lost your last life. Anyone know that? I don't remember that in Nintendo Power or anywhere back in the day? Great Games Mike! 👍🏻🇺🇲

I remember playing the first contra on one of the most popular of our childhood, neighborhood friends, computer back in the 80s. Kids, and young adults just can't even relate to this kind of experience. We're talking pre-original-nintendo here. This was the waning days of quarter play laundry mat video games and Atari (if you were lucky enough to have one). The best we had at home was Yaris, tank wars, or super breakout. Relatively speaking, 100 years before the internet. These were the years of "married with children" and "the Simpsons" being considered an issue for American families. Hell my cousins 2 houses down weren't even allowed to watch either of those shows. It's fkn rediculous when you look back on it now, how innocent those shows were in comparison to what is just accepted by today's standards. It's funny how relative perspective is. I see here, everything you do, but with my particular generation; I additionally witness things others are incapable of.

Holy Christ Mike! That was some amazing playing! Your contra run where you were burnt out not feeling playing with no expectations was absolutely fantastic! James once tells a story of him beating contra for the first time as a kid before school and this was like your chapter of that story, the shock the surprise, that zen state and then the disbelief and euphoria at the end! Dude it was amazing!

Yeah man for some weird reason Contra was in the airwaves in peoples minds the past many months. I even finally did a bucket list finish of the Arcade Super C on my page, not full run through, just light showcasing the game itself with features I didn't know existed before. I'm also am still working on Original Contra arcade. Those arcade games are meant to be quarter suckers, they're hard. You're going back to the challenge days, and NES advantage back pages of Nintendo Power. It was nice to peak some views at Alien wars again, that takes me back to most peoples first graphical close to arcade home version of Contra or The Genesis Hardcorps one too. There is one challenge I have interest in Super C arcade, which I'll try to do and have already tried. It's not easy.

It's not a world record or anything but my best run was 3 million points in Contra. Had to beat the game 4 or 5 times on one continue. 15:44 Energy zone is the best/worst level. I probably lost all my lives on that one. On repeat playthroughs guys will duck and shoot at you for extra challenge/annoyance.

I grew up playing contra also. The "R" icon gives you ability to shoot faster. "S" (spread) with "R"(rapid) Is the shit. I always see you jumping over "R" when you have spread. Try it Mike, shoots faster, less wrist flare ups.

Hey Mike! I’ve got a Hot Gaming Tip for you! Regardless of how fast you press the fire button, Contra/Super C will only spurt in groups of 5 rounds. The truck is to incorporate a jump in between the spurts to close distance between you and the top-screen/flying bosses. Add spread to this and you can jump and spam fire five times and have a concentrated spread fire onto individual targets, just like the sewer level boss in Super C, or the spacecraft that dumps aliens above you. It also works on the first level Boss. Keep jumping and spamming fire at the helicopter turrets, then continue jumping as close as you can to the glowing heart and spam fire. It also works for the second stage tank boss. Walk right behind the center tank operator and spam spread. If you jump and concentrate spread fire you will be able to easily beat every “above you” boss in 2-3 seconds of firing.
