I played Contra arcade (1987) shortly after it was released in 1988. It was one of the first arcade video games I played right up there with Gyruss and the legend of kage.
An incomplete anniversary collection sadly, since it doesn't include Shattered Soldier, Neo Contra, Contra Rebirth and the very last GOOD game we got in series: Hard Corps Uprising.
Yeah it is missing quite a bit. I’m assuming they were trying to stay with certain systems. It’s also missing Contra Advance. Or even Contra 4 from the DS. I enjoyed that one!
out of curiosity does your cartridge freeze when you play mines does no matter which contra I play it freezes as in cant shoot or jump and it can be a second up to close a minute
Yeah the wait time on collectors edition take a good while to arrive. Thankfully they've improved the manufacturing process and standard edition games now ship between 1 to 3 months after preorders close.

@@InfinityNerdStore I can't believe I forgot Contra 4!!! I thought I had named all the worthwhile games.
