The Japanese opening was even better when translated, but can only remember the last line, it wasn't let's attack aggressively, it was "I'll never forgive those bastards."
@@logria10 contra 3 is graphically and musically superior,but hard corps have 4 characters more weapons more bosses more difficulty more endings more replay value
@@zengram Yes, it has more replay value, but Contra 3 still better for me. Better music, better graphics, better level design and harder in hard mode. Hard Corps is a great game though, no doubt.
Game was so difficult when I was young, barely got past stage 2, fast forward to 2022 and I finally beat it after all those years. Magnificent game for its time and the memories.
+Martín Agüero Yeah, I agree. I've been playing Contra III: The Alien Wars and Ninja Gaiden II (NES). Two badass games that have some of the best artwork that I've ever seen for 2D Action games.
This is more than just a platform game, it is an epic adventure. The guns, the sounds, the bosses, the creatures, the machines, the pace, the music, etc. Awesome game.
I never really took a moment to consider how absolutely fucking crazy this whole game is... I was too busy enjoying playing it back in the day but when you watch it back... konami must have been on a fucking shit load of drugs haha!
oh and it gets even better when you read the actual plot of the games, like holy shit. yet nobody has done a video about the crazy plot of these games, like che guevara is the intergalactic president, the alien giant worm from the first game is hitler, he and the skull with snake arms have an organization called red falcon (yes all the tanks and shit are theirs.)
Thank you for taking me back to one of my favorite SNES games! I still have both the system and the game but both of my controllers are busted!😥😥 The SNES was a great system!!
I used to play this along with Super Mario Bros., MK3, SF 2, Sonic Wings, Gradius III, Sunset Riders and Top Gear on arcade. Ahh my childhood days! Back when life is simple
My 15 years old son said Dark Souls was too hard, and I replied: "no, it isn't, I like it a lot, but it is just a grind, not really hard". And so he wanted to know what was the hardest game I ever played. "The old Contra games, for sure."
No offense to your son, but there is a phrase that no one uses anymore... "Nintendo Hard" ...there's a reason this phrase exists. Contra 3 was one such game, there are many other games that are as hard or harder in the NES/SNES eras.
I love games that try new things every level I especially love the overhead levels and that one level where’s your on a motorcycle and then next thing you know your hanging on a helicopter and then your shooting Aliens and then your fighting a Brain and then it turns into a spider made from heads and starts chasing you up the helicopter, HOLY SHIT THERES JUST SO MUCH STUFF GOING ON IN THIS GAME it a perfect demonstration of what the Super Nintendo is capable of
My cousin and I used to spend hours playing this game. We were so happy, always having fun trying to beat the game even though we couldn’t defeat the last boss. Ahh good old times
Wow. I was a champion at this back in 1993. It took me like a couple months to master the whole thing. I dont remember the laser doing so much damage!! (In floor plan levels it was a must, but my weapon of preference was Fire). Sick game.
I finally finished Contra 3 The Alien Wars today which is the hard move/true ending version! Oh my god, this video game was gorgeous, emotional, wonderful and amazing!!!!!!!!! The ending was amazing!!!!!!!!! After wiping out the alien and final alien yucky nasty vomit brain!!!!!!!!! Both Bill and Lance has saved the world from the alien war invasion and saved all the citizens!!!!!!!!! Contra 3 The Alien Wars was an masterpiece!!!!!!!!! Thank you Contra 3 The Alien Wars for being one of the best 2D Platformer video games I have ever played along with Super Mario World, Super Mario Bros Wonder, Celeste, Pizza Tower and SANABI!!!!!!!!! Thank you Contra 3 The Alien Wars goodbye and farewell!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :D
I was never able to beat this game in hard mode. To me this was probably the best snes game, just take a listen to the soundtrack and consider all the action in every war stage.
You're correct, because Contra Hard Corps took place after a few years of The Alien Wars, you can see it when the oldman told about the Colonel having alien cells
There is a patch to make the American version of this game as forgiving as the Japanese version. It’s recommended for those who can’t handle the challenge added by the localizers. Unlike the American version, the Japanese version lets you see the credits regardless of difficulty.
Konami made some of the best games ever made for snes and sega genesis wish they would come back it's a shame they're not around anymore so many good titles
Hoy 6 de Abril del 2022 se cumplen 30 años de la victoria humana contra los aliens!!! ... El videojuego Contra 3 - The alien wars se lanzó un 6 de Abril de 1992 en Estados Unidos para la Super Nintendo Entertainmet System. Este videojuego es según muchos fans, el mejor de toda la saga de Contra y sin duda uno de los mejores videojuegos de Super Nintendo. Saludos desde Perú.
This and hard corp is my most favourite contra game. Followed up by another two games in Famicom 👍. Very enjoyable playthrough from Valis77 here, World Of Longplays youtuber. Thumb up for Emperor Gava epicness in this game too👍👏👍👏.
GOD I love how this game was so extra back then. "Sir we have a lock on the enemy ship! Should we launch the nukes?" "No. I have a better idea. We're gonna launch our regular missiles at it, and we'll have Bill and Lance jump from missile to missile while shooting at that ship with their pulse rifles!" "Sir that idea is..." "Manly that's what it is! There's no point winning this war if we can't kill these bastards in the most epic, manliest, hardcore way possible! Launch the missiles!"
One of the best soundtracks for a video game ever made!
One of the best sounds in general. Just listen to those gunshots and explosions, man!
For me it was STAGE 2, 3, AND 4. BEST SOUNDTRACK EVER.
This and gradius 3
UN Squadron's soundtrack has to be mentioned when talking about the best.
One of the greatest games of my childhood.
"Let's attack aggressively!"
Manliest line in video game history.
Lol yeah 🤣
*The Alien Wars begin!*
Me: "Yeah!"
"It's time for revenge".
Me: "YEAH!"
"Let's attack aggressively".
Me: *"YEA......* wait, what?"
i even imagined stalone's voice saying it
Best non-toxic manliest line
Please note that there is no exclamation mark. Which makes it even more badass
I feel so proud to have spent my childhood playing this topclass game and championing at it.
hell yeah 🤘
👍👏👍👏
Sameeee
Same
Me and my siblings played this all the time. Great game man
I used to love playing this game with my older cousins back in the 90s. Glad to see it again after so long!
ñ90
Maybe just my opinion but this game was INTENSE for it's time. Still is!
Contra 3 is total fucking madness. Great game.
So I'm not the only one who thought it was intense 😳
Yes it is but I don't like the soundtrack nearly as much as super c
It is intense and thats why its a great game, cheers ^0^.
@@chenjinguo i THINK THE BEST OF THE SERIES
Lmao so sick. “Its time for revenge” “lets attack aggressively”
Dude that sound track too man
The Japanese opening was even better when translated, but can only remember the last line, it wasn't let's attack aggressively, it was "I'll never forgive those bastards."

Fuckin awesome man
These are the games every boy should grow up with. Perfect summer games.
YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS I ROLEPLA Y TO THEM ALL THE TIME TRAIN IN REALLIFE AND ADD THEN IN MY MUSIC REMIXES

Im female. Is it still ok i grew up with this ;)
my children grew whit this...playing with me (me , playing the dark hair marine, they, blond one) ha ha..
cat cadman
No.
My and brother played this as kids all the time he passed away but we will always have memories RIP Jacob
Definitely in the Top 10 of best videogames ever made. It's ridiculous how good this game is.
The father of metal slug, definitely better.
@@Diggarci metal slug is alright but contra is fantastic
I can't even fathom
until you tried playing Contra: Hard Corps
This game is good, but not Hard Corps good
The game itself is already awesome, but the music is what makes it for me an all-time gem! PURE NOSTALGIA
I'm proud I beat this game with my son many times. He was born in 2004.
Your son kicks ass bro!
Best Contra game in the whole series.
Contra hard corps has a word with you.
Better than hard corps.
@@logria10 contra 3 is graphically and musically superior,but hard corps have
4 characters
more weapons
more bosses
more difficulty
more endings
more replay value
@@zengram Yes, it has more replay value, but Contra 3 still better for me. Better music, better graphics, better level design and harder in hard mode. Hard Corps is a great game though, no doubt.
I like Contra Hardcorps better.
This masterpiece is another timeless classic. The Alien Wars is my favourite part of Contra.
One thing i learned from Contra is this:
If were ever invaded by aliens, call Bill and Lance. They'll take care of it
Find the pilot of the Vic Viper while you're at it. More aliens are probably lurking in the nearby outer space.
+RodriguezRacer 456 And don't forget Jeff Goldblum.
+Exeron Alien Apocalypse Squad
Don't ever forget to bring along some Ellen Ripley badassery along the way
Funny, we have been invaded by them already
Game was so difficult when I was young, barely got past stage 2, fast forward to 2022 and I finally beat it after all those years. Magnificent game for its time and the memories.
Dude. That was intense. Unparalleled action for snes. Rock n roll
11:57 my favorite boss entrance.
*HERES ALIEN!*
Peekaboo shalom namaste 🙏 💀
@@angerypika4500 don't you mean Big Fuzz? that's the robot's name
best intro ever, I agree, this is what stress looked and felt when I was a kid
I use to be scared of that thing lmao
I just came here to say this game is fucking hard
+Martín Agüero Yeah, I agree. I've been playing Contra III: The Alien Wars and Ninja Gaiden II (NES). Two badass games that have some of the best artwork that I've ever seen for 2D Action games.
@@Celestial07 Ur not the onLy one ok
It was easy back in the day
@Matrixnukum you should upload a clip
The 3rd stage on normal mode was hard for me
Idek how I beat the game
Desde Perú un gran juego.......me hace recordar mi adolescencia .....y Mario bros......saludos generación de los 90`s CALLAO
Until today i consider myself a good gamer, this guy is a complete pro
Nainco07 agreed! 😱
Uno de los mejores títulos de Súper Nintendo.!!
COBRA 10 Posiblemente el mejor.
Konami, siempre! 👍🏻
Espero que Konami nos siga sorprendiendo con sus fántasticos juegos
Hoy lo estuve jugando
"Let's attack aggressively!"
good alien invasion plan there Lance....
"Let's do mean stuff" - "way cool"
perdon
Probably That's Why That Green Tank Thingy Shoots Overboard
It's time for Revenge
One of the greatest games ever made
Ahhh the memories
Nic & Andrea Hills b
the best SNES game!
GOLDEN ERA OF NINTENDO
@@harveyruiz7332 Honestly I prefer Mega Man 7, but Contra 3 is just great
@@estebangamer636yt2 also great game...but yes...is matter of taste
still loving the intro of KONAMI snes games....
I paid bloody tears to finish this game, very challenging! What a memories!!
These throwback longplays are a great way to watch gaming evolve, via the scenic route ^^
This is more than just a platform game, it is an epic adventure. The guns, the sounds, the bosses, the creatures, the machines, the pace, the music, etc. Awesome game.
This game is so awesome. This made me love Contra so much back then
Eu e meu irmão André jogávamos juntos esse jogo no nosso Super Nintendo em 2002. E nesse ano de 2022 faz 20 anos que jogamos.
Boas lembranças 😀😀👍👍
You don't know how many memories this brings back Thank You
The world was in danger, then some random soldier with scatter gun came, and kicked ass. THE END
This game was 20 years ahead of its time.
More like 2 years but thats a lot in video-game time
i still remember as a kid the first time i saw that plane coming out towards the screen and thinking the snes is a Beast lol
this game always amuses me especially the theme and gameplay Congratulations World of Lonplays for playing a great game :)
I never really took a moment to consider how absolutely fucking crazy this whole game is... I was too busy enjoying playing it back in the day but when you watch it back... konami must have been on a fucking shit load of drugs haha!
oh and it gets even better when you read the actual plot of the games, like holy shit. yet nobody has done a video about the crazy plot of these games, like che guevara is the intergalactic president, the alien giant worm from the first game is hitler, he and the skull with snake arms have an organization called red falcon (yes all the tanks and shit are theirs.)
Esse Game Marcou Muito A Minha Infância ♡
Gotta love the player suicide at the end. The icing on the cake for a fantastic game.
Every time he skipped the spread shot I died a little inside.
Konami made the best collaboration games
I definitely agree the Konami/Nintendo collaborations were AWESOME
Pretty good graphics and music for an early SNES game.
Stage two use to always trip me out but man once you get the hang of it its freaking sweet good you mkaing me feel old now lol!!
Used to love playing this co-op with my brother back in the early 90s, the good old days...
15:04 That was the funniest Robot /Alien enemy in the game.
Especially how it would walk like a ostrich when it touches the road.
Nightmare fuel as a kid
Thank you for taking me back to one of my favorite SNES games! I still have both the system and the game but both of my controllers are busted!😥😥 The SNES was a great system!!
I used to play this along with Super Mario Bros., MK3, SF 2, Sonic Wings, Gradius III, Sunset Riders and Top Gear on arcade. Ahh my childhood days! Back when life is simple
one of my fave snes games-like an arcade in your own home!awesome😀👍
Let's attack aggressively. You know, instead of passively, where we hand out leaflets and hope the aliens notice our campaign.
@TeamPendragon tea and biscuits 😹😹😹

Act raiser 2. It's not even fun on hard difficulty.
1 of my all time fav snes games, this game BLEW me away.
One of my fav games of all time
never finished it on hard, was too hard lol. One of the best game of the SNES
another hit from nintendo: SUNSET RIDERS
This game was definitely ahead of it’s time, the music also made this game epic!
Amó este canal, nuevo suscriptor!!
This one is my 2nd favourite after Super C. Love how extensively SNES Mode 7 was used in this, quite advanced for an early title in the console life.
I love games that try new things every level I especially love the overhead levels and that one level where’s your on a motorcycle and then next thing you know your hanging on a helicopter and then your shooting Aliens and then your fighting a Brain and then it turns into a spider made from heads and starts chasing you up the helicopter, HOLY SHIT THERES JUST SO MUCH STUFF GOING ON IN THIS GAME it a perfect demonstration of what the Super Nintendo is capable of
such beautiful nostalgic memories. Those times. Glad I've had them
Best Contra game of all times.
Hard Corps the best,contra 3 good game...
Used to play this with my brother as kids. Great game. Rip kevin❤
Sem dúvida. Um dos melhores que já vi
My cousin and I used to spend hours playing this game. We were so happy, always having fun trying to beat the game even though we couldn’t defeat the last boss.

Man, Contra and Super C were hard but this is something else
The music in this game holds up extremely well.
I saw a post and it said 5 most important games in your youth/teen years and this game made it to my list.
Contra 3 The Alien Wars is ABSOLUTELY AWESOME and STUNNINGLY AMAZING
On the Super Nintendo. BRING ON THE SPREADGUN. 🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩
Damn this guy is crazy good. I remember it took my pops and I a year and some change to finally pass this back in the day. Such a good memory.
The first game I ever played. It sits in my head daily and I don't hate it.
This was the first SNES game I ever played. My jaw dropped in amazement when the first level started
4:27 The best version of the Contra victory music.
stage 4 is the best action stage in a game.
love these old consoles ❤️
i was just on my Fairchild Channel Fun, the other day ! 🎮
One of my favorite SNES Games ever.
Fantastic run, why the speed switching between guns in some of your boss fights, does that do more damage?
This game is on the EPIC list!
I finally finished Contra 3 The Alien Wars today which is the hard move/true ending version! Oh my god, this video game was gorgeous, emotional, wonderful and amazing!!!!!!!!!

I think that 100% of people born after 2000 cant finish the first level.
Yes,i have a super Nintendo (i'm 2007),it's true
No
I’m 2006 and I have a shit tone of those so ima tell you if I ever finish it ok dude
HEY RICKY AL YOU LITTLE DUDE I FINISHED THE GAME 100 % WITH THE GODAMN ONLY FIRST WEAPON
I can finish it with no problem, I just have issues with Stage 4
the music tho
if im correct the sequel to this was Contra: Hard Corps for the sega genesis, the best contra ever made in my opinion :)
You're correct, because Contra Hard Corps took place after a few years of The Alien Wars, you can see it when the oldman told about the Colonel having alien cells
Nothing beats Contra III is better than anything out there in every single way...
I want to know where Bill Rizer now during the events of hard corps?

This game owned me and my brother life 😆. Omg we were so hooked on this game.
Who remembers 'Mode 7'? That's what gave us the upper hand on the mega drive :)
I bet my money that the sountrack of the last stage was inspired by the "Aliens" movie. Top notch video game making here!
One of the best games on the Super Nintendo .I have been playing it again on the snes mini what a game .
GOD I love how this game was so extra back then.
