    Contra, easily one of the most popular NES games. I haven't played it in a long time until just a few days ago, when me and a friend started playing. I decided to do a speed run and here it is :D. Slipped a couple times in stage 3 and in stage 7 Should have skipped the B as it took too long and I really didn't need it. Oh well, enjoy.

      Carlos Santander, During the start of the game when the title is moving across the screen, quickly push up, up, down, down, left, right, left, right, b, a, b, a, start (or select, start for two players). I've had this code memorized since I was a kid. I thought everyone knew about it. Let me know if it works for you.

  • @DavidWonn
    @DavidWonn 5 лет назад +4

    Something is very bizarre about this video. The first Rapid power up exploded on its own, and Spread shots aren’t initiating in 5 directions. Spread is only supposed to fire in fewer directions when there are more than 5 but fewer than 10 bullets already on the screen.
    Also note the alternation of Spread shot directions going left then right in stage 2. This is not at all what happens on the NES version.
    The biggest clue that something is wrong is that the wall guns in both bases never fire toward the player at angles, but just straight ahead.
    Please justify these discrepancies. Either your emulation is faulty or your game is modified.
    Compare with a recent Contra video on my RUclips channel, recorded from my iPad, playing the NES on a CRT TV to see the differences I am talking about.

      It's probably because of NES sprite limit. One scene that convinced me was the boss fight on Stage 4 (Base2), the heads didn't blink at all and suddenly they appear to be teleported here and there.

      Y H You May be right on that point, but the wall guns in stages 2 and 4 never do what they’re doing here. They’re only firing ahead and never toward the player. No sprite limitation would cause this particular anomaly, so I still think either the emulation is faulty or the ROM itself is corrupt or modified.
      I’m not taking away from the skill of the player, but something in the description needs to say this isn’t being played on an original cartridge on an original NES.

    I was never able to get past like stage 3 as a kid. Apparently pre-firing is the key? Unfortunately, girls are not a fan of this
