Contra (NES) James & Mike Mondays

"This week James and Mike play the beloved and nostalgic Contra!

Contra is one of the most known and remembered video games from the 8-bit era. The simple yet fun gaming mechanics attracted people of many demographics and ages and brought kids together to shoot out some bullets on the enemies! It went on to become a whole video game series, releasing new titles in the series on many different consoles following the NES.

In the original 8-bit Contra, you take control of two commandos that go by the names Bill "Mad Dog" Rizer and Lance "Scorpion" Bean. The premise of this game is to destroy the terrorist group called the Red Falcon Organization, whose plan is to take over the entire Earth! The games' story slightly varied from region to region, however - the Japanese version was set way in the future, taking place on a fictional "Galuga archipelago" that is near New Zealand. The North American version's manual states that it takes place on an unnamed South American Island, and the terrorist organization if changed to an alien entity. But keep in mind, no matter which version you play, you are sure to kick and shoot some alien ass!

It was released in 1987 and is a run-and-gun game, published by the company Konami. The most popular version of the game was released on the Nintendo Entertainment System, (called Probotector in Europe) and the simple layout of the controller was a perfect match with this game, Contra.

In this episode, James and Mike take a look at and play through Contra, and... with no infamous Konami Code, which, I'm sure we have all used at least one time or another, but they take a stab at playing through without it!
