The best game in all the series, fast, intense and concrete are just simple adjetives for this game.
This game was one of the best games on the NES, the fast action, and the intense of its stages made a excelent game. and may be one of the biggest tittles that dont go to the game boy advance on the classic NES section.
but the older videogamers always remember the danger of the alies against the humas and the figth for used the player blond and with the blue pants.
after this game Super Contra was the second game in the series with the cheat for just 10 lifes not 30 as Contra, make that Super Contra a harder game but not the unbetable, these games was the best of this saga the others games just are tittles.
