Contra 4 - does the Konami code only work on the 'original' once it's unlocked?

I can't seem to get the Konami code to work on Contra 4. I have yet to beat it.

I've read conflicting posts saying that 'Y' replaces 'A' or that it only applies to the 'original' version once it's unlocked.

Can someone clarify?

thanks
