Contra!
Played through Contra on the Famicom the other day. This was my first time ever beating it I feel this version is definitely superior to the NES version since it has a bit of a story, animated backgrounds like the leaves that move on the trees in the jungle, and some cut scenes.

I figured it must mean something different than what I first thought, but I kind … Continue reading

Apparently I’m not the only one who loves them either, creators of Famicom games do to. I have 5 different games staring these little guys. The … Continue reading
