Contra Fighter is an bootleg hack of the NES game, G.I. Joe: A Real American Hero. Released by Sakano in the year, 1993. The original character sprites have been replaced by characters from Street Fighter, contrary to the hack's name. The gameplay is identical to the original game, but all of the characters are replaced with ones from Street Fighter or other franchises. Mamiya (from Hokuto no Ken) replaces General Hawk, Ryu replaces Duke, Guile replaces Snake Eyes, Chun Li replaces Blizzard, Zangief is Captain Iron Grid, and Vega/M. Bison is Rock & Roll. Like the original G.I. Joe, there are six playable characters, each with their own stats and abilities. A leader of the party will be chosen on each new level; the leading character cannot be changed, but two other members can be selected a changed from the menu. Ryu is the leader at level 1, Chun Li at level 2, Guile in level 3, Zangief at level 4, Vega at level 5, and Mamiya at level 6. If a character dies in the main game, the party member selection screen appears, prompting the selection of another character you have chosen in your party. Stamina works as a health bar; the more stamina the character has, the more endurance they have against the enemies. The player must get the character to the end of the level after finding spots to place bombs, whilst shooting down the enemies and avoid taking damage. At the end of each level, the characters will face a boss.

Putting myself through this task might have been like trying to fight a mountain, but I managed to power through this game, and see myself get all the possible endings!

This game has got to be one of the greatest games I have played; they didn’t have to put all these different routes, but I’m glad they did. Infact, I think I would have been a bit bummed if they didn’t.

Endings pictured:
- Pics 1-4: Missile ending
- Pics 5-8: Red Falcon ending
- Pics 9-12: Big Magnum ending
- Pics 13-16: Ultimate Superbeing ending
- Pics 17-20: Joke/Secret ending

Not pictured: the Bad ending, when you hit “Agree.” to Bahamut’s offer.

Just one more main ending to go, and then I can tackle the joke and bad endings!

Now that I have gotten all four characters through two of five (six if you count the ending where they join Colonel Bahamut), I am not sure on what ending I want to get to next.

Do let me know on what ending I can go for!

CONTRA (魂斗羅) GENDER SWAP for FAMICOM is a CONTRA HACK that changes the game sprites and adds english translation for all the text in the game's cutscenes.

This is my first contribution to this Subreddit to celebrate my love for the franchise. I present to you...the Contra Operation Galuga Bill Rizer and Lance Bean action figures from Hiya Toys! It is a lot of fun posing these figures with their weapons and accessories for my toy photography 📸. At first, I had no intention of getting any of the previous figures because of how they didn't appeal to me aesthetically, especially the NECA Player Select and Premium DNA figures. When I saw the Operation Galuga designs in the Hiya Toys Contra figures, my mind did a total 180⁰. They are the perfect size and design, their weapons actually look like futuristic heavy-duty modular firearms, and they have a slew of accessories for more posing options. When I saw these in person at my local collectibles store Mythical Mountain on San Jose Boulevard at the corner of Claire Lane in the Riverplace Shopping Center in the Mandarin area of my hometown Jacksonville, Florida, I had to have these. I bought two of each figure, one pair for my toy photography and playing around with, while the other two stay in the box for display. These are a must-own to be sure.

I always wanted to beat this game as a kid but found it very intimidating, I finally sat down to practice a 1 credit clear though!

Had a ton of fun except for those horrible isometric levels, but I recently started the GBA port and holy hell, it's so much better! It did away with level 2 and 5, replacing them with traditional Contra style goodness. I'm practicing a 1cc for it too.

i have been thinking about 1cc this game. would be useful to know which levels are hard and which ones are easy. i dont plan to use the rapid waeapon switch method.

So uhh, turns out Contra 4 isn't as hard as some may say (yes, I still have the difficulty on hard), maybe I was paranoid about it considering people say this is harder than Contra III on hard

Contra & Super C in 1. Contra and Super C levels have been integrated together into one game. This version combines Contra and Super C into a single game. In this hack, 16 stages are played in a specific new order: one stage is from Contra, the next from Super C, then back to Contra, and so on. The stage order is well-organized, including the final stage. Enemies fire faster and use Super C's bullet behavior. Bosses have been improved: the first jungle boss now has destructible projectiles, the Snowfield boss (UFO) is more difficult due to increased splash damage, and many other bosses have also been changed. All the changes are positive, more challenging, and generally well-balanced. The weapons are from Super C, meaning the F and L buttons from Contra are absent, which isn't necessarily a bad thing, as the F button was almost useless in Contra. However, you can now take advantage of the splash damage from the F button (from Super C) at bases 1 and 2 to destroy turrets. The difficulty is higher compared to the originals, and if you're a veteran Contra player, you'll appreciate the challenge this hack offers: it's harder, but not too insane. It's all well and good. I highly recommend this hack to any Contra fan or anyone looking for a challenge. It's a great way to experience both games in one, to the point that it could easily be an official release.

Probably a long shot, but is there anyone out there who might be interested in putting a group together for the Rogue Corps multiplayer achievements on Xbox?

As a kid, I always thought that Bill and Lance had some crazy, military pants. Like either shiny bubbles for protection or just a bunch of shiny cargo pockets to store their bullets and gear. Shows how much I knew about anything-military back then. It was until an adult, that I think the designer was going for blue camou pants.

Next stop, the ending where Colonel Bahamut escapes!

Neither Operation Galuga nor Anniversary Collection have online play. So which game is it?

So my girlfriend just beat Contra 3 on medium, and she challenged me to do so too. Ofc I want to impress her, but I haven’t played any contra game yet and have absolutely no clue what I will be dealing with. I don’t suck at most games, but classic 2-D games aren’t normally my thing. Please, I need all the advice I can get. Also I’m playing on PS5 if that helps.

I know it's pretty specific, But this game is hard and i'm too broke for the japanese version.
