Make sure you have at least a laser or machine gun, preferably at full power, then pound on the targets. It's pretty much impossible without a power up.

Wrong, just ultra tap your Y button the moment he finishes attacking. I did it like that, and it worked fine

BTW: I don't need boss help anymore.

PS. I beat the game only losing one life, and that's cause I missed a jump at the stupid rocket part.

 

[myuusmeow]

I'll try again...I have the low power spread gun and it would never decapitate the dang thing.

BTW, to get the NES games, do you do the challenges or just complete the game on hard etc.

 

[Grimalkin]

Contra NES = 4 Challenges.
Super C = 8 Challenges
That Robot Guy = 12 Challenges.

Etc. There's 40 challenges.

WOW I need 30 lives real bad!

 

[Lawzer]

I'm not great at the game, but I've learned the first level pretty much inside out by now, so I've started messing with things like the machine on rails that shoots those huge hadokens. I was strafing back and forth and jumping while shooting at it when I looked at my lives and suddenly I had 99. Must have accidentally put in the Konami code

 

[Zaraf]

The Konami code only upgrades your weapons. And only once per continue. If you use it again, you'll die. And you have to pause the game when you use the Konami code.

Chronos Twin is like ^ for me, i cant play more than one or two stages per session.

 

[Rulza]

Lol, I can't make it past the first boss on easy.

Hardest game I've ever played I think o.o

 

[Zaraf]

Ok, now that I've practiced it a bit, I can go pretty good on this now.

I can kill every single boss without dying EXCEPT for that freaking underwater boss. I ALWAYS get nailed by his spikes at least ONCE! I can never manage the whole fight without getting hit by his spikes!

I started with normal, and then practiced on hard. I gave easy a try and it really is VERY easy. You automatically get the level 2 versions of all weapons (normally you have to get the weapon twice), and some major hazards are no longer there either. Like the boulders in the waterfall area. Also, you get like 9 or 10 lives I think instead of the normal 3 per continue.

Yeah, this game is tough when it's new, but after a bit of practice, it isn't so bad. Although I still find myself dying from the odd zerg rush (too many enemies in the screen than I can handle).

 

[trigun0x2]

Lolz, it's not THAT hard man. Lolz

 

[Noitora]

Lolz, it's not THAT hard man. Lolz

hahaha,you must be joking

 

[Zaraf]

Nah, he's right...it isn't THAT hard once you get used to it. And it doesn't take long to get used to it since the controls are so simple. Often, games with complex controls which are difficult take a LONG time to get used to.

Btw, does anyone know who those two girls you are unlock as characters are? It seems kinda odd having two half naked girls running around shooting at aliens

 

[darkshadow51]

Guys, keep playing, at first I was like you but now I can even pass the first stage on hard without getting hit once and with 2 more lives lol.

 

[bobrules]

Finally beat hard mode















with cheats

 

[War]

Ugh, this game is frustrating. I think I just suck at Contra.
No, really. I couldn't beat level 1 in EASY. /failed

 

[Doggy124]

I have heard that if you play in co-op(multi player)mode it would be easier.

 

[superkrm]

Not on the waterfall stage

 

[cubin']

Been playing quite a bit and have gotten used to the difficulty. You just have to be really careful and try and remember the places where you get the angles right to avoid bullets while still dishing out damage.

Trying to beat hard but keep getting stuck on lvl 2 boss
