DS #1664: Contra 4 (USA)

[iritegood]

Sweet.

I just wish I brought my DS with me today.
Can't wait to try this out (never played the demo)

 

[jalaneme]

is this any good? i tried the arcade classic version for DS and i was bored to death :S is this 3D or 2D?

 

[gov78]

ok where do i enter the contra code (some had to ask)

 

[cubin']

Awesome! duel screen contra works really well. they did a really good job on this.

mad dog black man is no.1

I'm surprised that this game is so small in filesize!

 

[cubin']

This really lives up to the hype IMO. absolute perfection. Any of you contra vets got any complains about it?

 

[amy test]

ok where do i enter the contra code (some had to ask)

pause the game, then enter the code..
enter it twice for full effect..

Pause the game and do it.

You get a weapons upgrade but if you do the code more than once you die.

For those who don't know the code is up, up, down, down, left, right, left, right, B, A, Start.

Also the music is different in Hard mode, its like the original Stage one. I tried Hard mode first and it did me up the bum, went home and never called me back.

this stupid game is killing the site

 

[CockroachMan]

OMG! SO MANY GOOD GAMES COMING!!! I DON'T HAVE TIME TO PLAY THEM ALL!

 

[Torte]

Damn, you guys are scaring the bejeezus outta me! I just read the IGN rev and it said that when you die and lose all your lives, you gotta restart from the very beginning again - old-school styles. If that's true... shit.

 

[cubin']

what do you think so far hadrian? don't have time to play anymore of it yet. Does it live up to the Contra name? Never played the old ones much so don't know.

 

[HipN]

Yeah this game is hard as hell.. I made it to the boss, but I dunno how to beat it.

 

[Lacrimosa]

is this 3D or 2D?

3d Contra is out of the question! Authentic Contra-badass-expirience is always 2d and of course only for kick ass gamers!

To me, that's the best DS game for this year, and in the 5 best DS games ever. If someone disagrees, he's just wrong.

To play this game on G6 I trimmed the rom.

Wait for the cheats...

 

[kaspal]

shiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiite... yesterday i was waiting for it non stop, and here it is now!!!... dang it!...
** out to play C4 **

 

[slvrdrgn123]

damn it. wish i was home so i could play this right now...NOOOOO

 

[Torte]

You mean there are bosses where you actually gotta figure out their weaknesses?! I haven't played the 3D ones so I can't speak for the whole series, but since when was Contra that "hard core"?

So who's gonna finish this first? Take a photo of the final screen if you do

Man, I wish my friends who are gamers didn't suck so much... sure would be nice to have some proper help.

 

[reilina]

does it have wifi? coz it would be cool if it has.
ive played the nes and snes version, i must say
its really fun playing it with somebody.

 

[Torte]

No Wi-Fi and no co-op for the retro games AFAIK. Ok got it now... let's see if I can beat the first level before lunch.
