I mean, I get most of your points. I was also young with my older brother playing it. I just assumed everyone knew about the old Konami code, but I got it from my older brother so idk.
I just know 3 hits and game over is a hard for Contra. We always used the code to get 30 lives. Much props to you for beating the game without it.
Idk, I have a vivid memory of playing the game, I remember all the weapons and stages, but I don’t remember having ever input the Konami code, although I do know of it nowadays obviously.
Perhaps my older brother knew it? I don’t know. 30 lives seems like it would just never end, basically.
My main point was rather that the article said it was harder as a co-op? I think it was easier, maybe.
I don’t know man, it’s been more than a quarter of a century. All I remember is having had fun. I think that’s the main point.
The internet really wasn’t a thing, we didn’t speak English, and we we’re 6 and 8.
We didn’t know about any cheat codes, my man.
