Super Contra features 5 differente stages, set in a military base, in the jungle and in the aliens lair. Some of them had also mutated in some strange kind of alien form and our two heroeas has to fight them and normalize again the situation. Sometimes ehrn the action is more intense you can see some flickering but this is quite normal for the NES.īill and Lance has just defeated Red Falcon Organization and they’re sent on another mission: the aliens have taken over a military base and they control most of the tropps there.

The real plus in Super C are not just the graphics themselves (anyway really good) but the fact that even with a lot of sprites on screen the game has no slowing and you can always play at maximum speed. Really a fun game!Īpart from the classic intro screen when the game title slides from the right of the screen, the intro sequence is the one where our protagonist go down from his helicopter to land on the enemy base with a battle-like background with menacing clouds. The fast pace of the game, its arcade style and the fact that is not so difficult were all key factors and I’ve been immediately hooked up. Actually I’m not a big fan of robots and shooting game but the first tinme I’ve played Super C I was very impressed. I’ve played Super C for the first time on my NES Mini because I’ve never owned the cartridge (neither the european version, Probotector II) probably my parents didn’t like a game in which the robots were endlessly shooting enemies. Sincerely I’ve never understood why they did this… The backgrounds and the gameplay remain unchanged but the plot is a bit different. It shows some different from one version to the other: While the american version (Contra family) features two marines as main characters, the european (Probotector family) it’s like a robot shoot ’em up.

It's not a huge loss though, it's not a particularly amazing miniboss fight. In the arcade version a tank popped up right about here, but it seems that it couldn't be bothered to turn up for the NES versions. Plus it turns out that my robot soldier loses his weapon pick-up if he's killed, and they really do make a difference in this game. Two deaths and you lose a continue and get sent back to the very start of the level. In fact most things lead to instant death in this game getting shot, walking into an enemy, walking just a little too close to an explosion. But it turns out that jumping on enemies just leads to an instant death. I tried just jumping on this turret the first time one of them popped up.
