    This is the longplay of Contra, an action, platform and run and gun game, initially released for Arcades in 1987 and then for home consoles. This is the Arcade version.

    Contra is set in the distant future of the year 2633 A.D., when the evil Red Falcon Organization have set a base on the fictional Galuga archipelago near New Zealand in a plot to wipe out humanity. Two soldiers, Bill Rizer and Lance Bean of the Earth Marine Corp's Contra unit (an elite group of soldiers specializing in guerrilla warfare), are sent to the island to destroy the enemy forces and uncover the true nature of the alien entity controlling them.
    The game can be played solo or with a friend in co-op mode. One player controls Bill Rizen (the blond-haired commando wearing a white tank top and blue bandana), and the other player as Lance (the shirtless dark-haired commando with a red bandana). Characters use a machine gun as their default weapon with infinite ammo, which can be modified with items obtained from pill box sensors and flying item capsules. Each item provides a different configuration for the weapon, from rapid fire, fire, explosives and laser beam. There are also two auxiliary power-ups that only appear in certain areas when the character is armed with his default gun: a rapid-bullets upgrade that increases the firing speed of the gun's shots and a barrier that makes the character invulnerable for a limited period . With the exception of the machine gun and the laser gun, each item comes in the form of a Falcon-shaped symbol marked with a letter representing its function (F, S, R, and B). Shots can be fired in eight directions. The stages are divided into a traditional 2D platform and stages inside corridors, which show a well-made 3D for the time.
    The promotional materials for the US arcade version downplays the futuristic setting of the game, with the manual for the later NES and home computer versions changing the game's setting from the future to the present day and the location from Galuga to the Amazon Jungle.
    It's a very intense action game. Little is said about this Arcade version, as the Contra franchise has become much more popular on consoles. But this Arcade version is a part of gaming history and helped to give games that intense 80's action vibe. The video was made with 2 players.

    Hope you like it.

      @@xRavenXP Well, there are two ideas. One, assuming you can do your stylish Mario-game art with Paper Mario sprites/animation, I'm thinking a Christmas in Fahr Outpost in TYD. The other idea is simply decorating World 4 (Super Mario Bros 2 NES), Ice Land (Super Mario Bros 3 NES) and the ice cavern in Super Mario World. These cold places would be great places to celebrate the jolly season, and a compilation in the vid could be cool. Or do you only do SNES art, not NES? If so, you could add the snowy level from Super Mario Bros SNES (in the NES version all there are are white trees, so that's a VAGUE hint of winter).
      By the way, do you animate modern 3D Mario, like NYD can?

      @@xRavenXP Hmm, he's got a pretty interesting idea. I can see Christmas decorations in Fahr Outpost, World 4, Ice Land, and the ice cavern. Of course, I've seen your Christmas SMB2 video, but I think John just means world 4 in particular, since in the game, that's the only wintery place. Are you thinking about making his requests?
