About this episode
If you've ever wanted to feel like an action star then look no further than Contra. The 80's oozed macho and this game is a perfect time capsule of that time. Join us as we talk about one of the hardest games of all time, how it popularized the iconic Konami Code, and what it's like to play it for the first time here in 2022.
