[DS] Contra 4

Gradius 3 started the bastardized version of it. I believe Gradius Gaiden and Parodius feature evil Konami code as well, with Parodius just stripping you of all power ups, complete with your character exclaiming "OH MY GOD!"

The machine gun is actually good in this game. Homing and Machine Gun combo helps against the stage 2 boss immensely.

How ya doing, buddy?

This has never been truer in the case of any Contra. Save maybe the Arcade Contras. Also, FUCK THE SPECIAL MISSIONS.

There's nowhere I can't reach.
