That sounds unbelievable. But if it's a legitimate claim, I congratulate you. That's one of the hardest games ever to play normally, without the Konami code's 30 extra guys. To not even die is pretty incredible.

30? I thought it was 50...I'd never have beaten that game without all those lives.

I did it too when I was 8 years old. I consider it one of my greatest accomplishments ever. I could never beat the game nowadays.

I don't know about 15 minutes (which is extremely impressive) but I never thought Contra was that difficult, with or without the 30 lives.


I cant do the 15 mins tho

Now, that would be impressive. So much so that I think you're lying.
