You probably got that time a little wrong. The record time I can find is 9 and a half minutes, and that was using emulators and cheats.
the end heart was a joke..especially with the s gun
you just walk up to the side..shoot diagonally..its done..occasionally you have to move for a spider (exc in 2 player, one shoots diagonally, the otehr covers your back)

I'm remembering "up, up, down, down, left, right, left, right, A B B A, start". If it wasn't Contra, I'm sure it was something else.
almost every konami game used this

Up Up Down Down Left Right Left Right B A Start.
30 Lives.
He's right. I always threw in "..Select Start" at the end, but pressing select didn't do anything

History
The Konami Code was created by Kazuhisa Hashimoto, who was developing the home port of the 1985 arcade game Gradius, a scrolling shooter released on the Famicom and Nintendo Entertainment System in 1986. Finding the game too dificult to play through during testing, he created a code which gives the player a full set of powerups, which are normally attained gradually throughout the game. Also, the code entered backwards would award the player 30 lives. For whatever reason, he did not remove the code when testing was finished. The code has continued to be present in Gradius sequels and spin-offs, including Gradius III, which actually destroys the player's ship upon entering the original code.
Arguably the best-known example of the Konami Code is in the 1988 Famicom/NES version of Contra, where using the code increases the player's lives from 3 to 30. Due to the game's intense difficulty, many Contra players became reliant on the code to finish the game, earning it the title "The Contra Code".
The popularity of Gradius and Contra has closely associated the Konami Code with the gaming era of the 1980s, and some "old-school" gamers even consider it a badge of pride to be able to recite the code from memory. The code, however, has appeared in several newer PlayStation 2 games, including Silent Hill 3 and Metal Gear Solid 2. It even shows up in Konami's Bemani line of music games, such as Dance Dance Revolution and DrumMania. The code has further been featured on various t-shirts and other merchandise.
