that was perfect except when he got the mushroom card instead of the star card. he must have fucked up so many times trying to make that video, one little mistake and it fucks up the whole run.

he intended for that.

"8 - As for the clear panel of 1 being possible and taking the saw?
-> As conjectured, the star is evaded in order to avoid 5UP."

Not sure why.

erm erm erm...

Because it takes time for the Star to fly up and enlarge and for all the effects to occur. He wanted to beat the game as quickly as possible.

I want to see him beat the game without whistles, now.

Nobody could do the whole game in one run without fucking up a *lot*.. Alot of the levels that he skipped are more difficult than the ones he played and there is a hell of a lot more of them (probably 6 or 7 times more work)...

Well I don't know if you guys noticed, but the video is fast forwarded a bit. He accelerates too fast to run, and when he presses Down on the white block in level 3, he goes behind the objects a three or so seconds too early.

Trust me, I tried it on my NES the other day. I bet it actually took him closer to 15 minutes or so to beat it. Cheapo.

Here's a clip of a guy completing Contra in 13 minutes.

Contra done in 13 min

Contra, is that aka Probotector or something here in Europe? I think Contra was the American (or Japanese maybe) name..

Anyway, would be cool to see more videos like these. Anyone got any or know where to find some?

He used an emulator not the actual NES I think. And also, seeing as he's japanese aren't there differences between NTSC and PAL?

That was the "Konami" code, because it worked in a bunch of games made by Konami (gradius, contra, etc.)

...sounds to me that a lot of TA are former NES-addicts
