There were some technical issues with it, plus nobody had played any games in quite some time so I took it down.

[quote=TheMalcolmConnection;293833]"Arguably the best-known example of the Konami Code is in the 1988 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"."

People can't beat Contra in less than three lives?! HA. Losers.[/quote]

I played Contra on JNES without "cheats." However what I did do was constantly save so whenever I lost a life I'd go back to the save point. It took me well over a 100 loads to beat the game. How someone could reasonably expect a person to pull that off is beyond me. And all for what? A crappy 8bit picture of a helicopter leaving an island forget it.
