00:00What's Crackalackin' Gamer Nation? You know this is me, John Gamus the Foe, here with a special birthday edition, slash stream, of a little gameplay of Contra Operation Galuga.
00:20So, pretty excited about this. So, yeah, let's enjoy this little birthday bash and play Contra.
00:32So that was pretty cool. I noticed there's this little pop-up here that says, Save Data Found. Oh, you like Castlevania, don't you? Play Arcade and Challenge Boats while listening to Dracula's Playlist.
00:44So I love that, right off the bat, the Metal Gear Solid reference there. Another Konami classic.
00:53But I guess apparently I can listen to some Castlevania music while I play Contra.
01:02So that is neat. Welcome back, Contra. Play Arcade and...
01:07Oh, probably because I also have the Contra Anniversary Collection, too, so...
01:14Oh, man, this title screen is literally fire. Like, that is so cool. Love it.
01:24Story mode? Alright, let's go for it, dude. It's normal.
01:30The player has HP meter and character perks when depletes every single life.
01:35Ooh, one hit kill. Ah, let's just do a health meter because it's just a new feature here, so...
01:41Hard...
01:43Hard...
01:43True Test Veterans, just an improvement mastery.
01:50Yeah, I want to get a hang.
01:53Hang of the scheme first.
01:54Learn the ropes.
01:55Okay, so we've got Lance or Bill.
02:09I think I would always pick Lance in the OG Contra.
02:15Oh, man, it's so exciting.
02:17Happy birthday to me.
02:19Sweet little loading screen here.
02:29So I think this is like, what, like a remake of the very first game on NES?
02:35Even though the game was originally in the arcade and then ported to NES, but yeah.
02:40But I digress.
02:42Let's hunt some aliens, boy.
02:54Kaluga, Archipelago.
03:01And that's the little new characters there.
03:08Whoa.
03:08Whoa.
03:08Whoa.
03:08Whoa.
03:08Whoa.
03:09Whoa.
03:09Whoa.
03:09Whoa.
03:09Whoa.
03:10Whoa.
03:10Whoa.
03:11Whoa.
03:11Whoa.
03:12Whoa.
03:21Why does her ancestor look like Simon Belmont from Castlevania?
03:26That's no coincidence.
03:39Six-one-one-one-one-one-one-one-one-one-one.
03:41T-A, five minutes, action signal, now.
03:46Let's review the mission details.
03:49As you know, a terrorist group called Red Falcon has been carrying out limited strikes around the globe.
03:55We've confirmed reports they've set up shop on the main island of Kaluga, following the meteor event earlier this year, the Federation immediately dispatched the GX Army, as they were in the vicinity for military exercises.
04:10They seem to be making headway until three days ago, when we lost contact.
04:16You're kidding.
04:17Gen 10 is the strongest unit in the Federation Army.
04:21No way some fringe upstarts took him out.
04:24Huh.
04:25Huh.
04:26Is this a blub?
04:27Of course.
04:28That dude's everywhere now.
04:29Not that that was bad, but he's always known for playing, like, the tough guy characters.
04:34Wolverine and Spike.
04:37While it's still unconfirmed, we should assume the worst.
04:41Apparently, the Red Falcon are more powerful than we realized.
04:45Speaking of which, our science division has some troubling intel of their own.
04:51Dr. Drake?
04:52Dr. Drake.
04:53Thanks.
04:54The Federation's interstellar satellite network detected a gravity anomaly.
04:58Something on Earth, emitting gravity waves strong enough to circle the planet.
05:03I see.
05:05Their source coordinates align squarely on the Galuga archipelago.
05:10This gives us reason to suspect the Red Falcon are developing gravity weapons.
05:16Gravity weapons?
05:18the Federation banned them decades ago that's right Lance we can't risk
05:24destructive power of that magnitude falling into the wrong hands my weapons
05:30division at Henriksen Industries confirms those readings are consistent
05:33with the components of a gravity bomb even just storing that thing improperly
05:38could cause tectonic shifts climate disturbances or worst case potential
05:43black hole bill Lance given the situation I think it's clear why the Federation
05:50enlisted our EMC Contra unit your primary objective is to engage Red Falcon
05:56ground forces confirm the source of those gravity waves and disarm it if at all
06:02possible locate the GX army and report back with their current status there's a
06:07Red Falcon stronghold not far from your drop infiltrate the base and apprehend
06:12their lieutenant his field Intel will help determine our next move our remote
06:19hideout missing super soldiers and a doomsday weapon hell of a Friday
06:27time to introduce ourselves hell yeah brother
06:39oh my god takes me back take a moment to practice movement jumping and shoot it guys
06:50something in Doyle tells me all contrast can jump a second time in midair or dash
06:55horizontally simply incredible you can aim with more precision by holding down aim
07:04lock oh a little dash
07:08one moment spreader tell you only one delivery network and we'll be sending
07:23three quick supply crops
07:25oh shit you wouldn't want to release cargo experiment with a variety of weapons

09:06that's gonna go play the word
09:08oh
09:10oh
09:12that's good

13:29entry point, uh, located, we clear to proceed, commander?
13:36Copy that, Falcon is obviously on alert, but we haven't seen anything unexpected.
13:45Apologies, commander, we should discuss the chopper attack.
13:48Yeah, we should, how'd they get a missile past our sensors?
13:54That's it exactly, it wasn't a missile.
13:57Oh, what?
14:00Whatever it was, our scans indicate organic matter.
14:05Organic? What exactly does this mean then?
14:08It means we have a good opener when we find the guy in charge.
14:13I'm ready if y'all are.
14:15Resume the mission.
14:17Locate Red Falcon's lieutenant for questioning.
14:20We'll update when we know more.
14:21Over and out.
14:24Great.
14:25That's the first stage, baby.
14:26I love how they really spiced up the first stage with the blood wall, the whole, like, little death trap there, like, it's amazing.
14:38Okay, moving on to stage two.
14:41Thanks.
14:43I guess we can give Little Riser a try here.
14:47Why not?
14:48We'll play a Steve Blum.
14:50I'm just joking.
14:51Heh heh.
14:53That dude's voice is everywhere.
14:54But his most iconic would definitely be Spike Spiegel for me.
15:01He can get a decent Wolverine, too.
15:08Yeah, buddy.
15:11Yeah, this game's fantastic, man.
15:14Love it so far.
15:19That reminds me, I need to be a shatter soldier on P.S. 2.
15:22Hope they don't mind if I borrow a hoverbike.
15:24No time to waste.
15:26Ooh.
15:28Hope it's like a section, maybe.
15:32Repeat enough enemies, and the bonus pod indicator will appear below your health bar.
15:37When you need a weapon, give me a call, and I'll send it right away.
15:41See, I'm just joking.
15:42Gotcha.
15:45One more down.
15:48Yeah, buddy.
15:50Woo!
15:50Ah-ha.
15:50Spread her, baby.
16:00Ah-ha.
16:01Whoa, crap.
16:02Woo!
16:03Close one.
16:05Fast and frantic.
16:08Woo, crap.
16:09Woo, crap.
16:10Woo, crap.
16:10I think this is going to be, like, the original bullet hell.
16:17It's like, right, man.
16:18Ha-ha.
16:21For a side-scroller, anyway.
16:23So, I just not...
16:24What'd you consider it?
16:26Like, a side-scroller?
16:27Shoot him.
16:28Oh, crap.
16:30Okay.
16:37Woo, girl.
16:39Well, this is better than a speeder backstage in, uh, Battletoads.
16:42Ha-ha.
16:43Oh, dodging necessary.
16:45Well, no, speeder-dodging fire, but, uh, enemy fire.
16:50Ah, crap.
16:51Oh, I love how they kept the old death sound.
16:54That's so cool.
16:55Don't shoot!
16:56Not one of them.
16:57Not anymore.
16:59Not anymore.
16:59Who the hell are you?
17:00Talk fast, Sophie.
17:01The name is Bradley.
17:02I'm just a merc, you know?
17:04Signed up for some easy money, but...
17:06These guys are terrorists, man.
17:08Stupid.
17:09The other guys were brainwashed, or something.
17:11They're like freaking zombies.
17:14What about you?
17:15I guess I'm different.
17:17They locked me up for some weird experiments.
17:19That's why I'm getting out.
17:21Now!
17:22So, how about that?
17:23Can we get rid of this island?
17:24Please?
17:26Strap in, Merc.
17:27Help me find Red Falcon's lieutenant.
17:30No way!
17:32You don't understand.
17:34Someone let me out.
17:36They're trying to kill me.
17:38I gotta get out of here.
17:40This guy for real?
17:42Gee.
17:44Oh?
17:45See?
17:47Thanks for the help.
17:48I gotta get out of here.
17:50Well, you still owe me.
17:52Oh, crap.
17:56Oh, no.
17:57These guys.
18:00Oh, crap.
18:01No, no, no.
18:03Freaking roller droids here.
18:06Oh.
18:09We're good.
18:10We're down.
18:12Get out of here, BB-88.

18:15Oh, second level, Booger.
18:26Oh, crap.
18:26I'll make this.
18:27I'll make this.
18:28Yeah.
18:29Oh, crap, crap, crap, crap.
18:37This is bad.
18:41God, it seems so rude.
18:43It still has that old-school Contra flavor with some new ingredients.
18:50Love it.
18:58Best birthday gift level.
19:01Ah, crap, crap.
19:05Stop talking.
19:06I'm dying.
19:06I'm dying.
19:09Yeah.
19:15Ooh, yeah.
19:16No.
19:16That's a little paperback.
19:19Game streak.
19:26Oh, forgot about the little dash.
19:31Okay, so dash kit.
19:32I guess, like, go to the side of the projectile.
19:40Oh, no.
19:42I got some credits.
19:44Okay, okay.
19:46Of course we can continue, sucka.
19:51So I'm over to the fat lady six.
19:56Oh, no.
19:56Come on, mother sickas.
20:10Please.
20:11Gotta wrap it.
20:12It's better.
20:14It's better spread than the cheese.
20:18Ah, crap.
20:19Woo, okay.
20:25All right.
20:26All right.
20:27Take it easy.
20:28Take it easy for ghosts.
20:40I have a BB-88 knockoffs here.
20:46Whoa, flamethrowers.
20:47I did not see, like, a fight because I never gave a chance to unleash it.
20:53Come on.
20:56Oh, I can do a mid-air.
20:57All right.
20:59Very fighting game.

21:10Back it up, son.
21:11Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
21:12Forgot about that bounce.
21:13That mid-air dash is amazing.
21:25Love it.
21:27Probably one of the best new features of this.
21:29Other than the health bar and requesting a weaponry.
21:38Yeah.
21:39Oh, crap.
21:40Great improvements.
21:43Go on.
21:49Oh, let's switch you, boo.

23:15Oh, my God.
23:17I think I got the health bar, man.
23:18Okay, so this is just like we're playing on the one-hit kill.
23:21Yeah.
23:22That would suck.
23:25So, I'm like, I gotta get my contra chops back here, man.
23:35Why'd I jump into that?
23:36That is killing me.
23:43Hold on.

24:51Yes, yes, yes.
24:53I can survive.
24:54I can survive.

24:57Stay in the life.
25:02Stop.
25:02Over.
25:03Right on.
25:04I like that one shot.
25:07Are you asleep in there?
25:08Die.
25:09Oh, look at this guy.
25:14I like the new camera angles here.
25:21What are you talking about?
25:21You just switched sides.
25:23Oh, crap.
25:25No.
25:27Son of a mother.
25:30Late.
25:32I'm giving up.
25:33I almost beat him.
25:34I'm pretty sure.
25:35Oh, let's see.
25:36Check out the perk shop.
25:37Perk shop.
25:41Pay level.
25:43Let's see.
25:43Adds limited vulnerability during dash.
25:46Build only.
25:48Increases height.
25:49Double jump.
25:50Launch.
25:51Enable scrapple.
25:53Hover.
25:55What is this?
25:55Very.
25:56That's cool.
25:57I like that.
26:00So, I got 200.
26:01That's kind of cool to have a segment, or they have a category for if you're broke.
26:16Affordable.
26:17Okay.
26:23I'd rather save up some.
26:24Wait.
26:25Is that Simon Belmont here?
26:26Okay.
26:26Okay.
26:26Mania mix.
26:35Retro mix.
26:44Alright.
26:45Let's mess around the soundtrack, shall I click?
26:48Do it, do it, do it, do it, do it, do it, do it, do it, do it, do it, do it, do it.
26:59Love it.
27:02Alright, where's the music?
27:04Let's see if I don't know.
27:07Voice over behind.
27:08Master.
27:09Okay.
27:10Don't say anything about the music.
27:12Or about the soundtracks.
27:13So, it's Challenger.
27:19Curious.
27:20Let's see.
27:21Race through the stage.
27:22Master.
27:23Loose condition.
27:24Receive damage.
27:25Timer.
27:31Well, there we go.
27:32That's how you switch the music.
27:34Okay.
27:34Okay.
27:35Okay.
27:35Because they said it's only an arcade and challenge mode for the music.
27:40Okay.
27:40Speedrun.
27:43Okay.
27:44Alright, let's try a speedrun with...
27:47I'm going to try Castlevania music.
27:49Why not?
27:57I really hope Konami releases the 3D Castlevania collection.
28:02So, it has, like, what, Castlevania City 4, Legacy of Darkness, the Lament of Innocence on PS2.
28:09I think it was, like, Curse of Darkness was another one, too.
28:13Let's attack aggressively.
28:15Heh heh.
28:16Oh, that's great.
28:17Love it.
28:18I just got to speedrun this.
28:29And survive.
28:33We're getting all these stuffies.
28:35All we're doing is speedrunning.
28:37Oh, shit.
28:38I was late.
28:39Alright, let's try that again.
28:40Try that again.
28:43Take two.
28:44Go away, go away.
28:56Ah, subtle.
28:57Should have stayed down.
28:58Just...
28:59Okay.
29:01Okay.
29:02Try again.
29:03Ooh.
29:04Come on.
29:05Ah!
29:06Crap.
29:10Woo!
29:10Uh, another one on, man.
29:15Alright.
29:15Alright.
29:16Just focus.
29:17Focus.
29:21Oh, what the heck?
29:23So, do you go underwater?
29:25Why can't I hide underwater?
29:26And they won't hurt me?
29:27What the heck?
29:29I think I just found an exploit here.
29:32Temporary exploit.
29:34Well, that's cool.
29:35So, you can hide underwater.
29:36And even the audio sounds like you're underwater.
29:39Which I like.
29:40That is so cool.
29:43Just gotta appreciate those, like, little details in the video.
29:49There we go.
29:53So, you ever want to hear the Castlevania music underwater?
29:57You can now.
30:01It's one of the main reasons to buy this game.
30:03Listen to your Konami soundtracks underwater.
30:07Alright.
30:08Oh my god.
30:09Wait, how did I fail?
30:18Where did I get shot?
30:20Oh, I called bullshit on that one.
30:21I'm sorry.
30:22That was just stupid.
30:27Alright, anyways.
30:27Okay, that was just ridiculous, stupid.
30:33But, that was probably on me, so it's all good.
30:43Oh shit!
30:44Okay.
30:44Again, I need to utilize the dashboard.
30:48I think that's it.
30:51I think I was just really, like, impressed with the underwater audio.
30:55What the heck, that is so freaking cool.
31:00What?
31:01Underwater audio.
31:04Knock it out!
31:07Okay, to be fair, I didn't really see that bullet coming when the enemy was on the screen right here, so...
31:12Yeah, let's go, sucka.
31:15Let's go.
31:17Let's go.
31:18Let's go!
31:22Yeah, there we go.
31:24That's how we do it.
31:25That's how we do it.
31:28Castlevania.
31:29Underwater rules.
31:30Oh, come on!
31:44That was the farthest they made it.
31:45Come on.
31:46Come on.
31:47I mean, I'm pretty proud of myself.
31:48Made a little bit of progress, but let's do it again.
31:53Let's see here.
31:59Okay, anyways.
32:00Back to the madness.
32:02Back to the madness.
32:09What do we got?
32:11Oh, fucking hell.
32:13That was silly.
32:15Let's utilize the water.
32:22There we go.
32:23Back to visits, baby.
32:25Here we go.
32:26Here we go.
32:26Oh crap.
32:34Oh crap.
32:35Oh crap.
32:47Oh crap.
32:49Oh, try to get me diagonally, huh?
32:52I don't think so.
32:55What?!
32:57Bullshit!
32:58Oh, the time ran out!
32:59Okay, the time ran out.
33:01That's why...
33:02Okay, now that explains it.
33:04At least the first time that that happened, you know?
33:06Cause I'm like, I know I didn't get hit by a bullet, so...
33:09Holy crap, you really do have to speed the run this way.
33:12So I better run and dash a lot.
33:15Alright, hold on.
33:18Run and dash and run and dash.
33:22Run and dash and run and dash.
33:25This will come here.
33:28It's okay, just do what I was doing.
33:33I think it's right there when I have to, like, deal with the stupid bots.
33:46Just slows me down.
33:48I've got 20 seconds.
33:49Crap.
33:50Okay.
33:51Let's go!
33:52Go, go, baby, go!
33:53Go!
33:54Go!
33:55Go!
33:56Go, go!
33:57Go!
33:58Go!
33:59Go!
34:00Go, go, go, go!
34:01Go!
34:02Get out of here!
34:03No!
34:04I don't know how far I am from the goal, but, haha!
34:08Haha, I did the best I could.
34:13Get outta here. Get outta here.
34:17Something tells me that this one shouldn't be that hard, but...
34:21Whatever dude, I'm regaining my Contra chops. It's been a long time since I've been playing Contra.
34:28Earned the anniversary flex from that.
34:31No, whatever, that's stupid.
34:33Alright.
34:35Shush, shush.
34:38And I just landed on that bullet. That was ridiculous.
34:42After a dash, I think that's what hurts the most.
34:45It's like, after you complete a dash and then land on a frickin' bullet.
34:51See, that's what Metal Slug has over Contra.
34:55The hand-to-hand combat with the knife.
34:58So you can just cut an enemy right then and there, dude.
35:04I remember it being in, like, you know...
35:06You know...
35:08Past installments, but...
35:14Alright, I'm still not over the fact that you can listen to your audio underwater.
35:17That's just so cool, dude.
35:18Coolest detail ever.
35:19Let's get the hell to the frickin' goal.
35:31Cause it's getting...
35:33Oh my god, come on.
35:37Goal.
35:39Goal.
35:40Goal.
35:41Goal.
35:42Damn it.
35:43Something sells me right after this bot here.
35:47Okay.
35:48Alright.
35:49Whatever.
35:50Shut up and go.
35:52Shut up or shit.
35:56Goal.
35:58Goal.
36:00Goal.
36:01Goal.
36:02Goal.
36:03Get out of here.
36:04Let's go.
36:05Get out of here.
36:06That is so...
36:07Larky.
36:09Alright, let's try a different one.
36:10Alright, let's see.
36:11Up some reach goal.
36:12Receive damage.
36:14Okay.
36:15Alright.
36:16Whatever.
36:17All right, let's see, up some reach goal, receive damage.
36:25Okay, all right, whatever.
36:28I mean, I think it's the same level, it's probably the same thing, right?
36:38Well, except, I think it said, uh, you don't have to worry about the timer ending out with this one,
36:42so I think that's the only real difference.
36:48Yeah, buddy.
36:50Yeah, this is a fantastic remake, by the way.
36:53Like, holy shit, man.
36:55Very impressed.
36:57See, this is the guy who voices Chris, either Chris Redfield or Leon in Resident Evil.
37:04Because, holy shit, that's awesome.
37:10Can't shoot in the water, buddy.
37:13Okay.
37:14Go, go.
37:15Yeah.
37:16Dash, baby, dash.
37:17Look on!
37:19Oh, wait.
37:21All right, all right.
37:24Look out!
37:26Go, quick.
37:29Look out!
37:30There we go.
37:31Okay, here we go.
37:32Keep going, keep going.
37:34Don't have to worry about the time, so we're good.
37:39Look out!
37:40Go, go, go.
37:41Oh, go, go.
37:42Go, go, go!
37:43Oh, go, go.
37:44Good lord, come on, man.
37:48See, like I said before, man, it's what Metal Slug has over Contra is the close combat,
37:52so even if the soldiers come near you, you can knife slash them, so you're not totally defenseless.
37:59There we go.
38:00Oh, crap.
38:01Oh, crap.
38:02Oh, crap!
38:03I gotta at least beat one of these soldiers.
38:04That's crazy.
38:05Oh crap, crap, I can't at least beat one of these challenges, it's crazy.
38:23Underwater, how do you know kick-side stick?
38:33I'm surprised that one guy didn't just like jump up and just like kill me there.
38:47There we go, baby.
38:52Aha, yes, yes.
38:57Aha, you can't get me in the water, you can.
39:13Oh, come on!
39:16Some booty right there.
39:18Now let's switch to the classic, um, classic freaking, uh, contra music.
39:28All right, I'm gonna switch the music.
39:41Retro Mox, okay, there we go.
39:43So what's the other one?
39:44Repent Research.
39:46Master the Assigned Weapon, okay.
39:50Okay, so I'll try this last challenge here.
39:58Ah man, this game is so much fun.
40:02I love it!
40:07Contra...
40:09That little detail about, like, hiding underwater and the audio is submerged too is amazing.
40:15Like, it's just so cool.
40:18Spread the choir.
40:20Hey, a Pro Boatel!
40:22Aha!
40:24Oh hell yeah, dude, spreader.
40:26It's like, you're good on this one.
40:30I'm gonna give a shout out to my best bud, uh, Blue Ranger Power, because he's the one
40:42who actually hooked me up with a copy of the original, uh, Contra.
40:46So thanks again, Barak.
40:51Yeah, this is, like, Contra series is like one of his favorite, uh, all-time games.
40:59Games.
41:00Games of all time.
41:01You might see if I say this, not...
41:06Look, I am out!
41:08No, come on.
41:10Come on, we gotta try one more.
41:13Okay, we'll...
41:15Wasn't even paying attention there, but okay.
41:17Alright, one more time, guys.
41:18One more time.
41:19One more time.
41:21Pro Boatel, can celebrate.
41:24Celebrate being so free.
41:27One more time.
41:30Explosion animations are amazing.
41:34Wee!
41:35Aha!
41:36Oh, come on!
41:37Alright, alright.
41:38Different approach.
41:40Oh, come!
41:41Ugh!
41:42That still drives me nuts.
41:43I'm like, if this was Battle Slug, I could've just slash you with my knife.
41:47If you come close.
41:48That is what Battle Slug has over Contra.
41:49But if it wasn't for Contra, I don't think we'd get a great game on those.
41:54Inspiracion.
41:55Inspiracion.
41:56Great game.
41:57Great game.
41:58Oh, no, no.
41:59I mean, it's pretty good.
42:00That just drives me nuts.
42:01I'm like, if this was Battle Slug, I'm like, if this was Battle Slug, I'm gonna just slash
42:08you with my knife.
42:09If you come close.
42:10But, if it wasn't for Contra, I don't think we'd get a great game on those.
42:21Inspiracion!
42:40Oh, yeah.
42:47Oh, come on!
42:50That kills me.
42:52That kills me!
42:54Alright, come on.
42:56Come on, bruh.
42:58You can do this!
43:10Oh, crap!
43:12He ain't getting from me for going.
43:17There we go.
43:18Yeah.
43:19Dear buddy, come on.
43:21Oh, God!
43:22Get away from me!
43:23Get away from me!
43:25Alright, not today!
43:27Not today, Satan!
43:30Oh, God!
43:31Get away from me!
43:32Get away from me!
43:34Alright, not today!
43:36Not today, Satan!
43:38Oh, Lord!
43:41Lord Almighty!
43:42Lord Almighty!
43:43Get out of here, dude.
43:46I'm bored of shit.
43:48Finally completed the challenge!
43:50Yes!
43:51Good ol' spreader.
43:53I'm glad that-
43:54Glad this one didn't have a timer.
43:55Oh, my God.
43:57Geez, Louises.
43:59Woo!
44:01That was crazy, son!
44:03Crazy!
