Reviews
Game
Contra started out as a side-scrolling arcade shooter, but really shined when it was ported to the NES. Aside from the standard side-scrolling shoot em' up fun, Contra also introduced some pseudo-3D stages and vertical scrolling stages to change things up a bit. There are also several cool bosses, awesome weapons, and plenty of exciting stages to blast your way through. This game is still exciting to play even to this day.
Music
Contra's music is actually pretty impressive for a game from early 1988. The stage music is fitting to the locations from the desolate snowfield to the mysterious alien's lair and the fanfares are short, but creative. It's an above average soundtrack over all.
Ripping
Ripping NES music is a very arduous process that is beyond the scope of this site.
