Contra 4 played upside down by a Japanese virtuoso (nicovideo original here). Awesome to see that people are still playing Contra 4, way more than I ever did, and making my own struggle with its difficulty look laughably trivial.

As it turns out, a lot of people played Contra 4! In the latest Retronauts podcast, Konami’s Tomm Hulett and Simon Lai revealed that, in general, the game sold well. Good. So often, awesome games fail to do anything in the market, especially on the DS. Contra 4 remains one of the top games on the system, and I’m glad some unspecified, but sizeable, percentage of the population paid attention.
