Description

Full description:Immerse yourself in Contra Force, the captivating action-shooting game released by Konami exclusively for the Nintendo Entertainment System in 1992. This game is a unique spinoff of the Contra series, featuring a fresh plot set in Neocity, where you're tasked with saving the city from a ruthless terrorist organization, D.N.M.E. Choose your character from former military professionals, each possessing unique abilities and weapons, and navigate through five diverse stages alternating between side-view and overhead perspectives. The control system is straightforward and reminiscent of previous Contra games, providing an engaging yet familiar experience. Contra Force is not just a game; it's a journey back in time, offering a nostalgia-filled adventure for retro gaming enthusiasts.

Game Controls

Navigate your character with the NES controller's cross-shaped joypad and two action buttons. Press left or right to run, up to aim upward, and down to crouch. Diagonal joystick movements aim your weapon accordingly. Use the A button to jump, and the B button to shoot your weapon. The Select button allows you to choose a weapon after collecting sufficient power-ups, while the Start button accesses Player Select and Command Select modes. Detailed instructions can be found in the attached game manual. Please note, gamepad buttons are emulated by keys on your PC keyboard depending on your online emulator settings.
