Gotta love Contra! Can barely remember anything from high school, college, or what I had for lunch yesterday, but the second you mention Contra....up, up, down, down, left, right, left, right, select, start .....immediately comes to mind...and that was 30+ years ago! Lol

Right, Left, Down, Up, A, B, Start - Super C

Most any other Konami game...

Up, Up, Down, Down, Left, Right, Left, Right, B, A, B, A, Start

For those wondering, Life Force alone is worth it for the $4 Arcade Classics Anniversary Collection.
