For $4 you get endless gameplay. Think of it as "getting all your quarters back" 😆👍

Are these games going to be just as difficult as the quarter-eating arcade games? I haven't played a ton of Contra but I want to say it was more difficult for me than some other stuff like Rampage

+1 to that 👍 Especially when you're playing two- player and both people know the maps well.

They're all tough as nails, but there are save states on each of the games in this collection. I have it on Switch and Steam. It's a steal at $4.

This collection contains overseas versions of each game in the collection. Some have many changes from the North American versions that are worth the $4 alone to experience.

Time to school my kid in old school difficult.
I expect rage when we fail to synchronize our movements, especially on the "go up" level(s)!

Good luck. Had a roommate who literally smashed my TV over this game bc he kept dieing first. I didn't renew the lease.

LOL, I remember playing with my brother and he couldn't keep up and kept dying while I erased him off the screen. He then stole all my lives though...
