The debate continues about whether this game is good-hard or bad-hard.
Clever names, right?

I got FURTHER in Contra: Shattered Soldier, near the very end… but I can barely get to the SECOND LEVEL in this game?! This has to be the hardest contra game… and yes, I beat Hard Corps on Sega Genesis.
i wanna be the guy isnt hard,its a rage game,its made to be unfair on purpose,remembering the entire game to be able to win is not fun imo,and does not deserve the word "hard". its completely artificial
no matter how far this series goes,its a gold mine for animations
hey arin theres an arcarde in spring texas called the game preserve that i love to go to thats like that kinda, they even have a comic shop.
I can't get over the fact that Arin's opinion about liking this game is the same reason he doesn't like classic Sonic.
Theres a barcade near where I live, kinda sounds like what Arin was talking about toward the end there
Nobody can prove that Dan isn't related to Satan
Check out Pinballz Palace in Austin Texas. You'll love it! If you're looking for a cool arcade!
My friend and I played this game, we managed to beat it in about an hour, but the thing you got to understand is that he played it a lot when he was a kid and memorized it pretty good. Even with all that and the cheat codes we had to do a restart and he had to carry the final level while I just watched. It's a really hard game, and no one should be ambushed with this without knowing it's really hard.
This game desperately needs infinite continues.
I woul love a real life grumpcade 😮
I love how they just stand around like complete idiots after they spawn, resulting in an instant follow-up death.
Game Grumps 2p Cave story series confirmed? :^)
i wanna be the boshy > i wanna be the guy
This is, what, the third time the Grumps stopped playing a game and switched to podcast mode?
Apparently Arin's life isn't canon with itself… He played this with Jon, knew how to diagonal shoot at the wall boss, got past giant skeletor and did just fine… Why does he suck at games so much now?
Even the demo characters are constantly dying.
Hey we made our game too short let's make it super impossible to give the illusion that it's longer. That's the antithesis of good game design.
The problem with these Nintendo hard games is not that they were designed to be challenging (int he way that games like Hollow Knight, Cuphead or many modern Rogue-likes are) but that their programming is shit. Shoddy collision & hit boxes, unresponsive controls, required pixel precision in combination with muddy pixel graphics, enemies spawning outta nowhere, enemy waves that last way too long, bosses not giving you clear tells, non-existent respawn points and last but not least an old-school game desing convention that needs to be abandoned for all eternity: Limited continues.
I hope you get to own an arcade one day Arin 🙏🏽
OMG PLEASE PLAY
CONTRA SHATTERED SOLDIER
PLEASEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!
I have it and it's the only one I've played, it has demented me
I haven't watched them in almost a year. I came back for this series.
Fuck you Dan.
yeah you hear a LOT about Contra 3
dude the first contra was hard as balls
This game is possible to beat in 15 minutes, your hitbox is your shoulders and it's beatable without bombs, I hope this encourages you to push forward, also it's easier 1 player
i'm triggered that they didn't put the podcast background back up
Wow you guys suck…
Was the game with all the spikes vvvvv?

I like complainging.
watched this episode with a speedrun of contra three playing in the background… game was already halfway beaten when we switched to podcast grumps. Love you Arin and Danny
"Just git gud" – Arin 2017
"Everybody having a good time in here?"
"I've never even seen this shit!" lies… lies can be proven with footage recorded with Jontron in the room.
Dude, I would LOVE it if Arin made a barcade! I would be all over that!
I wanna show Danny the 13 minute speed run of this game just so I can see the look of defeat on his face
We actually have an Arcade Place like what Arin describes in Hungary. It's called Barcraft!
Dan has been such a whiney bitch through each episode
complainging
Super C was so easy!
Man, around 5 minutes in I realized WHERE IS THE DOG ISLAND 12??????
You guys should try I wanna be the boshy!!
It actually just dawned on me… Dan is older than my Mom! And I'm 21!
Did Dan seriously say Super C is too hard?
Arin!
Every girl that has ever told you, "Oh my God, you're JUST like my BROTHER!"
…… I AM THAT GUY!
I would "on one condition" that harder than my pecker!
"If Arin perfects it, and can beat it in as many 10-15 minute episodes (3 or 4), DAN has to practice, and beat it two player with him (no episode limit, failure is an option)."
