TheBiRD | 137 Posted October 27, 2019 Share Posted October 27, 2019 Still working on it, here and there, for more then 2 years now. I suck!! Film myself trying but wasn’t able to close the deal yet.. Can you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bearcat-Doug | 5,104 Posted October 27, 2019 Share Posted October 27, 2019 I actually tried this a few years back just for fun. I've played both games so many times (literally since they came out) that I can usually beat them on 1 life without much trouble. Keep trying and I'm sure you'll be able do it!

fox | 1,665 Posted October 27, 2019 Share Posted October 27, 2019 At one point I could no death Contra years ago. Not sure if I would be able to now, those sitting purple goobers in the last stage always seemed to peg me. Super C feels like a whole different animal. Harder game and I feel a lot less familiar with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheBiRD | 137 Posted October 27, 2019 Author Share Posted October 27, 2019 I can beat Contra no life pretty regulary. Super C I did it 2-3 times. The challenge is to beat both games in a row. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DoctorEncore | 3,690 Posted October 27, 2019 Share Posted October 27, 2019 This is a cool idea for a challenge. If you stream, you should get your attempts online. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mbd39 | 2,017 Posted October 27, 2019 Share Posted October 27, 2019 Good luck. I have no deathed Contra. Stage 5 is the furthest I've reached in Super C, and I usually can't get past stage 4. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

arnpoly | 198 Posted October 30, 2019 Share Posted October 30, 2019 I have no-deathed both games exactly once. Not together though! I could definitely do it though it would take a while... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I could definitely do it though it would take a while... I figured you would be able to beat them both back to back on 1 life with your eyes closed! I actually used to play both games back to back regularly, but it's been a while since I've played either one so I'd probably have to knock the rust off.

Andy_Bogomil | 815 Posted November 1, 2019 Share Posted November 1, 2019 I would start with Super C if that's the one you die on more regularly. I know I've done this and I believe may have even done it two players with my brother. I actually find Contra the harder of the two games. Contra 3 no death on hard difficulty is tough too.

Lago | 217 Posted November 15, 2019 Share Posted November 15, 2019 I've never actually beaten Super C. I used to run through Contra all the time. I had so much fun with that game back in the day. So, to your question my answer is no. Now I really want to play Contra and Super C, tho! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bearcat-Doug | 5,104 Posted November 15, 2019 Share Posted November 15, 2019 I tried to play some Super C today and I was pretty rusty since I haven't played it in months. I'm sure it will come back to me. I have a slightly tougher time with Contra for whatever reason and I haven't played it since the last time I maxed out the score. 7 loops in a row was enough Contra for a while! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MachineCode | 159 Posted November 16, 2019 Share Posted November 16, 2019 I've not done it but have No Hit both plenty of times. I actually never thought to do them back to back. I looped Super C until I maxed out the score once. Contra I'm a little more hit or miss so I'd have to practice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MachineCode | 159 Posted November 16, 2019 Share Posted November 16, 2019 I’m liking these weapons challenges. I propose the following challenges: Rules: - Games must be played in succession. - No Deaths. - Non weapon power ups, including “R”, are allowed except in the no power ups challenge. - Specified weapon must be obtained at the first possible opportunity. No weapons aside from stock gun are allowed up to the aforementioned point. - No Cheats or Tool Assists. - No Save States. Challenges: - No Spread Fire. (Everything else is fair game) - Machine Gun Only. - Flamethrower Only. - Lasers Only. - Stock Gun Only. - No Power Ups. I’ve listed them in order of what I feel is easiest to hardest. If you can pull off the last one, you are the Supreme Master of Nintendo. Captain N has to give you his jacket and Johnny Arcade has to let you kick him in the nads.

These are just extras. I’m definitely trying the standard no death runs first. I feel like a actually have a really good shot at that one so these are just the next step for fun. No death dual game run by itself is super badass and worthy of praise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The splash damage can really help out in high spawn areas and the weapon can be charged to take a good amount of damage. Fire in Contra is absolute garbage.

MachineCode | 159 Posted November 17, 2019 Share Posted November 17, 2019 How would one go about filming this with regards to legitimacy. If I just straight up video capture it then there’s no guarantee I did it back to back. Would I have to also film myself playing it and swapping cartridges?

DoctorEncore | 3,690 Posted November 17, 2019 Share Posted November 17, 2019 Can we call deathless runs "no dead" from now on? Because that definitely sounds way cooler. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MachineCode | 159 Posted November 17, 2019 Share Posted November 17, 2019 But there are lots of dead. Just not you 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
