    Idk, I have a vivid memory of playing the game, I remember all the weapons and stages, but I don’t remember having ever input the Konami code, although I do know of it nowadays obviously.

    Perhaps my older brother knew it? I don’t know. 30 lives seems like it would just never end, basically.

    My main point was rather that the article said it was harder as a co-op? I think it was easier, maybe.

    I don’t know man, it’s been more than a quarter of a century. All I remember is having had fun. I think that’s the main point.

    Thanks

      Right? I agree. My little 7 year old brain was so interested in the story going on with each level. It slowly progresses from find a secret military base behind a waterfall, to by the way aliens are everywhere and controlling everything. Actually, you have to go in one and shoot it from the inside.

      Great game.
