Log entries
- 2014-07-09: Found an FCEUX save state on my old Dell Inspiron 510m laptop.
- Played through the whole game on FCEUX with Erik (using the Konami Code), but I died on the last level... DAMMIT.
- Completed the game (30 Lives Cheat). Completed with Erik using 30 lives code.
- Completed the game (Mednafen - 30 Lives Cheat). Completed the game using 30 lives code, just warming up for YouTube stream...
- Completed the game (Mednafen - 30 Lives Cheat). Completed it again using 30 lives code, streaming to YouTube. I switched to using a 360 controller, which I regretted. The controller has a problem where pressing down on the D-pad often results in a diagonal, which in Contra results in your character not ducking. Many pointless deaths because of this.
- Completed the game (Mednafen - 30 Lives Cheat). My second Cotnra YouTube stream went better. I was using the keyboard instead of the Xbox 360 controller. I'm still far from being able to beat it without cheating...
- Playing on my real NES and using no cheat codes for once, I reached stage 6/8.
- I got 4 RetroAchievements in Contra. It's fun that you have new reasons to go back to these old games.
