Encapsulated and graded 7.0 with a “First-Party H-Seam” seal rating of A by WATA Games. Offered here is a sealed and graded copy of "Contra" developed by Konami for the Nintendo Entertainment System. The port for the famous arcade game was released by Nintendo for the North American market in February of 1988 and was one of the first action games to feature two-player simultaneous play. The game featured Bill and Lance, two members of Earth's elite Marine Contra Corps fighting against an alien invasion in the distant future, and was famous for its tight controls, rich graphics, and profound difficulty. "Contra" is one of the early NES games to feature the "Konami Code," which granted the player 30 extra lives and is almost essential to beat the game. This presented game features a round Nintendo "Seal of Quality" and a "REV-A" label that indicates that this game was produced between January 1988 and March 1989. The game that made the "Konami Code" famous comes with an attractive seal rating of A and an overall box grade of 7.0.
