Description
Jaw-Dropping Copy of a Defining 8-Bit Classic
Contra - Wata 9.6 A+ Sealed [Rev-A, Round SOQ], NES Konami 1988
USA. This super slick copy of Contra is one of the
finest examples available, with only one copy numerically graded
higher on Wata's February 2025 population report. A defining
run-and-gun platform shooter, Contra set the standard for
fast-paced, co-op action, featuring tight controls, intense enemy
waves, and unforgettable side-scrolling and vertical-scrolling
stages. Originally an arcade hit (Konami, 1987), the NES version
became the definitive way to play, solidifying its place as one of
the system's most beloved titles. Known for its legendary Konami
Code, which granted 30 extra lives, Contra remains an
essential part of the NES library. Seeing such a high-grade copy of
a game this iconic is a genuine thrill-one that captures the
excitement of third-gen gaming at its absolute peak.View the certification for Wata Certification ID 605855-001, including grader's notes if available.
