Art vs. Real Pixels #2 - Contra NES

[@yihan8657]

That music captured my nostalgia perfectly! Great job syncing the animations and art to it...I just put this video on loop to relive the memories of playing Contra with my family.

Wow! Thanks for sharing that! The amazing Contra remix soundtrack was created by Jesse Jace Thomas and is called "Long Live the Red Falcon". It's on his Space Pirates 1 album along with several other equally cool remixes here jessejacethomas.bandcamp.com/album/space-pirate-collection-i

A blast from the past!

Thanks for the comment! Scanning in the instruction manual art, capturing gameplay and finding the right accompanying remix music all really fires up my nostalgia. Love to hear when it helps others feel some nostalgic warm fuzzies as well!

[@MarMaxGaming]

This is a cool concept!

[@sharesquid]

Thanks! Wish I could do "outdoor running with video games" like you did in your Contra video here....kzbin.info/www/bejne/iYTChmeuZ72UZ80, but yeah, I'm no runner, haha. Thanks for watching (and subscribing?)

Dude, thanks for watching!

[@thatretroguy1987]

No problem

[@Divancic418]

F is fireball? Lol never read the manual as a kid we called it the fizzle gun. I think we got ours used cart only as a kid from a game exchange. Our dad did that a lot, trade in for new ones.

[@sharesquid]

Haha...I think Fizzle gun should have been the right name, kinda makes a fizzle sound. Thanks for sharing the memory of your dad...I replied heavily on our small playground NES game exchange when I was a kid.

Dude this is great I subbed!! Let me know if u want me to run any games and make video for you. I can run pretty much any native res.

[@sharesquid]

Thanks for the sub! I subbed back! Your videos really bring out the best in those CRT pixels...will keep your offer in mind for possible future filming!

[@PixelGod240]

[@sharesquid]

Thanks for watching! Although this is the 2nd time I've gotten this comment... anyone care to explain "promo'sm" means in this context?
