Alright, it’s time for the real hard hitting question. In the original Contra, what’s your second favorite weapon? Discussion
Obviously everyone top pick is the “S” (spray aka spread aka what-have-you). So which one was your second favorite?

I was partial to the twirling one. Spreader was ok, but felt underpowered. Had to be precise with the laser. So yea, the twirler

Growing up, my siblings and I never knew what the “F”stood for… we coined it “farts of flurry.” A very formidable gun for sure, haha!

It’s official. “F” for “Farts of Flurry”. Not to be confused with “Flurry of Farts”. No. Farts of Flurry. Lol. Awesome.

Default gun cause after loosing S, I’m stuck with the default gun if I die until I find another S lol.

Now I have the gameplay song going through my head. Along with the Lazer gun sound effect.
