By Jared Petty

To celebrate this momentous rumble in the jungle, our friends Kat Bailey and Sam Claiborn came over from IGN to talk all about what makes classic Contra games so damn compelling and timeless. You can hear the whole thing right now on Runtime: The Limited Run Games Podcast at Apple Podcasts, Stitcher, or the nifty link below.

So now that you’ve listened to our Contra love-on and gotten appropriately hyped for some Spread Gun-enhanced alien-busting, check out all the rad Contra Anniversary Collection sets and extras available April 29 at Limited Run Games, including four bodacious versions each for both Switch and PS4.
