Skip Level Two in Contra Force (NES) - A Wild Glitch Appears!
527In Contra Force for the NES, there's a glitch you can abuse to skip from Level 1 to Level 3 and it's only slightly convoluted!
In Level 1, activate the TI powerup on your normal gun. This power is important because it allows you to have three projectiles on the screen at once, and that's kinda necessary for the glitch. Now keep this power for the remainder of the level (that is, don't die or get another weapon).
When you get to the stack of three boxes before the boss fight, don't destroy any of those boxes. Instead, jump and pause the game in midair. Set one of your allies to the Assist Cover option. Now hold A as your press Start to close the menu, and this will trigger the Midair Jump Glitch for you to get over those boxes.
Here's the Midair Jump Glitch in depth - https://youtube.com/shorts/DyWKXbnvHp8?feature=share
When you make it over the boxes, stop for a moment. You'll need your on-screen ally to be at the height of his jump when he despawns, so perform a full jump and move to the right to scroll him off the screen as he is at the top of his vertical peak.
Now defeat the Leprechaun boss without taking a hit, and don't scroll the screen too far to the left. You'll want to be near that middle platform when you defeat the boss.
The objective is this: When you clear the level, a fanfare will play and the screen will freeze. You want to have three bullets AS WELL AS the right side of the three boxes on screen when the screen freezes. So as the boss is squirming on the ground after his defeat, run to the left, jump, and shoot three bullets to the left just before the screen freezes.
If you did all of this correctly, the screen will shift in a strange manner, and the ensuring conversation/cutscene will be the one that happens before Level 3! Now you will skip Level 2 (a top-down view area with a bunch of boats) and go straight to Level 3.
