Contra is a series of fast-paced run-and-gun shooters from Konami. The Contra series began with the release of Contra (1987) for the arcade, but has since been on many other consoles and systems. Beyond the changes in graphics, sound and gameplay schemes that the saga has undergone in each title, there is always a common denominator: the unusual difficulty and the number of times that the suffering players witness the game over screen.

In this video you can see the evolution of the saga through its game over screens, an original approach to walk through the history of these video games

In this video you will find:

• Gameplay of each game so you can see the evolution of graphics, sound and game mechanics over the years
• Game over screens of each game in chronological order. Isn't it interesting to know which elements repeat and which elements change in each title?
• Information related to each game such as release date, developer company, game genre and system it was released on.

Bits & Beats creates videos about the history of video games. In this channel you'll find comparisons, retrospectives, technical analysis, but, mostly, game curations with the idea of having an important task of preserving video games, and make them relevant to society at large.

Curation isn't just about digging up neat games, but it's also about preservation, interpretation, and using one's knowledge to make it relevant to people. With my videos I want older gamers to look back and remember the influence of video games on their lives, and new gamers to understand the larger context of the series they're playing for the first time today.

I put significant time and creative effort into each one of my videos, including research, digging into archives, playing video games and recording hours of footage, selecting specific clips, writing reviews for each title, and making a very careful video editing in the way to transmit both educational and entertaining values to my audience. Every video takes a lot of hours to produce, because I strive to give my audience a consistent, high-quality content.

Fidelity and preservation of the video games is essential in Bits & Beats, so the recordings are made with the highest bitrate quality. It is done this way to preserve original game look and sound through modern footage, with no superfluous additions. I recommend you watch the video at 4K and 60 frames per second to get the best possible viewing experience.

I hope you enjoy my videos and find them useful!
