My 8-year-old self is adamantly denying this, but my 38-year-old self prefers the Arcade Version of Konami’s Contra than the (much more heard) NES Version. Thanks to Mondo, both versions are as easily accessible as a simple flip of a record. Necessary, 8-bit listening material.

Contra!
Leave it to Mondo to release not one, but two colored vinyl versions of the NES classic, Contra. Side one features the NES version, while side two promotes the arcade version. Both sides at glorious 45rpm (for that maximum quality sound), this split red / blue colored vinyl version is the more easily accessible of the two releases (the other being a 2017 Comic Con exclusive). Up, up, down, down, left, right, left, right, B, A, start. Never forget.
