魂斗羅 Spirits（僅卡帶）

The mode-7 stages are a wild ride, especially the spinning ones where you're dodging everything at once. Cart arrived in good shape and works perfectly, no save battery issues to worry about. Konami really nailed the difficulty curve here, it's brutal but fair.

That Konami Mode 7 really shines here, making the frantic action feel fresh even after repeated runs. The difficulty is brutal but fair, and the cartridge itself arrived in great condition for a Super Famicom title.

Finally, a Contra that's genuinely tough without feeling unfair—the Mode 7 sections really mix up the run and gun pacing perfectly. I've been playing this cart for days and the frantic action still hasn't gotten old.
