You missed "select" - it's "Up, up, down, down, left, right, left, right, B, A, B, A, Select, Start"

I've spent most of my adult life trying to _forget_ the "Contra" cheat code!

Steven, those are two different codes. The former gives you 33 lives per continue, the latter infinite.
This shirt always gets laughs.

There seems to be some controversy as to the exact cheat code. Including Steven's (which sounds more correct than the one I have listed), there are about 4 different variations I've found with various Google searches. I can't remember which is the true cheat, and can't really check because I don't have an NES handy and don't want to d/l an NES emulator.

Notice the guy is selling two more of these "unique" buckles... all going for $17-18.

I recently noticed a cargo truck from NJ driving through Minneapolis (any van with grafitti sticks out like a sore thumb here, whereas in NY or NJ they are commonplace), and it had a large sticker of that code phrase on it (up down up down left right, etc...) Must be something from "the streets".

The version I grew up with was Up Up, Down Down, Left Right, Left Right, B A, B A, Start

In Texas, they use Xbox controllers for belt buckles.

For Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 2 : the Arcade Game (by Konami)
the code was B A B A U D B A L R B A Start

It's not just the Contra code, it's the Konami code and works in many of the early Konami games for the Famicom/NES including Gradius and Contra. In Contra, B, A, Start is for the single player game and B, A, Select, Start is for multiplayer. According to Kazuhisa Hashimoto (one of Konami's NES guys) he made the code because he needed something easy to remember for debugging.

Nice one Jesse ;)

That's the code to get your pants off 40 times. If you hit "select" before "start", that's the code to get *two* people's pants off. 40 times.

There's an Ataris song called "Up, Up, Down, Down, Left, Right, Left, Right, B, A, Start" on their 2001 album End Is Forever. Pretty lame pop-punk song but a great 80's reference nonetheless.

U U D D L R L R B A (select) START
that's the code. :)
did anyone ever beat Rush N' Attack?
42 01 200311:42AM
Nope, no one ever did. And did anyone else always hear that title as "Russian Attack"?

"Rush N' Attack" was one of my favorite arcade games. I did think it was a play on "Russian Attack," since the Cold War was still raging, the enemy soldiers and their gear looked vaguely Soviet, and you'd see red stars on some of the buildings. If I remember correctly, the international version of "Rush N' Attack" was called "Green Beret."
I can rescue the POWs on the coin-op version twice, but I didn't really play the Nintendo version much.

tangent: the Japanese version of "Bionic Commando" was called "Top Secret - Hitler's Revival" and had swastikas everywhere.

up up down down left right left right ba start gave you 30 guys in contra and life force, it also refilled your life (only once) in the game boy teenage mutant ninja turtles, also it worked in super r-type if you wanted to blow up your ship...if you used the l and r buttons it maxed your weapons i think.

I just can't believe someone paid 17 bucks for it.
Someone that isn't me, I mean.
