About those being hits, I guess... I never played those, nor did I not know if they were hits or not.

The only Contra game that I really like is Contra Hard Corps. Contra III is cool, but it has broken-ass gameplay and it's too fucking hard. The top down levels suck my dick, and the lack of a slide feature like the one in Hard Corps makes the game feel extremely limited by comparison. Also it sucks ass in two player because if anyone walks two steps to the right they rape their friend by getting them stuck to the left side of the screen. I guess that's a problem in all contra games, but it's especially annoying in Contra III.

I'm all about Brownie, his electromagnetic yoyo is so great for boss fights.

Yeah, he's pretty badass too. He's got the flamethrower from Contra III, so he's my other choice.

I've never really been in to Contra that much, but I played Neo Contra at my uncle's house once and I thought it was pretty fun.

By all accounts, isn't Hard Corps considered Contra 4?
I remember the first time I saw Hard Corps. It was 1998 and my friends and I had discovered emulation about a year or so prior. My friend had DLed the Genecyst emulator and was showing us random games. I think the exact moment when the game won me over was when he fought the giant dancing robot.

Yeah I swear that thing is straight out of Mystery Science Theatre 3000 or something.
I like the majority of the boss fights in Hard Corps, but I really like a couple from Contra III more than any of them.
1. The part where you're jumping from missile to missile trying to kill the airship
2. The wall climber robot with the drill
3. The gargoyle on the wall climbing up to the alien hive
These are all completely badass and nothing in Hard Corps touches them. I like Hard Corps' gameplay mechanics better though.
