Thirty years of alien-shredding, one definitive box. The Limited Run #446: Contra Anniversary Collection Hard Corps Edition for PlayStation 4 compiles Konami's legendary run-and-gun franchise into a single physical package wrapped in a deluxe clamshell case featuring original artwork by Tom Dubois. If you've ever memorized the Konami Code, this set was made for your shelf.

The PS4 disc comes with reversible cover art, the Anniversary Collection soundtrack on CD, and a reversible 18" x 24" poster, all housed inside that premium clamshell. Tom Dubois' artwork gives the entire package an illustrated, painterly quality that stands apart from the typical game case aesthetic. It looks like something you'd frame, not file.

Contra is one of those franchises where the difficulty is the identity. These are the games that taught us cooperation through shared suffering, that turned "one more try" into a lifestyle, and that made the spread gun feel like finding a religious artifact. Having the collection on PS4 disc ensures these titles remain playable and preserved outside of digital storefronts that can vanish without warning.

The reversible cover art and poster give you display options, letting you choose between modern branding and classic artwork depending on your shelf's personality. The clamshell case elevates this above standard collector's editions, providing genuine protection and visual distinction that a cardboard box simply can't match. For PS4 collectors who grew up feeding quarters into Contra arcade cabinets or burning through continues on the NES, this Hard Corps Edition consolidates decades of muscle memory into one clean, displayable set.
