Limited Run Games

Thirty-plus years of running, gunning, and trying not to lose your last life. Limited Run #446: Contra Anniversary Collection Ultimate Edition for PlayStation 4 packages Konami's legendary run-and-gun franchise in a collector's box that goes absurdly deep. The classic Konami silver box with art by Tom Dubois sets the tone immediately, wrapping the entire package in that unmistakable 80s action energy.

Inside, a deluxe clamshell case houses the PS4 disc with reversible cover art alongside a SteelBook, giving you multiple display options. The soundtrack CD, reversible 18x24 poster, and retro-style dust sleeve handle the essentials. Then it gets serious.

Acrylic standees, enamel pins, and framed lenticular art push this into premium territory. A mini replica flying capsule pulls directly from the games, and The History of Contra hardcover book gives the franchise the documentary treatment it's earned. Bill and Lance metal keychains round out a package that feels like a museum exhibit for one of gaming's most iconic co-op experiences.

Contra defined the run-and-gun genre and gave us the Konami Code's most famous application. For PS4 collectors who grew up memorizing up-up-down-down, this Ultimate Edition isn't just a collection of games. It's a monument to every quarter spent, every friendship tested, and every spread gun picked up at exactly the right moment.

The Tom Dubois artwork alone makes this a display piece that commands attention.
