Contra came first....then Super C (Super Contra) came after.

 

up up down down left right left right a b start (is that right?)

 

And I think you might be thinking of BAD DUDES! Game kicked ass

[Guest J*ingus]

Yeah, that's right.

 

Ninjas on a train? Actually, it could be any number of various action games, but it's probably either Bad Dudes or Ninja Gaiden 2.

 

Pirates! was a weird, wonderful open-ended game where you played a pirate in the 17th century Carribbean. It was sort of an RPG, but it was completely nonlinnear, you could go anywhere and do pretty much anything you wanted.
