Games whose titles consist of a single word.
Crunchy frozen water fallen from the sky. Many games feature a snow world, a snow level, or otherwise-connected regions of wintery landscapes.
An acrobatic feat in which the feet roll over the head and return.
A two-dimensional image or animation overlaid into a scene. The foundation of early 2D games, making up everything from props to the player-controlled character.
The first weapon that is acquired in a game. It's usually a handgun or melee weapon, is unbreakabe and carries unlimited ammunition. It's also the perfect "emergency weapon".
A boss that doesn't move around during battle. It will instead use other means to "reach" the player.
Moving to the left or right without rotating the body axis. The technique, also called side-stepping, is useful in FPS games to avoid incoming fire without turning away from a target.
The main antagonist in almost all Contra games. He alongside the many other aliens are based on H.R. Giger's Necronom IV
The player character is seen at a distance from a number of different possible perspective angles. There is generally a movable camera but it can also be in a fixed position. It most commonly refers to a viewpoint behind the player character.
The Virtual Console is a platform service that first appeared on Nintendo's Wii and later on the 3DS and Wii U. Games from past consoles are emulated to run on the new hardware with the added benefits of system-level save states and other features.
"Vore" is an internet term for a sexual fetish for the act of a creature swallowing someone else whole while they are still alive. The act is also seen in many video games, in a decidedly less sexual manner.
This is a place of special vulnerability. Particularly used in boss fights or when simply fighting Giant Enemy Crabs that cannot be defeated by usual means.
Xbox 360 and original Xbox games that have been approved to run on the Xbox One's backwards compatibility feature.
