If I lose the spread gun, I start over. (lemmy.world)

I love this, this has to be the best version of this meme I've ever seen.

I personally won't start over if I lose spread, but lose all my powerups in something like Gradius or Lifeforce and it probably isn't worth it to keep going. It is the Konami way.

That's actually part of why I didn't enjoy Gradius and Life Force. At that point it's not a fun challenge, it's just bullshit. In Contra you can do pretty good with the starting weapon, even if it's not ideal.
