Because sometimes the most important cheat code isn’t for extra lives.
It’s for surviving morning.

↑ ↑ ↓ ↓ ← → ← → B A
sequence wrapped around the mug, this 11 oz or 15 oz ceramic mug is a tribute to the famous Konami Code and its unforgettable association with Contra.
Add the bold color-accent interior and handle, choose your preferred caffeine power level, and prepare for another round.
11 oz: Normal Mode.
15 oz: Boss Battle Mode.
Why You’ll Love It:
- Legendary Contra Code Design – Features the iconic ↑ ↑ ↓ ↓ ← → ← → B A sequence associated with classic Contra gameplay.
- Instant Retro-Gamer Recognition – Fellow old-school players will recognize it before you’ve finished your first sip.
- Color Accent Style – A contrasting interior and handle give the classic gaming design an extra pop of color.
- Choose 11 oz or 15 oz – Pick your preferred power level depending on how serious today’s mission looks.
