Try to 100% Mario world games the last 6-7 years including the special levels. Nintendo hard is still a thing.
I gave up trying to beat one of the special levels after 3-4 months of trying. |

In defense of Simon's Quest it was only hard because it was stupidly esoteric thanks to botched localization. You could steam-roll the actual gameplay, the problem was when the game needed you to do something specific but it wasn't communicating what you needed to do clearly.
Meanwhile glitchy ass Ninja Gaiden would cheap shot you off a cliff every chance it could get. |

The last stage with bullshit, so many instant death sections and requiring an absolute precise twitch finger control to maneuver around, after that then you have to deal with the second FaZe of Sigma which is also a pain in the ass |

It's important that we distinguish early in this thread between fair and unfair difficulty.
Then there's difficult, but only because the game is so janky that knowing how to avoid crashing the thing is the real challenge. Deadly Towers, for example. Lastly, there was difficult, but only because you couldn't save it, and trying to ride the edge of performance for 2+hrs is a different kind of difficulty. Jackal Pretty much all the old games were difficult in some way, generally far more difficult than things today. Again, not always for the same reason. The world needs a new F-Zero, though. |

The chocobo race in FFX to get Tidus' epic weapon on Xbox One/PS4 is fucking ridiculous.
It wasn't too hard back on PS2 but something got messed up in the translation to the latest gen consoles. I had probably 30 hours in it trying to beat it with no luck, plus a smashed Xbox controller. I finally got my brother to come do it for me. I thought Castlevania 1 and 3 were a lot harder than Simon's Quest, but were better games. |

Check out this mod that fixes a lot of bs. "Rom Hacks" are kosher here right? Battletoads was fun but that bike part was lame, especially with 2 players. Gaiden is just insane, and Castlevania 2 I have mixed feelings about. |

Maybe it's because I grew up with it but Castlevania II: Simon's Quest is one of the easiest in the whole series. Of all the older Castlevania games on the NES, it was definitely the easiest. It was no Ninja Gaiden, Metroid, Zelda 2 the Adventure of Link, Battle Toads, Contra, Contra 2, Dragon Lair NES, Karate Kid, Marble Madness, Snake Rattle and Roll, or any of the other "NES Hard" games.
Different strokes for different folks. Simon's Quest was definitely one of the more confusing. I can see why some one going in fresh without help would think it's a hard game. Why do I need to sit on a piece of garlic with a jewel equipped to traverse the map? |

TMNT. The underwater electric seaweed levels. Old NES games were notorious for not telling you what to do next. 1942 and 1943 would drive me mad, getting shot by some random shit. Same with Jackal, finally get your Jeep all ready for war and some cheap shot wipes you out, and no more POWs to save. |

I also came here to say TMNT. I just always got my ass smashed by that steamroller thing on the street. The arcade game on NES was just more enjoyable in every way, just beat shit up.
You know what NES game I beat every time and still enjoy enough to come back and play again? Double Dragon II. Always entertaining and yet I don't know why. Rescue Rangers for NES was hard as fuck for a game aimed towards 8 year olds. Spy Hunter also drove me insane, but God damn check out that box art
