What are the hardest NES games?
I found a copy of Silver Surfer for NES at a junk store the other day, and have been having a hard time trying not to punch the TV screen every time I play it. Seriously, what the hell is this? The Surfer dies so damn easily. This is pretty damn hard and annoying, but is nothing when compared to Battletoads. Awesome game, yet so f***ing hard.
So yeah, what are the hardest NES games you have played? |

Hardest one I've played would definately go to Abadox. Like the Surfer one you mention, the hero in Abadox dies easily (-one hit- and he's a goner). Had to use an 'invincibility' cheat code to be able to see the whole game through. |

You can't beat Friday the 13th without some kind of code. I know this for a fact.
Oh, and Yo-Noid! Anyone remember that game? RIDICULOUS. |

Had read about Yo Noid, but never played it. Though, that did remind me of another strange game (that I had rented at one time).
Cool Spot (yeah, it's SNES, but while thinking of it wanted to make note). Another crazy advertising videogame. While on this again, and to get on topic, will note a couple others I had gotten for NES that were weird. Deadly Towers 3-D World Runner |

Ghosts n Goblins (getting the "good" ending) and Adventure Island are the hardest NES games I own. Anyone actually ever beat the original Adventure Island? Furthest I ever got was like 5-1 and that was when I was a kid.

I remember renting Yo Noid! So many times and I got almost to the end and kept getting a game over at the pizza game because it was so hard and I was so young back also.
Ninja gaiden 1 and 3 battletoads castlevania 2 these are the 3 i can think of why i said ninja gaiden 1 and 3.. well the game is so easy for ninja gaiden 1 until you get to the final levels.. they are a pain.. 3 is hard like 1 and you don't get unlimited contuines about castlevania 2, there is no way you can beat this without a guide. it's that hard. battletoads.. i'm not saying much but let met give you a level level 3- bike level that is one hard level. trust me. |

The bomb-diffusing?! I found that one rather easy. It's the next level (with the Turtle Wagon) that was a pain for me (could never get past that). |

I actually did beat Castlevania 2 without a guide lol. Most of the stuff where you have to have a certain part equipped I discovered by accident.

Hardest NES game I ever played was TMNT. I rarely passed that water level. And even if I could, there's this one sewer with a tricky jump that I could never get passed in the 3rd world.
Megaman (can't remember which game). Also, Battletoads: Level 3, I could NEVER get passed, no matter how much I rented that game. Street Fighter, I could never beat the first enemy. Glad they never made a Street Fighter II...oh wait... At least Street Fighter II was good, even if they do have 20 SF II's... Last Action Hero, I never got passed the first level. Super Mario Bros. I can get pasted 8-1, and sometimes 8-2, VERY RARELY 8-3, but that last Hammer Brother in 8-4, just before Bowser...never got passed him without a powerup, which I always got hit, then Bowser finishes off Little Mario... And these games aren't in order...

Little Nemo: The Dream Master.
Now, this might just be because I was really young when I played it, but I absolutely loathed that game. I was just got destroyed so quickly. If I went back to it now it probably wouldn't be as hard. I also had a lot of trouble with Ghosts N' Goblins. I don't think I ever made it passed the second level, to be honest. |

I will get behind you on that 100%. No other game has made it into my daily vocabulary.
In case anyone is wondering, the word Solstice now replaces sh*t. When I say something is sh*t, I literally say "That's solstice!". |

I've been known to say that quite a few times, myself. It is quite the word replacement.
