That don't look like Takeshi's Challenge

Weirdly, that is the only one of the three I have beaten. Zero chance I could do it now of course.

I hate hard games nowadays, but when I was a kid I had a high tolerance for them because that's pretty much all there was. I have a fondness for the Ghosts 'n Goblins series because it was part of my childhood, but I wouldn't give it the time of day if they came out now.

That turtles game wasnt even that fun there were better turtles games to play on the nes and snes

Battletoads on the other hand was quite fun but then that jump on the speeder level always made it near impossible. So you were always discouraged that you would get stuck on that level. Or like one time I made the jump but then had to go and my parents turned it off...like battletoads was not that difficult if you made that jump but man was it hard to.

What about that Action52 Tigerman game that was made to be impossible

This goes to Geometry Dash without a doubt in my mind if you include user-created levels, and I do as long as they're officially rated with stars, especially if they're e.g. in a Gauntlet (which a number of Easy and Medium Demons are).

If you allow in star-rated levels outside of Gauntlets, then I think it's safe to say that Tidal Wave on its own crushes the difficulty of basically any video game ever made that's ever been completed by a human. GD is an interesting case where you can make it as easy or as difficult as you want because there's no true "ending" to the game (getting to the Demon Gauntlet is part of an actual storyline, but when you beat it, it goes nowhere, so that's weird).

Huh you seem tohave used a tmnt cover instead of greg tech new horizons

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 months ago

I didn't mind TMNT.

What still gives me PTSD is Shadow Of The Beast 2. I was utterly clueless on how to beat that game as a child, and as an adult I can literally watch someone beat it, know what to do, and still fuck it up.

Cuphead is easy. Ever tried Hotline Miami?
