Inspired by the topic "Easiest Nintendo game played".

I would say the hardest Nintendo game I have ever played, F-Zero GX on the gamecube. I just can't finish the last story mission in freaking normal mode, let alone the expert difficulties in grand prix.

Yeah, I have to agree with you on that one (F-Zero GX). The difficulty on that game is insane at times.

I would definitely have to say the first world of Kid Icarus for NES. I didn't know platformers could be so hard, especially such an old title.

Ok, so I don't know why, but I can't seem to beat Excite Truck 100%.

I haven't played it in a while, but I think it was because I could never get enough stars AND get first place at the same time.

The hardest, I would have to say Where's Mario or Mario in Time.

I was young when I played those, didn't really understand it.

Since I just made the "Easiest Nintendo game played" topic, I was thinking about making the Hardest Nintendo game played" topic, but you made it before me.

I would definitely agree that F-Zero GX is the hardest Nintendo game I've ever played. I've only beaten one grand prix on master mode and I can only come in 2nd place in the other cups. I can also only beat one mission on hard mode. It's insanely difficult.

For me, all the 2D Mario games are hard, some levels get me mad because I can't finish them, and they are usually pretty boring, maybe because I always tried to grab ALL the coins. Some people say they can get though SMB first try, and I have yet to get through it once...Oh well, I don't really like 2D Mario games... Other than that MP3 on hypermode is insane in some parts.

Touching the screen to shoot was baddd because you had to alternate between tapping the screen and moving which is clumsy (at least for me). The layout they have now works better than a PC shooter IMO and I found it to be really easy.

World 8 of Super Mario bros 3. and also the first couple minutes of Metroid (NES). In metroid you start out with very little health, and World 8 of mario is just plain unfair.

Hardest Nintendo developed title would fall somewhere around Zelda 2. To appear on a Nintendo system is a toss up between the Ninja Gaiden trilogy, Battletoads (jokes aside), and F-Zero GX (which was a Sega developed title).

Omg yes. Trying to beat that game without getting anyone killed is darn near impossible. Plus F-Zero GX on G-cube and Resident Evil without a strategy guide on hard lol = yeah right.

This is only one of the Hardest you will ever face in life. You want to talk about the hardest video games? Take a good look at the NES selection.

Yeah Battletoads was very difficult and I also find rhythm games like guitar hero and elite beat agents really hard so I avoid them.

OoT for the first time was pretty hard bc i was young back then and the water temple speaks for itself. SSBB isnt that hard but getting every single unlockable can be quit fustrating at times and even though i dont have GH3 i have seen people playing it on expert and it looks impossible

I don't know why anyone has not said Donkey Kong for ARC.

Only two people have ever made it to the final level (kill screen), Billy Mitchell and Steve Wiebe (watch King of Kong).

I think F-Zero GX was only really hard in Story Mode. I completed it, but I could only finish a couple of the missions on hard or very hard mode. The Grand Prix mode wasn't that hard I think. The track is more of an opponent than the 29 other racers most of the time, so if you could get around that completing all GPs in master difficulty certainly wasn't impossible.

As for the hardest game, I'm not sure. Of course NES games are usually hard as hell, but I remember finding it extremely difficult to get everything in Lylat Wars as it didn't have mission select, which is why I never did get every medal.
