But Mike Tyson's Punchout is a good one too.

Time Lord! Not a very popular game, but man it's hard.
Two other games on my NES-never-beat list until recently were Mike Tyson's Punch Out and Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (1).
Mike Tyson is hard, but if you can get past the first 1:30, he doesn't throw the knockout punches anymore (though he's still pretty hard). I beat him multiple times including a decision at the end of the third round (hardest way to beat him I think).
I admit I had to consult some cheat sites in order to beat TMNT, but only to find which ways to go in a couple of the levels (the one with the turtle van and the airport one). The technodrome is pretty much impossible even with all four turtles with full health. I got to Shredder at the end with one turtle left and barely any power but got lucky I guess.

with the game genie!!!
seriously, though. it took me a long time to get master status on that game. wait. are we talking about ghosts and goblins or ghouls and ghosts? i remember with ghouls and ghosts once you beat the game the first time, you have to go through the whole frakkin game a second time to get to the real boss at the end. what a ripoff!!

Game genie...of course. But I wonder if anyone has beaten it without it?
Wait, Ghosts and Goblins is the one you have to beat twice....

i have beaten it without it. the game genie thing was a joke.
i actually had to consult my handy dandy nintendo power to beat that game. took me a couple months of afterschool play, but i finally did it. what exactly do you want to know? a certain boss?
and you have to beat ghosts and goblins twice, as well. these games are both ripoffs. heh

I never finished Ninja Gaiden either. Couldn't handle the last boss. Same thing with Zelda II. Evil Link frustrated me to no end.
Punch-Out was a tough game for me until I finally beat Tyson. After that, I could walk through the whole game without going down. I fired it up recently after not having played in probably 15 years, and I made it all the way to Mr. Sandman before I hit the mat. Like riding a bicycle.
Despite all the frustration, I prefer my NES to any console before or since. The difficulty was high enough to make you feel a true sense of accomplishment after finishing a game. Today's games are more like movies that you play through. Most feel like a walk in the park compared to the NES days.

evil link. wow. i forgot about that. come to think of it, i've never beaten zelda II either. i guess it doesn't bother me as much as punch out does.
the thing about the consoles after NES is that the final boss is way too simple to beat after going through the whole game. it was pretty much a let down. Zelda III is a prime example of this.

EDIT: and of course, pacman.
whenever i'm waiting for a movie to start at the local theatre, and i see one of these 4 games, i end up plunking a quarter in and play for 20 minutes straight. heh. i give my game to some kid that's watching my game and head to the movie. usually end up missing the previews each time.

Jay's is so right about how most games nowadays seem like a walk in the park compared to those NES games. I wonder if it has to do with the fact that we've all grown up and stuff. But man those old NES games were tough.

I've never beaten the second quest on The Legend of Zelda, and I've never beaten Zelda II.

Not that that is going to stop you from dreaming… Only in this case, Gaffer is actually a guy.

Dick Tracy, that was one f***ed up game, I didn't finish that one...
Yo-Noid, now, I THINK I did get to the final pizza contest, but I don't belive I won, at least I don't remember it... That was 1989, 1990, I can't remember what I had for lunch yesterday, let alone this...
Ghostbusters! Damn I never got to climb the whole building!
Ghostbusters 2, that was hard too... I was never a good videogame player...
Mario Bros 2! Not the japanese lost levels, the america one... I think I went as far as 6-3 or something... Using warps of course.
Roling Thunder, I couldnt finish that one either...
Games I did finish:
Megaman 2, Megaman 3, Ducktales, Super Mario Bros, Super Mario Bros 3, Baby Boomer (the light gun one), uh... I can't remember, I KNOW I did finish some other games, but I don't remember so well... I've played NES from 89 to 92 or 93, probably 92, when I got my SNES, and played very littlle after that, so I can't remember things so well...
