i think either Battletoads/Double Dragon or Super Empire Strikes Back are the hardest. both for SNES. i had to use cheats for BTDD and when i got to the end... THEY CALLED ME ON IT!!! that asshat little bird guy that is like the Toads leader said "well good job, you beat the dark queen but at least the dark Queen doesn't chat. try it again without the warps". I WAS SO PISSED!!
oh, and Ghostbusters 2 for the NES was hard to, lol

Qnything on the c64, I never completed a game, as soon as you had to press play on the tape to load the next lvl I lost. I presume I got killed by something 🙂.... oh and a game based on popeye.
Ah, the old "press play on tape" message! Then you had to wait 10 minutes for the game to load 😄
How about ET?
It's generally considerred as the worst game of all time because it's so impossible.
I tried it via a ROM, and it's impossible. You go in a pit near the beginning, and the only way out of the pit is to extend ET's neck and jump precisely within a millionth of a second of a time window. Miss the window of opportunity, and you don't play the game.
The game was refunded as soon as people played it. Apparently the company that made it recalled the lot, and dumped all the carts in the desert.
The game is impossible beyond comparison.

hard games due to programmer stupidity: Back to the Future, Back to the Future II and III, Marvel's X-Men, Wolverine, Wolverine: Adamantium Rage, X-Men (genesis, the first one), the entire Super Star Wars series, all the Zelda CD-i games, A Boy and his Blob, Metal Gear, this list could go on
Yes, I have wolverine admantium rage and I don't think I've ever gotten past the second level...or to it....i forget.
Whats the most difficult game you've ever played?
Personally I haven't come across a game I couldn't beat without much difficulty since the NES days. flex So any answer I give will have to come form there and I know just what I'm going to choose.
Top Gun 2
I have no idea how anyone could have beat this game. I never once even got past the level 2 boss. One could argue that at that time, a flying game on NES just wouldn't be well developed enough and it was only hard becuase frankly they didn't really give you much of a chance.
(If that's not the case then I just had no clue how to play that game. 😆 )
If that is the case I will say the mose challengeing game I've played sis Battletoads on NES. Some how I did manage to beat it once on maybe my 50th try or so one day. Now that was a hard game. Fun too.
