    Castlevania 2?!?!?! Are you MAD, man?! I hope to NEVER have to play that game again. I must have wasted away a grand total of days of my youth frustratingly attempting to get anywhere in that game.

    Also, I have the New Super Mario Bros for my DS and it friggin rules. I can imagine it being even crazier on the Wii.

    I have actually but what i think miike is saying, and i Agree, those games are maddeningly hard, but that's how old school games were.

    Anyone remember the old ghouls and ghosts?

    If that didn't make you lose your patience then you automatically qualify for sainthood.

    Which one? The arcade or the home version of Ghouls & Ghosts? I have a copy of the arcade on a Capcom Collections disk. I only made in past 3 stages. It was tough, but my friend surpassed me. I beat the home version of Ghosts & Goblins, but not the arcade. I only defeated the dragon.

    I did beat Castlevania 2, after Nintendo Power released the tip about kneeling at the cliff. During my earlier days, I could beat the game under a couple of hours. It also had multiple endings, which was unheard of at the time.

    You're the first people I've ever talked to that have beat Simon's Quest.

    I wasn't referring to the difficulty, though. I was referring to how bad the game was, all around. However, the difficulty definitely added hate for it.

    Oh yeah, games were notoriously difficult back in the day.

    If it wasn't for Nintendo power magazine, there are many a game that would have drove me insane.

    The even had tips for mike Tyson's punch out that made it much easier to progress through that game as well.

    I still have a huge box of old Nintendo Power magazines. Are they worth anything?

    Only for getting through those mind numbingly hard old school games.

    Good thing you did not beat it, because the fight with Dracula would piss you off.





    All 3 endings. Btw, I could beat Dracula before he even moves. I was that quick.
