The best I've ever done at 1943 is 945,000. I want to break 1,000,000, but I now magically suck at the game and I can't even defeat the mission 4 boss! I don't know what's wrong with me...
I am happy to report that I just got 1,048,400 at 1943. I feel better now!

30,201,920 on the Genesis version of OutRun. its not a world record or anything but its a P.B. I am proud of
beating Monster Party for NES without any help from guides/Youtube/FAQs/etc. this game was a favorite as a kid and I always needed Game Genie to get through it. 20 years later and once I got past level 1 I realized the game was easy
Gargoyles Quest 2. This wasnt a walk in the park but somehow I beat it
Speed run of SMB1. Couldnt tell you my fastest time. Sub 5 minutes I believe.
getting the black car on PS1 Ridge Racer
figuring out how to jump across Vvardenfel in Morrowind on my own. i felt proud of myself for figuring that out haha
208,639 on Tetris for Game Boy. its not the highest score but its a PB

I don't know if I've ever done anything particularly impressive in a game. I mean, to begin with, many of my favorite genres aren't known for being difficult, like RPGs and visual novels, and I'm not at all into stuff like speedrunning and 1CC'ing. And usually I play games on their defeat difficulty, very rarely increasing them to something harder (unless the default is still pathetically easy like in, say, Rhapsody: A Musical Adventure).
But I have beaten some games that people often claim are so tough, like the first Castlevania, Castlevania Adventure, StarTropics, Legacy of the Wizard, Zelda II, Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels, Skate or Die: Bad 'N Rad, etc. I've 100% cleared some games that are maybe not so challenging but still take an investment of time and effort that a lot of people aren't willing to put in, like Pokemon Pinball (caught 'em all), Castlevania: Circle of the Moon (beat all six modes), and Donkey Kong 64 (and I didn't have trouble getting the Nintendo Coin, which a lot of people freak out about). I've beaten a couple staff ghosts in F-Zero X, which took a massive amount of practice. Beating Boxxle was a big accomplishment for me. Took me years of on and off playing. Some of those damn puzzles had me stuck for weeks or months even. Back when I knew almost no Japanese, I played through a lot of text-heavy imports that a lot of people think are impossible to beat and enjoy if you're not fluent in Japanese. People underestimate how far a little trial and error can get you, and unless all you care about is story, you can still enjoy all the exploring and battling in RPGs even if you can't read the text.
