Ive asked myself tons of times. I dont know Battletoads is real hard but I dont know thats my opinion.

Ahh man this guy is back
Ghosts and Goblins, and Ninja Gaiden.
Also- I thought the first Maximo was a huge pain in the ass.
Another vote for Ghosts and Goblins. I don't know anyone personally that ever beat that game.
Faxanadu is really hard, but maybe that is because I never had the instructions.
And nobody ever anywhere beat Impossible Mission for the 7800 because, well, it is impossible.
I'm thinking there has to be something harder than GnG. But for now, that's all I can think of.
Knowledge is Power.
Power corrupts.
Study hard.
Be evil.
Treasure Master. I don't know if it's because I was 10 and couldn't figure this crappy game out or what but I could never get past the first level.
Deadly Towers isn't hard. It just sucks.
It's hard for me to assess the difficulty of terrible games, since I usually stop playing them soon after I start.
I've never played it, but I bet this game is harder than Battletoads or GnG:

The game of life of course!
Haven't we done this thread many times over already?
At the very least, it is important to keep in mind that there are different kinds of "challenge". I like the way Mr. J_Factor put it:

Xbox Ninja Gaiden.
The very last boss is a total bitch and a half. But when you beat it, the sense of accomplishment is astounding. It's like getting 1000 achievement points, all at once.
My vote goes to the oft-overlooked Wolverine: Adamantium Rage for the SNES. I'd place it even higher than G n' G any day.
Oh right, backing that up. The thing is, while G n' G has some good "Twitch" gameplay, where after a while you can just get in a groove (albeit a hard groove). Adamantium Rage has none of this, due to the slower pace of the game itself, making one hard mother shut your mouth of a game.
Welcome to Macintosh.
I'd say Festers Quest for the NES, I haven't played it in many many years, but I always remember having a hard time with it.
I'd have to go with Dragon's Lair for the NES. Your character is super slow, many enemies come at you. Hell... even throwing a dagger consumes your energy.
Not only is it the hardest game I've tried, it's also tops my most hated list for the same reasons.
All depends on how you play. If you hold yourself to "high standards" like J Factor mentioned with playing an arcade game with a single credit, titles can become super hard.
It's not about if you win, it's about how you get there. I'm still trying to beat Radiant Silvergun without using any continues.
As far as games that are super hard, I'd throw Alien Soldier in there. I like to drink coffee before I play so I'm on my toes.

[QUOTE=Moo Cow;1216433]Pfft. I'd beat that game blindfolded, handcuffed, drunk, coked up, with leeches sucking on my nipples.

The Terminator on the Game Gear. No, really. Go emulate it if you don't have it.
The correct answer is Sinistar.
