Craw: I never understood why people thought Super Ghouls and Ghost was such a hard game, it is a challenge, but hardest?

Easiest Game - Super Mario World, game wasn't hard at all. But it was still great fun. And Sonic the Hedgehog games, and also any Megaman game from 1-6, and X-X6. My friend was totally horrid when I let him borrow X4, I watched him and it was almost sad ...

Hardest Game - Easy, Battletoads.

Yoshi's Story was a rip-off. It only took me 1 1/2 hours to beat.

I never played the original Battletoads, actually, but if Battletoads in Battlemaniacs is any indication, SG&G >>>> it. I hear the original, Ghosts 'n Goblins, is much tougher.

Trust me, Ghosts n' Goblins NES, Genesis, and Super, are all easy compared to the original Battletoads.

I can't remember what Battlemaniacs was, one for the SNES maybe? Those were "easier" compared to the NES ones.

Contra for the Genesis was also a noisy biatch.

Shortest: Super Mario World. I got it for the GBA (well... my DS) and beat it in... uhh... 100% in about 1 hour. That is after beating Bowser a bunch of times.

Longest: Animal Crossing. Don't ask why.

Easiest: Kirby's Dream Land. Very simple and only four short levels. I still liked it though...

Hardest: Varies. Viewtiful Joe and Battletoads. VJ is just tough. Battletoads... I remember playing a while ago and well... not getting past level 2... or was it level 1?

Oh god, I forgot the original Kirby. Now *that*, although a good game, was not exactly worth what the price tag said.

Super Mario Land falls into that category too, sadly enough. (Length-wise.)

I have Battletoads for the real NES. I only got to the 8th level and then I died.

Yes, Battlemaniacs is for SNES. Didn

Longest: Eh.. I'll just say Tales of Symphonia, even though I haven't beaten it yet. It's long.

Shortest: Adventure for the 2600. It's fun, and has a high replay value (you can randomize the entire game), but it takes like 5 minutes to beat, if even that.

Easiest: Sonic Drift for Game Gear. When you can beat EVERY stage at the highest difficulity without much trouble the first time you play it, something's wrong. I think I died at least once in the original Kirby.

Hardest: No idea. There's a lot of hard games out there. I'll just put Battletoads (NES) for now.

Hardest: Mother or as some people call it... Earthbound zero. The unrelesed version is suppodly easier than the Japanse one from what I heard, but it's still too hard. And that's by playing the game without levelling up for hours...

Easiest: ...I really don't come up with any for the moment.

Longest: Simcity, The sims and... wait thoose games are infinite. When they do end, it's always becuse of something bad. (all family members died, the city's budget is really low etc). If it's not infinite then... Civilization III, for having a big replayblity. A game start to finish can take days, if you play like crazy. Otherwise... weeks.

Shortest: I think I just say... SMB, becse I don't come up with anything better.

Homebrew demo hentai games don't count.

Shortest and easiest had to be Yoshi's Story. First time I played it I had everything within about 3 hours. Hardest I didn't just get sick of and quit was probably Mario 64. (Not too hard, but some of the stars *cough*level4*cough* and the last Bowser are a huge pain, especially on an N64 controller.) Longest I actually finished was Metroid 2, and it was DAMN fun! (To be honest, I used a Save Anywhere cheat with Metroid 2, because I played it in school a lot. But I didn't use any other cheats or abuse it and restart every time I got into a bad situation. )

Hardest must be Guardian Legend because it took me several tries to get past the first level.

Longest - I logged over 80 hours on Final Fantasy Tactics back in the day. I never got around to beating it, though. I probably spent about that much time messing around with the original Dark Cloud. I never completely beat that one, either. (I finished the game, but I got bored trying to get to the top of the Demon Shaft. I wonder if that save game is still around...I'm rather curious now...)

Shortest - A first runthrough of Shadow of Destiny only takes a few hours, and subsequent runthroughs (which you have to do if you want to get all the endings) are even shorter because you can skip already-viewed cut scenes and save some time.

Easiest - This touch-screen bartop game called Dead Bug. Bugs appear one at a time, and you have to touch the flies to kill them and avoid the roaches. If you miss too many flies or touch too many roaches, it's game over. This is best played after a few drinks. It's an absolute joke to sober people because it never gets any more difficult. I came across this when I was out to dinner with my family years ago, and I got some ridiculous amount of points and only stopped playing because it was time to leave.

Hardest - Deadly Towers...or maybe Devil May Cry because I just couldn't get the hang of the gameplay. Even on the easy setting, I could never get past the sewer mission with that goat-head asshat with the giant scissors. Extreme fast-twitch action in 3D just doesn't work well for me.

Edit - Guardian Legend was certainly a toughie, but I didn't think of it because I managed to get very far (to the last boss) without cheats or anything. Some levels, like that infernal Red Grimgrin corridor, required about five gazillion and two retries and tons of frustration (and Enemy Erasers), but it felt so good when I would finally beat them.

I suck at Battletoads. I would either die in the end of the third level or wind up crashing into the warp to level five, and I could never get past that one either. Rando can beat it without save states or cheats. Damn his w00t sk1llz.

Longest: FFTA. Logged a 100 hours on my first file alone, deleted it on accident, then played another 30 (I think)
Shortest: Pikmin... I played about 5 minutes before I was "done", and by done I mean I murdered every one of my Pikmin.

Easiest: Super Mario World. That game was just TOO easy.
Hardest: No one thought of DDR Extreme, now did they?

Easiest: Primal Rage. I beat the whole game on difficulty 14 with 3 rounds, no cheats, in 17 minutes.

Shortest: Clock Tower 3. The story was easy to figure out and the outcome was so clear. Thus it made the game seem very short.

Longest: FFVI. Took me over 3 months to beat it with cheats and much longer without.

Hardest: Bebe's Kids. Truly a cheaply difficult game with the worst graphics money can buy. Although the timer is set to about 5 minutes, your juvie child characters move and even jump at snail's pace. They fight off adults (most likely clones of them) and take forever to kill. You cannot advance to the next part of the level without beating them all. Once you beat the first level, you advance to a pointless obstacle in which your rotten baby brother, Pee Wee knocks glassware over in random directions. Chances of beating the game at this point is almost too low to even care about. It's best to feed this game to your neighbor's dog and count your blessings...

Shortest - Super Mario Land. 4 worlds, 3 levels each, and for the 'final boss' a total of under 13 seconds to beat both bosses (the cloud and the true final boss) -- granted, it was on an emulator, but I've managed to kill them in 14 secs on a real cart

Longest - Columns Crown (GBA)... try getting all 24 gems. I've only gotten 23, and I can't think of any other way to get them

Hardest - Too bad I forgot what might go here, since I tend to avoid the harder games (I suck) ... oh well.

Easiest - RBI Baseball (NES) - National team + Shitty AI = Win!
