  • mega man you saw this coming

  • ZELDA 2?????

  • where is batman ? XD

    and silversurfer is way harder then battletoads :P but TBH, i havent beaten either battletoads or silver surfer XD

  • Also, you show off Blaster Master but it's not on the list. Excuse me, but Fester's Quest? Give credit where credit is due, Fester's Quest has INFINITE CONTINUES. Blaster Master? Die nine times and kick your NES across the room. This honestly is one of the worst top 10 lists you guys have done. I know it's your opinion, but damn... so many other games deserve to be up there. And by the way nice job breaking your own rules on shitty controls with TMNT.

  • You're only making that offer Craig because you know for a fact the game literally locks up second player's controls on Clinger Winger. Otherwise the Something Awful goons would not only have done it, they would have done it before this video came out.

  • #11-Zelda 2

  • >A NEW NES game released in 2009

    Do you know how retarded that sounds? Do you have any sense of dignity left?

  • Where's Punch Out and Metal Gear?

  • Battletoads is the hardest game period.

  •  Bimmy and Jimmy!

  • Why is Mother not on this list?

  • @AceGamer64 it's not hard....no a single mother game is, fun, hell yeah, but hard, no.

  • @Frozenwrathful not to mention it was only in japan. if he had listning on the video he could hear them say no japanese version was allowed

  • @silksofsweden right ... the traanslations were soo good that i thought that at some point i played on NES or snes lol.

  • Fester's quest?

    Really?

  • Yhey really seem to hate castlevania for not putting it in this top 10 and in their top 10 best bes game.

  • @TheAGKMisadventures Seems like they picked their top ten hardest games based on AVGN reviews. I mean really. I could name way better games that aren't ACTUALLY as broken as games mentioned in this list are.

  • @Bastiest

    Just play castlevania 3 without savestates, game genie or cheat codes. Let me tell you: It's nearly unfinishable.

  • @TheAGKMisadventures Beat it couple of days ago.

    On actual NES. Just takes lots of time and effort.

  • @Bastiest

    If that's true, respect! But this game is still a hard motherfucker.

  • @TheAGKMisadventures No, no it's not. Just max out your weapons with first brain blops you see right in begining of the game and avoid weapon down bars and you're good to go.

  • Want a hard game to play, try playing Snake Rattle N' Roll--see if you can actually beat the final boss in it!

  • @kidokoala ahh.... I recall hammering away at that fucker for hours to no avail..

  • LOL I love how in every top 10 list.. there are always a bunch of retards who have to cry

    'Where's (whatever game)?'

  • Nervous Nick sounds intimidatingly the same as Handsome Tom.

  • Air fortress is pretty tough

  • battletoads is impossible on 2 players because level 11 is broken and can not work with 2 players at the same time, for some reason only one player can move and the other just sits there.

  • @thekillingmonky only in the NTSC version

  • when a game gets hard, REAL gamers use the genie!!

  • What, Baiyou Billy? I beat that game so many times when I was a kid! Lame.

  • Comment removed

  • did anyone win the battletoads challenge?

  • I am a little surprised so many people are asking where Castlevania is, it really isn't that hard of a game, Castlevania 3 maybe, but the original was only difficuly because of the Grim Reaper, but he can be taken out easily by exploiting the holy water trick.

  • Where the fuck is castlevania? Castlevania 3? Either one I mean fuck.

  • OMG i miss Funco land so much. because there, they actually sold retro video games for fair prices. nowadays game stores don't even carry gameboy Color games or even N64, why? IDK they are fucking evil that's why. They shouldn't even be called game stores because as soon as a game reaches the age of 10 years they won't even buy it from you, not even in the best condition. No bargain bins full of awesome 8-bit, 16-bit, or even 64-bit wonders. they just sell crap now. >:(

  • @magmaRoo7 Because, apparently, Wii games are crap! It makes total sense now! *sarcasm*

  • @leynad72 Yeah! and it's because your mom has a dick!

  • Where's Megaman 2?!

  • @chazmonger98 Compared to these that game was EASY, espcially when you consider the metal man gun

  • No Mega Man 1? Come on!

  • no Trojan?

  • milons secret castle..... fuck

  • what about zelda 2?

  • this should be top 10 most annoying hard games :P

  • Lol, TMNT1 isn't hard excluding the last area, i'll admit its tedious though.

  • You want a hard NES game with an ending? Play "Wizardry: Proving Grounds of the Mad Overlord".

  • Comment removed

  • This belongs on Screwattack, not here.

  • FUCK YEAH!!! BATTLETOADS!!! I loved ProtonJon's race of that game.

  • since Castlevania isnt here, im gonna guess you havent played it

  • Oh Fuckin Ninja Turtles That Game Is Freaking Hard

  • number 8 looked like I Wanna Be A Guy

  • Did anyone win the challenge?

  • @rclsu13 I don't know if anyone won this challenge but it has been done by a guy here on yutube xisomaniac check him out

  • Ninja Gaiden 3 should be on here

  • this was just an AVGN rip-off.

  • ninja gaiden is insanely hard! It should be the 1st place!

  • I guess I'm the weird one that would put Ghosts N Goblins above all else in terms of difficulty. Even in Contra the enemies and upgraded weapons make the levels pretty easy. In GNG, you always end up with that piece of shit fire weapon and hurts you too if you walk in it.

  • Oh guess what i played Battletoads With my older brother and it was Fun but i didnt find it Super Difficult. infact i found the Contra games more difficult -_- Why do you guys Lie so much? have you even played Castlevania? any actuall fun Hard games? Sure battletoads can be on the list But on number 1??? pfft pethetic!

  • Silver Surfer isnt hard it JUST SUCKS!!! Seriously Why Put BAD games as Hard ones??? it had bad controls it had terrible Gameplay mechanic And you guys Should Stop lieing about it having to have Good Controls to be able to be on this list BECAUSE SILVER SURFER CONTROLS SUCKED ASS!!!

  • Wait Why Put Festers Quest when its a Bad game and ITSELF HAS SUCKY CONTROLS??? you Fking Cheaters and Liars!!! THIS IS BLASPHAMY!!!

  • Top 10 Hardest NES Games?

    Top 10 Worst* NES Games.

  • I don't see why the NES gets so much praise. Most of these games looked hard out plain bad design. Flying backwards into a pitfall when you get hit, how is that fair? Not to mention Silver Surfer, which doesn't even look possible to beat.

  • @MajorPayne92 Because the NES brought life back into the Western Gaming industry. It was the first console to really take you on an adventure, and for its time, the graphics were breath taking when compared to the Atari 2600. The NES is known for giving birth to some very iconic games and some love it for the difficulty.

    The NES not only has nostalgic porpoises, but it is one of the most defining parts of Gaming history, turning around the damage Atari did to the gaming market.

  • @MajorPayne92 but there are so many games. Silver Surfer is an awful game. But games like Mario 3, Legend of Zelda and Metroid are proof of amazing NES games.

  • @MajorPayne92 Metroid, Contra, Super Mario Bros. 3... problem?

  • Most of these games are really easy. Where's Holy Diver? Where's Recca? Where's Top Gun The Second Mission? These games are hard.

  • you guys should do a "easiest video games" list

    ...

  • where's castlevania?

  • @xxchimakaraxx i was thinking the same....WHERE THE HECK ARE MY HOLY FUCKING STUPIDLY PERFECTLY I.A PROGRAMED TO FUCK YOU,MEDUSA HEADS? oh! and the lvl you fight death,medusa heads AND axe armor .......

  • @xxchimakaraxx For that matter, where is Legend of Zelda 2: Adventure of Link?

  • @luigibarqs they were at least possable to beat

  • @xxchimakaraxx I would say where is castlevania 3

  • @xxchimakaraxx not hard enough to make the list that's where xP

  • @xxchimakaraxx its not that F%#$ing hard.

  • @xxchimakaraxx most likely cuz castlevania while difficult isn't unfair, it is in general relatively fair.

  • Should Battle Kid be counted because it is was created recently?  Ninja Turtles, Fester's Quest, Double Dragon 3 and Silver Surfer shouldn't count because the controls suck on those games and I've beaten Battletoads before...with a friend. All you really have is keep distance between you and the 2nd player.

  • This list is bullshit, I defeated every game on this list when I was 5, no cheats, all me!

  • @CheapJabroni Yeah, you beat Battle Kid when you were five. coolstorybro.

  • @Icarus528 Yeah, I did

  • @CheapJabroni This presents a problem:

    1. Battle Kid wasn't even around when you were five.

    2. If you WERE five when you beat Battle Kid, why the fuck are you on youtube?

  • and...Lordkat wins.

    Oh, did you forget he has beeten alost ALL these games!?

  • lets have frog legs!!!

  • BATTLE KID IS IN! BATTLE.KID! CALL SIVAK AND TELL HIM HE IS GOD!

  • Ninja gaiden 3 was harder than ninja gaiden

  • Where is Castlevania?

  • sooooo where are my videos?

  • I'm just gonna take The Angry Video Game Nerds advice, I believe he said it was either dr jekyll and mr Hyde or ninja gaiden III that was the hardest nes game

  • how did zelda 2 not make the list

  • @appletechsmart2 Zelda 2 is hard? News to me.

  • @Axelhander Wasn't trying to be douchey in that reply btw.

  • battle kid so that's were that guy came from.

  • game at 0:35? I cannot remember for the life of me.

  • @DoloDigital Before Tetris.

  • Super C is hella easier than Contra.

  • Bayou billy aint hard

  • Bayou billy aint hard

  • Bayou billy aint hard. it's overhyped

  • Bayou billy aint hard. it's overhyped by youtube

  • Bayou billy aint hard.... it's overhyped by youtube

  • Something funny is that the Angry Video Game pretty much reviewed most of these.

  • Make a new list. Hardest games worth playing.

  • @alfaucko "contra"

  • @alfaucko it's not his list, it's a screwattack list, you should check out there website sometime :)

  • @alfaucko I agree, there is superficial difficulty, and then there's legitimate difficulty. There will always be superficially difficult games, where shit flies at the speed of light and kills you before you can realize it's there, but what's truly impressive is a game that's both well designed and difficult.

  • Uhm, why wasn't Dragon's lair on there?

  • @WilliamTheViking Because it has shitty controls, ScrewAttack has made a top ten hardest games list where the game should have some decent controls, like he said in the video :)

  • #8 oooooooooh so that's where I Wanna Be The Guy got it's inspiration from!

  • i hate pink seaweed

  • Honorable mentions:

    -Life Force

    -Snake Rattle n Roll

    -Castlevania

    -The Adventures of Rad Gravity

    

  • did anyone do the challenge?

  • @Linksapprentice100 its not possible, there's a glitch on the 3rd lvl that will not allow the second player, on the speed bike part, to make one of the jumps.

  • @UstraMage and theres no warp thing to skip that level?

  • @UstraMage ? I got past it...

  • @Xenotech2000 With 2 players? not one player but with a second player through the whole race. The glitch will always not let the second player make a jump.

  • @UstraMage Oh, I misread your comment, sorry

  • I think castlevania 3 should be here

  • Huh...I was sure Battletoads would be there somewhere...and it was. I also thought Adventure of Link would be there though...

  • so you thought The Adventures of Bayou Billy was hard... I bet you haven't even finished the game... just wait until you meet Louis Tor-Ture and Rocky & Rocco...

    i promise you, you haven't even seen half of the game yet...

  • What about Earth Bound? yeah it's unreleased but it deserves atleast 9

  • ghouls n ghosts on megadrive i remember playing that over and over and over and still never beat it.. hard as shit, got as far as those caves with tongue platforms i think.. played it for many hours when i was a kid.

  • I beat battletoads without cheating on an emulator. no savestates.

  • I've beaten battle toads without cheating before, it is possible, it just takes a lot of practice. I think some of the other games on this are harder to be honest.

  • what about the first metal gear or friday the 13th?

  • @bulldogs65dt Friday the 13th wasn't that hard, but you only had to know how to find the torch, otherwise you can just give up.

  • what no castlevania?

  • @RandomTvNation Technically the controls helps it to be a hard game. So, it doesn't count : /

  • You thought Bimmy and Jimmy was ricockulous?

    5:19

    

  • I'll never understand why every one of these lists uses the original Ninja Gaiden instead of 3. I will agree that the original is a much better 3 but it's so much harder. The ruthless overdamage and insane level designs... ARGH. It was years before I was able to beat it where as the original Ninja Gaiden I beat way back in the 90s.

  • I wonder if someone managed to win Battletoads in single mode...

    by just using the Powerglove...

  • Wasn't there a user named PinkKittyRose that did a playthrough of BattleToads all the way to the end?

  • @MrJDC77 I'm not sure, but I know that "Cornshaq" did a play through of battletoads, with commentary and honestly can't remember if it was a no death run..... have a feeling that he died once

  • congraturation

    this story is happy end

    thank you

  • Adventure Island is harder than half these games.

  • Battle kid? I know a game like that...... N+

    You're a ninja and you have to manoevre threw a level.

    I LIKE THAT GAME

  • Thumbs up for Spread Gun :D

  • please could someone tell me the name of the game at 00:34

  • @saulherradonbernardo blaster master

  • tmnt is not as hard as the impossible pc version, there is a jump you just can not make.

  • These games were difficult, but many were by bad design.

    Of this list, Super C and Battle Kid really are well made and feature all the "good" kinds of challenge. The sort a steady hand and a wit could feasibly conquer on the first try, which is how you know it's "good" challenge and not "designed only to take quarters" challenge. The rest are borderline or bad, especially Battletoads.

  • Ok, all of these are good except number 8, its not TECHNICALLY an NES game, it was never on the NES during its life time, so you can't count that, give me a substitute.

  • @xaviorbat Other than it's totally an NES game with a cart, and totally counts, making you wrong.

  • @Axelhander You do realize getting a NES cart nowdays isn't that hard? So no, retard, it doesn't count, now if you want to continue being rude, we can, or we can be civilized and stop this here.

  • @xaviorbat Irrelevant, yes it counts on account of it being a cart and an NES game that works on actual NES units, you wish you could be as hilariously rude as me, and you're an idiot.

    In that order.

  • Battletoads..... thats what she said.

  • Fuck you Battletoads.... you fucking wrecked my childhood.

    It wasn't just hard... it was fun as fuck too.... so you wanted to keep playing, but you kept dying and having to restart over and over over and over and over because you couldn't stop. It's like the crack cocaine for kids

  • @crocodile2006 I know right! And the fact that players can hit each others in 2 player mode didn't help at all back then lmao

  • @joaovictor1994 other*

  • i almost beat most of the games you mentioned, as a matter of fact i beat battletoads from level 1 trought level 12 win any continues, and lots of life to beat Dark Queen. in 2 player mode i only could reach level eight (robomanus level) after i try to beat the level with my brother only i survive.

    And yeah Battle kid loks a lot oflikeI wanna be the guy

  • I hate TMNT, I never beat that game.

  • So, how hard as Dark Souls compared to these? I'm curious.

  • Mega Man has always been easy... If spy hunter had an ending it would be there

  • DAMN RIGHT Battletoads is the hardest game on the nes. lol

  • but you've gotta admit, battle toads is a pretty fun game... or at least when your watching someone else playing... or should i say failing at it

  • Why wasn't Shingen the Ruler on the list? That game is, by far, harder than every single game on this list. Me and my brother beat Battletoads the first day we got it. Fucking noobs.

  • If you do a SNES one, the number 1 has to be Spiderman & X-Men: Arcade's Revenge.

  • Tbh Im surprised Gradius isn't on here. I still can barely get past level 3 on that game.

  • Battletoads hardest nes game? LOL bullsh/t have they ever played Adventure Island?

  • @MasterVili You mean the secret ending, right? Or was that only in Wonder Boy?

  • FUCK YEAH!!!!! Battle Kid is hard as shit.

  • Come on! Double Dragon 3 harder than Ninja Gaiden?! Roflmao? DD3 is very easy and the sping kick works fine :|

  • I won the contest BTW

    =D

  • You reviewed most of the games I played when I was little, I never beat any of them sadly. They were tendiously mind numbing, cheap, frustratingly RAGEQUIT hard XP

    

  • Battletoads just takes the cake. This Clinger Winger stage is driving me nuts!

  • Silver Surfer>Battletoads, I'd say.

  • @MaximumPayne12 Rat Race

  • Battletoads is hard, not impossible. I've beaten it more than once, but it takes lot of memorization (and the warps certainly help). It's easier than most of the games on this list...

    Finishing the game with 2 players is literally impossible because of a glitch in the game. (Clinger Winger Level). I don't know why people hate on this game so much - it's one of my all-time favorites.

  • There are four games that I'm surprised that weren't mentioned: Zelda 2, Dick Tracy, Dragon's Lair, and............Dr. Jekyl and Mr. Hyde. Very surprised.
