ITT: God tier NES games.
I'll start

Why not Ghosts 'n Goblins? I have OCD and I must start a series from the beginning.

I made a thread recently about getting to the last level of Ghost n' Goblins and giving up....well tonight I played it again and beat it!

Holy shit was it hard. This is probably the hardest game I've ever beaten, and I beat 'Contra: Shattered Soldier' with an S ranking.

Here is a video I took of the triumphant event. Fuck yeah bros. High fives all around.

What are some other really hard games for the NES?

Have any of you guys ever beat Ghost n' Goblins? No save state bullshit, I'm talking really beat it.

I played it for over three hours tonight and am giving up. I got really close to beating level 6 one time. Here is a video of it.

I hit the Satan at the end like 7 times with the cross instead of the required 8 times. Then he ran into me.

I took a video of my last attempt.
