this

if this game wasnt so hard it would be 10x more beloved

the worst part of the retro era was how hard the games were. they didnt realize that games were meant for relaxation, since developing games is so goddamn difficult and anal

Amazing how these games were beaten by children. I got to the end of zelda II and I was 8 years old. You could do better if you liked a challenge and didn't just want to disassociate and zone out to escape from your pathetic life

The difficulty spike is unbelievable in this game. I'm not complaining, but seriously it's fucking crazy how hard it gets all of the sudden in the 2nd level.

Old games AREN'T "hard". They were literally played by and beaten by literal CHILDREN. You must have a literal physical disability if you can't play those games.

Not for the operators. Old arcade games like this were designed to make money first and foremost.

Fucking THIS. As a teenager, I hated grinding in RPGs and for many years EarthBound was my favorite RPG because you could avoid battles so easily. Then one day as an adult I played Dragon Warrior for the first time, and although I got my ass kicked by Slimes
right away I suddenly “got it”. Maybe it was the music and the charming graphics that made me want to continue, but I found myself embracing the challenge of getting stronger. A few years after that I was able to beat EarthBound Zero without cheating, and then Zelda II, and then just a year or so ago I finally beat Metroid without a Game Genie.

To anyone reading this who struggles to find these hard-ass old games fun, please take this post as encouragement to not give up. If you can embrace the challenge—even if you have to force yourself!—when you finally come through on the other side of it your sense of gratification will be a hundred times what it would have been playing an easier game. And you will feel like a badass.

I beat the dragon quest superfamicom remake with the dragon warrior English patch and thought the same thing. The concept of Ganbatte comes to minds. Why do you think all these young people are so depressed and mentally ill? you need to strive and try to defeat the obstacles in life

At the risk of being called a weeb, I totally agree with you. You have to rise to the challenge, embrace the concept of "ganbatte" ("You can do it!") or else your struggles will be meaningless.

Smash TV, Total Carnage and NARC can all be 1ccd,

but as far as I can tell, T2 and Revolution X cannot. All five of these games are commonly regarded as unfair, but I wonder why Midway allowed all but two of them to be 1cc-able?
