NES-Hard ~ Episode 1: Examining the Hardest Games on the NES

Stop me if you’ve heard this, but apparently people have invented a term to explain why they’re so terrible at video games: “NES-Hard.” I guess because all NES games are hard? I dunno, I don’t get it either...

Anyway, because I’m fond of disagreeing with popular opinion, I decided to make a list of the NES games most often mentioned in conversations about the “hardest games of all time” ... and then play those games... and then make videos about them and stuff.

I don’t know if I’m explaining it very well, so maybe check out my video and hopefully you’ll see where I’m going with this.

A lot of good music is also featured in this video:

"Avi's News Report" (Mighty No. 9)
"Dr Wily Stage 2" (Mega Man Powered Up)
"Dr Wily Stage Map" and "Dr Wily Stage Selection" (Mega Man 11)
"Dense Forest Battle" (Jukebeat / Contra Compilation Vol 2: The Beginning of Legends)
"Advancement" (Mega Man X8)
And, of course, a handful of selections from the amazing Contra OST.
