I mainly collect for the Sega Genesis and original Game Boy, but I also enjoy quite a few other systems more casually.

Having now spent 11 hours playing Super Mario Bros. 3 and finally making it to World 8 (where I am completely stuck) I can safely say that I hate this game. There is no reason whatsoever that a video game should ever be this oppressively difficult.

  On the flip side, Nintendo has kinda taken the difficulty curve in a different direction in recent years and now their games are way too easy. I think I had something like 80 lives in reserve when I finished Super Mario 3D Land. It seems like the N64 and GameCube eras were kind of the sweet spot where Nintendo games were challenging but not too hard nor too easy.

  smb3 really isn't that hard. Now that you've trudged through it, good to know how to warp though so you don't spend 11 hours next time

  I have had a similar complaint about Nintendo's arcade offerings of the 80's. Even on their easiest settings, games like Donkey Kong, Popeye, and Donkey Kong Jr. can be frustrating compared to their US counterparts.
