NEW SHORT: "NINTENDO GAMES THAT NEARLY DROVE ME TO HOMICIDE!"

[Guitar Woman]

So I just beat Castlevania for the first time ever, thanks to Proto's tip about killing Death. That makes two on this list I've beaten without a GameGenie (which, considering Battletoads, is in my eyes absolutely fine to do without becoming a douchebag), and I am now dead-set on getting through all of them, because that's the kind of guy I am. Woo-hoo.

Yeah, once you learn how to deal with that annoying monkey guy, Frankenstein isn't TOO bad, but he's still pretty annoying. What's the other game on the list you've beaten without a game genie?

Megaman, and I've been very close to beating Ninja Gaiden, but I always get killed by those fucking jetpack ninjas. I don't know what it is, but Nintendo had some kind of unwritten rule about every single flying enemy in every game ever being damn-near impossible to kill unless you attack at just the right moment. Every time they get me I always yell some shit about irregular flight patterns. The disembodied unicorn heads in Zelda 2 are a prime example of this.
