At least they have Super Mario Bros. The first NES games I owned were that and Ghosts 'n Goblins. I already liked the arcade game, so I knew what was in store. Years later, I learned it had an infamous reputation for being hard, but I never noticed at the time because pretty much all games were hard as balls back then.

Are you me? It was the first NES game I opened, before I even had the NES.

Still haven't beaten it. I don't think I ever even made it through every level.
