Memorization is key in platformers.... at least in the old school games. Megaman, Contra, Castlevania, Ninja Gaiden, Battletoads.... all of them you have to learn the game to master it.
I was looking for old games at Amazon, and one reviewer said something that grabbed my attention
"Old school games were made to beat you"
And it's true! One would die constantly until knowing what to do, at the same time our skills in that game improved. Nowadays games are so easy that is really boring, I can remember many levels from old games, but I can't remember from New Super Mario Wii because they were so easy I could pass them in the first try (until later levels)
With that said, I didn't find the DK Country games hard at all, I agree this one is harder
