Why would someone have to play a nes(snes?) game to be hardcore?

They don't. It's just it's a well-known fact most of the hardest games ever made were in that era.

Maybe some games from that era were hard, but those games weren't the platformers on which all you had to do was to remember the levels.

Yes. These games were, well, Contra, Mega Man, Super Mario Bros. 2, Final Fantasy, Ogre Battle, to name a few

A golden age of gaming if there ever was one

I have to disagree with that. I could not call that era and especially those games golden even if I was paid to. :P
