Short games that took you too long to beat

Probably Paper Mario: TTYD. During the Glitz Pit on my 1st play through, I would always fight to the death those annoying invincible guys, dying over and over again not realzing

I had to run away to hatch the Yoshi egg.

I probably spent a good couple unneccesary hours battling them without realizing what to do. I learned an important lesson that day: 

Learn when to quit.

Beyond that, I was also pretty slow in solving the whole game, even if it was my 1st RPG type game and I was in 5th grade at the time.

Yep, TTYD was very good. I loved chapter 3 and 6. My first playthrough was like 65-70 hours or so.
Also Twilight Princess. 60-70hours.
