Because hardcore gamers spend much longer playing games so a game which is difficuly and requires you to invest alot of time is going to be hardcore.
Having said that I think since the transition to 3D games have gotten much easier. Now if you figure out what you have to do you are sorted (and you even have internet sites that tell you what to do). In the days of Nes games were so difficult they could drive youi insane (I'm looking at you Contra, Battletoads, Ninja Turtles, Ninja Gaiden)
