I trend toward this as well, but there is something nice about overcoming a difficult challenge, as long as said challenge feels fair. For instance, when I beat Star Fox and Kung Fu on original hardware last year, both in separate play-throughs without any thought put into them other than for the purpose of wanting something to pass time, it was extremely exhilarating, and I had forgotten how good it felt.
Do you find yourself missing that sort of thing? I know I did.
