I guess that for once my hint isn't too easy, here it is again for everyone:

#43 Hint: NES game with an open world, power ups that allow you to progress further, no hand holding whatsoever and insane difficulty.

Hint Part 2: I guess there's a lot of NES games that fit my description... The game I'm looking for has no save option and a limited number of continues which is part of the reason it's so hard to beat.


I was hoping that you would expand over the hints, not just re-post them again >_>

 

I honestly have no clue. My lack of NES library knowledge is shameful, so the only thing that rings a bell right now is Megaman.

The story is about a boy trying to rescue his pet frog (should be really easy now if you ever heard of the game).

Also, here goes my hint for #42:

 

Press X to stare at froth.

#43 - The Incredible Hulk: Ultimate Destruction (Radical Entertainment, 2005) - PS2 (also available on Xbox and GameCube)

 

For a loooooong time, this was my absolute favorite super-hero game. The sense of freedom you get being the Hulk on an open-world was nearly unparalelled at the time - I believe it's the same feeling people got when they played Spider-Man 2 on the PS2 for the first time. You have TONS of moves on this game, and by the end of the game you have Hulkbusters, helicopters and tanks coming after you, and it's oh-so-satisfying to destroy all these things. Even just jumping around the city was fun to me. It's by the same developer of Prototype, and it sure as hell shows - when I played that game years later, the similarities in the controls and moves to Ultimate Destruction were absurd. There's also a decent plot, but who cares? It's all about smashing crap.

 

#42: Follow that treasure chest! (pretty shitty hint, but I can't think of anything else)
