The Hardest Nintendo Game to 100% Complete
Nintendo games have been delighting players for decades with their lovable characters, engaging gameplay, and stunning graphics. However, for some titles, completing everything can be a daunting task, to say the least. In this article, we’ll be exploring the hardest Nintendo games to 100% complete, so let’s get started!
What’s the Hardest Nintendo Game to 100%?
Super Mario World
At the top of the list is none other than Super Mario World (SNES) with its sheer amount of content, collecting all power-ups, defeating all Yoshi’s Island characters, finding all secret areas, and completing all goals. Add to that its notoriously frustrating levels, including the likes of Funky Wonderland and Bowser’s Dark Land, you’ll need both skill and patience to tackle this adventure.
Donkey Kong Country Returns
Placing second on our list is Donkey Kong Country Returns, a demanding platformer from Retro Studios. The 2.5D exploration, multiple paths, hidden collectibles, and intricate level designs make this a challenging completion. Not to mention King K. Rool’s penchant for ruining your progress! With careful planning and pixel-perfect jumping, players can persevere and secure the finish.
Punch-Out!! ( NES Classic)
Another tough contender from the 1980s is Punch-Out!! A boxing legend, yes, but achieving 100% completion through its numerous modes, bouts, and customization options necessitates precision punching, cunning strategy, and a well-timed throw. Good luck beating that pesky Mr. Sandman!
Pokémon Platinum
The second generation of Pokémon may look quaint in comparison to recent titles, but Pokémon Platinum demands significant dedication due to its abundance of exclusive content, unique evolutions, and sheer number of Pokémon. Navigating the massive Pokémon League Battle is one thing; finding event-exclusive` Pokémon, breeding the `perfect’ starters, or completing the infamous Cipher research task is the real test. Are you ready for Team Galaxy‘s challenge?!
Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild (Wii U and Switch)
Lastly, we’ll be looking at Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild. Don’t be lulled by its beautiful Hyrule plains; completing all Stables, Shrines`, and quests needs a robust understanding of traversal, mechanics, and… patience!
