GreenKnight127 09/22/18 4:43:13 PM #3:	Here's some that instantly come to mind: Contra: Shattered Soldier for the PS2 Strider for PS1 and Strider HD for PS3 Hard Corps: Uprising Metroid Samus Returns Pretty much every Castlevania for the DS Megaman Zero for gameboy advance and DS. Conjunctivious in Dead Cells It's not really a platformer....but Einhander for PS1 will always have a special place in my heart. And I know I'm forgetting countless others. --- ~Gamefaqs logic: Q: If it's so obviously a troll topic...why are you responding to it?

captpackrat 09/26/18 4:28:48 PM #11:	First boss fight I ever really had trouble with was Apollo in Final Fantasy Legend 2. He sits there and taunts you for 6 turns while you wail on him, then he transforms and alternates between Flare and Masmune attacks. He has 25,000 HP and is protected with Aegis so he's immune to all magic. I finally figured out the key is to ~~have everyone use SpeedUp (AGL+10) every turn until Apollo transforms then use CatClaw daggers (AGLx13 damage) and you can do 10,000+ damage each turn.~~ <cite>captpackrat posted [p:909496075] in What would...

Sahuagin 09/26/18 10:27:39 PM #13:	good question Mega Man X bosses for sure. some of them more than others, and it depends if you use something they're weak against, but a lot of them can be pretty intense if you use just the mega buster. Contra 3, especially Level 3 and Level 4 (maybe these aren't "platformer"s though?) Yoshi's Island maybe, particularly the last boss --- *The truth basks in scrutiny.* https://imgur.com/GMouTGs http://projecteuler.net/profile/Sahuagin.png <cite>Sahuagin posted [p:909516195] in What would...

Dikitain 09/27/18 2:42:03 PM #16:	Quick Man from Megaman 2 is pretty crazy to fight.

HagenEx 09/27/18 3:04:54 PM #17:	Conjunctivious from Dead Cells isn't really hard, he's just hard to hit with everything, he moves around a lot. Turrets are pretty useless except against tentacles.
