I beat Mario 2 the lost levels Twice in one night when I was about 14ish. The first time it froze when I saved the princess so I didnt get to see the last cut scene, that made me mad and i did it all over again.

I unlocked Gum in Sega Superstar tennis today. If you say thats easy I will buy a plane ticket to the closest airport to you take a cab to your house and destroy any game related thing you own. 3 perfect tags is not an easy task. 75000 points is not an easy task. Gum was super easy to beat though.

I ascended in Nethack.

If you know Nethack, you know what kind of an achievement that is. It's not one of skill, but of cunning and strategy. It took me over 4 years from when I discovered Nethack to when I finally beat it. Nethack is one of those games where any false step could be fatal, and there are no second chances.

Even better, every time you die, most of the items and dungeon levels are randomized. Most of the game involves figuring out what potion/wand/etc does what, collecting and enchanting the best items, and getting protection from all the various ways you can die. All the while you have to find food to eat, keep from becoming food, and stay in the good graces of your God.

It was a Neutral Gnomish Archaeologist. I still have the text from the end where it tells you everything you had and killed during the game. You can have a look at it here: http://pastebin.ca/1062330

I beat F-zero GX on Story Mode and finished all of the cups on all difficulties. I also beat a couple of the story missions on very hard and nearly all of them on hard. That's about it. I never really tried to do ridiculous things in games, I always just did the bare minimum.
