Out of the handful of games I own, probably Advance Wars: DoR. Been looking to pick up Shiren the Wanderer, however...

I have to say the hardest game (for me) is New International Track & Field. I know some people just breeze through that game but this button-mashing, screen-scratching game is just too hard for me. I feel like I need an extra set of hands to play this game.
On the plus side, I can proudly say that I finished Contra 4... on normal difficulty. :)

Lunar: Dragon Song, just because it's so difficult to not give up from the game being so bad.

Good thing I've already ordered my copy, as I'm not in the eligible region. Next time make it world-wide please.
Good luck to the N-Americans :)

Maybe I suck, but I had trouble fighting through several of the early dungeons on Final Fantasy III. I also haven't made it past the 8th floor of Shiren the Wanderer, and I'm terrible at Cooking Mama (curse you, apple pie! CURSE YOU~!!).

I had a lot of trouble with Elite Beat Agents, but that's because I'm rhythm impaired =(

Advance Wars DoR got a little too difficult for me, so I put it down months ago. I wish I didn't feel the need to, since I was really enjoying it, but I don't have enough time to replay long battles until I get it right.

New York Times Crossword and Contra 4. I couldn't get 1 answer in the crossword and I couldn't beat the first boss in Contra 4 my first few times playing it (on easy mode).

The first Advanced Wars for the DS. My strategy of having no strategy failed me after the missions actually got complicated.

I was gonna say Contra 4 but many others have said that already so I'll mention Ultimate Mortal Kombat 3. The frustratingly psychic computer AI has prevented me from winning even at the lowest difficulty level.

I gave up on Trauma Center after about a dozen or so levels, just got to be too much, too fast.
