10 Video Games That Insult You For Winning

10. Super Ghouls 'N Ghosts 

Make no bones about it, Ghouls N' Ghosts (and its various iterations) are absolutely nails games. Borne of the arcade era of, "Make games hard equals more money spent to play it", it carried that ethos over to its console ports.

Super Ghouls 'N Ghosts, the upgraded and better looking entry on the SNES, carries on the arcade lineage of being bloody difficult. Poor Arthur doesn't have it easy, with shiny armour that still breaks after one hit, as well as the myriad of obstacles and enemies to overcome on his journey to rescue the princess from Sardius.

So you've made your way to his castle, and you'd be right in thinking that you've done it. But as it turns out, the only prize there is the Goddess Bracelet required to defeating Sardius.

"Right," you're thinking. "Bring him on".

Were it that easy, but no. You only have to go and repeat every level again to experience the true ending, like it was a piece of cake.

It made a lot of players nope out of it, with many never experiencing the joy of saving the princess.
