A list 25 top that doesn't have Battletoads, Devil May Cry or Ikaruga. Furthermore, lists Simpsons and Time Crisis as hard. They both together doesn't beat "Prehistoric Isle in 1930".

It lists harder similar games, and tries not to take too many games with the same gameplay style, which I think is acceptable for an opinion piece like this.

Mushihimesama is harder than Ikaruga. Ninja Gaiden II is harder than Devil May Cry. Battletoads would probably have been a good pick, probably replacing Ghosts and Goblins.

I'd have chosen Boshy, Kamilia or Wings of Vi over IWBTG, but IWBTG is more recognizable.
