Boss Battles as Richter in CastleVania: Symphony of the Night. Long Library: Lesser Demon

The eighth and hardest mission of X-Men: Mutant Apocalypse due to the not one but two insta-death lava sequences topped off by a randomly teleporting Apocalypse (who is also the hardest boss.) I went with Beast even though Wolverine can bypass the first lava sequence by climbing up the first hole in the ceiling, winding up in the cave area where I acquired the 3rd X for the extra life. With Beast, this section is actually skippable because there's five Xs (that I know of), and you only need 3 for an extra life. But, with the big blue furry intellectual, I never pass up an opportunity to walk on a ceiling.

The seventh mission of Mutant Apocalypse and, again, I usually use Psylocke exclusively, but for the sake of variety I picked Cyclops mainly because Cyclops is my least favorite character and I had to use him somewhere. Might as well be the short and easy level where it doesn't really matter which character you use.

Boss Battle in Metroid (NES): Mother Brain. Some fun with passwords, a tutorial, and then the conclusion to the suitless samus non-Varia playthrough, directly continuing after Ridley & Kraid. Non-varia playthroughs really aren't a big deal. A non-screw attack playthrough would be much more difficult, but I didn't think about that at the time. The non-varia playthrough came about because it was out of the way and I didn't feel like trekking all the way through Brinstar to get it, but I ended up doing it anyway to show I voluntarily passed it up. Password used to get Samus sans-spacesuit: 000000-000020 000000-000020
