Yellow Devil. It's called the Yellow Devil. And it is, indeed, demonic. The Shadow Devil in Mega Man X5 isn't much better (especially if you're using Zero). But the Rainbow Devil I made my bitch.

Mega Man... Any of them. I really suck at Mega Man games for some reason. But, then again, I kinda suck at a lot of other games too. :D

Ah, yeah. I think the hoverbike level is pretty much impossible to beat legit. The only way to beat the game was with the use of cheats.

They get easier from 3 on since you can just farm E tanks.

I beat Battletoads as a kid, it was one of my proudest moments ever. I also beat all the Mega Man games from 1-5. However I have a few I could never beat:
- Shadowgate. I loved this game, it had such a great atmosphere and haunting music. I got stuck to the part where the troll demands payment the second time. I think what had me stuck was the little room near the beginning with the arrow and the secret passage (to the bridge -> wraith etc.) where I just didn't figure out that I had to pull the other torch. None of my friends knew it either so I remember being hugely frustrated with being stuck in the game.
I even wrote the local Nintendo magazine (since they had a question & answer column) but I don't think my letter was ever answered. Then I just forgot about it.
- Star Tropics. The later levels were just too hard. I remember that I had a borrowed copy of the game and panicked since I didn't have the original paper slip with the submarine code. I think I got stuck on the part with the sea maze and the meteorite (?).
- Batman. I got to the Joker several times but he killed me every time.
- Legend of Zelda. It was just way too confusing with the dungeons and huge world map. I remember that this was probably one of the first games I ever played on the NES, we rented it from a video game store for the weekend. I beat the first boss (dragon) but was totally stuck after that. To this day I still haven't beaten it, I plan to do it someday.
