I lost interest after I beat Kanga and Roo.

Maybe the game gets extremely harder later on but from what I played it isn't that bad. Too hard for kids, yes, but I don't see how it became so popular due to its difficulty.

Either way I'm never playing this game ever again so I'm just going to assume that I could easily beat it given enough time.

The first 4 are definitely pretty easy, with Kanga & Roo possibly being the easiest of the 4.  I feel that my countless hours of playing little league baseball for NES is really helping me here.

Well then I'm glad I quit where I did.

oh you can upgrade pooh's stats, that makes this MUCH more reasonable

wow that makes things a ton better, a think i enjoyed the challenge of no stats more though

Yeah, I'm guessing people are finding it to be too hard because they don't know you can upgrade your stats.

Even if you lose they still give you points to upgrade so with enough time anyone should be able to beat it.
