My favorite streamer, Mike Matei of AVGN fame, actually does self-imposed challenges of which he actually pulls off doing them.
Among them are:
NES
Beating Batman without dying once
Beating Battletoads without using warps or continues
Beating Bucky O'Hare on Hard mode (mode that can be unlocked with a password where it is one-hit deaths)
Beating Contra without dying and using the standard weapon (pea shooter) only
Beating Castlevania one time with whip only and one time without dying
Beating Ducktales without dying on Difficult and getting the Good Ending
Getting as far as possible in Ghosts'n Goblins using the torch weapon only (i.e. the point where you have to use the shield weapon to progress through the game)
Beating Mega Man with buster only
Beating Ninja Gaiden without dying and using no sub-weapons
Beating Ninja Gaiden 3 without dying
Beating Super C without dying
Beating Super Mario Bros. without dying and using no warps
Beating Super Mario Bros. 2 with Mario only
Beating Super Mario Bros. 3 without dying and using no warps
Beating Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles by using Raphael only and using no sub-weapons
Getting as far as possible in The Legend Of Zelda with three hearts only and using no sword (i.e. up to the final fight with Ganon who can only be beaten with a sword weapon)
Beating Zelda II: The Adventure Of Link with the level 1 sword only
I was just about to post about Mike's Zelda 1 accomplishments. I didn't know about a lot of the ones you listed. Wow... He's really good.
