i remember trying one of the later Battletoads games and it just wasn't the same. yeah it was easier, but you lost out on some of the cool levels (at in the one i played).

i also remember there being a trick in the underwater stage to refill your lives (thanks nintendo power). but even with a magazine quality walkthrough i could never get past the before last stage - the one where you're on a buzzsaw that runs along the edge of the world in a giant maze stage while you get chased by another giant buzzsaw blade. the 'trick' was that you were able to take the corners 'slightly' faster than the AI, but it went slightly faster than you on the flat parts.... so yeah... you had to memorize a giant effing maze.
