Penance in FFX. no matter how strong you are, it takes at least 120 attacks to kill him. and that's assuming you hit the damage roof with every single attack. oh and btw. he has an attack that instantly kills everyone.
For some reason I remember having a real tough time with Mizar from Jet Force Gemini. That guys was fucking hard.
The Lingering Sentiment (Terra's Armour) from Kingdom Hearts 2: Final Mix. Every sodding attack he dishes out leaves you with 1hp and no magic. Never even come close the beating him. I only got it for that battle, and put it on ebay in the end. Dieing all the time is not fun. Props to anyone that has beaten him though, must have taken an awful lot of paitience.
Ultima weapon in Final Fantasy 8, spent a good amount of time trying to get lucky on that fight and not get tempted to use "The end"
Before the concept of 'bonus bosses' began to proliferate, Final Fantasy offered some really tough Final Bosses.
Just getting to Zemus can be difficult, and once you're there, Zeromus is a real son of a ***** with that Big Bang attack. Exdeath was also a lot harder than I was expecting. His 'tree' form went down without all that much trouble, but Neo Exdeath brutalized me pretty badly, and two or three times I was just one more Almagest away from the Game Over screen.
By FFV, though, Square had begun to introduce bonus bosses like Omega, Shinryu, and the various WEAPON enemies that appear through the rest of the series, and even as early as the very next entry, FFVI, a decently-built party can usually cream the main dude with their eyes closed.
As a side rant, Exdeath doesn't get nearly enough credit as a villain. He slowly coalesced from the malice of thousands of sealed creatures into a single being of pure power. He levied such a powerful war machine that the combined military of the whole world wasn't enough to stop him, then enacted a trans-planetary cataclysm to rejoin two planets into one. He could possess people and spark huge natural disasters continents away just by willing it. Then he took over an entire dimension specifically used to house the most powerful threats to the universe, and uses that power to destroy the world- again! Even that wasn't enough for him, and the protagonists manage to stop him right before he fully manifests the power of the Void itself and subsumes the entire universe into nonexistence. Why? Just because he could.
And what do people say if you ask them about Exdeath? "He was some kind of tree-dude." *sigh*

I found Bowser for Yoshi's Island really hard (though the first time I played it, it was on the SNES). Playing through again on the GBA, I noticed he seems a great deal easier, but at the time, man, he was amazing. A serious challenge to 7-year-old me, without ever feeling unfair. It was the best feeling in the world after I beat him on the 6th or 7th try.ucciolord1 said:

Smithy from Super Mario RPG literely took me forever to beat that guy. Give me a fight againsit Omega weapon or Sephrioth other then having to fight that guy again. I think he might have been tougher to beat then the games hidden boss in my opionion.
Strelok and his magic bulletproof suit at the end of Clear Sky.
I'd totally murderised my way though the entire game on master upto that point, then he has some bullshit health bar that can only be damaged with a gun which does fuck all to anything. While those anythings are shooting at you.
