Games with the hardest Bonus Stages

I still have troubles getting (big points) on the Zoo Keeper bonus man stages.
 
Not sure of the hardest, but I'd say Mario Bros is the easiest for me. I'd also say Q*bert's Cubes has one of the coolest and most fast paced, if not hardest bonus rounds evar.
 
Here is a hint: try jumping.

Holy shit, really? :rolleyes::D

It gets tough trying to get big points, especially if your jump is timed wrong, and you start hitting the cages. It fucks the timing all up, and you are done (well, at least for me anyway). Some may think they are easy.

Also - I'm terrible at the coconut boards too, but I dont think those are considered bonus stages?
 
Ok so what games have the hardest bonus stages? For me it's Karate Champ, those freaking plants are harder then heck to dodge.

As soon as I saw the title of your post, the EVADE stage on Karate Champ was the first thing I thought of. The other stages are easy, the EVADE is hard. I've probably done it 5 times in my life and I own a Karate Champ!
 
Gaplus has fun bonus stages. I have been getting better at keeping those space bees bouncing so I can rack up extra points. I am not yet good enough to know what the word is for the third bonus stage. The first spells out BONUS, the second GAPLUS.
 
I'm not that good at the game, but for me the second (or is it the third?) coin stage on Mario Bros. is tricky if you miss one jump in the slightest bit...
 
Wild Western after you clear the first 2 or 3 rounds. Tapper gets the nod for easiest.

Only the first two on Tapper. The rest are sometimes nearly impossible to beat as it's too fast. I got over 500k the other night and I use the bonus rounds as breaks.

Totally, I just got a Gaplus, and they are much more difficult than Galaga!

next 2 are DOUBLE, then TRIPLE...that's as far as I can make it :D
Here's a screengrab form the DOUBLE one in MAME. I'd include the TRIPLE, but I only had 1 ship and only spelled out the T and part of the R.

WOW! How many alien ships do you capture? I can never get more than 3.

See my above post...I edited it with a MAME screengrab :) On that one, I actually captured 7 just before the bonus stage, but it'll only hold 6 (the 7th one flew off) If you have at least 5, you can just sit and shoot without even moving.

How do you catch more than 3!?!! I need to read a faq!
