I agree. I think game publishers should do some of the following:

1> Have a trainer mode option built in for those of us who just can't
win any other way.

2> Have a kiddie level (incredibly hard) and an old folks level of 
playability choice. Kiddie level would be for those Nintendroids that
want hard challenges,and OF mode would be for those less dexterious
players who enjoy games but aren't that great at them.

[I think having the cheat mode in Shadow of The Beast 2 is a step in the
right direction]
