I don't mean the satisfaction of it being fun, I mean that it was hard and you mastered it and beat it and were very happy in doing so.
let's do it by systems: feel free to add more systems
arcade: double dragon
nes: metal gear 1
snes: super metroid/contra 3 (hard diff/1 player)
ps: ridge racer (white angel)
n64: goldeneye (all gold on hardest difficulty)
ps2: eh none (have yet to beat most games i own due to lack of time)
gc: none (have yet to beat most games i own due to lack of time)

nes: Bubble Bobble- well, technically I never beat it, but I got SO close to defeating that boss!
snes: A Link to the Past- something about seeing that Triforce wiggle around on the screen was really satisfying.
n64: Ocarina of Time, my favorite game of all time. I was just as satisfied the next 5 times as well.
ps2: Ico, easily- it's ending scene is my favorite cut scene in a game ever. I actually had tears streaming down my face the first time I beat that game.
gc: So far, Eternal Darkness (special ending). The game has such an incredible story, and to see it all tie together at the end like that- magnificent.

NES: Legend of Zelda or Super Mario Bros. 3
SNES: Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past
N64: Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time, or 1080 Snowboarding(having unlocked every special character, and recieved first place on the hardest level)
GC: I've almost finished Wind Waker, but right now I'd say Wave Race: Blue Storm (1st place in expert). Of course, Viewtiful Joe is going to be a serious contender.
GBA: Metroid Fusion
Genesis: Shining Force II
PS: Final Fantasy Tactics (Currently playing Valkyrie Profile, so you never know... I also enjoyed DQVII, but one hundred hours into it, my brother lost the memory card.)
PS2: I haven't really played anything I wanted to finish. I'll be playing Sly Cooper soon, so it may go here. We'll see.
PC: Kings Quest VI
XBox: Halo (even though the Flood sucked)

Super NES: Final Fantasy 2. For me one of the best Final Fantasy games ever, along with Final Fantasy 3. The ending was long and the final battle was awesome.
PS: Final Fantasy VIII: I had troubel with Ultimeca so one day I just decided to level up all my characters to level 100 and go and kick her ass. Also I got Squall's Ultimate Weapon and cast Aura on him so he could do is special attack on her, over and over.
N64: Shadow Man. I really liked this game.
GB: Legend of Zelda: Links Awakening
GB Color: The Legend of Zelda Oracle series. I linked both together to get the whole game.
PS2: Metal Gear Solid 2: The Sons of Liberty. Just so I could get the POS of out the way. Can't wait for The Twin Snakes.
GBA: The Golden Sun series.

snes: final fantasy 6- such a great game- and it had an amazing 20 minute ending!
chrono trigger- i took the time to replay that game so much i got all of the different endings (12 in all)
terranigma- it was one of my favorite action rpgs of all time- and it was very fun to play through the whole thing
legend of zelda: link to the past: best zelda game period (ocarana so very close)
n64: legend of zelda: ocarana of time- my favorite game on the n64 and one of the best ever- so much fun
ps1: castlevania symphony of the night- a great game- i got all 200 % of the map completed
valkyrie profile- arguably tri-ace's best rpg- it was tons of fun and pretty tough to get the best ending
ps2: suikoden 3- the game was amazing- arguably the best ps2 rpg thus far- found all 108 stars of destiny
ico- the game was great- all the puzzles were good- and the ending rocks- nuff' said
gc: metroid prime- i love metroid prime
eternal darkness- great game, great story, worth spending the time to get the best ending
thats all i can think of right now- there are probably a lot more- but those are a few

I haven't beat many games, like....at all.
But I think if I completely master F-Zero GX, it'll take the cake. That game is insane.

SNES - Ninja Turtles 4
N64 - Conker's Bad Fur Day
GCN - (will be) Viewtiful Joe, I enjoy having to continue 4 to 5 times an episode/level
PSOne - Final Fantasy VIII, my favourite ending
PS2 - Way of the Samurai
Xbox - Shenmue II

Coleco Vision-Zaxxon, 6 times through. The game would just repeat when you beat the last level, but the difficulty would be turned up
Arcade-Crime fighters. I must've spent $25 beating that game. Kind of a double dragon rip off.
NES-Mike tysons punch out and Zelda. I only beat tyson once. And zelda because i beat the first and second adventure.
Snes-FF-2 still the best Final fantasy in my book
N64-Super mario 64 all 120 stars. Dont think i ever had as much pure fun again with my N64
GC-I've barely beat any of my games. I'd have to say Timesplitters 2 because i unlocked virtually everything by getting all golds and beating the game on all difficulty levels

n64 - Ocarina of Time, nothing else even comes close, the subsiquent 10-20 odd times i finnished it after that were all just as good
GCN - Skies of Arcadia (so far) my first real RPG that ive owned (not i finnished the Chrono Trigger ROM before i finnished this, but it doesn't count because roms are bad) this had an awsome story, with characters i enjoyed playing along with (figurativly speaking) im definatly looking forward to playing this through again in a year or two.
GBA - Pokemon Ruby, only cause Mario (the forum user) egged me on constantly to finnish it, and when i did it was well worth it, the end music is awsome
Amiga 500 - Secret of Monkey Island, my first game finnished ever, done all by my self, and its one of the best games around (i cant believe your felicity)
486 - X-Wing, never fully finnished it, but i was pretty damn good at it untill i lost the list of codes needed to get past the copy protection, and then the discs, and then the computer later on
p1 233 - Monkey Island 2 LeChuck's Revenge, awsome sequel to an awsome game, this game really made me fall in love with Monkey Island, AND i finnished it before dad, i had some serious gloating todo
out of all of those though i think Yoshi's Island takes the cake, its my favorite game of all time

The first game that gave me this feeling was either R-Type (first GB game outside of Tetris), Super Mario Land (GB), Mega Man (GB) or Super Mario World (SNES). I'm not sure in which order I played them through.
Hm, now I remember: Out of all Mega Man was the most satisfying, even though I had to resort to an Action Replay to get past the first Wily stage.

Atari- MoonPatrol
NES- The Legend of Zelda/Metroid/MegaMan/Dragon Warrior
SNES-Final Fantasy III
N64-Mario 64/Goldeneye
GCN-hmm...have lots o' games, but haven't beaten many of them! (Luigi's Mansion was more a demo than a full game--though fun; I was always a fan of Ghostbusters!) Dang job gets in the way of playing games.
PC-Starcraft and Broodwar
GB-Tetris Game B level 9-5
GBA-Metroid Fusion--well it is the only one I've beaten.
I think that sums it up.
