How hard is it to code a game in C++?

I'm just wanting a rough estimation here, but I, like most of the 4chan community, have ideas for games, or movies, or what have you.

So I'm learning C++, and I'm doing pretty good with everything I've learned so far.  I'm only taking a beginning course in my college, but I'm still doing good in it.

So, if I wanted to create a platform game, or a fighting game, or even a tile game (Pokemon Clone), how hard is it?

If I already had all the graphics, all the story written out, and all the gameplay mechanics worked out, how long, and how hard would it be to create a game from scratch, using just C++?

I've already programmed games in the past and continue work on 2 (related, so I can share code between them) projects right now.

My problem is I don't use a language / devkit that I can actually make money off of.

Sooner or later I really need to make the shift over so my games don't keep getting played by like a thousand people (probably more once I have one of my bigger projects done) for free. What is the best way to capitalize off of my skills?

Btw, those of you just starting out don't charge people for your shitty beta games. Release them for free, get feedback, learn, become better, ask for donations if you like; but don't make people pay until you're good.
