0. Platform list is in order of release.
1a. Emulation is not counted*, nor are ROM hacks (too many and too disorganized to list), and all titles listed are on original hardware.
*Exceptions where noted (very few).
1b. Reproduction, translation, modification, and homebrew carts
do apply.
2. Duplicates (multi-platform titles that are not remakes or otherwise alternate versions) are marked as Null, pointing to one primary platform.
3. All difficulties are not a requirement of "completion". For example, beating DooM on Nightmare, or FTL on Hard, would be considered "mastery". Decided case-by-case.
4. Achievements are not factored into completion, but
can be factored into mastery, as achievements themselves are often outside a game's usual scope.
Typically,

+ 100% =
5. Titles that
can't be finished for one reason or another*, or that I have zero interest in touching** (yet still keep for whatever reason) will be marked as Null.
*Untranslated JRPGs for example.
**Very few. Typically sports.
6. Formerly owned titles will be marked as such, and will not be removed. If the title was never played, it will also be marked as Null.
7. My requirement for a β

rating is simple: If I can't think of a noteworthy criticism other than "too easy". (Unless it's too easy to the point of not being engaging at all.) You can always make your own challenge.
8. When I started I didn't know about the scoring until my library was already added, hence 2015's score of -300 (decreasing as titles are shoved off the list).

The Retrode sounds pretty neat though, that's something I'm gonna have to look into. If it can do full GBA support in the future(or maybe it already does because that video was 2019) especially, I'm sold.
Back to the PS3 though, I mean, it was really inevitable. I had already been thinking about getting a PS3 for its backwards compatibility(on top of, you know, PS3 games) and I knew that that meant I was going to be going through all my PS1 and PS2 games again. Look on the bright side, I can still play PS1 games and watch DVDs(I guess) on the PS2.
