    This is what I really enjoy about RA. When I started going through games on it, it made me change how I played the Mega Man games. Absolutely worth it. I need to get back to playing some more retro games again.

    I love these obscure RA entries. I also love that all the Yugioh games are straightforward.

    Played Earthbound at least six times and didn’t know this.

    I never thought about using RA for experiencing games differently (I’ve never been much of an acheivment guy in general), however I think I will start using RA now.

      What is RA in this context? Online search isn’t being very productive.

      Nah. Retro achievements is a free site that you can sign into with any modern emulator and it tracks your progress and gives you achievements just like Xbox or something. Here, I’m running it on my pi Gameboy using retropie.
