From video gaming to card games and stuff in between, if it's gaming you can probably discuss it here!

What's retroachievements? Basically it adds XBOX Live style achievements and global high score tables to retro emulation platforms. This added layer of social gaming and community driven accomplishment hunting really builds on the retro games emulation experience. The best part is you can get it running on pretty much any platform you emulate games on, your phone, your deck, your weird android handheld, HTPC, even your lappy-5000.

Since RA adds score and achievement tracking, those of us who game at decisively higher levels and compete for the most glorious prizes imaginable like to use it to track our games. Now is a great time to get it set up, so when the call for challengers comes to Beehaw, you can dive right in.

Here are some of the most fun achievements I have personally gotten.

Batman Returns

Castlevania 3

Arthur's Absolutely Fun Day

Felix the Cat

Anyway, this has been anarchist propaganda, toodles

RA sent me into a fever dream with Pokémon Pinball on the GBA, trying to get all of the achievements that counted for the "beaten" tick on my profile. Why did I do that? Why?
