@thelostsoul does look like a poor implementation of one:)

@thelostsoul this is fantastic! Thank you for this.

This is great! Thanks for putting it together! Do you think you'll create one for other systems like Sega Genesis/Mega Drive?

thelostsoul

@obsidianspider No, at least not at the moment. The biggest problem is how time consuming it is to write the little essays and to read reviews and watch videos about the games (especially with language difficulties). I would love to do it, maybe in the future, maybe not in the scale.

@thelostsoul very cool! :)

would you mind to tell us wich software you used to do the layout on that pdf file?

thelostsoul

@meleu Ah yes off course, its the free software Scribus, a desktop publishing tool similar to the likes of InDesign and QuarkXPress. I had to learn it from scratch, just to make this happen. :D

It started out as a regular LibreOffice document and just a week later I switched over to Scribus. Evolution with screenshots from previous states:

I reread your document and it's still great a year later. Awsome work!! I take the liberty of bringing this post back in the spotlight because there is a lot of work in this document and it can be useful for those who missed it the first time.

thelostsoul

@dteam Thank you for the kind words, this means a lot to me. Initially I had plans on doing more with other systems too, but the way I did it was too much work for me and a lot has changed in my private life too. The plans are still there, just with little bit less of scope. As for this document, off course there are things I would have done differently now. But that will always be the case. And did anyone notice the starts at the last "Thank you for reading" page are clickable links to some websites?^^ So guess this makes them to Easter eggs.

Just for the fun and sake of discussion, what games did you miss on the list? Or what games does not belong to it in your own opinion? How many of you are on Raspberry Pi 3 or older?
