Field notes
The catalog groups physical editions across a wide platform range, from Windows and PlayStation 2 to DOS, arcade, NES, and Nintendo Switch. Its decade index records 40 games from the 1970s, 723 from the 1980s, and more than 1,800 each from the 1990s and 2000s. The site also separates sealed and complete-in-box copies and provides guides on PAL versus NTSC, reproduction cartridges, and ageing battery saves.
