What are RetroAchievements?

Updates: DreamCast and PS2 gained achievement support since this video's release!
More dedicated emulators have also brought RetroAchievements outside the contraints of RetroArch: These include PSP with PPSSPP, PS2 with PCSX2 and Aethersx2, PS1 with DuckStation, DS with MelonDS, and GBA with PizzaBoy GBA.
Dolphin support is currently in development, which will bring GameCube to the list of systems, which only paves the way for Wii as well. More on that in the future!
I'll try to keep this up to date if any new standalones become available or if new major systems gain support. Also ignore the Twitch link at the end, I no longer stream for privacy reasons.

Finally, I've managed to make a video about something I've been super eager to talk about for the longest time. It almost feels like no one talks about this whenever they bring up retro gaming. Like sure, replaying old games is one of the most fun ways to relive childhood memories, but without incentive it's almost meaningless at times.

Opinions aside, it's something I've been meaning to make a video on for about a year now, so hopefully you guys take an interest too! I'm sure many of you probably already knew about it, but I also feel like not everyone really KNOWS about it, y'know?

Quick mistakes I noticed postediting: I believe I called one of the sites Cheevo Tracker instead of Cheevo Hunter, and I mentioned info being on the bottom left then having it appear on the top left (that's cause there was a recent update that changed that and I just added in the footage last minute)

To make things even more fun, guess what my top 3 favorite games are based on the footage I used, and also count how many times I said the word "achievement" (plural counts too)

Anyway, hope you all enjoy and have a happy holiday!

Here's an extra gift for those who want to use the NSO styled bezels I made for RetroArch:
