Retro Achievements

AoC

As if we didn't have enough achievements for modern games now you can explore the joy of CHEEVOS unlocks in retro games as well. If that's your thing, that is.

Were you the greatest in your day at Mega Drive or SNES games? Wanna prove it? Use our modified emulators and you will be awarded achievements as you play! Your progress will be tracked so you can compete with your friends to complete all your favourite classics to 100%: we provide the emulators for your Windows-based PC, all you need are the roms!

I don't really understand the whole achievement thing. I play for fun, and if I happen to kill 3000 goombas, I happen to kill 3000 goombas, but I don't want to have to stand by a pipe for 3 hours waiting for the 3000th goomba to appear just for some silly little badge

I'm honestly in the same camp, but this interested me because I had no idea anything like it could be done.

In the current form I don't care but should they decide to add achievements to the games on any real client (like Steam) I'm all for it.

On a sidenote: Streets of Rage 2 rocks. When I played it as a kid I didn't realize Axel is supposed to be Austrian (or potentially Bavarian) and when he does his special move says Jessas na!. I always thought he say's Yes, no :D
