Most Wanted Games

Intro

Since the implementation of the set request feature we have seen over 26,000 set requests made, almost 11,000 of which have been fulfilled. Check out what the most wanted games on RetroAchievements are.

DevQuest News

In an effort to help developers accomplish DevQuest 007 we have decided to pick a random console each month and list its most wanted games increasing the amount of games available to complete the quest. For this month the most wanted NES games will be featured. These games will only be eligible for DevQuest 007 until the next issue of RANews is released.

How to Request

Just enter the game’s page and click on “Request Set”. You don’t have an unlimited amount of requests, though.

You start with none, then you get one when you reach 2.5k points, then you get a new one each 5k points (until 20k). Then you get a new one each 10k points (until a maximum of 20 requests, which happens at 180k points). Then you have a new one each 20k points indefinitely.

You also get the right to make one more request for each year you are a member of RetroAchievements.org.

Now, Let’s check which missing sets the community wants most!
