Announcing TopRoms! A curated ROM collection of high quality games. This set aims to include only games that are worth playing according to the industry. A big search was done through blogs, sales numbers, multiple recommendation lists and top lists to find both well known classics and the gems that we forgot.
This is to avoid the inconvenience of having multi-GB ROM sets that have every game ever made for a given system. The majority of the games are of poor-quality and the collection is hard to explore. It’s not always practical to carry these sets on storage limited systems such as smartphones, single-board computers (such as the Raspberry PI) and portable game systems.
