Retro Achievements is a website created by Scott Davies, a former programmer from Creator/{{Rare}} in 2012. It's a site that uses modified emulators for earning achievements. Each game has different points of achievements (originally 400 for every game, now different depending on the game) that can be earned by completing tasks each achievement has. Depending on how rare an achievement is, it may have different Retro Ratio, which can be a guideline on how difficult the game or its achievements is. There's also hardcore mode, which forbids using savestates and speed changing.
