A mythical metric born from Japanese collector forums, combining soushkin (worth sending money for), bouder (to sulk, in French — games that demand stubborn attention), and era (an epoch). Only 100 games pass. Here are the highlights. combining soushkin (worth sending money for)
A true high-quality collection distinguishes itself by including the games that flew under the radar. A "soushkinboudera" archive wouldn't be complete without Eternal Darkness: Sanity’s Requiem. This psychological horror game utilized the GameCube hardware to break the fourth wall in ways games rarely do today. Also essential is F-Zero GX, a game that runs at blistering speeds and remains one of the most technically impressive racers of all time.
