Frequently asked questions
What are the best Shooter games?
RomWize's ranking of the best Shooter games is based on a dual score — the original-era rating and a 2026 re-evaluation — to highlight the titles that still stand out today.

For every Shooter game, we track a rarity index and a collector value (loose, complete and new) by region. The 'rarest' section highlights the hardest titles to find.
