Port Overdosed
Some games are ported. A few get to the point where they can be played on virtually anything with a screen. No matter what system you own, it probably has a version of these games on it. This page lists those games which have reached an absurd level of ubiquity in the video game industry, to the point where a platform's library feels incomplete without it.
All of the following games have been commercially released on at least 12 (one dozen) different platforms. The easiest way to see if a game qualifies for this page is to run it through the GameFAQs or Mobygames search engine. Also, a game's Wikipedia page will often give an exhaustive list of its ports.
