	<!-- NOTE TO ALL EDITORS: PLEASE MAKE SURE THAT THE GAMES ARE SORTED ALPHABETICALLY BY NAME.

	Also, please follow these guidelines as well:
	* Use {{free}}, {{nonfree}}, {{yes}}, {{no}} or {{partial}} in the beginning of a cell, when appropiate.
	* Use {{dunno}} when you are unsure or do not know information.
	* Start each cell with a game's name with "{{rh}} \|", so the name is fixed to the left.

	Thank you.
