Confession time: there aren't actually 101 as stated in the video. That was the target initially… before I realised my guru meditation tolerance isn't quite as high as I imagined.

I deliberately avoided most RPGs/adventures that take an eternity to load and reach the key points where you can commit hari-kari. With some games it's surprisingly long-winded and difficult to die… even if you're trying your hardest! You tend to find that with the more complex games all the death animation sequences have already been captured and uploaded to YouTube anyway.

Quite a few of the ones that made the cut (particularly the more obscure ones) I discovered via a thread started a lifetime ago by Dastardly on the English Amiga Board, so a big thanks goes out to him and all the other members who made suggestions there.
