In addition to the below, I also just got my best score ever in Digidrive for the GBA -- just over 99,000! I love this game...
Xbox 360

Dead or Alive 5 Ultimate - I beat Story mode in this game, and saw the end credits. I like the DoA series quite a bit, and this game is no exception! I don't know if it quite matches up to the second or fourth games, but without Itagaki, I wasn't expecting it to be quite as good. The graphical overhaul works better than I thought it would, and the game is still great fun to play. I do wish that the box warned you about the now almost 1GB of required downloads, but other than that, and the annoying "connect to the internet!" stuff that's all over (no, I should NOT have to be online just to play a single player game and look at the high score table at the end!), this is good.

Quest for the Rings - Yes, I have beaten it, first like a month ago.
For other 2nd gen games, it's hard to decide which actually count as "beatable". I mean, I've finished Haunted House and Adventure on the 2600, but those games are like five minutes long, is it even worth mentioning? And most other games are endless. For instance, what about Speedway on the O2? It's a two minute game, and you play for seeing how far you can get. So, I've "beaten" it, but you finish the game every time you play, unless you turn it off before two minutes elapse. The same goes for Helicopter Rescue. Does that really count as "winning"?

Picross DS - beat all included puzzles, and also all puzzles I could download and fit on the system (can't get the other sets, now that Nintendo has shut down WFC... :( ) Yes, I've been very addicted to picross, 2d and 3d, for a while now. :)

Eduardo the Samurai Toaster - For some reason this wasn't listed yet, and I did finish the game again recently, so it's on the list now! It's a decent game, and it was very cool to see almost all of our names in the thanks section in the credits. DJ wasn't there, of course, but most of the rest of the TC regulars from the time (me, Weltall, etoven, dmiller, lazy...) were. Good stuff. :)
