Should the game's release platform be listed as well?

So, I am a writer who is working on a project on arcade games, and I was trying to find a list of arcade games about historical subjects. Before I have been able to find lists of games which mention the platform they were made for which has been very helpful for me, but this list does not include such information. This list does have information about the game's release year, which is helpful for many people, but there might also be people who want to find historical video games for specific platforms, such as the Amiga, NES, or in my case, arcades, and I believe that having that information in this wikipedia list would be reasonable, though it would take a lot of work to update all of the games to list all of their release platforms. This is just a thought for consideration, and more experienced wikipedia editors would know if this is a good idea so I will leave it up to others to decide if this should be updated to have platform release information.
