That's not a complete list, as the developers mentioned they're "still learning what new games work as users test games and report their findings, so this list will get bigger as we receive new reports". The release notes for RPCN 1.3 mention various other fixes too.
Nice to see more features of games saved from oblivion thanks to emulation and open source projects.
