There isn't a straightforward list of all games protected by the ESA, only a list of companies whose games are protected. Researching whether a game is ESA protected involves finding out whether a game's publisher is a member. What with mergers, takeovers and companies' back catalogues being bought up by various parties, this can turn into a frustrating paper chase.
That's the value of the Oldwarez List, it's a resource that can't be found anywhere else or replicated without lots of hard work.
