Best Way to Arrange a List of Games by Release Date?

I was thinking that when I have my "Year of the NES" in 2019, it would be cool to try to play through my collection of NES carts in chronological order. For instance Super Mario 1, 2, then 3. It would be like experiencing a compressed version of the NES's sales life in the 80's. I could do it manually by looking up release dates and arranging them by hand for my 30 or so carts, but does anyone have ideas for how to do it faster? This sounds like a task where I could enlist the help of a computer to save time, maybe via Microsoft Excel or something. Or better yet, some devoted fan may have already done the legwork for me. I just don't know where he or she may have put the data.
