Anybody got any favorites that they want to share?

Deadpool for the NES (which is a hack of Ninja Gaiden) is insanely good.

this one


Even with Yoshi's full moveset, egg throwing, etc all added in and interacting as you'd expect, it runs perfectly on Genesis emulators (and probably on the original hardware as well, though I can't confirm). Very well executed and not an easy task.

Another honorable mention: the yearly community updates of Super Tecmo Bowl

It's still a better football game than Madden even in 2024, hands down. And you can get new rosters every year.

Kaizo Mario if you wanna experience twisted level designs.

Happy Halloween! I hope your bellies are filled with delicious candy! (your family members' too) to celebrate the occasion, i wanted to make a thread on a spooky Mario World ROMhack. I've had this idea since the beginning of October, and while the month isn't the best as Mario Wonder has...

and some more too.

Mario is Missing Done Right (SMB3 styled SMW romhack where you play as Luigi on a quest to save Mario)

Mario is Missing! Done Right - Super Mario World Hacks - SMW Central

'the (one of the most infamous Mario romhacks, known for being an odd convoluted horror story)

stick mice in my head and then beat my head in with a hammer and let them back out (one of my favorite rom hacks of all time. I am being dead fucking serious. it's an extremely well made rom hack with great level design, tons of unique gameplay gimmicks/concepts, and amazing graphics even with ripped assets from other games. Real difficult, though. )

So 2 mice walk into a bar... (A sequel to the previous romhack, bigger and better, also creative and also just as ridiculously difficult.)

🐭 So 2 Mice Walk Into a Bar... 🐭 - Super Mario World Hacks - SMW Central

Super Mario Bros CD. (An upcoming romhack that sadly won't be out until october of next year- however it's an extremely promising and unique take on Mario, giving a "what if" scenario on if Mario released on a CD expansion for the NES. Great music and aesthetics in the demo.)



the Mario Romhacking scene is kind of disappointing since a lot of recent submissions focus more on being trial-and-error Kaizo stuff than anything more casual and fun for an average player. When you find a romhack with moderate difficulty, custom graphics and ASM gimmicks, it can be a blast and some of the best gaming you've had in a minute.
