Romhack Thursday: Hyper Metroid Super
Why do people play romhacks in the first place? I'm setting aside joke hacks (most aren't that funny), and hacks that seek to make something completely different from the original. I'm talking about the normal style of hack, the type that tries to deliver more of the original

Romhack Thursday: About Parallel Launcher
This week's find isn't a romhack specifically, but a way of playing them, both in patching and running them in an emulator, in a fairly automated way, at least if the hack you seek to play is for an N64 game, and especially if that game is Super Mario 64. It's Paralle

Romhack Thursday: Mario Adventure 2
Another romhack! There's lots of hacks and it's not always easy to find one I consider notable enough to present. This week's definitely has technical skill on its side.

Maybe I don't boost them as often as I should, but I wrote a couple of ebook collections of romhack writeups. (first - second)
