Introduction Topic

[Noobyboobyboi1]

Hey guys, long story short. I fell down a rabbit hole and wound up here. Just curious to see if anyones' still here in 2023. btw R.I.P Jerry Springer

[ianmi]

Hi, I'm ianmi, also known as Meztli.

I live somewhere in Planet Earth (although my profile says something different) 

I Love NES-Famicom games. I still possess a Famicom console: it has a small failure but it can be repaired. It was given to me by my older brother as a Christmas gift in 1994. I still remember the good teenager times playing NES-Famicom carts at that time. For now, I'm using an emulator to play NES-Famicom games.

My favorite games are Tengen Tetris, Dr. Mario, Super Mario Bros., Super Mario Bros. 2 (Japan), Super Mario Bros. 3, Battle City, The Legend Of Zelda, Dig Dug, The Legend of Kage and many other NES-Famicom games.

I'm a mathematician, Master in Teaching for Higher Education and I have bachelor-level studies in electrical engineering. Also I'm an amateur artist: traditional and digital drawings, mostly fantasy-related, family-friendly stuff. Besides, I was an amateur music producer (now retired).

Well, that's what I want to talk about myself, for now. If you want to know more, PM me. I'm more friendly than you may think!!

Hey there! I'm Lucas, also known as Herald.

I just recently rediscovered a long lost passion for 8 and 16-bit games, as well as indies. Those childhood memories keep coming and I just can't stop them!! My favorite games are The Legend of Zelda and Chrono Trigger. Not the originalest IK, but hey, I do dig an occasional action platformer too!

Some friends introduced me to the wonderful world of RomHacking and I'm very glad for that! This seems to be a great community, so much so that I wish to be of help in the future, if I can. I wanted to make this account just to share those feelings.

Talking personal life, I'm christian and a medical student, currently at the very last year of College. Also as a married gamer, I'm very much eager to teach my kids the ol' ways of NES (as soon as I have them, I mean  ). Gotta pass on those sweet, sweet memories forward!

And I think that's it!
Do PM me if you wish to exchange some bits of wisdom.
Cheers all the way from Brazil! 

[Mangken]

Hi, I'm Mangken4 (or you may somehow know me as PuPTooN), a retro game hunter (interested with games from the 90s), and talented translator/ transcriber. I'm also a bit of a graphic designer.

Fluent with English and Japanese has been a tool for translation/transcription as I made some English friendly guides for obscure games on Gamefaqs. The major project I took on was translating the sequel for Osamu Sato's Eastern Mind, Chu Teng and I was the translator and lead designer. 

Games I grew up include Dragon Quest, Rhythm Heaven, Pokemon Gold, Cho Aniki, Earthbound.
Well, not much for private life, but I was a cosplayer and the only award I got was for Bianca from Dragon Quest V. Also I'm a print operator.

Anyway, this will be my closure of my introduction and If curious, don't be afraid to PM me.

Long time fan of the site. I've always been amazed by the huge amount of content created every month. Almost seems like there's no shortage of energy or enthusiasm.

[fronzy]

I am newbie here and just saying hello and also want to know something about rom-hacking as a newbie.

I really just want to know how to start rom hacking. I have ideas for hacks and just want to see how hard is it to hack, I doubt I can be good at hacking but don't know unless you try.

It depends on the game and what you want to change, and on which tools are available. There are hacks where one literally only has to change one byte;

Hi

[Cram-o-dev]

Hello, you can call me Cram-o-dev.

I'm a huge fan of Pokemon and several other games, and it always amazes me what fans of them can do with their rom hacks.
I'm very in-experienced with rom hacking, but I do like to mess around with a lot of the classic Pokemon games for fun, as these were my childhood favorites.

[Brian]

[Mr. Jones]

Hi, I'm Mr. Jones.

I joined to seek help on how to use a program called TexER, that I was directed to on your site.

I open the program, only for it to immediately close. I don't know what I'm doing wrong.

Any direction would be helpful.

[Azur2]

Hello everyone!

I would like to get start from here before I drive into rom hacking world 

My name is Azur and I am noob here to learn and gain knowledge about Rom hacking, and I'm also glad to join this forum.

[RunzaQyu]

Greetings everyone!

I am very passionate about video games since the 90's and I've been a fan of Soulsborne games, Metroidvania games, FPS games, Survival Horror games, Hack N' Slash games, Open-World games and many more.

I am here would like to take this opportunity to learn and explore more about ROM hacking as I have many ideas for fan-games to make such as Castlevania, Classic Megaman, Megaman X, Megaman Zero and so much more. Editing in designing and writing a script for in-game dialogues are the only thing I'm good at when it comes to this kind of projects. I'm not really sure where to start, but I just need to form a team who could able to help my projects come true.

I believe and I really hope this would be my first stepping stone towards success especially gaining more experience and knowledge about how video game works.

Nice meeting you guys and don't hesitate to PM me.

Hidey-ho there!

Just started out trying to make a rom-hack today and hopefully it'll go well. Prior to this, I've only done a few texture hacks for use on dolphin and for Spider-Man remastered.

[Morrigan Aensland-Hill]

Hey there, everybody! I'm Morrigan Aensland-Hill, and I happen to be a modder of the GoldenEye/Perfect Dark community from Scotland, but I've been performing an action to create NES/SNES/N64 rom hacks as well.

It all started when I've been contributing to Tomorrow Never Dies 64, a full conversion mod of GoldenEye. I was polite enough to proofread grammar and suggest some content I find appealing, and the project leader of TND64 decided to green light them.

Anyways, I hope you will give me a warm welcome in this humble abode. I will do my best to make some of the best mods around here.

My ten favourite games are:
1. Darkstalkers
2. GoldenEye
3. Perfect Dark
4. Fire Emblem
5. Super Robot Wars
6. Gundam
7. Banjo-Kazooie
8. Ar tonelico
9. Star Fox
10. Devil May Cry
