List of the best Rom hacks!!!

[Eternal Myst]

Chaos Complex
Crazy stupid, parody ROM hack.
No matter what, you'll never run out of "WTF WAS THAT!?!?" moments in this "crappy" ROM hack.

Super Demo World: The Legend Continues
Uh. Maze. Ing.

You've covered just about everything else I can think of.

Thanks I will add these soon.

Ehm, how much does Shiny gold actually cover? Is it a finished project?

It covers the entire game,and could easily pass for an official "Pokemon Gold Remake",and it's a finished project.

Uh, no. Shiny Gold is up to Beta5, and is still in progress. So far it covers up to Fushia City in Kanto, and there's still a lot of bugs to be worked out. And there's quite a few changes from the original.

EDIT: Original Dev topic. Last edit was an update yesterday.

No roms here, if you're wondering.

Oh,and I thought it was done silly me

I'm not really sure what to qualify it as apart from piratey goodness, but SOMARI deserves an honorable mention here.

Sonic gameplay.
With Mario.
On the NES.

With of course about as much difficulty to last you a lifetime due to programming or just the sheer horridness of the game. I have no idea how long it lasts as I have a hell of a time getting through just Green Hill as it is.

I'm not sure if SM:ZSS is the same as Super Justin Bailey, but if not throw that on the list. Samus in an original sprite of her in a two-piece bikini. =P The game apart from that is unchanged.

Personally amazed with some of these hacks just from the looks of them. I used to be a part of a Sonic hacking community way long ago, and one of the more notable hacks was Project Shadow, basically sticking Shadow into Sonic 1 and then completely changing the levels and difficulty. Apart from those, I don't really know of anything else...

Edit: Oh yeah, not that it really counts, but there's apparently a hack for StarFox 2 that makes it seem more like a full and finished game. In English, none of the debug info, etc.

Links to hacks world be appreciated, and I'm fairly sure Justin Bailey simply did one Samus hack, which he already posted; Zero Suit Samus is apparently what Brawl noobs call it(no offense, kais, I don't even know where you found it.)

As for Shiny Gold, yes, there's development going on, but the author has other things to do, and the remake is a daunting task, so it's going fairly slowly. However, he posted a vid of a new 'minigame' being added in to the hack just a couple days ago, so we know there's something going on, anyways.

Now, for more kickass hax(maybe translations? I might add some must-play translations later, if you don't mind, or maybe branch into a separate topic) :
FF3usHT: http://www.zophar.net/hacks/files/ff3usht.rar -difficulty patch for FFVI including new spells/items/monsters.

Super Demo World: http://www.zophar.net/hacks/files/smb7.zip -The predecessor to the above SDW: The Legend continues.

A. I've never seen any roms on Zophar, except for maybe a couple links to Public Domain roms, which are legal last I checked. The only thing Zophar can be held accountable for is kicking ass, but sadly it's not updated anymore.

B.Final Fantasies IV and VI came out in English for both the GBA and the SNES(as II and III respectively) in America. However, the SNES versions had god-awful translations, were toned down in difficulty, and had some censored bits, while the GBA versions, though retranslated, had a cople small changes made that made them, in most's opinion, inferior to the SNES games. The two retranslations I put up earlier were so that people could enjoy the original games without having to put up with the marred English version(because this was before the Advance versions).
