I just started collecting GBA game and I'm really into hacked cartridges. Does anyone know where I could buy these? Not really sure if that's what a romhack is xD

Do you mean like, flash carts like an ez flash? They run roms off an sd and play them on the GBA. Or, are you talking about those rom hacks that are put onto bootleg cartridges from china?
A romhack would refer to a game(rom) that has been modified in some way and can be found in various places. You can play romhacks on a real GBA using a flashcart like the EZ-Flash IV for example.
If you're looking to get an ez flash, I recommend the EZ Flash IV. It's still in production and it's only like $40-$60. I don't think the GBATemp rules let me link to shops, but a quick google search of "buy ez flash iv" should turn up retailers.

I just found out that the EU version is better in literally every way, better sound quality, better lighting, and there's even a patch someone made to make the text look nicer

Do I restart now using what i've learned on the EU version since it's a better overall experience? or do I continue with the US version since that is what ive been using, and if someone decides to play my hack, it would most likely be that version?

@TwoSpikedHands, I'll preface this with the fact that I know nothing about the game, but, I think it depends on what your goals are. Are you trying to make a definitive version of the game? You may want to refocus your efforts on the EU version then. Or, are you trying to make a better US version? In which case, the only way to make a better US version is to keep on plugging away at that one

I'm not familiar with the technicalities of the differences between the two versions, but I'm wondering if at least some of those differences are things that you could port over to the US version in your patch without having to include copyrighted assets from the EU version
