[@mattb6522]

In regards to DKC: Kremling's Revenge, there is actually another rom hack as an addendum to it called DKC: Kremling's Revenge Remodel. It actually tones down the extreme difficulty of the later levels to be more on par with the original DKC challenge-wise (along with a few other changes).

[@UltimateGamerCC]

ty for that, i dont want to deal with Kaizo level bullshit in a rom hack, it's something that irks me greatly, too many devs want to turn the difficulty over 9000 and really just get downright sadistic about it. not like i dont enjoy a challenge, what i dont enjoy is ripping my hair off my head in frustration like i'm Mick Foley. lol

[@mattb6522]

@@UltimateGamerCC No problem! I completely agree. I know some people like Kaizo, but I'm not a fan of it either. I like a fair and reasonable challenge without being stupidly crazy as I want to enjoy a game without getting too frustrated. I always appreciate when rom hackers match the difficulty of the vanilla game and don't add in complete pixel-perfect BS.

[@UltimateGamerCC]

@@mattb6522 precisely, not every game has to be in the same vein as Dark Souls, games can be fun without being overly hard.

[@R1SKbreaker]

@@UltimateGamerCC I feel like there are plenty of retro games that are way harder and unfair than Dark Souls. Dark Souls is not remotely close to what can be considered kaizo hard.

[@UltimateGamerCC]

@@R1SKbreaker right, but who's to say that many rom hack devs really understand the comparison? people just seem to turn the difficulty as high as they can and if they can beat it then it's ready for the public.

[@NowUndefined]

The Goof Troop one is the one I'm most excited to check out, thanks!

[@andrueblaque]

Gemfire was my FAVORITE game as a kid, and I've replayed it several times as an adult. I can't believe there's a rom hack for it. I guess for me, and mostly me only, it's an essential experience I must try. I wrote fan fiction for the Gemfire universe when I was like 8.

[@The_SOB_II]

If I wrote Gemfire fanfiction, I'd probably ship the Wyvern with the Pastha

[@yaburu]

Yeah I played the absolute crap out of that game in my teen years, very excited to hear there's some love being shown to it!

[@ryanscuderi5488]

Color me shocked to hear about a Gemfire romhack of all things too. One day we'll get a Remaster...

[@fastbreak333]

A rom hack of Goof Troop? What a time to be alive!

[@UltimateGamerCC]

yes indeed, we're seeing good things even today.

[@brandnewman9870]

Wow, the Mario Keytastrophe background and general art direction, while similars to the original, make it totally look like a legit game from the 90s!

[@blackenedwritings]

Some really interesting ones here. New Super Mario Land might be my favorite of the bunch since the original was one of the first games I ever owned.

[@sebastianmalmsteen]

Your romhack videos are among my favorites from your channel, please make more romhack/homebrew/translation videos! Greetings from Chile!

[@wickedfierce]

Gemfire is one of my favorite games of all time on SNES. I probably rented and paid late charges on it enough to buy ten of them. Glad to see it getting some love.

[@ReflexVE]

Same here, used to play all night with a friend. Economy was easy to break, but otherwise solid.

[@theuglykwan]

I loved it too. I played 2 player with my friend after school! We did homework while it was the other person's turn to maximize time.

[@Seegtease]

I too will always advocate for Goof Troop as one of the best co-op games on the SNES. I'll definitely have to try that hack.

[@UltimateGamerCC]

yup, i'm very happy that there is more Goof Troop to enjoy, and it catches the essence of what made Goof Troop good, rather than just spike the difficulty up to the stars.

[@DaedalosC9]

Damn, i wasn't expecting a romhack for Goof Troop with more content/puzzles

[@MB-gl2bl]

Love when I can see the labor of love some people take on in their free time, especially when it just adds replay value and new adventures of sorts for some of the best games/series. Thank you! I appreciate these videos.

[@CGJUGO80]

Yes! One of my favorite series of yours! We love you SNESdrunk!

[@Lugosi2006]

So happy about the Gemfire hack. One of my favorites.

[@hemangchauhan2864]

Love this series so much Creativity of modders never ceases to amaze

[@projectmayhem6898]

I just beat Zelda 2 Amida's Curse yesterday, a great hack of the NES Zelda 2. The modder did an amazing job.

[@hemangchauhan2864]

[@mae2759]

@@projectmayhem6898 I really like Zelda 2 Shadow of Night. Very challenging!!

[@projectmayhem6898]

@@mae2759 It sounds very challenging, thanks!

[@LanEXHikari]

Gemfire? Now that's a pleasant surprise, I miss Koei's golden era. Thanks for the video as always, SDrunk! 👍🏼

[@Lugosi2006]

One of alltime favorite. Gemfire was fantastic.

[@renanbaggio]

It's always nice to see some Goof Troop love! This hack looks pretty fun, thanks for sharing

[@ScarletMagus]

Had this running in the background until I heard "Gemfire," one of those games I love more than it maybe deserves but will defend it to death all the same. Definitely checking that one out, thanks for the video!

[@theuglykwan]

I still listen to the music sometimes. It's very calming.

[@alejandromedrano6366]

I fricking love this series of videos, thanks to you I came across my favorite romhack ever for one of my favorite games, Final Fantasy IV Ultima, damn it is so good it feels illegal

[@obthree2830]

Dude I had Goof Troop growing up with my snes and I played it to DEATH! I absolutely loved it as a kid because it was challenging but rewarding! You felt an accomplishment when you completing puzzles and beating bosses! Awesome that your showing a hack for such a 💎!

[@gwgux]

And the list keeps growing! There's no shortage of creativity there!

[@Maxemuplounge]

The Super Boss Collection Mario hack is an awesome pick up and play! I streamed it this past weekend it's amazing seeing all the bosses going up against Mario

[@UltimateGamerCC]

what i like about it most is that not all the bosses are from Mario games, i'm hoping that there's an eventual sequel with even more bosses to tackle.

[@Maxemuplounge]

@@UltimateGamerCC right??!! I hope for a sequel as well would love to tackle more bosses

[@atomicradiotheater]

My friend, I always appreciate your ROM hack videos. Although I never play ROM hacks, I appreciate the attention and creativity that goes into their production. Your channel is a beam of sunlight, thank you.

[@The_SOB_II]

Oh my gosh I can't believe there's a gemfire hack out there. I spent so much time in that game as a kid. Love the music

[@KnownAsKenji]

Nice to see Gemfire get some love. I hope the rebalancing turns the difficulty up, one of the game's biggest flaws is it's just too easy, enemy nations build very slowly compared to a decent player, and are very passive unless they have a clear numbers advantage which generally never happens because they build slowly.

[@hitori_wc]

Goof troop is one of my favorite games of all time, i played with my cousins ever since we we're little kids, i'm glad there's a new romhack for it. Thanks for sharing!

[@Shinmsl]

I always love these videos because it guides us who aren't that versed in the rom hacking community (and can be overwhelmed by going through all the minutiae of the type of hacks,etc.) but would love to appreciate the content on our dear Snes. Now that you mentioned a cool homebrews video would be amazing too! Cheers

[@Marzimus]

Homebrew brings the love of people like you and me to the stage. Props to the creators for taking the time to share their love of classics... 🏛️

[@arrestedeffort]

I cannot express how excited I am that you included JUMP 1/2 in this list! It really straddles the line between a Standard Expert hack and a Kaizo Lite hack perfectly. That being said, I'd be even more excited to see an actual Kaizo hack or two included in future lists (as long as they're not too brutal, as that might scare some people away).

[@exodous02]

These are my favorite videos of your's!

[@zekossss]

Brilliant series, please keep it coming. Translations, romhacks, improvements, I love those kind of stuff.

[@ekstrajohn]

Oh boy... The Super Mario World rom hacking scene is huge. There are 1000s of roms out there, you guys just cant imagine. Its huge.

[@UltimateGamerCC]

oh i know, it's downright insane how much love Mario gets. tbh i like it more when other games get modded/hacked these days, Mario shouldnt be hogging all the limelight.

[@thenostalgiafactor5023]

Total length of video: 480 secs. Total length of "SNES Drunk": 5.5 secs. 1.15% of the video was spent listening to "SNES Drunk".

[@retrotvsapila8885]

hey, i was ready to eat my midday lunch, while wathching a retro game video on yt as always when i am alone, and while i havent something in my mind although i was hungry, with tha plate in front of me, a new snes drunk video appeared, 8 minutes, exactly the time i want to eat . now thats a magic moment.

[@Grogeous_Maximus]

Would sell soul for more romhack videos. These are simply fantastic

[@Pridetoons]

Every morning with SNESdrunk is a good morning! 😊

[@Bobbin4Brownies]

Some of my favorite romhacks recently are the improvement patches for Castlevania on GBA and DS. Dawn of Sorrow in particular was an awesome game buried under a lame art style and touch screen gimmicks that nearly ruined it for me. Both fixed now, thanks modders!

[@thecunninlynguist]

that super boss looks fun...these mario ones look interesting...especially Jump 1.5

[@SmegulonPrime]

Mario bosses are dull af

[@thecunninlynguist]

@@SmegulonPrime are you talking about rom hack or mario bosses themselves?

[@SmegulonPrime]

@@thecunninlynguist mario bosses in general, is this a collection of rom hack mario bosses? If so, my bad

[@thecunninlynguist]

@@SmegulonPrime didn't watch the vid? Super bosses is a rom hack that has mario fighting different bosses like king k rool, mega man robot masters, etc.

[@SmegulonPrime]

@@thecunninlynguist I wasn't really paying attention tbh, last Mario game I played was Mario World in 1990

[@clintonfox3808]

Amazing video like usual. Thanks so much for the great content all this time. From New game Plus productions

[@DRUNKASSGAMING]

Yes awesome video, love rom hacks! Great content

[@mattb6522]

Great video! I've heard of a few of these rom hacks! The rom hacking community is amazing! I actually didn't know Rockman 7 EP was a completely different game from the original Rockman 7. I thought it was only a slight modification of Rockman 7 with a few quality of life improvements. I'm definitely checking it out along with some of the others. That is impressive! It is also amazing that we have what is essentially "DLC" for many of these classic games!

[@bigbeeftomatoes]

These romhack videos are the best. Thank you, buddy

[@chanceneck8072]

Yes, SMW has a ton of awesome rom hacks. A Plumber For All Seasons by White Yoshi Egg was a particularly well made one I remember. I love to watch a lot of these being played by BarbarousKing, my favorite streamer of all time....

[@TheSmokeyDawn]

I fucking love that you end with, "And I hope you have a great rest of your day," for each video. You too man.

[@codydfwn]

It's so cool that we're finally getting DKC romhacks! One type of Romhack I'd really start to see popularized are some Ristar ones... I saw some level editor? Don't know if that'd help. Ristar and Pulseman... But I can see Ristar coming sooner for some reason.

[@yozarian86]

I just started these videos and thought part 3 would be all. Great finding part 4 and especially 5, and especially without having to wait 5 years lol

[@DaveVoyles]

These are my favorite episodes

[@ScottPillgram20]

Super Boss Collection reminds me a lot of an old flash game I used to play with the same concept as well as the custom bosses from Brutal Mario World. Will definitely have to give it a try

[@STANI420]

Do romhacks lists more often 🙏 love em

[@manuginobilisbaldspot424]

That New Super Mario Land game looks BONKERS in the best way possible. Definitely going to be playing that one..."any way" I can.

[@danielbueno8474]

Wow, Goof Troop ST Space Treasure is exactly the romhack I've been wanting someone to make for years now!

[@Chimpy1]

Good troop! I have so many fond memories of that game. I use to play it all the time with my little bro.

[@octonocular]

So happy you made a 5th one, I love these.

[@motbus3]

thanks again for the nice video!

[@WhiteHat94]

As a speedrunner, the disdain in how you said "pixel perfect" made me chuckle

[@UltimateGamerCC]

i too dislike when hacks get THAT hard, i just want more of the games that i love, not to be punished for loving them.

[@retroman--]

0:34 Gemfire! Love that game. Just wish there were better mods for it.

[@UltimateGamerCC]

the fact that we have ONE now is pretty amazing, but maybe that will open the floodgates as it were and we'll see more of them, like we're starting to see Banjo-Kazooie mods in a sea of Mario 64 mods.

[@HPPrintervx4p5q]

With your videos you can never tell from the video itself whether it's new or from 2015. That's truly a thing maybe

[@richardcochrun3869]

Lol Kaizo must have hurt you bad. You drop a sleight against it every one of these rom hack collections. Thanks for the videos 👍🏻

[@SparkTFS]

Really interesting stuff. The Mega Man and Mario ones specially got my attention!

[@curiositykills913]

I'm playing Rockman 7 EP and it's so awesome! Everything in this hack is very creative. Every fan of Rockman 7 will love this almost new game! I've always wanted more from retro gaming. A friend once said when we're playing SNES: "man, they should never stop making games like this." So, the rom hackers and improvers are really giving what we always wanted. These guys are the actual heroes of these games!

[@lactoseintolerart]

Thanks for shedding light to normal SNES enthusiasts who don't have the time to dive deeply into the ROM hacking community, and to have to dig for days to find good stuff like this!

@@UltimateGamerCC i mostly long for even more intricate and intelligent puzzles, but even more so i would want more challenging bosses. the vanilla bosses were a joke.

@@spacecomplex7180 yeah but you gotta realize that the game was aimed for kids who watch/watched Goof Troop, not adults or even teens, so that's why the game isnt very hard to begin with.

@@UltimateGamerCC why not satisfy both the targeted audience/kids and the hard gamers, by including a hard mode / new game +? ;) i mean i like the game a lot, and i did when i was young and that game was new, so i'm just thinking the game could grow adult like the people who played it back then (like me). generally of course you've got a point. i mean, since it's a hack, this is also an opportunity.
