Please. I'm working on a site of ROM Hacking reviews, articles, humor etc., and want to see some "good" examples of terrible, terrible hacks. Poor pokemon themed graphic hacks, Babblefish-esque translations, you name it. Bonus points if the hack's for SMB1! Even more bonus points if the hacker's name involves a character from an Anime! But deliberately bad hacks (like, say, the Super Mario World Minus hack) don't count, because that's cheating.

So yeah, kindly educate me in the ways of Shite.

One step ahead of you on that one. Ditto for Wario World.

Download a random hack from Zophar

Seriously, I wonder if anyone actually checks through the hacks before putting them up.

There is a megaman hack called Crapman, but it's a satirical hack done on purpose. Althought, check Mew2's SMW hack on Acmlm rom hacking domain. (Mew2 is Bouche's old name xD)

I'm certain one time ZD uploaded a hack of SMB with--I kid you not--boxes drawn around all the sprites.

I'd go look for it, but...I don't feel much like going there. All those old, abandoned mutant hacks give me the creeps.

[EDIT]
Okay, maybe not. But everything submitted by "John Deering" (all within one or two weeks, IIRC) is equally hazardous to your health, if not moreso. Crap doesn't get any crappier than this. Avoid!

Haha, it's like Zophar.net is where ROM hacks go to die.

Ah, yes. But I'm looking for the creme-de-la-crap. The type that makes your eyes roll back in your head and go "Shitting hell this is bad", but you keep playing just to see how much worse it gets.

Bad fan translations to english are also interesting.

Was gonna say SMW Minus but then I saw intentionally bad hacks don't count.

I'll say Chris's first SMW hack was pretty bad, although he has improved a lot.

I know another one but I want to spare his feelings...

DWOry - WORST. HACK. EVER. (Made by orynider.)
It is a mix of total glitchiness, crapified Demo World levels, SMW levels which aren't changed at all and some weird, partially glitched exgfx levels with crappy palettes.

These are screenshot portions taken by me, which I used to bash the inventor of this shit back then:





Please tell me when you downloaded it so I can kick this junk off my MMOG server again. (The former download location is showing 404 by now)

Sadly, I don't think the patch exists anymore, so good luck if you can find it =/

Err... forget about DWOry or Ass Climber...

NOTHING is worse than CrystalWario's dreaded Wario World + Subcon hack!

NOW that's rock-bottom!

http://myweb.tiscali.co.uk/stevemitchell/wario/wario-index.htm

Go to that site and download one of the versions and behold THE worst SMW hack in history!

...

Also, whoever said Ninji Saga was bad is well... I won't say it since I'm not into flamming people.

I tried a SMB hack that had Mystery Science Theatre 3000 theme. It was pretty bad cause they didn't change many of the sprites. Mostly all they did with mario was remove the moustache. I can tell it was one of the guys 1st hacks.

Boooo! My "SMB2 Christmas Edition" is featured on that site. I didn't think it was that bad, and I never intended it to be more than a seasonal novelty...

Oh, yes...yes indeed. Don't forget he faked screenshots and stole other people's work, and quite possibly registered another account for the sole purpose of praising his own trash (it was never totally confirmed, but both members disappeared around the same time). A true loser in every sense of the word.

Hmmm, I remember this thread from last year, back when I only lurked and wasn't registered. The topic was similar, but it was in the SMW section. It didn't end up too good though...

Hmm, it's actually one of the better hacks on the page anyway.

He would be so shocked by your SMW hack. Why not send it to him? xD
