| Dead? Definitely. Never going to come back either. On a side note though: -SMILE will have its next release this coming Tuesday (my site will be 100% by then as well) -On Tuesday, I will be including screenshots and updates of Metroid Alliance (in which I have started what will be the second most important ASM in the hack) -On Tuesday, I will also be revealing screenshots of a new editor I have started for an NES game (started the editor because the game's too hard and I wanted to cheat better... if a compression guru wants to crack the level compression, let me know and I'll give you offsets and the name of the game... if not, I have a "retired" hacker who will help me with this) -By Tuesday, I am looking into how Harvest Moon reads its text, so I can fix and release the "new" text editor soon after . . . The "new" text editor (made 2 years ago) moves the pointers, allowing for "endless" text. |

I can't believe it's not butter.  Err... I mean it's not gonna die anytime soon (unless we all die for some weird reason). |

I think the scene is not dead yet, but over time, rom hacking will be replaced with other things. Probally similar things. Either way, as long as computers (and therefore games) are still around, we will always be hacking something. But I think that specifily, the hacking of "roms" will die down after a while, but not for the worse. We have to move on with other things  ...Another crazy theory  |

| I chose "...you shouldn't worry" because ROM hacking is one of the best ways to show your creativity in classic video games. However, like all fads/hobbies, it will someday die. I myself am not a good hacker, probably because of the lack of ideas, but i am a huge fan of classic video games, like many others out there are. On another note, I think DahrkDaiz has changed the ROM hacking world single-handedly. What if there were 10 of him? |

| Dead? Naw. ROM hacking won't be the same in a feww years, by then if you can't hack a 3D game, you might get laughed off the board, but ROM hacking won't die. Someone will always be coming up with a new ASM hack, new features, new something-or-other that will make other people do the same, and eventually ROM hacking might stagnate, but it will never die, so long as there is someone who continues to believe. | |||

| I sincerely doubt they'll get anywhere near the level of accuracy in modern NES emulators. From their past examples, Nintendo seems to slap together emulators which are just accurate enough to their target game(s) running. Well if all I had to do was emulate one game I might do that too... it might be more efficient worrying about getting one game running rather than 2000 other games. |
