I don't think it would hurt to have a thread like this. In fact, I believe this board, or the previous one before it, had a thread like this. This is good for people who have ideas and want to share them, to help others with their hacks, and/or get criticism on whether an idea is good or not, to decide whether it is good for their hack.
I want to start this off by asking you guys if this is a good idea: I've been watching The Dark Knight lately, and the movie was really good, and I was thinking, would a new series for Mega Man be good? A Mega Man series that is more serious, and goes in a different direction? For example: Hack 1 - Mega Man Begins How Rock became Mega Man. The final boss is Wily. Hack 2 - The Blue Bomber Mega Man has been fighting for a while. An all-new villain is introduced. None of this constant Wily crap that has been going on, even though that is what makes Mega Man great, as I said, I could take Mega Man in a different new direction. If you guys think a new Mega Man series like this is a good idea, please let me know, and I will consider it. And please, if you have any ideas you'd like to offer others, to help them with their hacks, and/or try to get ideas for your hacks, feel free to post. Ideas are what make new innovative hacks possible. ____________________ My YouTube Channel |

I'll throw in my two cents, a MM hack that'll use the robots from MM5 for the GB. Making the hack like sorta a sequel to the game, I'm not sure if MM5 or MM6 would be better to use. ^^'

Googie and I have been talking about hack ideas lately. I asked him if he could come up with a cool idea for SMB3, and he said, how about using the Tanooki Suit as a magnet, and when the enemies touch Mario, they die. I thought that was a great idea, so I got to work on it.
And thus, Magnet Mario was born! Oh, and by the way, the reason the giant ? block goes is because it is treated like an enemy. If you look in SMB3 Workshop, you'll know what I'm talking about. ____________________ My YouTube Channel |

That's neat, I'll have to think up another power up for Mario, right now I gotta sleep. ^^' ____________________ My Linktree |

I actually wouldn't mind a crazy-ass series of remakes of the Rockman World games! =)
1) Mega Man World: Dr. Wily's Revenge 2) Mega Man World 2: Mysterious Time Traveler 3) Mega Man World 3: Power from the Earth 4) Mega Man World 4: The Robot Heist 5) Mega Man World 5: Menace from Beyond And, there's one I always wanted to do: 6) Mega Man 3: Story of the Blues An extensive hack featuring Protoman's side of the story. |

Posted by koala_knight This one would especially be awesome. It's definitely in my top 3 favorite Mega Man games. If it were on the NES it would probably be my overall favorite. |

Ya know, what would be beyond awesome is if we knew enough about MMX to create remakes of the 8-bit games for SNES! |

Maybe the thread should be renamed to Megaman Hacks Ideas... |

Har Har. That's just the current trend in rom hacking, kind of like how everyone was making SMB3 hacks for a while. |

Speaking of RPG games I always wanted to hack Final Fantasy 1, with all the notes and utilities available, I should really look at them again. The story is in my head, I was aiming for a dark comedy route. ^__^' ____________________ My Linktree |

I, being the lover of retro & remakes would love to bring FF1 up to the standards of the Anniversary remakes. There are a lot of things I'd love to tweak FF1, 2, & 3.
Speaking of Final Fantasy... I'd love to add all the upgrades they gave to the GBA & DS versions of 4, 5, & 6 to the SNES versions & add some more stuff! I'd like to also finish my SMW hack. So much to do! Sometimes I wish I was a vampire! V_V |

Recently i was thinking of a NES Megaman hack which makes you play Zero from the X series, not just graphics-wise, but gameplay-wise. You can wall-jump, double-jump, and as you defeat bosses you get "moves" similar to those in MMX 4-8.
Megaman 2's engine could be the coolest to use as base, with or without level remakes. |

I like that idea, it's pretty hot. Someone was trying to do a MM2 hack but with MMX, too bad that hack died a silent death...
Whoever the author was, was on the right track. Those edited sprites look pretty smooth. ____________________ My Linktree |

Believe it or not, that was my hack. Not much of a hack as you can see. I attempted to port the MMXtreme X sprites over, but stopped when I couldn't fit the sprites into Megaman's sprite space. The Xtreme sprites required more space than there already was. I think I did this back when TEK was around. ____________________ My YouTube Channel |

I never hacked Metroid before. But I downloaded it, and I was looking through it. What kind of ASM hacks can be done to it? I couldn't think of anything to be honest with you, but then again, I never really played through the whole game. I couldn't tell you how long the game is. I'm sure someone already removed those bubble doors that you have to shoot open. ____________________ My YouTube Channel |

A map system would rock. |

Posted by koala_knight It does, cause it's been done years ago. I think Parasyte made it? Shoot me an e-mail and I'll send it to you... I'd love to see a Battle City hack that when you get the shield, and an enemy hits you, it reflects back to them killing'em. ^_______^' LO: An idea for a Metroid hack, lemme see... How about taking an item from one of the later games, like when Samus gets that jiggamabobba that after a few seconds, she flashes and whatever enemy she touches dies. ^^' Now that you mentioned Tek, I remember a thread you made when I used to lurk the forums in 2003. ____________________ My Linktree |

Hells yeah! I'll definitely take that offer!
As for an ASM hack, how about adding more weapons or maybe even the wepon combo system that SM(M3) had? |

Quoting elixirnova from romhacking.net:
"Re: MegaMan X3 Editor I have lots of the editor working and an incredible amount of data. I will probably not be continuing until next semester. If anyone wants any data/source code just ask, feel free to work on it! I too want to see an X editor which is why I'm doing it!! But not for a couple months. E-mail me if you want anything as I do not visit here often right now." Not really an idea, but the MegaMan fans on this board might be interested in helping this guy.
