Super Froggio Bros 3 (SMB3 hack puts frog suits in ? boxes all over the game)

https://www.romhacking.net/hacks/9932/

that's my latest Super Mario Bros 3 hack, Super Froggio Bros, which places frogsuit powerups in the normal ? boxes all over the game. this is a simple concept, but somehow nobody else has done it until now, as far as i know. and that may be because it's a lot more complicated under the hood to do it, than you might think. not super complicated, but definitely not a simple thing to do.

this follows my other similar hacks-

Super Hammer Bros 3- same idea but with hammer suits all over the game. this is my first one, and there are two versions. version A is 'purist' (like the current frog suit hack), and version B does a few things like bringing in the Japanese version's damage to mario system (and accompanying suit flying off effect), making the game slightly harder, while on the other hand buffing the suit a bit by allowing the hammers to damage koopa kids (they can't, normally), and a few other changes.

Super Tanooki Bros 3- again, same idea but with tanooki suits. version A again is the purist version, just adds the suits, no other changes, and for version B i got a lot more creative by buffing the suit in various ways (you can smash bricks from above by landing on them with statue, statue comes out quicker, tail dispels enemy projectiles, kills more enemies, you can use tail under water, and other changes outlined in the .txt). i think version B of this one is my favorite hack and actually makes the tanooki suit fun enough to compete with hammer suit, whereas normally i think tanooki suit is fairly boring.

last and least is Smallio Bros version A, which simply removes all powerups (except starman), leaving mario permanently small. other people have made hacks accomplishing this but i wanted to do my own and i think mine is maybe the most elegant of all that i saw. i have versions B and C of 'smallio bros' hacks mostly done and they are way more interesting and creative, i'll have to finish them up some day and put them out.

if you check any of these things out and like them, consider leaving a review at romhacking.net if you have an account, it kind of bums me out that none of my hacks get any comments there. you don't have to though!

Request I cannot find a Decrypted version of Pokémon Alpha Sapphire for the life of me

I've looked in the megathread, the only link is Myrient which went out of commission months ago. I've looked all over the web too. Archive.org brought me to an encrypted link which doesn't work on emulator. Does anybody have an encrypted copy I can borrow?

Request I lost all my emulator data for the games after resetting my laptop. I took out the memcard files from my emulator but even putting it in the folder resulted in nothing (switched from Windows to Linux so that might have something to do with it).

Question Europe just decided to include reddit on the very online platform category by DSA rules. So now the stricted set of those rules apply.

This reddit could be nuked by the DSA, do we have an alternative forum, just in case?.

Hi! I'm looking for mahjong roms or portmaster games that I can play on a miyoo or trimUI device. Ideally in English! Most of what I've found are in Japanese/richii style. I grew up playing Taiwanese style but open to learning others for the sake of portable fun.

Ps1 games not extracting?

0 Upvotes

Hello,

I was trying to extract some ps1 roms from vimms lair to my micro sd card, but in the process of extracting them, it popped up with an error message, saying that the name was "too long or invalid." What does this mean and how do I succesfully extract those files?

Emulating makes you realize some of your childhood classics actually suck

466 Upvotes

One of my favorite memories is playing Yu-Gi-Oh: The Beginning of Destiny. I remember all these cool moments and beating Zane Truesdale, one of the toughest players in the game. I recently downloaded it to play again and it's so boring. There's a reason I remembered all these cool moments. They were the only interesting parts. You have to battle the same people over and over and over. The game is so tedious. Makes me wonder if any of my other childhood classics were terrible the whole time. Have any of you experienced this letdown before?

Before anyone says check the megathread, i did read through it and it was a bit overwhelming and confusing cuz this is the first time I've ever done any of this. I'm trying to get the fruit ninja kinect game to enjoy with a few friends but can't seem to find it on axekin and have no idea where else I can find just the game instead of a dump which is a terabyte in size
