Have you ever been playing your favourite Gameboy games but wish they were better in some way? Wish Castlevanina was a bit faster? Wish the Mario Land games were in colour? Then you need… Rom Hacks!

A Rom Hack is basically a tweak to an existing game that has been made by a fan and uploaded online. They can be anything, from simple sprite swaps, to more complex hacks like full colour implementations, or in the case of the Pokemon games, entirely new games made using the original assets!
