ROMhacking

ROMhacking.net is the innovative new community site that aggressively aims to bring several different areas of the community together. First, it serves as a successor to, and merges content from, ROMhacking.com and The Whirlpool. Besides being a simple archive site, ROMhacking.net’s purpose is to bring the ROMhacking Community to the next level. We want to put the word ‘community’ back into the ROMhacking community.The ROMhacking community in recent years has been scattered and stagnant. It is our goal and hope to bring people back together and breathe some new life into the community. We want to encourage new people to join the hobby and make it easier than ever for them to do so.It is also our goal to fill the roll of a one stop news source for the community. We strive to overcome the problems and succeed where other similar sites have failed. One unique way we hope to do that is through putting the power in your hands.We hope to allow the community members to submit their own work, maintain the database, and make the news updates themselves. Our long term goal is to have a community run site that does not rely on the bottleneck of staff to do everything, which can often lead to a stale and inactive site. The full system for this transition will take time, but it has already begun. This is a site built for the community and it will endure ongoing changes based on your feedback to provide the services you need.ROMhacking.net Site Goals and FeaturesProvide a central hub to encourage a new, refreshed, ROMhacking community.Eliminate problems other sites have had that cause stagnation or site ‘death’.Provide a comprehensive document, utility, and translation archive.Expand that archive to include whatever the community necessitates.Put the power into the community member’s hands for site operation and maintenance.Provide an active, central, one stop news source for the community.Provide a community database to tell you who is out there, who is active, and what they’re doing!These are just some of the goals and features that you will find here on this site.
