Its called "Metroid Incursion"

Totally new layout, new graphics, and a "Plus" version that adds a pause map (scrolls around when pressing pause with D-pad) as well as some weapon alterations.

(You need a copy of the original game rom and an IPS patcher)

Here is some screenshots:







Although I think it turned out really good and have received a lot of positive feedback what I am really excited about right now is my second hack:

Metroid Rogue Dawn

This hack is really going to push things further:

Its going to have even more extensive game engine modifications.

Its about 40% done at this point, I want to have it wrapped up this year.

You put a map in Metroid? Blasphemy!

These look pretty crazy and impressive.


Blame it on Microsoft, God does.

That is quite a graphical improvement over stock Metroid.

It's kinda got a Ghosts N Goblins vibe to it.

I love that game. Definitely one of my top 3 favorite NES games. If there was a decent editor for it I would make a hack for that one too. Unfortunately the existing editors are fairly old and limited. One is DOS based, the other was made for Windows 95 or 98 I think, I couldn't get it to work.

My latest Metroid hack is going to have new music also. Pretty much a whole new metroid experience. The story line is set as a prequel, and attempts to explain how the Metroids ended up on planet Zebes under the control of the Mother Brain and pirates. You play as a villain and basically start all of the problems related to the Metroids. The storyline goes deeper but you'll have to play the game to learn the details. I'm pretty far along in its development, I should be done in November or December.
