Should have just kept the original site up and running or at just say you were moving to a new server/host for future hacks. Waste of time, attention and internet space.

That's something you'd have to take up with Nightcrawler; this new site is made without Nightcrawler's involvement

Check out some of my websites!

This is the better RHDN.

Due to complications (don't remember the details), RHDN is being discontinued. Thankfully, its database has been archived/put up for use, so various sites are scrambling to become the successor. This site is one of those, and imho the nicest looking of the contenders.

I do hope there's just one successor when all's said and done, it'd be a pain to have to check for and update or submit hacks on multiple predominant romhacking sites that host them instead of just one like it was with RHDN. Last I checked the RHDN Discord staff was going to attempt to make a new site also, but neoromhacking already seems a fair bit ahead of it... If both sites decide to not concede though I suppose we will have more than one!

Well there is a rom hack site just for Super Mario World hacks. It's got a handful of Yoshi's Island rom hacks on it but it's like 98% Super Mario World stuff. There's some fun hacks there that aren't on this site. It's been around a long time too. My personal favorite one is "Mario is Missing Done Right".

There is a lot of ROM hacking sites for specific games or franchises already, so I wouldn't worry about it. I think people who like a general "one stop shop" style site like RHDN was just don't want to have to go to both neoromhacking.net and romhack.ing to find new stuff.

Having a general site for "hacks" also helps with all those games that don't have a thriving ROM hacking community, all those myriad translations of RPGs with no place to go on the anglophone internet because before said translation only a handful people have ever heard of the game.

Now do I hope we only end up with one generalist site, because having to search through a number of them to find a ROM is a pain, but we can't expect the one true successor to be apparent quite yet. As much as I hope it will be NeoRHDN rather than RHDI - some whitespace is welcome on a website, but being able to see only two (2) games listed on the search screen at once, on desktop (!), is not.

I have to remind that while there are many games with a thriving romhacking community, there's equally as many games that aren't so lucky. Which is why it is especially important that there's a main hub that can give attention to these less fortunate games, because they have their own dedicated fanbase, no matter how big or how small they are.

I hope to see this site thrive, and carry on the legacy inherited from RHDN.
